2017 Australian Weightlifting National Championships

This year the 2017 Australian Weightlifting National Championships were held in the sunny state of Tasmania. Kush, Jack and Andy all qualified as well as our close friends Yannick and Lady from Shred Barbell Club.

Kush dropped weight once again to the U48kg class in the hopes of coming third. unfortunately we missed out, but as usual we’ve had an awesome learning experience and I can’t weight to see her get back to training and come back next year bigger and better than ever!

This was Jack’s first Nationals, and definitely not his last. He already has the strength to not only qualify and do really well on the national stage, we now just have to make him consistent in his technique so that we can hit his best numbers on the platform! Really proud of you Jack, stepping out of your comfort zone and giving this ‘trash comp’ a real go 😀

Can’t wait for next years nationals!
