Copied from another forum i frequent:

Max Weight From Floor To Overhead With One Arm!

1. Weight must start on the floor
2. The rep must finish with the weight locked out overhead
3. You can Snatch, Clean + Press, Bent Press, Push Press, TGU, whatever you like.
4. For the lift to count you have to do it with your left and right arm.
5. Post the weight lifted and % bodyweight
6. Extra MAN points maybe awarded for implement used: DB, BB, KB with chains or plates attached, sandbag if you're brave.
7. Do not injure yourself.
8. Film it if you can

Nice one bud.

There's actually an official BWLA comp running ATM - "Lift of the Quarter"

Max Left Hand Barbell Clean and Jerk

Its a postal event, with rankings according to percentage of BW lifted.

Will post up details very shortly.

Maximise your training and minimise the bullshit.

Nice lift. Would have failed the BWLA challenge though, the bar cannot touch the opposite shoulder (I did the lift the same way originally and was told off

To be honest, the BWLA was a postal challenge so I am sure most entrants did it the way you did. That was how I approached it, it was Brian H that disputed my lift.
