I'm so grateful for transformations like this. Congratulations to @teamstrongwood Another post-cancer PR - 250kg for 6 repetitions on Deadlift: BW at 83kg. I haven’t lifted heavier than 240kg for a single since the transplant and it wasn’t very pretty. I was left a bit unsure after last week’s set of 10 at 220. I wasn’t sure how this weight would feel because I hadn’t even hit this weight for a single yet. With the risk of a hernia in my mind, it becomes a cautious game I have to play. But, just like with squats, I trusted my body and compartmentalized those thoughts for the duration of this session. As an athlete, there is a time to think those thoughts and a time where you just have to flip a switch, gain some confidence, and perform. I’m happy I was able to get back to the latter. Then again, it’s not very hard when you’ve got @cecilieerika, @khloenash, and @slumd0gchillionaire yelling at you. My strength is coming back way faster than I anticipated: it feels good. I can’t wait to see how the next few weeks progress. Lift heavier. Laugh harder. Fight longer. #TeamStrongwood #cancersurvivor #mbslingshot @bodystore.dk #powerlifting #yes #deadlift #conventionaldeadlift #sumodeadlift #powerlifter #strength #goals #sport #power #determination #inspiration #dedication #gym #physique #squat #bench #strongman https://www.instagram.com/p/BvCd_l5gxhl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ale5wkvk4wtu
