Been working on tidying up the bench technique and it’s paying off big time. Onwards to 60kg perhaps!!

Huge congratulations to TSF head coach Joshua Luu who made his international coaching debut this week at the IPF Junior World Championships in South Africa.

Josh made the trip to coach his remote athlete Brendan Tian who placed 12th in the junior 83kg class 👏🏽✨

He was also the assistant platform coach for seven other lifters of the Australian junior team.

Huge week, hugely proud 🫡🤝🏾🏆🇦🇺

punching out a 160kg squat to start the comp prep!

Rich is competing in a months time and we’ve started practicing heavier singles for the lead up.

It wasn’t long ago that 160kg was scary territory for him — now it’s easy weight !
