Mann oh man. Today was absolutely amazing. This Meet went pretty much how I expected it to and it has given me such a huge confidence boost. This prep was exhausting, however it was great. Most confident I’ve felt so far heading into a meet and the results followed. It was Olvia and I’s first meet together in the sport that brought us together. Babe, You are a warrior of a Woman and I’m so proud of you! You did so amazing today! To my team @teambarbreakers I love each and every one of you. You guys showed UP today and we took home that TEAM TROPHY! I’M SO PROUD OF US! @luke.damato You are an amazing coach and I’m beyond blessed to call you not only my coach, but my friend. I appreciate you a lot and your confidence in US is always rewarding. There’s so much more WE WILL accomplish 😈😈 Barbreakers to the MOON! Anyways enough yapping, here’s the MEET RECAP!

USAPL CT Gleason Memorial Best Lifts

S. 716lbs (78lb PR & state record)
I jumped 110lbs from my second (606) cause i didnt get a start command for my opener for “knee not locked” full send 💀

B. 419lbs 2nd
Jumped to 463lbs for my third (ballsy) rolled in my hand off my chest, bench felt strong tho

D. 650lbs 2nd
Attempted 727lbs (22lb pr) just yolo’d cause meet was already chalked lmao. Haven’t pulled anything over 639 in training so i was very surprised i almost got that tbh.

Meet didnt count towards qualifying for nationals so I just full sent everything. Had lots of fun and can’t wait for my next usapl meet!

Thanks to the people who came out to support and for the ones who watched at home 🖤

Bw. 117.2kg/258.6lbs (125kg debut)
