25.01.2022 Thanks to Queensland Government we now have a heap of new equipment to start our Olympic Weightlifting and Strength program at Proserpine State High School in 2021. Please contact us for details and bookings. We have also enjoyed teaching students at Proserpine State School today !

25.01.2022 Number three on our top 5 lifts of the year goes to @matthewlydement for this Commonwealth Record snatch at 166kg. This snatch coupled with his 190 clean & jerk... gave him and Australian Record in the 109kg weight class. Pretty much since the Australian Open in 2020 Matty was in a war path, Pr after Pr and Record after Record. He continues to push for an Olympic spot in 2021 and if he keeps going the way he’s going we could be calling him an Olympian by the end of the year. @qldweightlifting #theweightliftingplatform #twp #weightlifting #cleanandjerk #snatch #training #heavy #lifting #athlete #internationalnews #comp #competition #workout #squats #news #media #melbourne #sport #train #community #stories #gym #weights @awfcomau
