What a surreal day! Definitely not my final form. Squatted an unofficial Canadian national record, benched, and hit a PR in deadlift. No excuses for bench—it just wasn’t quite there that day, so we scratched my 3rd attempt to save some energy for deadlifts.

This was the first time in almost 8 years that I’ve been able to fully dedicate myself to both training and nutrition, and it was a game changer. We got serious again in April/May, and in just 5 months, I added 25kg to my meet total. There’s still plenty of room for growth in all three lifts, and I’m eyeing 800+ at nationals 😈🔥. Huge thanks to @alfred.reformance , who’s had more patience working with me over the last 7 years than Mother Teresa herself. Now, we can finally keep this momentum going, and I can truly be an athlete again.

Big shoutout to @a7canada for gearing me up before the competition. Their equipment and clothing aren’t just stylish—they’re also super practical (and I’m not just saying that). I got the A7 Pal belt just 6 days before the meet, and it felt amazing—better than my SBD belt, in my opinion.

And @ryankolesarpowerlifting, my day one training partner, having you handle me at this meet brought back some serious nostalgia.

Thank you @movement.fp for letting me compete! The atmosphere was incredible, and the experience was top-notch, not just for me but for all the lifters.

I managed to receive the @a7canada Script collection in Stealth a few weeks back, and I’m excited that we’re getting into some cooler weather for me to feel super stylish and warm coming to and from the gym! Also black is slimming 😅😂. 

5 weeks out from the @movement.fp powerlifting meet where I intend to put all this stealth to good use 🥷.

The jacket is very comfortable and the pants actually fit my legs nicely (unlike most pants). More of their gear to follow in some future posts 👀.

10 flights, 5 countries, 4 provinces, and so many memories we’ll never forget 💙

A little crazy? Yes 😅 Worth it? 1000% 🥹

Some of our biggest takeaways:

🍝 Europe is SO baby-friendly — babies at dinner partying past midnight like it’s no big deal (but its game over if someone thinks the baby is cold 😂)

🛞 Brought a stroller to Europe… barely used it. Baby wearing for the win! The streets and little shops just aren’t made for big strollers and wish we had just left it at home (one less thing our Uber drivers could hate us for). 

🚘 Don’t cheap out renting the smallest car - while convenient for parking and driving on narrow streets, they aren’t ideal for fitting car seats or lots of bags. 

⏰ Everything takes longer with a baby — and that’s okay. Always leave room for mid-hike feeds or diaper blowouts. 

✈️ Take a night flight so kiddo will sleep. Especially as they get a little older wrangling an active baby on your lap for 8 + hours is exhausting.

Would we do it again? In a heartbeat 🤍

💙Meet our new training pal - Cassian Jordan Langley 💙

Born August 24th, 8lbs 12oz 💪

“Little” dude took his sweet time and put up an epic battle to get into the world. But we are all well, thriving at home, and savouring every moment of newborn snuggles 🥰 

Resting up now, then Cass will be straight to work building a bigger bench than his dad.

✈️ Panama Babymoon Vibes 💖

We fell in love with Panama during our honeymoon last year and couldn’t wait to come back — this time, turns out with a little one on the way🤰

🗺️ This year’s adventure took us to the stunning islands of Bocas del Toro. 

🌊 Our stay at Eclypse De Mar (@eclypsedemar) was pure magic — think overwater bungalows of your dreams! We fed the fish (and Ben?) right from our floor, woke up to breakfast delivered daily, and kayaked and paddle-boarded right off our deck. Can’t beat waking up literally on ocean views! 

🏝️ Big thanks to our incredible tour guides who made the jungle and beaches unforgettable. Special shoutout to Alejandro (@living_lavidabocas) for our Zapitilla adventure, as well as Titi & Bastimentos Alive (@bastimentosalivetours) for helping us experience island life like a local. 

🍔 While I unfortunately was forced to skipped the cocktails, the smoothies and delicious bites definitely satisfied my cravings. @Cocofastronomy served up some epic Caribbean burgers that hit the spot! 🤤

Grateful for these memories, and can’t wait to show our little one all these special spots one day 🌴🥹

Procrastinated National 2025 Recap 

Squat
285kgs/628lbs ✅ 
302kgs/666lbs ✅ 
308kgs/679lbs ✅ (new national record 😎)

Bench 
170kgs/374lbs ✅ 
175kgs/385lbs ✅ 
177.5kgs/391lbs ✅ 

Deadlift 
280kgs/617lbs ✅ 
292.5kgs/650lbs ✅ 
307.5kgs/678lbs ⚪️🔴🔴 

Total 
778kgs/1715lbs @ 181lbs body weight

This wasn’t the meet I hoped for. Even though I technically won, I definitely don’t feel like a winner. This competition didn’t reflect my peak strength leading up to it at all, but sometimes it’s just not there on the day. A small technical mistake on my last deadlift lockout (definitely not strength-related, as I was 100% convinced I was locked out) cost me a couple of red lights. The refs saw what they saw. I’m held to the same standard I expect from everyone else, so I have nobody to blame but myself.

No excuses—I’m already looking forward to my next competition, where hopefully the performance will actually reflect the work @alfred.reformance and I have put in. Walking away with a ~40kg deficit on my total from what we were forecasting stung 🥲, but at least I managed to snag the national record squat! @luke_bermingham and I will be pushing that into the 700s real soon 👀.

Thank you to everyone who supported me! @alfred.reformance , I wouldn’t have changed a thing. I’m still excited to show that this total is just a small bump—and I’m not someone to be slept on.
Shoutout to @a7canada for making me look good on the platform, at least!

And huge respect to @storiesnotselfies for stealing the show while competing four months pregnant with our child 🤰!

Next year is the one that really matters for nationals, and I’m fired up to dive back into that deep pool of 83kg lifters.
