So this is pretty cool 😅🥇
This year is my fifth year attending the British Powerlifting Union national championships, but only my first year stepping on platform to compete 🙃
I'm not new to coaching powerlifting - I've been doing this since 2018. I've coached people from complete beginner level all the way through to setting A/WPC world records, and I've loved every second of it.
I was more than happy to play the role of coach all these years and I never really felt the pull to compete myself, until last year. I knew I'd been spinning my wheels with my own training for too long and I wanted a challenge that I could work towards that would push me to lock in 🤝🏻
So I took the plunge and I entered a qualifier in March 2025. And here we are 6 comps later, with countless lessons learned, a handful of medals won, and an overwhelming sense of wishing I'd done this sooner 😂
So this post is for anyone on the fence about whether or not they should compete. You don't have to be "strong enough" (whatever that is), you don't have to be ready, and you definitely don't have to be the best.
You just need to be prepared to try, and you can join a community of amazing, supportive, encouraging, and like-minded people 🤷🏻♂️
So what are you waiting for? 🤔
