You got me motivated. I'm 73 years old and started doing deadlifts. I'm at 275 pounds and I weight 170 pounds. Haven't started squats yet. Working on one thing at a time right now.
I’ve been a martial artist for 48 years, lean and mean, as it were. Nine years ago I was hit by a car while riding my motorcycle. My martial arts was pretty much done at that point. Depression and all that ensued, and so I decided to start lifting weights for my upper body. As I will likely require a knee replacement at some point, leg work is out of the question. I am also limited on my upper body weights as my left shoulder still bothers me a lot. I landed on my left side…so. In any event, you are an inspiring young lady to watch. For the record, I am 66 yrs old. I will stay fit till the end of days. It’s just in my nature. Congrats on your lift….keep charging!
Watching you barely get out from under that bar on that missed lift makes me appreciate the "old school" Power Rack I train in - with 4 corner posts, high pins, and low bars! We will have none of that risk......
Your squat form was beautiful. You have a really strong back as there was no good morning happening and no knee caving either. You might look into a stiffer belt for the heaving lifting sessions.
Aw I was so happy for you with these 3 exercises. well done 💪💪👏👏 love watching your videos. I'm 61 and my personal best was...deadlift 105 kg... back squat 75 kg and bench 35 kg.. been training for 4years. But i have got frozen shoulder now 😪. But working with physio to get it fixed 🤞 see you on your next video 😘😘
Can't wait for the bodybuilding transformation! I think you will find less injuries and your physique will especially change and lines that you haven't seen will come in and we will see your amazing genetics come alive even more. ❤ 😍 💖 ❣ 💕 💘
you easily could have pulled 375 on the deadlift depending on grip and width. I think the rule of thumb is 25 percent heavier than squats being possible. But its also a balance because you don't want to feel that the next day when you have mom things to do.
Awesome video and congrats on the new PRs. I know you've been concentrating on core strength as you've stated in your recent videos post partum. Lord knows everyone can use more core strength. My question is why are you using a weight belt for lifts if your core is strong from concentrating on it? I'd like to hear your thoughts on core strength and weight belt usage.
What is it with neighbors and mowing the lawn? We have a 1 acre lot and in the summer it's a backyard paradise. We also have neighbors on each side of us who have lots that might be a quarter of an acre, yet, they both feel the need to spend hours mowing their lawns nearly every day. I can mow our lawn with a hand mower faster than they can mow their little lots with the riders and I do it half as frequently (and with a quiet electric mower). I think they must fantasize that they're Dale Earnhardt on those things and they can't wait to get out a twirl around their yards every day. Sorry.. Rant over.

That’s so awesome!!
Great but squats will improve your deadlift even more and vice versa.
Good for you! Deadlifts make everything better
Dude, you rock! 👏

Superb technical squatting , great depth you made that look so easy
Thank u!
Would you lift more weight by placing the bar lower on the back. Like how Coach Mark Rippitoe teaches?
I enjoy the way you have evolved as an older lifter / crosfitter its enjoyable to see your excitement understanding where you are in your life.
That mindset check made so much difference!
Watched you for a long time and the only lifter (power, oly, bodybuilders) I still follow. Good on ya.
I am so excited for you. Working back from an injury.
I love your attitude, work ethic, and enthusiasm! Great work on your lifts.
Impressive! :D I have been doing powerlifting for a while, but just started dipping my toes in Olympic lifting and wow it's hard but I love it
i agree its so technical. hard to switch from pl
You are an amazing inspiration to all of us!! You make it look ever so easy!!!!!!
You’re so motivating! I’m back to lifting because you’ve proven you can overcome set backs! Can’t wait for your next show! ♥️

I honestly thought you had a few more kilos in you for the deadlift. Awesome work. You are inspiring to this 56 year old

Very impressive...be proud!
I hit that like and hit that sub. Thanks for sharing! Keep it up. Excited for more strength and more content from you!

Hello! Thanks for the video! I have a question, why are you not doing weightlifting anymore?
I have herniated disc and i am afraid to do heavy....i am jealous
you easily could have pulled 375 on the deadlift depending on grip and width. I think the rule of thumb is 25 percent heavier than squats being possible. But its also a balance because you don't want to feel that the next day when you have mom things to do.
Awesome
*MOM STRENGTH RULES* 💪👸 👏😎
awesome job🤘🏼💪🏼
Those shoes look very comfortable plus look very cool... Which model are those Kristine?
Awesome lifts by the way! :D

Uff... so beautiful und strong.. awesome!! 💪💪💪
Holy pope
Young girls should strive to have a physique like yours, rather then a skinny Instagram model.
Proof you can be strong and muscular while maintaining your femininity.
