Great lifting across the board at today's Coventry BDFPA Divisional qualifier!
The gym record board is due a major rearrangement now; always good news :D
Thanks to Gareth for organising the ENTIRE TRIP and to Nathan for coming along to help out with loading and advice!
It was good to see our newer members continuing to smash PRs at meets. There was some massive progress for many. Off the top of my head, Scott and Gareth shattered their previous Squat bests by over 12.5 kilos and Jake raised his deadlift PR by 17.5 kg!
