08.01.2022 The WRPF Dec 6th comp was a beauty with a mix of new and veteran lifters all striving to do their best. In the ladies we had Sam Hailey lifting in the 52 kg division and despite some shoulder issues squatted 110 kg, benched her best ever with 67.5 kg and a fairly easy deadlift of 130 kg and a great try but fail with 142.5 kg. So with a total of 307.5 kg Sam won best female lifter. Second was first time lifter Paula Wilson at 63 kg body weight who just got a 95 kg squat and a... strong 65 kg bench and finished with a great 125 kg deadlift for a total of 285 kg. Another first time lifter was Derani Ayres at 58.8 kg bodyweight and despite being in a moon boot for the first half of the year with a severely broken ankle did a nice squat of 85 kg , bench press of 60 kg and a very strong deadlift of 110 kg for a total of 255 kg and 3rd place for her first powerlifting contest. 3 weeks ago Emily Hanley had never thought about ever competing in a powerlifting contest but with some encouragement from her coach Taylor Young she decided to step up and have a go and so had to lose a few kg to get down to 60 kg bodyweight Emily did a very easy 75 kg squat ,37.5 bench press and a 85 kg deadlift for a very good first time total of 197.5.kg .With a few more months of training under her belt Emily will blow those numbers out of the water. First male lifter on the platform was Aldo Paoletti weighing in a very light 84 kg and came away with a 160 kg squat, 100 kg bench and 200 kg deadlift for his best total of 460kg. Tim Boehringer came in at 94.5 kg and after a scary first squat ended up with 190 kg squat, 120 kg bench and 225 deadlift for a total of 535 kg. Tim ended up securing 3td place for his efforts. Brian Jarrot has not been seen training much since he competed in the GPC comp in Canberra on Oct 11th so considering he did a good job to squat 220 kg, bench 120 kg and a solid deadlift of 240kg and total 580kg at 90 kg bodyweight to take second place. Brent Drake had a fair day coming in at 99.2 kg he took first place with a 240 kg squat, 155 kg bench and 265 kg deadlift for a total of 660 kg and then rushed off to Melb to the AC/DC concert. After running comps for the past 21 years under the CAPO banner this was the first contest run under the World Raw Powerlifting Federation banner and there is sure to be many more in the future with this exciting federation.

05.01.2022 Jason Benching 107.5kg

05.01.2022 In my career I’ve been fortunate enough to learn from 2 amazing men, my unbelievably knowledgable husband Laurie butler, and the man who helped me me achieve my dream in winning the Miss Universe title Terry Martinez. In my training career I have been ranked as the best female power lifter over a 25 year period. I won the NABBA Miss Universe Title in the UK and gained many Australian and world records over that time. The knowledge obtained from my teachers and the experie...nce gained from nearly 30 years training and competition experience, has given me a wealth of information to draw from when coaching others. I apply this information when preparing athletes for competition in both bodybuilding or powerlifting to enable them reach their full potential. I was honoured to help Melissa in her preparation for her victory in winning the ANB Victorian bodybuilding titles. I was an extremely proud coach when I was told she walked away with a clean sweep, winning every event and the overall tittle. You were fantastic Melissa Whether you are planning on competing, or simply just want to look and feel your best, contact Supershape Gym and ask about a personal training plan tailored to meet your needs.
