Well, my wifes next contest is June 2. I'm more nervous than she is! Brookpark, Ohio Rec Center. She's got her singlet, high top RED sneakers, THICK lock-down lifting belt....and she is ready to ROCK! Deadlift-Bench-Squat This is a sanctioned meet, so she has a GOOD chance of setting a new American Record at this meet. Fingers crossed  I'll try to get pics if I'm not too nervous I drop the camera!  |

WAHOO for her! She becoming a celebrity in the gym. She actually had a crowd watching her squat 235 the other day. ALL THE WAY DOWN....hold 3 seconds...THEN up! She deadlifted 225. (she's done better!) Her weakness is her bench...125-135 on a good day. Not bad for a 50 year old grandma...who is only a few years out of GPS surgery, and weighs, give or take....135 lbs. Gotta swallow my ego. Nobody asks, "so, where is Frank? or "Hey, How is Frank doing?" It's all about her! ;D ...and I'm ok with that.....I think . Very proud of my little powerlifter! |

Marriage is all about both of you, Frank. Whatever good happens to either of you should make the other one happy. And I know you are.
Please give her my best and hope she takes no prisoners!

I think the venue starts around 10:00 am...and goes to completion. The registration doesn't show start/stop times by category. Would be great to meet you. Stop in if you can. Just look for the shortest couple there. That be us |

WOW!! That is so awesome! I think I can speak for alot of women by saying bench 125 is AMAZING! Benching is def my weakness, I have never been able to do more than 100 for one rep.
Wish her good luck for me! ;D
