Hello my strong strong friends! In today’s video I’m going over exactly what I’ll be bringing to my meet on Friday in hopes that this video will assist you in packing for your very own meet.
Keep in mind I’m competing in raw, USAPL, so some of the requirements may change based on your federation.
I hope you find this helpful!

Hi, I'm Meg. I make videos for my #strongstrongfriends.
I'm an ISSA Certified Personal Trainer, USA Powerlifting Club Coach, and Nationally competitive powerlifter.
I help lifters from beginner to advanced get comfortable with a barbell, and build strength and muscles with powerlifting style training. My channel is full of videos that explore what it means to be a strength athlete, and what it means to use strength in every day life, or other avenues of athletics or fitness. Join me in my series playlists when I Train Like a Pro, Train Like a Fitspo, or catch a quick lifting tip or fitness advice with 5 minute Friday.
You can find my coaching team here: www.strongstrongfriends.com

Hi Meg! I just started following you. I am a 51 year old powerlifter. I competed in my first sactioned meet last June. I learned all the things I didn't know. I hired a coach immediately after. I've been working out with him, changing my form, and building stronger lifts. I am in meet week now! I compete Saturday in my second sactioned meet. I should be able to break a state record in the squat and tie a state record in the bench. I am shooting for a +11 pound PR in the deadlift. You are inspirational tome. I know you said you were not feeling well after nationals. I just want to say, you rock! Pick yourself up and get back in the gym. Stay strong!

Loooove this video! I just had my first meet this past July (followed your programming!) and watched your previous packing video while I was preparing. It was super helpful as well! Thankfully I didn’t miss anything and actually had everything (besides spitting implements lol) in this video! Also, depending on federations, lifters may need to bring proof of drug testing information certifications. In the OPA (Ontario, Canada) you need this!

Off topic: Thank you again Megan. This is my dream. To be as strong as i can and to compete. So i start monday with your amazing program "Uplifted". (I would have started a week ago, but some ex bf drama happend. That's life right ). I followed your advice and went to a powerlifting gym. So amazing (couldn't afford ). So with your program and my effort to stay consistent , i know i won't be training alone. Btw: amazing program. Video's are excellent. Not only you are a gorgeous woman/coach but your personality shines through. Don't be mad, i have my notebook ready LOL. Thank you dear, for creating an excellent programm for everyone. For woman and men all over the world who don't have much to spend. (Thanks to body building.com too ). Wishing you all the best. Thanks again strong strong friend. Hi from the Netherlands.

Hey Meg, as a big fan & supporter, I do have to say I find it quite offensive when people use the term "look homeless" to describe dingy/not put-together. I think there are better ways to phrase it and as someone with a growing platform, you do have influence over how others take on phrases as well. "Look homeless" is something I hear far too often and someone once pointed it out to me when I used it, so I try to do the same. Not all people experiencing homelessness are dirty. Thanks, queen - good luck at the meet!
