Welcome to the NZ Powerlifting Federation

Powerlifting is a strength sport, consisting of three events: the squat, the bench press, and the deadlift. Powerlifting resembles the sport of weightlifting, as both disciplines involve lifting heavy weights in three attempts. In the site you will find many things of use for the New Zealand powerlifter.
