Para powerlifting is an adaptation of the sport of powerlifting for athletes with disabilities. The only discipline in Paralympic powerlifting is the bench press. The sport is governed by the International Paralympic Committee (World Para Powerlifting) and is open to anyone with a minimum level of disability who can extend their arms within 20° of full extension during a lift. Powerlifting has been competed at the Summer Paralympics since 1984. Major competitions include the Paralympic Games and the biennial World Para Powerlifting Championships, and well as the annual World Cup, triennial regional Championships, and Grand Prix events.
