It may be a surprise to you if you don't know, but I'm a powerlifter.  Well kind of.  I powerlift and very much enjoy getting stronger, I haven't competed yet so am I a "powerlifter?"  I'm not sure, but I enjoy picking up heavy things and setting them back down.  That being said this lady is AWESOME!

I love seeing videos of older people trying new things, and getting involved in recreational things.  This is Shirley Webb, she is 78 and you don't want to mess with her! She is strong! She recently got into powerlifting and Shirley can deadlift 225lbs! My PR (personal record) is only 250lbs, so she's closing in on me.

How awesome is this?!

Ever wonder what I look like when I powerlift?  Not nearly as cool as Ms. Webb, but here's a video of me squatting 140lbs last night! My form is not completely on point, but it's still a PR!
