I don't know exactly what was going through head at this moment, but I like to think he is thinking about how proud he is of himself and all the consistent hard work he puts in. Like so many of our awesome members. I'd like to think that this is the face of a person in his happy place. Yeah, that's definitely what this photo looks like to me 🔥

Stepping onto the platform is one thing, showing up prepared, confident and unstoppable is another 💪🏼
Our Iron Athlete Simone recently competed in her second powerlifting competition: bench nationals.
This is what she had to say about Roy’s coaching:
The NK Bench was a really great experience and definitely one I look back on with a good feeling!
During the competition, I was able to fully focus on lifting. Roy had planned the warm-ups perfectly and made sure the attempts were realistic and well-suited to me. Because of that, I didn’t have to think about anything myself. Combined with his calm and composed presence, this helped a lot when my nerves started to build.
In the preparation, I received clear feedback on the videos I submitted and there was enough variation in the exercises to keep improving in a focused way. What I also really appreciated was how Roy took my sometimes busy schedule during clinical rotations into account. Training days were flexible — sometimes training a bit less, or being able to go all out in the weekend with an SBD day, which worked really well for me.
All in all, I benefited greatly from Roy’s coaching and I look back on both the preparation and competition day with a very positive feeling!
Were really proud of Simone’s performance and she managed to take the gold medal home 🥇
