" As USPF American Records Chairperson, my main goals are to assure lifters receive the recognition they deserve for their hard work and efforts in powerlifting; accurately maintain, update and keep current the USPF Records while allowing access to all for viewing; and share photos/memories of those moments of achievement."

We are saddened (and shocked) by the passing of a legacy Legend and one of our USPF Board of Directors Members, Rickey Dale Crain. Rickey was an inductee in both the USPF Hall of Fame and York Barbell Hall of Fame. Powerlifting USA magazine had labeled him the G.O.A.T. powerlifter in the 165 lb bwt class. He was a 5-time World Champion, multiple National Champion, and made/broke numerous World, National, and State Records. Rickey was still active in ALL aspects of powerlifting. Our sincerest condolences to his family.
