Here it is the long overdue Nationals recap I’ve been putting off for weeks. Was meet day my best performance? No. Compared to my training, I know I had more in me. But I still walked away with meet PRs on both squat and bench, and I couldn’t be happier.
To think I made it to Nationals in my very first year of powerlifting still doesn’t feel real. If you had told me that a year ago, I would’ve thought you were crazy. Nationals made me fall even more in love with the sport. From the friends I’ve made to the unforgettable experiences along the way, this is a journey I’ll always be grateful for. by @usaplny

A year ago, I stepped away from the platform to regroup, reset, and place myself in an environment with the guidance, support, and accountability needed to help me reach my full potential.

This prep was on fire. For months, I was hitting all-time PRs in training, making technical improvements across all three lifts, and developing a stronger mindset both on and off the platform. For the first time in a long time, I felt like I was moving in the right direction.

Unfortunately, getting sick a week before Nationals took a toll, and some of that carried into meet day. While I’m grateful to have walked away with competition PRs on all three lifts and a lifetime best total, it wasn’t the performance I know I’m capable of but I sure as hell put up a fight.

But that’s the beauty of this sport. We learn, we adapt, and we get back to work. Every setback is an opportunity to grow, and every experience adds another layer to the athlete I’m becoming.

To @c_j_barney and the entire Dedicated by Design team, thank you for your guidance, support, and belief in me over the past year. You’ve pushed me to become a better athlete and helped me make more progress than I thought was possible.

A huge shoutout to @brandon.barbell and @thekuminator for handling me at Nationals. For the first time as an athlete, I wasn’t worried about anything on meet day—I was able to focus solely on lifting. Thank you for making Nationals such an incredible experience.

The foundation has been built. Now it’s time to get back to work.

Road to 500 DOTS.

And of course, none of this would be possible without being fueled by Power Pour Mixology’s supplement-infused mocktails. 🍹.
