#stpatricksday☘️ All-time deadlift PR 🙏🏽… even after missing the 2nd rep 🙃!! I know I had the gas for the 2nd, but I got excited and rushed the pull when I wasn’t in a good position. Still though… how many 75kg guys are lifting this, let alone beltless at 42-years-old 🤔? When I’m feeling healthy and blessed… I don’t need luck 🤙🏽. 9-ish weeks-out from @powerlifting.united Nationals 👀…

Mila went ahead and had herself her first perfect 9/9 meet at the @usapowerlifting WA State Championship 😳. She hit a sudden growth spurt right before the meet, which meant she could no longer compete in the Youth 2 30kg class and couldn’t go after the American records she’s been training for, and she had to bump up to the 35kg weight class. Some tears were shed the night before, but she decided she’s in the sport for the long run and wants to be a world champion someday, regardless of weight class and records. And it looks like the few extra kilos gave her a little bit of a boost because she confidently hit all of her 3rd attempts for meet PR’s and she set 8 more WA State Records in her new class 🥰.

The end of a decade…

40, I welcome you with as much grace and understanding as I can muster for this new era of my life.

I wasn’t ready for you. Truthfully, I’m still not. But I welcome the challenge of accepting where I am, embracing what’s ahead, and learning to find beauty in this next chapter. by @aaron.danger

Squats have never felt stronger 💯. I’ve never repped this kind of weight as casually or as confidently 🙏🏽. One more big single and that’s a wrap on squats for this prep 🤝🏽.

Worked in some paused deads 3.5 weeks out from the Power Surge Pro to get more comfortable with pulling mixed-grip again 👍🏽. Easily pulled a 3-rep PR, so I guess you could say it’s going well 😎. Always grateful to get to train at @dungeonstrength_rx with the legend @higamonster whenever I can 🙏🏽.

It’s only week 2 of the peaking phase and I’ve already matched my ATPR and at a much lower RPE ☺️. Def happy to feel a lot more confident and comfortable with 600 on my back 🙏🏽. It’s time to go beyond 🤝🏽… 4 weeks out 👊🏽!!

@juggernauttraining Peaking Block Week 1 is in the books, and while I had to make a few last minute adjustments, I’d say everything is feeling back on schedule 🙏🏽. Def the highest week 1 total to start a peak that I’ve ever had. Openers maybe 🤷🏻‍♂️? I guess we’ll see…

Phew… this may be the longest grinder I’ve ever had on bench 😅. It may have taken an ugly 8 second ride to lock out that third rep 😮‍💨, but I wasn’t about to let some heavy side quest pulls derail my recent bench progress 🤝🏽. I’m bringing everything with me to Chicago 💯.

A few months ago, this was my all-time squat PR. Now it’s a 3RM. Maybe soon enough it’ll be an opener 👀. I still have 7 more weeks to put in work and at 42 years old, I still feel like I’m just getting started 🙏🏽.
