Congrats to my client Melissa on a huge accomplishment! 18 months ago Melissa came to me with zero lifting experience, she had never set foot into a weight room in her life. We spent several weeks working on her form with very light dumbbells and fixing her imbalances- working our way up to finally get her hands on a barbell a couple months in.
Yesterday Melissa accomplished a huge goal we set to achieve a year ago. She wanted to deadlift. We set our sights on a meet and spent the last year building muscle. A woman who could barley do a bicep curl with an 8lb dumbbell pulled 226lbs off the floor yesterday. She has only been under a barbell for 18 months and at 57kg squated 182lbs and she is only 25lbs from benching her body weight. Her hard work and dedication to got her gold in 57kg open and 57kg masters 1b!! Keep your eyes on this one, she is going to do amazing things.
