The abpu british 2019

The weekend of the 10th to the 12th of May was a busy one. With lifting from the Friday to the Sunday we had a handful of clients compete at their frist British and each and every one of them did myself, and themselves proud.

 British Champion - Dennis O'Shea. -140kg Raw.

Dennis went into this competition just looking to improve on the last one. He managed a 5kg squat PB and a 2.5kg deadlift PB - this was more than enough to secure him that Gold Medal and an invite to the World Championship. 

Squat - 170kg
Bench - 132.5kg 
Deadlift - 252.5kg 
​

Second Place in Britain - Sarah Jayne Riley.  - 90kg Raw.

Sarah's training had gone fairly well going into this one and it showed on the day. With a 12.5kg total PB she managed a 7.5kg PB on squat and a 5kg bench PB (giving her the biggest bench of all the girls in the Daniel Lee Fitness group, for now...). 

Squat - 100kg
Bench Press - 75kg
Deadlift - 135kg
​Total - 310kg

Third place in Britain - Chanel Hanes. - 67.5kg Raw.

With a bit of a shaky day Chanel still managed to secure a Bronze medal in a tough class. 
She managed - 

Squat - 107.5kg
Bench Press - 62.5kg
Deadlift - 132.5kg 

With a more settled build up to the next competition there will definitely be some big PBs in store for her!

All of these guys will be competing again later this year - watch out for them. They're already making massive improvements.
