I quickly learned I could hold an L-Sit for a MAXIMUM of 10 seconds, this was going to take awhile... 🤦🏻‍♀️

Didn’t video my back squat max out session with Julia. Got to 113kg - 248.6lbs. One day I will best my max of 260lbs. @jubia.jae @caledoniaweightlifting @driftwoodathletics #olympicweightlifting #backsquat #maxout #mastersweightlifter #mastersweightlifting (at Driftwood Athletics) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVMMP5ApIJa/?utm_medium=tumblr

Results are in and I placed 4th in the world 🌎 in my age/weight class. I could not have done this without the man beside me coaching and supporting me. I am lifter I am right now because of him and what he knew I was capable of when I thought no way. Back to work and looking forward to the World Master Games in Japan and to podium in the next World Masters in 2022. Shout out to Driftwood @driftwoodathletics for welcoming Caledonia @caledoniaweightlifting into the gym and having us become part of the family! @iamdanielenglish @catrina.guglielmucci.pt #olympicweightlifting #snatch #cleanandjerk #mastersweightlifting #backtowork (at Driftwood Athletics) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPYWQ3kscE_/?utm_medium=tumblr
