Here’s Holton’s best sn**ch lift at the Open this last weekend. 113kg video credit Jamie Hegg. (Jamie helped us out in the warm up room, shot video, kept old coach from wandering off. The night before she won the 63kg weight class.)
Holton got a nice PR clean and jerk on his last attempt at the Virus Finals (formerly known as the American Open) in Daytona Beach this past Saturday. 140kg in the Jr 94kg class. His happy comment coming off the platform was “That was a long time coming.”

Jamie Hegg back in town for the holidays…I hadn’t seen this clean pull, clean and “clean and jerk thruster” complex before. Pretty impressive!
17kg Squat PR for Holton this morning…he’s been in a post competition / pre track and field transition phase the last couple of weeks and hasn’t really squatted over 80% 1RM for about a month now. He wanted to give it a shot. Here’s his new best (180kg) effort.

Holton had a big weekend at the American Open Championship Finals in Tucson. He won the 16-17 y/o 96kg class with a 116kg sn**ch, 138kg clean and jerk for a 254kg total, which also makes him the #1 ranked lifter nationally in his age group/ weight class.
Had a nice visit from Jamie Hegg this morning. Coming back from wrist surgery a few months ago, mending well. 120kg jerk.
