First and foremost I want to give a special thanks to my beautiful fiancé @alexisssraee, for spending our anniversary at a powerlifting meet and for always supporting me in everything I do.

@jeffelian for making sure I’m always ready, always answering the phone when I need him too, driving 7 hours to handle me at a stupid powerlifting meet 😂😂 and being a solid coach and friend.

A lot of goals were hit this meet. 300 kilo squat, 1700+ total, and 500+ DOTS. Crazy enough, it didn’t win the meet. But grateful it was a teammate and training partner @certified_dumbbitch, who chipped me once again lmao

@jividen_ put on a hell of a meet. It’s dope to have a local meet where some of the WV big dogs show up, it’s amazing that I’m even holding a candle to some of these guys. @efrancis3378 @frontal_calm @dieseldan222 @certified_dumbbitch @cbread_muat it was a pleasure.

Proud of Team Elian and the rest of the Diesel Strength crew. Y’all showed up.

The only thing that was missing was my miss Laila, so I chose our favorite song, from her favorite movie ♥️♥️
