Squats pre-ritual involves focus but lots of fun! I keep telling myself daily that I am not worthy of the great people of @zerow_sunshinecoast. I can be having a bad day but I always leave the gym on a positive mindset (unless I failed deadlifts but thats just another Tuesday). Today was one of those days where I had a win that I needed and feel back on track. Having @cooper_morgan as my Coach, @rhys_kingsford able to mentor me and constantly reminding me of my age, @tia.cobern being there pushing me and @b.cobern calling me Papi makes me feel like I belong. Thank you guys…I had a great day today even when @mitchel_j_bryan arrived after the fact and started abusing me….bliss! taken in ZeroW Sunshine Coast by @theregulator

What a way to finish the week…Squat night on Friday have became one pf my favourite days of the week. Still with my Coach @cooper_morgan working from home today, I was able to hit the numbers as expected. Week 4 and 232.5kg for 3 reps felt very good and today couldn’t have been achieved without the @zerow_sunshinecoast family, @rhys_kingsford, @hannah.annetts, @holliemcconkey and my bro, @mitchel_j_bryan…Not going to lie but my squat inspiration has been @maxtanks as he is been hitting amazing numbers! taken in ZeroW Sunshine Coast by @theregulator

Yes…I have been quiet post comp…but I have been focused in finishing this block that I believe gave me something I had no idea I still had in the tank…also trying to fall in love with squats after a long time avoiding them…Friday nights have been great @zerow_sunshinecoast as these are squat nights for everyone…having @cooper_morgan in my corner made me believe I have more to give in the sport…also @rhys_kingsford (when he is not trying to break my phone) 😝 @rohdwyer who is always setting the standard and @mitchel_j_bryan who went to a massive prep during this time and made Fridays bearable with his DJ skills…I love this gym, love this people and love this sport…the Wolf is back! taken in ZeroW Sunshine Coast by @theregulator

Exactly 12 months ago after some serious changes happening to me personally I entered @zerow_sunshinecoast for the first time. I wasn’t aware of such a great community that I was actually being kept away from…I discovered great and kind people and a great community and I wish I have met everyone earlier in my life. 12 months after and I feel I am a better person and athlete. Thank you for all the support and accepting me as part of the @zerow_sunshinecoast family! Forever grateful! T taken in ZeroW Sunshine Coast by @theregulator

T cut weight for this comp, which messed with his energy today, but was still a fun day ! Some awesome attempts. The 177.5 in u125’s push pull was nice chip 🫡😤. 185 bench is still the nemesis, came off the chest which is a great start 🫡. 260 would have gotten T the masters Australian push pull 1 spot, unfortunately just wasn’t quite there today. Onto the next one ! by @theregulator
