Meet-by-meet results and career bests for one powerlifter.

Tool description as the model sees it

Competition history of one powerlifter from the OpenPowerlifting results database: every meet entered (most recent first) with federation, event, equipment, division, bodyweight and weight class, best squat/bench/deadlift, total, place and Dots/Wilks/Goodlift points, plus career bests. Pass name as shown in results (e.g. “Ray Williams”; case-insensitive, exact name). Lifters who share a name are disambiguated in the data as “Name #1”, “Name #2”: a name that matches several lifters returns their candidates (name, country, entry count, years, best total) instead of mixing them — pass the exact “Name #N”. equipment (Raw, Wraps, Single-ply, Multi-ply, Unlimited, Straps) narrows the history and the bests. Rows page with limit/offset and report truncated/total_matching. An unknown name returns found:false with data_as_of, never an empty list. Weights are in kilograms.
