Every competition has rules and regulations keeping in mind the participants have to take part in it. Some competitions are only for women and some only for men. It is impossible for the other to participate in both the competitions. But these days a powerlifting competition is in discussion in which a man took part. The surprising thing was that the competition was of women (Man wins in women’s tournament). Then how was this possible? Let us tell you the whole thing.
According to the report of Audity Central News website, Avi Silverberg is the head coach of Team Canada Powerlifting. He is a man but recently he participated in the Lethbridge Heroes Classic Women’s tournament to be held in Alberta (Alberta, Canada), which is a women’s tournament. Actually, there is a rule of the tournament, that the participants should join the category of the gender with which they identify themselves. He doesn’t need to reveal his personal details.
Men’s win in women’s category
AV took advantage of this thing. He looked stronger than other women, had grown a beard and had not undergone any hormone change therapy. He reached the competition, got his name registered and told everyone that he is a woman. Then he climbed on the stage and surprised everyone by bench pressing 370 pounds in front of everyone. She broke the record of 275 pounds set by the female of the competition in one stroke.
Female winners are also transgender
He has been criticized since breaking the record. The Independent Council on Women’s Sports has said in its statement that it does not matter how Evie sees herself. It is clear that they are not made for women’s tournaments, and neither are any men who come for the purpose of participating. Former champion Annie Andres, who bench pressed 275 pounds, said that Evie is a coward and did it on purpose. However, Annie herself is a transgender.
