2017 World Powerlifting Championships

2017 World Championships

2017-07-23

It's been just over a month since I competed at the IPF World Powerlifting Championships. A month already!!! It will definitely go down as one of the best experiences and trips of my life.

Below are the videos of all of my lifts on the day. I came 10th, so was super happy to reach the top 10 in the world in the 52kg class! I made 8/9 lifts, after being red lighted for my first squat attempt.

I was disappointed with my squats, but super proud of myself for pulling myself together and getting the rest of my lifts. I definitely gave it my all for my bench and deadlifts. I didn't have another gram left in either of those two!

I'm now getting back in to a regular training routine and am as motivated as ever to improve. Next competition will be the National Championships in October, so all my focus is now set on that!
