Lifting Heavier |||——–|||

By Estella in training with 3 comments

Training has been going really well lately and I’m feeling stronger than ever. I’m currently training for another kettlebell sport competition and this past month I’ve been going to GoodLife Fitness for some barbell workouts with a good friend of mine. I haven’t really done much in terms of barbell training since most of my weight lifting  is focused around kettlebells. I did some lifting at StrengthBox several months ago and this was my 4th time in the gym this month lifting/squatting/pressing barbells. Here’s a video of my PR so far, where I lifted 265lbs. I did a PR of 3 reps total. Not too bad considering that barbells have been a rare occurrence in my training. I hope to change that though! My ultimate goal would be to lift more, get a 300lb deadlift PR then work up from that. Perhaps compete one of these days just for the experience and fun of it all.

    I just came across this, and your deadlifting is amazing! Can you squat this much as well?

      Thanks Rick! I think my heaviest squat to date is 215lbs. I really don’t train with barbells that much but love it whenever I do!

        Most interesting how your high-rep kettlebell work translates into significant low-rep barbell strength. BTW, have you ever tested yourself to see what your best one-rep max kettlebell lift is?

About Stronger than Unbroken

Stronger than Unbroken is a personal blog I started to show that true strength comes from within. It is both a physical and mental battle. Strength comes from every obstacle and personal goal I have had to overcome. With each experience, comes confidence and the drive to become better and stronger than when I first started.
