About Wraps Total Records
The wraps total has been one of the most closely watched record categories in competitive powerlifting. The total is the sum of a lifter's best successful squat, bench press, and deadlift attempts. It represents the most complete measure of overall powerlifting strength and is what ultimately determines a lifter's placing in competition.
Wraps-division records highlight the impact that knee wraps can have on performance. Modern competition wraps are engineered for maximum energy storage and can contribute meaningfully to a lifter's squat and total. The wraps division bridges the gap between raw and fully equipped lifting, offering a middle ground for lifters who want additional knee support without wearing a full squat suit.
