115 beautiful kilogrammes 😊👌

There's simply nothing in this world that is better than the indescribable feeling weightlifting gives you.

@mrbigfriday thank you for being a Coach who listens, is accepting and understanding. Without these qualities this PB would not have happened yesterday 😊

Mostly, I appreciate the fact that you don't shy away from saying it how it is. Most importantly (!) without ego and judgement . Just straightforward coaching, without the bullshit 👌 Apart from your huge knowledge about everything WL , I think this is one of the reasons why your lifters trust and appreciate you.

Your programming is just 👌👌👌 (I don't have the right word) .

I'm loving this journey. I love my progress. I love the knowledge I've gained so far. I love how my lifts are looking (work in progress as always, but I love them) . I am now on the right path to get to my goal; and then to the next one, and the next...

I shall leave it at this before this ends up being a novel.

Strength is a beautiful thing 🏋️❤️

It’s been a very big year career wise with changing jobs into a completely new environment and new sport and a completely different routine. However I’m far less tired and burnt out than I was and it’s reflecting on my training.

So we decided to just train through it to not add other stressors. Now that I’m settled in I want to be doing lots more comps next year to push my total up even further to that English and British standard!

Big thank you to @phixtraining, @mrbigfriday and @harrytrains_ for the support and encouragement as always!

You’ll still never guess it’s a PB as I don’t celebrate in the slightest! 😂
