I just wanted ONE pic of my deadlift that I worked so hard on all year hahaha! Still hoping it shows up somehow. In the meantime, I’ll give this 91kg heavyyy ball a little space on my feed 😂!

I absolutely loved being part of it this year. It was really special, fun, extremely professional, and organized. 100/100 🫶🏻

Live a life you will remember…

If you told me 3 years ago that I’ll could do this, I would say “never”.

I can’t be more grateful 🥹

🇧🇷 Não sabia que ainda sabia chorar rs. Fiquei tão dura comigo mesma nos últimos meses que algo tampava meus olhos, não conseguia enxergar o quanto estava evoluindo. Eu sou extremamente rígida, eu me cobro insanamente e eu me afundo a cada vez que não consigo algo.

Mas não é assim, simplesmente não é rápido assim. Demanda muita paixão, constância, tempo, treino, dedicação e muita vontade de viver esse estilo de vida.

Eu sofro com o que pensam, sofro com o que falam, e além de tudo crio uma imagem distorcida da realidade aqui. Eu tento mostrar tudo de bom, tudo que dá certo. É a maneira que criei pra me “proteger”.

A verdade é que no caminho muita coisa também não dá certo. Eu não me sinto melhor que ninguém, eu estou buscando o melhor pra mim mesma.

Eu não quero ser melhor que alguém diretamente, eu quero ser boa o suficiente pra mim.

E não isso NÃO é arrogância. Não é arrogância compartilhar o quanto longe estou indo e o quanto de coisas consigo fazer.

Porque ninguém sabe por trás disso tudo, quantos fins de semana sem descanso, quantas refeições corretas, quantas escolhas difíceis, quantos dias longe de amigos e família, quantas batalhas foram vividas para “chegar lá”.

Que Deus continue me dando forças pra seguir o meu caminho da maneira que acredito ser a correta. taken in Dane County Coliseum by @_bamattos

Positive affirmations with no substance / data just doesn’t work for me. I need data. When I feel apprehensive, I remind myself of the times I’ve experienced a similar feeling, and then succeeded with the task in hand. This approach has worked incredibly well for the mindset of Brazilian client Barbara to use when she feels self doubt e.g.

“Remember PSL u82s throw event when you felt nervous and went and won the event? You’ve got this”

Barbara said in her feedback to this lift: “I thought about what you told me - to remind myself that I know how to do this and that I can do it - and after that I was able to find some consistency! “

Barbara is looking to attempt to take both the Open weight Log and Axle Brazilian record in October, and is determined to be tough to keep out of the final day of OSG World’s.

21 months of coaching so far, I feel like we’re just getting started, great that we’ve been able to work a couple of off-seasons together where we’ve addressed her long term back pain (which has resulted in in-season PB’s on squat and deadlift (500lbs raw dead was a highlight), and also used the off-season to build the foundations of split jerk skill / positional strength / confidence, so in-season she’s been milking the overhead PB’s too.

Great example of what’s possible coaching a client in her second language, living in a different time zone.

DM split jerk if you’d like to know my 3 top drills for building the missing piece of split jerk positional strength for a Strongman

Even if I never feel like I’m good enough, I’ll keep working on my mindset and learning to celebrate my wins. It’s not ego, it’s passion 🫶🏻

Será que serei capaz de oficializar essa carga dia 17/10 no @overheadpressrecords ? 🔥 👀

I hope @josh_lancaster_strongman_u80kg doesn’t give up on me after this 🫣😂. But it’s not my fault he’s making me so strong!

Depois de uns anos, ontem o @thiagoulhoa me destravou uma coisa nova sobre o Clean! Estamos em constante aprendizado.
