EXALT GYM presents: the night of the living dead: professional deadlift competition: May 2011

WHAT IS THE NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD ?

The Night of the Living Dead began for several reasons. First, the country needed a professional deadlift only meet as there was not one at its inception. Second, the area had forgotten its rich deadlifting history and needed an event to remind the people of their iron-laden past. Third, I had just started a high school powerlifting team and we had no money. The NOTLD allowed us to raise money for the kids and to bring in some of the greatest deadlifters on earth to inspire them to new heights.

What began as a small meet with 10 lifters has turned into the most exciting deadlift meet in the world attracting the premier deadlifters from America and even a few from overseas.

IF YOU WANT IT, ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SHOW UP AND TAKE IT

The lifter that leaves the 2011 NOTLD with the best Wilks formula coefficient combined score from all of the Ultimate Powerlifter CHampionships shows will recive this $1500 Ulimate Powerlifting Championship belt for being the world's ultimate deadlifter. There are only 4 of these in the world: 1 for the best male full meet lifter, 1 for the best female full meet lifter, 1 for the best bencher, and of course this one for the ULTIMATE DEADLIFTER which will be awarded at the NOTLD.

The winner will get this belt strapped around their waist in 60 million homes on Fox Sports Net on Extreme Power TV plus all of the pride of being considered the greatest deadlifter in the world. The winner is expected to return to the UPC series on Xtreme Power TV and defend that title in 2012 when XPTV plan to again award it at the belt at the culmination of the series at the NOTLD.
