After a lot of PT, I finally got to get back into competing again… Thank you @amandaarendt.dpt for everything — she truly is the best!! @prxphysicaltherapy Even though I didn’t go crazy at this meet, I’m just happy to be back doing what I love. Also tried power jerking instead of split jerk 😭 I hope to get back to the numbers I used to hit, but for now I’m proud of this comeback.

Stay in the process! The battle is to focus on your journey; try not to let the numbers get you, don’t worry about what others are doing, don’t be nervous about the calendar. Some days you’re tired, some days stressed, but every moment you can control some aspect of your journey. Technique, focus, recovery, effort. Control and embrace what you can. @ninjameals @lilcottingham @addiej.09 @forzaweightlifting taken in CrossFit Freedom by @lilcottingham

Push with your legs, Clear the Road, Stay over the Bar. It can be said many ways, but what happens as the bar passes the knees is crucial. Getting the knees out of the way of the bar allows it to come in or, stay close to the lifters center of mass. This shortens the lever arm on the back and helps the lifter come into a power position with a more vertical torso, flatter feet and ultimately a more connected finish. by @lilcottingham

💪That’s the end… Thank you so much for the coaches for making these past years an incredible journey. I could not have done it without every one of you. @ntpowerlifting Powerlifters:  First I wanted to express how proud I am of each and every one of you. You all have shown what it truly means to be a New Trier Powerlifter. Your dedication, resilience, and commitment to community has shown in many ways throughout this year. By supporting one another throughout lifts to help out with the Infinite Welfare Society. This team would not be the same without you. Each of you has shown dedication to pushing your limits, not just in terms of weights but also in the way we help one another. We have moments throughout practice where the training session is hard. Yet, through it all, we stand by each other, embodying the true spirit of teamwork and camaraderie.  Each one of you has contributed to the success of this year. Whether it’s by numbers or by support. We have set new personal records, broken barriers, and learned along the process. All the competitions we’ve done as a team, we showcased not only our physical power but also our determination, sportsmanship, and unity as a team. For instance, State this year. Everyone helped out no matter if they lifted or not. We all supported everyone in the room, creating a positive environment for all the schools that competed. This showed who we are as one big team. But not only did we just support everyone during the competition. We showed grit in that moment. Showing what we can accomplish together. Each medal and each record is a testament to our hard work and collective efforts.  I can’t wait to see what this team can accomplish next. As I said before, this team is second to none. Let’s carry the lessons we’ve learned throughout this year and continue to strive for the best we can be. Trust the moment and cherish the time you have together. Thank you so much for trusting me as your captain and for giving your best every single day. It has been an incredible ride and one I will never forget. I can’t wait to see all the accomplishments this team has to offer.  Your co-captain, Lilly Cottingham by @lilcottingham
