8 weeks ago I herniated my s1 disk causing glute, hamstring, and calf weakness plus a lot of pain. I wasn’t able to compete at Strongman Corp Ontario provincials which was really sh*tty. Today I went to CANPL Central Canadian Championship with the goal of hitting the m1 qt for Canada Powerlifting nationals next year, qualifying for Ontario Powerlifting provincials for bench only, and also not getting more injured. (I haven’t competed in powerlifting since nationals in 2024 so my qts are all about to expire).

Squats were 3/3 started light to make sure I didn’t bomb out if I got hurt. I could wear knee sleeves still because they activate my calf so just raw dogged it.
Ended with 230kg

Bench was also 3/3. Since doing strongman for the past year I haven’t been benching much so to hit 162.5kg was pretty good.

Deadlifts I pulled what I needed to for my 580kg total (lowest total I have got since I started powerlifting 😞)

Overall centrals was successful with coaching 7 athletes over the 4 days and competing while coaching one today was a new experience. Thanks to Joey MacDonagh and Jolan Taylor for letting me warm up with your athletes. Also thanks to Make Your Mark Fitness, the refs, and volunteers for making this meet run smoothly.

Lastly thanks to Brook Bennie from Active Relief Centre for helping me through the recovery process to get me to this point.

Chris Almond with a 🥉 place finish CANPL Central Canadian Championship.

Squats have been a struggle with depth so we dropped his opener to make sure he was good. Second attempt moved better than the first but unfortunately depth just wasn’t there on the 3rd. 215kg/222.5kg/232.5kg 2/3

Bench was also 2/3, 160kg/167.5kg/172.5kg.

Deadlifts is his lift. The plan was to pull over 317.5kg/700lb this meet (pulled 320/705 in prep). After going 290kg and 305kg I was looking to see placing and Chris was in 🥉. I originally loaded 310kg for the podium spot but after another athlete hit their deadlift to tie on total and bump Chris to 4th I changed his 3rd attempt to for the win on total. It was a solid pull to earn his place on the podium.

I was also competing in the same session so running back and forth between warm ups and his attempts was a new experience lol.

Thanks to Joey MacDonagh and Dave Smolen for helping get him warmed up.
