I started powerlifting after I broke up with a super toxic ex in May of last year. I’m so happy with my progress, my first deadlift I could only lift 72 lbs. now in competition I pulled 275 lbs for deadlift and won my weight class, setting two state records. I’m excited to see how much further I can go with it.

Here’s a pic of me pulling 265 for the first time. Also peep my current boyfriend (just coach at the time) with his big goofy smile. Love that dude for supporting me on my journey. ❤️

Aaaand here’s a picture after the competition was over. (I don’t have any lift pics from the competition sadly 😞). I had a really awesome time and all the girls were so supportive of each other.
