Lovely recap from @the_american_pro_ @a1.digital

First meet after surgery last year.
Got 2nd place, did terribly bad.
Most painful prep and competition I’ve ever had.
Did opener only on squat, failed depth on second and failed third. Third that was supposed to be my opener at competition that we lowered down due to knee issues.
Bench felt good, simply forgot how lower body works so I lifted butt on second attempt.
Deads did only opener, failed second while slightly pulling a pec.

Time to heal up, work on stuff that’s needed that we didnt have enough time for in prep.

A huge shoutout to the @delcospottingcrew for keeping our platform running smoothly and, most importantly, keeping our lifters safe.

We first met @delco_jesus when he competed at the very first American Pro, and he returned to compete again at American Pro II.

Now he’s back on that same platform, but this time in one of the most selfless roles in the sport.

There’s something special about going from being the athlete on the platform to being the one who has the athletes’ backs. A true full-circle moment on the very stage where it all started.

Thank you to the entire Delco Crew for the work, trust, and attention you gave every lifter who stepped into the arena.

American Pro 4.

What a freaking weekend. As I sit here, taking the day to catch up on sleep and coming down from it all, I have so many thoughts and feelings.

This meet two years ago was a turning point for me in powerlifting. I found my people, I found my role, I found my confidence and my voice. I was given the opportunity to be myself and shine. So coming back was special.

This weekend was incredible. Every detail was thought through FOR THE LIFTERS. From the venue and staff selection, to the personal touches, to the media, the warm up room, the equipment, the lighting… everything was given SUCH care and thoughtfulness.

And when it came to meet weekend? The staff showed up and gave their absolute best. From the referees sitting in the chair, to the spotting and loading crew keeping the lifters safe, to the media teams handling business, to the warm up room staff, the commentators and emcees hyping the lifters up, and everyone behind the scenes… everything was perfect.

And the lifters? They gave back to us, they put on a damn show all weekend long. Multiple records were broken under these lights, and battles were fought. It was an HONOR to be here.

It’s very clear to me, and anyone who was there this weekend, that Ana and Micah care about the lifters and this sport. And everyone who was there working it followed that lead. Love, care, and success starts at the top. I truly believe that.

And NO ONE does it like Powerlifting United. 😏💜

Thank you, Ana and Micah for allowing me to be a part of this amazing weekend, with these amazing people. 💜

Man I don’t even have the words to describe how amazing this experience was. This whole year has been crazy, from being as heavy as 93/205 last year and going all the way down to 59/130 at the beginning of year, we’ve had quite the journey. Weighed in at 63 and ready to keep bulking and fill out 66 PROPERLY and truly. Thank you @mjgreeno for everything you’ve done so far and everything that we’ll do in the future 🤝
