Jumping in on the #thorchallenge a little late. No barbells were harmed in the making of this video. #lanestrength
Two years ago, cancer tried to take my mom away from this world but she had other plans. To this day, she never misses a single training session unless she is strapped to a hospital bed. Lately, deadlifts have been going well for my mom but we have had to switch to Hatfield Squats due to her constant shaking from seizure medications. She says that I am allowed to video her only if I use her to show others that barbell training can be for anyone. No one expects a new trainee to squat 400 pounds or perform a chin up on the first day. A good coach will teach you how to squat, press, and pull a barbell with the appropriate amount of stress that allows you progress at your own pace. Some coaches like to argue over who's method is right or who's programming is wrong. I have no interest in those sort of things. My purpose is to help others. And I will be able to help many of these people by getting them under a barbell. There are too many people in the world that need our help and more time should be spent on how we can help these people. #lanestrength
Three new PRs for Stacie after this last training cycle; 285lbs squat, 155lbs bench press, and 320lbs deadlift. All the while running Fat Loss 1 on @rpstrength for the past month. She's down a couple a pounds and much stronger. Needless to say, she's very awesome. #lanestrength
Ain't much better than standing up with 405lbs on your back. Congrats, Eddie!! @edsachs1 #lanestrength
I have a lot to be thankful for during my fourth Thanksgiving as a gym owner. But I am most thankful for my mother and her fighting spirit. She never misses a day of training unless she is strapped to a hospital bed. Her stage 4 kidney cancer has thrown her many curveballs the past 5 years but she continues to dig in and fight even harder. Training has made her body stronger after each setback. It has also strengthened her will to continue to live a life that she loves with her family and friends. My mother thinks that she is learning from my coaching but the fact of the matter is that I am learning a lot from her every single day by the way she carries herself: strong, unwavering, compassionate, and understanding. Be thankful for everything you have this Thanksgiving. And definitely have that extra piece of pumpkin pie.
The Lane Strength crew at the @usstrengthlifting Fall Classic 2019! From left to right; Kyle, Chris, Aileena, Jo, and Autumn. We had lifters from 15 to 61 years old and everyone placed in their respective divisions. I'll post a more detailed recap of each individual lifter but here are the final results: Five first place medals and two third places medals. And a combined total of 3,831lbs! I am incredibly proud of everyone's performance but I am much more proud of my athletes stepping up to help each other with warming up and attempt selections. I was unable to be in two places at once so if an athlete was not on the platform, they were busy helping another lifter. Sometimes the weights seem a little lighter when you know that someone else has your back and is there to support you. Being strong and lifting heavy weight is cool but helping lift others up when they need support is way cooler. I am so very proud of the gym culture I have cultivated the last 3 years. Congratulations to all the lifters and thank you spotters, loaders, judges, score table, as well as Angie and Beau for running the best damn powerlifting meet in the country! #lanestrength #startingstrength
