Big shoutout to Rachel @rmverrill13 killing it at the RPS Bigger Than Yourself powerlifting meet held at @mass_iron earlier this month… #Repost @rps_powerlifting with @make_repost ・・・ From Bigger Than Yourself, Rachel racking up a great total. -------------- Reposted from @ambitious_strength_ Work your ass off, then celebrate. @rmverrill13 blew the platform away today in her 2nd competition ever. This was her first full power meet. She added 40# to her bench and 55# to her deadlift. She is a super woman. I may be biased, but I know a few people who’d agree with me 😉 While studying in her first year of her PhD program, educating graduate school students, and working part-time as a physical therapist she prioritized training and showed that with the right mindset and plan, you can do more than achieve your goals. She walked into this meet hoping for a 600# total. That celebration after working for 610# means everything to me. These are the moments that make me happier than anything to help people realize they are capable of more than they think. @mass_iron thank you for the incredible hospitality and the wonderful venue. Nothing short of amazing! rps_powerlifting the community that surrounds this federation is second to none. I walked in from the outside 3 years ago and felt part of the community immediately. Thank you for setting a lifter first standard! Work hard, then celebrate 👊🏻🎉
There is a little groundswell emerging in the gym of equipped “gear” powerlifters. It started about two years ago with @robert.popp but in the last 6-9 months @brownsteinphotography @mpimentel892 and @dexterbidot have all jumped into the fray! For those of you not familiar, equipped powerlifting means using additional gear (ie, single and multiply briefs, squat and deadlift suits, and bench shirts) to both protect the body and aid in lifting more weight. If anyone is interested in testing the waters of equipped powerlifting, come by and speak to any one of us to get the pitch. #equippedpowerlifting
CUSTOMER TESTIMONIAL — A very inspiring post from one of our newest geared powerlifters @mpimentel892 … #Repost @mpimentel892 with @make_repost ・・・ Yesterday I fell in love with geared lifting, officially. Straps up with in a squat suit was an experience to say the least. The only way to describe geared squats is to do the following: have someone wraps towels around your knees, thighs and hips as hard as possible, then this is the kicker 😂 have someone wrap a towel around your neck and as you squat have them squeeze harder and harder as you squat down. Now I know why people frequently get nose bleeds in geared lifting, the head pressure is amazing. This is only single ply, I could imagine what multi ply feels like 😂. From my reaction to my first time I guess you can call me a masochist 😂. Why geared lifting & not raw? One answer, it’s so fun!! @metfit_trainingfacility is the gym you want for all training goals. With people like @bostonstrengthandpower to call you on your sh*tty form 😂 @robert.popp to provide professional level expertise as not only a head judge but also professional powerlifter @coachrondrago as someone to only be the best spotter but someone to push you with every rep, you’ll be ready for anything. Thanks guys!!
