24.01.2022 For those of you who are unaware of slaughterhouse gyms (SH) origins, here is a bit of history. In 2005 two brothers Wayne and Shaune Howlett opened Xtreme Physique Gym in main road moonah. It was considered an all purpose commercial gym which also specialised in catering for hardcore body builders and powerlifters. Xtreme, as many refered to it as, was equipped of the largest collection of plate loaded Hammer Strength equipment of any gym in Tasmania. No expense was spared. ...Continue reading

19.01.2022 Powerlifting in Tassie is huge at the moment and only getting bigger and better! The main reason for that is one man , Wayne Howlett!! Owner/founder of slaughte...rhouse Gym along with his brother Shaune , he is also the president of WRPF Australia - Tassies biggest powerlifting federation! Along with running some of the biggest and best meets the country has seen Wayne boasts some terrific numbers on the platform aswell, most have heard his name but few actually know numbers , In my opinion he was years ahead of the game . His first ever comp was in s/ply in 2005 where he went 300/200/280 @102 b/w ! He chucked the single ply on again 8 years later and went on to become the first Australian to total 1000kg in 2013 hitting 420/270/320-1010 @126 b/w He squatted 350kg bare knees in 2012 to hit his first 900kg total with 350/235/315 at the CAPO state titles in Hobart. Knee wraps then became the norm in our sport and Wayne boosted his squat to 390 in competition with his best to date raw total of 950 at PR7 in 2015 - 390/230/330 , Wayne has also benched 250 in a single lift competition in Finland 2013 weighing 125.8kg! Wayne has represented Australia multiple times over the years in country's such as Argentina, New Zealand, Latvia, Finland and his second home Russia. It's his drive and passion for the sport over a 15 year span that has made Tassie powerlifting what it is today ! Some of the biggest names in the world of powerlifting have lifted in Tassie purely because of him. He may be on a Government paid holiday at the moment but his lifting days are far from over , I can tell you last week he squatted 340x3 and has 360x2 planned next week in his words the 340 felt like an empty bar lol hes also currently weighing over 130kg!! (The pic is myself, Wayne and my late brother Shayne R.I.P after we flew to Melbourne to watch him win the 125 class at Pro Raw 7) See more

19.01.2022 Long time coming! Well done Mitch Lee so proud

18.01.2022 Slaughterhouse gym does not only produce champion powerlifters!!! Here is Shaune Howlett’s bodybuilding progress as he contemplates competing in the near future.

15.01.2022 Wayne Howlett is a legend of Australian powerlifting. The term is used way too loosely, but its a perfect fit for Wayne. While some lifters compete only in one ...fed, one country, even one city, maybe one weight class, either raw or equipped, either full meet or single lift, Wayne has done it all, and then some. Wayne has competed with affiliates from the IPF, WPC, GPA, WRPF and ProRaw. He has competed in Latvia, Russia, Finland, Argentina and Australia. In Australia he has competed in Tasmania, Victoria and NSW. As a meet director he has held Nats for CAPO and WRPF, he has held Worlds for GPA. Wayne has competed raw, multiply and single ply. He has competed at Worlds in full meets and bench only. He simultaneously held the Australian All Time Records in the 125kg class raw - 950kg, 125kg class equipped with 970kg and the 140kg class equipped with 1010kg. That 1010kg total is the first 1000kg total ever in Australia, and still the highest equipped total ever here in Oz. Wayne has also held the biggest raw All Time Record in Australia on numerous occasions, despite only weighing just over 130kg at the time, going back and forth with his good mate Odell Manuel. Wayne also works tirelessly behind the scenes in making sure Big Dogs is a huge success, he is known and respected the world over, he has contacts everywhere. Australia has had some great ambassadors over the years, but none have done more than Wayne has. Australian powerlifting is in a much better place because of the efforts of Wayne Howlett.
