160 kg / 352.7 lbs bench press ATPR
+7.5kg bench PR

Provincials recap :
Competed this last weekend at OPA provincials, went 1/3, only benching 145kg / 320 lbs.

This was extremely frustrating as I had the best prep on bench I’ve ever had, I loaded 152 at an RPE 8 in prep, a gain of 7.5 on what I had done @8 in the prior prep for the Central Canadian Championships. I planned to load 160 at provincials.

Turns out, I suck at benching on the ER power rack. My technique for bench is pretty specific, I wasn’t able to adjust warming up causing me not be able express all of my strength at provincials.

Training for nationals I plan to clean up this rep of 160 and hopefully load even more.

Gonna keep pushing bench hard until CANPL nationals in Nanaimo!

Thanks to @seanyen83kg for awesome back to back preps for both centrals and then provs (adding 15kg to my bench over the last few blocks).

S/O @matrixx_pl for goated game day handling.

Super happy with how this meet went, glad I could come back and go 3/3 on squats after dealing with a lower back compression two blocks prior, gonna train my hardest to get these back up.

Bench felt great on the day, second attempt
142 (+2.5 meet pr) felt very easy so made an aggressive jump to 150 that just wasn’t there today. Will have another shot at this soon.

Deadlifts have come the farthest, incredibly proud I was able to put up a 15kg ATPR (+30kg meet Pr) and pull 265. The hype from the lads was unreal. @ethanakermanlifts @matrixx_pl

Thanks to my coach @seanyen83kg for always pushing me to always be my best, thanks to my teammate and friend @matrixx_pl for the most dialed game day decisions and handling services. Thanks to my friends and family for the many words of encouragement and hype 🤝

Will do a meet later this year before nats to hit 640 🙏 very happy with my performance, onto the next.
