🥇-47Jr National Champion!🥇

*yap about how this wasn’t the meet we wanted*

I am so incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to be on that platform and give it (somewhat) my best. Sorry to everyone I lied to saying I’d never do -47kg again…

Thank you so much to my coach @jimmykwillard @podiumpowerlifting for dealing with me wanting to pull out of nats four times. My utmost respect to @sweat.w.sash for having amazing resilience and still showing up despite her injuries! It was an honour to share the platform with strong women such as herself! And obviously all of my @ssmupowerlifting dawgs supporting me through this whole thing and cheering every PR along the way. Finally, to @liltotal cheers to helping me remove my knee sleeves 3x a week

Onwards to worlds to stack a total I’m proud of! 🦜

First international meet in the books 🌎
🥈NAPF
280kg total @ 48.64kg BW
2/3 Squat 110kg
2/3 Bench 60kg (+2.5kg PR)
2/3 Deadlift 110kg

Many factors made this meet the most challenging one I’ve done, mentally and physically, especially for squats. This led to a performance that does not reflect the work I put in the gym. But we still show up 🤝

Biggest thanks to Team Canada coaches for handling me @coach.ken.sthpowergym @jimmykwillard @s3_christine

Special appreciation to my coach Wila 👑 for believing in me and pushing me to persevere when I wanted to give up 🫡
And my greatest respect and admiration for @delapuwersa for being the sweetest, most fun -52kg competitor I could’ve asked for

Finally, shoutout to my @ssmupowerlifting community for uplifting me and listening to me complain about my knee sleeves @simon.pwr @dylanpwr @rawaslifts @wow.its.ali @davod_is_big_and_greedy @jackiee.gym @kai_lifts_ @bambampowerlifting @liltotal @emmaaaashi 🫶
