The 4thannual Brickhouse Power Challenge was a huge success this year!
The meet was one of the largest hosted in Manitoba with 56 lifters competing, 3 of which represented Special Olympics Canada. Thanks to the expansion of Brickhouse Gym, we were able to comfortably hold the meet with the same set up as last year and run 2 sessions – using the newly renovated side as the athlete warm up area.
Several provincial records were broken at this meet:
Johanna Theroux – 72 Open 82.5 kg bench press
Sylvie Dube-Forslund – 84 Open 190 kg deadlift and 430 kg total
Lynell Johnson – 52 Masters 1 82.5 kg squat, 52.5 kg bench press, 95 kg deadlift, and 230 kg total
Teresa Vanderzanden – 84 Masters 1 107.5 kg deadlift and 232.5 kg total
Daniel Mondor – 93 Junior 235.5 kg squat
Nhan Nguyen – 83 Open 250 kg squat
Brent Smith – 83 Masters 1 and Masters 2 182.5 kg squat, 125 kg bench press, and 502.5 kg total
Our best lifters were Sylvie Dube-Forslund and Nhan Nguyen. Sylvie totaled 430 kg at 82.70 kg body weight, registering an IPF coefficient of 661.22. Nhan totaled 672.5 kg at 78.40 kg body weight, registering an IPF coefficient of 705.83.
An event like this is not possible without all of our volunteers. We owe a huge thank you to the following people who offered up their Friday/Saturday to make this meet run as smoothly as it did!
