The Recap.

First and foremost thank you @ronnieronnn @angeewong @1repmethods this prep wouldn’t have been same without you guys.

IPF Masters Worlds

1st place — 93kg Masters 1 🥇
9/9 lifts. Not a single miss.
First world-level competition — mission accomplished.

Prep for this one tested me in every way. Nothing about it was easy, but the goal was clear: show up, execute, and win. And that’s exactly what we did.

Still know there’s more in the tank — this was just the beginning. Competing on the world stage and connecting with lifters from across the globe was unreal. Truly grateful for the experience, the lessons, and the people I met along the way.

We came for gold, and we got it. On to the next one. 🔥💪

Thank you @lift.atx and @petespence for hosting the concha classic ❤️ @dhinojosaaas you guys kill it with the best lifter awards.

I’ve backed off a bit this year from PL and this meet was definitely overdue to have some fun. Prep was very minimal and didn’t cut weight. It’s reassuring to see I can balance other interests and still perform.

Ended with a new PR total 810k and 332.5k deadlift.

Thank you @thomas_superset & @thewolvesofwinter for handling.

Still lifting 🤷‍♂️ Lil SBD session, a reminder I can still move some weight.
Been enjoying BJJ lately… just figuring out the balance.

Not bad for the last few lifts. First ever 14hr flight, probably feeling some jet lag 😬. This is definitely the coolest experience I’ve ever had at a meet, meeting people from other countries and finding out they know who you are 🥲.

48hrs to do the damn thing with @ronnieronnn

Time to relax.

One of the last two SBD sessions before masters worlds.

Preparation has been tough, but I’m more than excited for the experience ahead.

5ish weeks out from worlds. Training has been up and down, this SBD was much needed. Bench is showing up finally. Maybe it’s the Texas heat 🤷‍♂️

@chonk_boi_leos for the support 🤝

Finally feeling back to baseline. 10ish weeks out. Still rusty but just about there.

S. 265(585)x4, 280(617)x1
B. 175(385)x1 tempo.
D. 270(595)x5 had to fight the platform for these reps.

Skating has been amazing, found a great park and has leveled me out some

Little recap from PA aged nats,
Not my cleanest performance, but I’m proud of pushing through. 2nd place, new friends, and a chance to compete at Master Worlds in October. Grateful and hungry for more.

S. 292.5 (644)
B.172.5 (380)
D. 305 (672)

TLDR… for subpar performance . Water/gut cut won the day. Dropping roughly 10lbs wasn’t the smartest thing within 5 days which falls on me, i was too heavy to start. Everything was off and clearly affected my performance.

@1repmethods cant put into words my appreciation and for keeping me calm considering how upset I was. I wouldn’t be in the position I’m in now, nor would have ever thought I’d be in position for a world level meet.

@angeewong for the support as always. by @garryleeee
