Road to 600lbs Pt. 3…
Just some raw footage warming up for a top single. Things are moving standard, but I’m having to respect the knees right now and dial in the recovery.
Honestly, don’t expect much from me overall haha, squats are the only thing holding it down lately. Bench and deadlift need a lot of work.
Counting down to Provincials. Can’t wait to see everyone on the platform. Good luck with the training!
2 weeks out!!

Need an afternoon pick-me-up that’s gonna help hit your goals? Say no more, we gotchu !
4 ingredients:
- zero cal sweetener of choice
- 1 c egg whites (pasteurized*)
- Double shot espresso
- 3/4-1 c high protein milk of choice
If you want to sub the milk for a protein shake, skip the sweetener. Both is definitely overkill IMO
What’s your go-to high protein treat ?

It is so easy to look at someone Good moments. Their skills that seem perfect their routine, and their confidence. Making us feel completely not good enough. We live in a world that says people are great when they are really good at something. It rarely shows the hard frustrating and difficult process it takes to get to that point.
When we try something our first thought is usually to criticize ourselves. We think we should be good at it right away and when we are not we want to give up.. The truth is that nobody becomes an expert overnight. Every single person you look up to had a day where they felt completely lost.
Giving yourself kindness is not about accepting less from yourself it is about changing what you expect from yourself. It means allowing yourself to be not good at something for a while so you can eventually become great at the thing you are trying to do.
Trying to be kind to yourself looks like:
• Accepting the moments: Laughing at your mistakes instead of letting them make you feel bad for the rest of the day.
• Being happy about successes: Being proud of getting a little bit better instead of only thinking about the end goal.
• Not comparing yourself to others: Stopping yourself from comparing your beginning to someone Much later point.
Getting better at something requires being open and honest, with yourself. It takes a lot of courage to say you do not know everything and to try things anyway.
So if you are starting a job trying a hard hobby going to the gym for the first time or trying to make a part of your life better. Take a deep breath. Do not put much pressure on yourself to be perfect right away. Accept that you will make mistakes. A beginners mindset is one that ready to accept changes and improve. It has the most room for growth.

Strong looks different on everyone. And it belongs to all of us. 💪
The gym isn’t just a place to work out, it’s a place where women build strength that carries into all aspects of life. With every rep, you’re not just growing muscle, you’re building confidence, resilience, and self-trust.
Muscles aren’t just for men.
Ambition isn’t just for men.
Competitiveness isn’t just for men.
Strength👏🏻Isn’t👏🏻Just👏🏻For👏🏻Men👏🏻
Because the strength you build here shows up everywhere:
-> how walk into a room.
-> how you think about yourself.
-> how you trust yourself to handle hard things.
Take up space ladies 🤸♀️
Lift heavy. Know your power. Inside and outside the gym.
If you’re a woman showing up, putting in the work, and getting stronger every day, we see you! Drop a 💪🏼 in the comments and rep your grind!

The WEDGE isn’t just a setup detail, it’s the difference between FIGHTING the bar and moving it with INTENT 🧐
When done properly, you create full-body tension before the pull.
That means:
➡️ stronger, more stable positions
➡️ better power transfer off the floor
➡️ less stress on your lower back
➡️ more consistent, repeatable lifts
It’s not about pulling harder. But about starting smarter.
Master the wedge, and the weight moves the way it’s supposed to 📈
Take it from someone who’s added 20kg to their deadlift in the last 6 months.. this is a part of your technique you can’t afford to neglect !

You know that feeling when the RPE climbs, the bar slows down, and you end up turning your squat into an ugly good-morning?
Yeah. We’ve all been there. We’re fixing that today.
If you want to keep your bar velocity up out of the hole, you can’t just rely on trying to push harder. You need to be technically dialed in. Next time you unrack, I want you focusing on two things:
Chest up. And I don’t mean craning your neck back. Lock that upper back tight. If you fold at the bottom, your hips shoot back and you instantly loose power. Stay stacked over your mid-foot.
Hips through. Just pushing with your quads will only get you so far. The second you start your ascent, you need to be violently driving those hips forward to meet the bar. Use your posterior chain and snap it through.
Chest up to stay in the groove. Hips through to finish the lift.
Try this on your next heavy set and watch how much faster the bar moves.
Daily 1RM part 2.
Full transparency: the first half of this program worked wonders for me. But past the halfway point? I was just getting beat up.
I hit a wall and couldn’t break 170kg. Maybe it was a mental block after achieving the goals I’ve been working towards, but honestly, I believe I mostly just lacked the raw strength to express any more weight.
I also weighed in at this bench-only comp at 79.06kg. This is well beyond my usual sub-74kg class. Putting on that extra weight over the past month definitely impacted my performance.
Moving forward, I’ll be returning to my regular programming, as I don’t believe daily maxing is sustainable long-term. Even though I wouldn’t recommend this to everyone, the reality speaks for itself: I was still able to bench +15kg more than I could before starting this program.
Some of you have expressed interest already, but for anyone else wanting to try this...

My bench technique breakdown…
Lift on Film
BW: 77.0kg Bench: 170kg x 1 rep (+2.5kg oh yeah finally, feel like I’ve just hit a lifetime goal!! Now onto the next… lol)
Arguably, one of the most challenging aspects of powerlifting isn’t physical.. It’s mental.
We’re constantly surrounded by rankings, points, and scoreboards, and it’s easy to fall into the habit of comparing ourselves to others on the roster.
I’ve been there myself, especially in training. You look around the room, notice what others are lifting, and start measuring your own progress against theirs. That comparison can creep in quickly and pull you out of your own lane.
At times, this can serve purpose: fuelling motivation and pushing us to elevate our performance. But more often than not, it becomes a distraction from what truly matters: your own development, your own process, and your own timeline 📈
The strongest athletes aren’t the ones who constantly look sideways, they’re the ones who stay locked in on their path, trusting the work they’re putting in day after day.
We have to remember that progress in this sport isn’t linear, and it doesn’t look the same for everyone. There’s value in every phase; whether you’re building, refining, or pushing for new limits.
Sometimes, the most important thing we can do is take a step back and appreciate that we are exactly where we need to be.
Have you ever struggled with this concept of comparison? Do you find it motivates or distracts you? Let us know👇🏻
