Finally just got sorted from returning back from The GPC World Championships in Slovakia 🇸🇰 representing team GB 🇬🇧 .
Well we went for the win in the U90kg Deadlift and… that’s EXACTLY what we did!
More than happy to come away with the World Champion Title.
3 weeks ago I partial tore my bicep and I thought all my prep and training was over. Well somehow, I managed to put some sort of recovery plan together and we still went even though my bicep was pretty bad.
I was nowhere near at my best and managed to do the bare-minimal for the win with a 280kg. Normally 280kg is just a warm up weight as most know and I know I was on for a 320-340 figure until this injury, so slightly disappointed with the figure but least my bicep is still intact and just about attached.
This was only my 2nd powerlifting competition but boy did @gpc_gb put on a superb competition! From the venue/platform/warm up area/ timetable and all the refs and spotters. I have never witnessed or taken part in anything so as good as this! I haven’t got to the final on my own though…
@johnthesportstherapist – friend/training partner, soft tissue and sport massage.
John has been there every step of the way, dealt with most of my injuries along the way and traveled pretty much to every country I’ve competed in. I owe him so much and I’m highly grateful with what he’s done.
@vigourvirtue – Clothing apparel sponsor.
These drafted me in and took me on board at the start of 2019 and have lashed me up with pretty much anything I want when ever I wanted it.
Yeah there loads of clothing company’s out there’s but Jesus this clobber is so good you could wear it for any functions and it’s of the highest quality. Buy cheap buy twice or buy once from @vigourvirtue and it will last and look awesome forever!
@asgardfitnessltd Gym in Newmarket
This is where most of my training has been conducted. Been established for 3 years now and has the highest quality gym kit on the market. They splashed out on competition skinny weight plates so we had the best training kit to hand.
All my training partners and friends
Peter Circuit , Carl Granny Grantham, Steve Wheeler-Smith, Rob Achner Mike Bromilow, Pixie Wahlberg-Adams, Jason Tate and pretty much all of Asgard gym members have spotted or helped loading or unload of weights at some point.
Thanks to all of the above as I’ve needed it all.
