Judged by RJ Jackson

It was a pleasure working with RJ.  She is very knowledgeable of USAWA lifting, rules and techniques and gave me some insights for the future.  With swing, drive up with legs.  With cheat curl, knees must be straight, but heels can rise.  Take advantage of this.

Total Session was 2 hours.

For future USAWA competition, I need to remember to bring my weight belt, rule book and records list.  My original plan was to complete Q3 Postal, IAWA World Postal and only 2 record lifts.  I ended up having enough time to do a full slate of 5 record lifts.

Shoes - Trainers, Deadlift, Olympic
