THE WORK IS DONE. COLLEGIATE CROSSROADS MEET RECAP. 11/18/2023.

🥇 best overall junior lifter
🥇 team @purduepowerlifting

what a journey. and what an incredible endpoint. today was one of the best experiences i’ve ever had in a team setting and definitely the best powerlifting experience i’ve ever had. the last few months really felt worth it and it was totally rewarding to have an experience like today, where all these different teams came together.

haven’t posted in a min and feeling sentimental about the journey the last 4-5 months, so i wanted to make a small appreciation post for the person who has helped keep me accountable to achieving my goals of getting back in the gym.

i’m so thankful for this lady because she has helped motivate me to do better and to be better, which in turn has resulted in me having months now of consistently getting in the gym 5 days a week. after essentially 2 years out from the gym (with some small periods of working out in between) this is the most consistent i’ve been back in and i can only thank you and i love you @cassie.atterson for this. i told her months ago i wasn’t gonna let her out work me and she said the same and so seldom we’ve missed any workouts besides a week or two that we’ve been sick, and i’m very thankful for that. it’s been fun to grow in the gym with you and to start feeling like myself again, and anyone that helps me feel like myself again i’m forever indebted to. thanks for being my gym partner these last few months and my favorite gym buddy — i love working out with you and love you in general cassie 😘 by @camfarolifts

life truly is great. all pics from the last few days

since i’ve graduated from purdue things have really taken a turn for the better. touched on it a bit but mental health took a huge toll in the latter half of 2024 causing me to lose around 20 lbs. i have since gained back about 15 lbs and my mental and physical health has improved so much.

been working 40+ hours a week for about 8 weeks now, hitting gym around 4-5 times a week (mostly), getting closer with friends and gaining new ones. got a new car, i genuinely have no complaints. i finally feel like blessings have returned to my life in so many aspects i was yearning for, for nearly 4 years.

this is my life now; though things are going well now i understand where my discipline must be and the things i must do/have been doing to achieve the state of nirvana i currently exist within. thank you to everyone for being there for me when i needed it the most and for those who continue to do so. much love to all of yall ❤️ i’ve said it and ill say it again, if i can do it then so can ALL of you. by @camfarolifts

first progress check in ~1 year. currently up 8lbs over a few weeks. been getting back into training, hoping to make some big gains this summer in the post-nose break arc 🤣 that’s a story for another day however.

⭐️ COLLEGIATE NATIONALS MEET RECAP ⭐️

went into this meet with absolutely zero expectations, and honestly really blew my own mind with the results. throughout the prep for this meet (which was my shortest prep for a meet to date) i had a ton of life issues and other unexpected circumstances i had to deal with. i ended up missing an entire week of training over spring break due to my bag being left at home. as well as i continually lost weight due to absolutely zero appetite. as time led towards the meet, i ended up getting sick and feverish on the monday the week of; however through all these things, i stacked my chips and put it all behind me so i could put everything on the table while actually on the platform (while having a head cold). through everything i really learned how to put in the work while at the face of adversity, and with the huge help of @tb_strengthetics i was able to put together my best meet yet!!!

i want to say many thanks to those that have supported me in my journey. from the members of @sigmanu_purdue fraternity for the constant, unconditional support, the assistance from @purduepowerlifting and its members, my friends, my mother, @katie_lifting for handling me while also handling another athlete, and of course my coach @tb_strengthetics for helping me get back from 0 (literally hadn’t lifted in a month at the start of prep) to ALL TIME PR’s. i could not have done this without any of those who were listed above, and for that i am forever grateful and more thankful than any of you all could know. by @camfarolifts
