Powerlifting is a strength sport that consists of three lifts at maximal weight- squats, bench press, and deadlifts. Founded in 2007, NUPL has both men's and women's teams, and we strive to promote an environment where all of our teammates can grow stronger, create friendships, and compete against some of the best collegiate powerlifting teams in the country.We train raw in the fall semester and train equipped in the spring semester. Tryouts occur once a year in the beginning of Fall semester, and membership is a commitment for the full school year.We hold a competitive tryout and are looking for athletes that are eager to learn, coachable, ask good questions, and contribute positively to the team environment! You do not have to be the strongest in the room to make the team.
