I am new to this federation and I am really excited about it. I have wanted a federation that only allows RAW lifting.
I am assuming that when this federation says that it is 100% RAW, that it doesn't allow equipment and doesn't allow drugs (by the standards of the World Anti Doping Agency). Because in many people's interpretation of RAW lifting that it what it is defined as. RAW=unassisted lifting. Wouldn't drugs be considered assisted in a way.
I normally lift in a very large drug free PL federation (I don't like dropping feds in forums) and I think it is only fair to compete with others who are legitimate and not cheaters. I know I just stepped on someones toes, because drug users know they can't stand with the drug free lifters if the drug users weren't on the juice. Cry about it if you want.
Questions:
Are there drug free and untested divisions in 100% RAW? Or do they throw everyone together and let the mustangs (drug free lifters) race the thoroughbreds (drug users)?
