CanPl Nationals 2026 coaching recap!
I had the pleasure of coaching 3 lifters into nationals this year and was fortunate enough to be able to make the trip and handle them in person. All 3 of these guys pushed themselves through training and laid it all out on the platform and I could not be more proud of each of them!
Guillaume Leblanc secured a second place finish in the extremely competitive Open 83kg class with a 790kg total (+15kg) which was initiated with a 297.5kg squat (+5kg) and secured with a 315kg deadlift (+10kg) with more in the tank Guillaume is sure to not only push the envelope, but break it open the next time he steps onto the platform.
Nathan Roy landed a 4th place finish with a 627.5kg(+2.5kg) total in a stacked 83kg sub junior class and battled the side effects of a difficult weight cut leading into this comp. Although squats did not show up how we had planned, Nathan blew away his 2nd bench press attempt and locked in a national record with 167.5kg(+5kg), increasing the record by 6.5kg. After opening deadlift Nathan started experienced intense cramping especially in his calves which made locking out nearly impossible, and after being carried to the curtain he stepped onto the platform and setup with a conventional stance - something he hasn’t trained in months - and dominated his final attempt of 247.5(+5kg) which moved him into third place momentarily. Only 9 months into the sport and has much more ahead!
Nathan Arseneau landed himself a first place finish in 59kg sub junior and secured pr’s on squat, bench, and total! The goal was to hit easy openers and land a spot on team Canada as Nathan was the only registered 59kg lifter, and from there he hit some impressive personal bests. 137.5kg(+10kg) squat, 82.5kg(+12.5kg) bench, ending with a 370kg(+22.5kg) total. Nathan is also only 9 months into the sport and now has his choice of a few international competitions with team Canada!
I want to say a big thank you to these guys for trusting me to coach/program/handle them for this, I had a blast!

Bridget came to lift and lift she did! What an impressive performance for on the final day of Eastern championships. Squats held strong and with a final deadlift of 197.5kg/435lbs she secured a third place finish and added another 2.5kg to her provincial record. Way to go B!

Big day for these two guys! We met at their first ever meet in June, provincials, and since then they have made some incredible progression. Today at their third ever meet they both walked away with some pr’s and some hardware!
Mr. Roy finished first in the sub-junior 83kg class which went down to the final deadlifts and with that also earned himself best sub-junior!
was able to add 2.5kg to his squat (from a meet 3 weeks ago) and is qualified for Nationals!
Absolutely great way to start the comp weekend and I am looking forward to seeing what these two guys do in March!

CPU Nationals 2024 Coaching Recap 2/3
Aaron Herrington made his CPU Nationals debut in the M1 105 class and with 7/9 lifts successful, clenched a 5th place finish. Aaron trains solely out of his basement home gym and we do all of our coaching online. While juggling his work, husband duties, and being a father Aaron still made the time to get his training in whenever possible. The warmup area was shared with fellow lifters and coaches which made for a comfortable and laid back environment, sharing some laughs, encouragement, and in my case, an opportunity to share advice that allowed to bounce back from a slipped opening deadlift, to an finishing with a PB pull. Unforgettable day with great people!
Aaron’s best lifts were
Squat - 207.5kg/457.5lbs
Bench - 115kg/253.5lbs
Deadlift - 217.5kg/479.5lbs
Total - 540kg/1190.5lbs

CPU Nationals 2024 coaching recap 1/3
Susan Blackmun or better known to .strength.factory fam as “Mama Sue” made her debut on the National platform just 14 months after beginning her journey into powerlifting, went 7/9 and walked away with a couple of new provincial records and a bronze medal! The work ethic that Sue possesses is absolutely unmatched and this meet prep was proof of that as Sue learned approx. 5 weeks out that she had been training with 2 broken ribs for the previous 6 weeks!! Not to mention almost having to drink water to make weight into the 84+ category achieving a new all time low bodyweight and making her last competition as an 84+ lifter. Congratulations Sue on an amazing performance!
Sue’s best lifts were
Squat - 95kg/209.4lbs
Bench - 50kg/110.2lbs
Deadlift - 107.5kg/237lbs(prov. record)
Total - 252.5kg/556.7lbs(prov. record)
