In Response To: meet results (dennis)

Wilks coefficient for 231 lbs is 0.5980
1480 lbs = 671.3 kilos
so your Wilks Total is 401.45

Schwartz Coefficient for 231 lbs is 0.5441
So your Schwartz Total is 365.27

For the 181 pound lifter
Wilks Coefficient is 0.6719
1380 lbs = 625.96 kilos
so his Wilks Total is 405.32

Schwartz coefficient for 181 is 0.6214
So his Schwartz Total is 388.97

The USAPL adopted the IPF rules in 2003 and now uses the Wilks formula not the Schwartz or Malone formulas.

I can't comment on the refereeing because I wasn't there. But I can say, given the numbers you quoted, you came in behind the 181 lifter using both the Wilks and Schwartz formulas. Please note that the Malone formula was developed for Women.
