Competed at ProRaw 12 on the 23rd of April 2022.

This was my first competition outside of IPF/PA conditions and I only made the decision to do so 6 weeks out after initially entering the "sleeves division".


Weighed in 79.5kg/175lb for the 80kg class.

Squat - 3/3 making 280kg/617lb, a 5kg PB to my best training squat this prep.

Bench - 2/3 making 140kg/308lb, a 2kg competition PB

Deadlift - 2/3 making 310kg/673lb, missing 322.5kg for the win

Total was 730kg

A worthy congratulations to Ben Smith for winning ProRaw 12 and Tommy-Lee McGrath on 2nd place!

One thing I didn't mention in the video that I didn't know about until afterwards, was that I later was awarded the Gregg Gordon Spirit Award. I was shocked to hear this but also touched at the sentiment and proud that my attitude and love of powerlifting was evident for those around me.

I'd like to again thank the organisers of the meet, Markos and Emad, for putting together a stellar competition.

To all the volunteers (refs, spotters/loaders, pack up and set up crew, tech table etc) that contributed their time and skills so that this weekend could run -- thank you.

Thanks to Mat and Brad for handling this ball of anxiety on the day, Josh for the videos as well as Anthony for teaching me to squat out of a monolift during my prep.

Of course to my fiance Billie, to my friends, training partners at TSF and other support networks, your support has been phenomenal!

Many others too who contributed to this performance, so to you I thank you.
