Its good to have Ben back as a lifting partner (I was lifting on the main rack while peach Read More

I measure individual powerlifting performances by the number of successful lifts, personal records (PR) achieved, and placing within a weight class and/or age group. I also grade novices or intermediates on technical improvements and becoming more acclimated to the competitive experience. Six Read More
