🥇 World Champion 🌎
Great performance from Delwyn this year in Poland showing fantastic progress. This time last year Delwyn hadn’t benched 80kg since 2018; she has now had 7 successful attempts taken at 80kg or more, with this world championship being the first time ever opening at 80kg, leading to a narrowly missed 3rd attempt of an all time PB at 85kg.
Massive thanks to for the gameday coaching & handling.

Awesome day on the platform for Kem in Sydney, clean sweep of PBs across the board only just missing out on that nice round 600kg total on the 3rd deadlift attempt.

A quick trip over the ditch to qualify for APL Nationals. Very impressive performance considering Pete suffered a minor quad tear under a 322.5kg squat at the Ruthless Classic only 5 weeks prior to this.

What a privilege it is to present his 5 year T-Shirt ⚡️⚡️⚡️
When Baz first turned up to Ruthless, he had been on a powerlifting hiatus since the 80’s. He joined in on a squat session, and on his drive home he knew he was back in the game. Since then we have done 13 Competitions together, PBs are still happening and competition number 14 is just next weekend.
Baz is an inspiration to myself as well as many others, who I know strive towards lifting for life.
Thanks Baz for all of the memories made in NZ, Mongolia, South Africa & Australia; I look forward to making more.
A big thanks to Warren Russell for introducing Baz to RBC, I know Baz, Myself and the whole RBC community are very thankful.
