Another busy week at SSG!
More new members on board, and plenty of coaching sessions too (some with forum members).
A bunch of our competitive powerlifters are about 9 weeks out from their comp in April so their training has certainly started to step up a notch.
Scotty is a few weeks out from the Powerlifting Australia nationals so he's starting to hit some decent weights in training. He's also garnered some attention from some Brissy newspapers as he is also the coach of the Australia Paralympic powerlifting team. A real asset to SSG.
Here are his deadlift triples from Friday during photoshoot.

Mark Barham was in on Friday for deadlifts and accessory work.
For those unaware, Mark is ranked 3rd in Australia in powerlifting based on wilks, has a legit all time record of 697.5kg @83kg and has the squat, dead and total records for his class.
Mark's enjoying his time off from powerlifting and is mixing his training up alot.
He still managed to whip out a 280kg deadlift.
