My youngest has been putting the time in the gym religiously. I think this could become serious, serious enough to compete. The youth numbers in the RPS is within reach for him to do well but truthfully, I'm not sure I could take him competing. Youth provides you with some forgiveness that is not afforded to older advanced lifters but the risk of injury, serious injury looms in my mind.
It's always okay for the father to take a calculated risk but not for his children. It does make me think back to my mom and her watching my first PLing meet. She actually asked why I had to do more weight every time; not understanding the 3 attempt process.
Any of you guys or gals been down this road or about to face it?
