raw powerlifting is definately making a comeback! personally i dont respect equipped lifters, it looks stupid and has put a dent in the sport, you have guys walking around saying they bench 450 and regular people think they really benched 450, what they never tell them is that it was equipped, in my gym a guy benches 225 raw for about 3 reps and just benches 400 equipped, i think its stupid, and from my personal experience others who have played sports like football or wrestling always wanna still compete in something after high school because after playing sports for so many years competitiveness is in your blood, also alot of the kids who never started in their sports always tend to gravitate towards letting themself go immediately after high school becuz they were never fueled by competitiveness
