Congrats to Chris and Geoff at Nationals
Two athletes and a coach from our gym made the trek to Toronto for the 2009 Canadian Weightlifting Championships during the weekend of Jan 17th. We spend the before checking out Toronto and the downtown area. On Saturday our boys competed. This was their first big contest and did well when faced pitted against lifters that have been competing for many years.


Chris Brennan has been training with us since the beginning if last November. This light weight lifter (56kg) has natural talent and ended up lifting well and taking home the bronze metal.

Geoff Lawerence, a lifter in the 105kg category did not medal, but we are very proud with his performance adding 2kg's to his snatch personal record.

These young lifters have a big future ahead of them.

We put them through the paces of a Oly Workout (max snatch and clean&jerk doubles + max triple back squat, and then finished with on their "Work outs of the day" (WOD). THe WOD for today was as many rounds possible of 5 burpees, 10 dumbbell swings and then 15 situps. The Crossfit guys have stamina!
