Putting our little Cornish town on the map! Some good news for the town!
On Monday, Laura stepped onto the platform at the WPC AWPC European Powerlifting Championships 2026 in Limerick, Ireland, and became European Champion in the Women’s Raw Masters 2 - 82.5kg class.
Not only did she win her division, she rewrote the record books:
🏅 Squat – 135kg (British, European & World Record)
🏅 Bench Press – 72.5kg (British, European & World Record)
🏅 Deadlift – 140.5kg (European Record)
🏅 Total – 348kg (British, European & World Record)
That’s 3 British Records, 4 European Records and 3 World Records in a single day.
What makes this even more special is that Laura’s first competition was only a qualifier back in March. Two years ago we started this journey together, and since then I’ve had the privilege of watching her show up, work hard, trust the process, and refuse to quit.
But this post isn’t really about the records.
It’s about the person behind them.
Laura isn’t just a client. She’s one of my closest friends. She’s family.
This gym family push each other every day to be the best version of ourselves.
To see someone you care about achieve something this incredible, on a European stage, after all the early mornings, tough sessions, setbacks, doubts and sacrifices, is something I’ll never forget 😭😭😭
We are unbelievably proud of you, Laura.
European Champion.
World Record Holder.
And just getting started. ❤️
All from our little community focussed gym 😍
