Took a break from training glutes to do a bench thing. I think that’s 315lbs for 3. I think it’s my first time getting 3 reps outta that. The goals is to make a balanced base to build off of for all my training coming up. It’s a good start. Thanks @jakelabelle_ for the spot and encouragement. Thanks @the_most_sass for the amazing shoot work and encouragement.... Great vibes at @brickhousegym247 . . . Oh yeah, I do personal training I keep forgetting. Let me know if you want to lift weights somewhat efficiently and fun; maybe reach health goals here and there #vagabond #vagrant #strengthandconditioning #powerlifting #bench #benchpress

@bakajennah pick meeeeee

St.Patrick’s day 2013 was the first day I walked into a gym to train. As the universe would align; it was the first day I squatted with Coach Terry of @dakotaweightlifting. And what a day it was. The nine circles of hell has nothing on what this man can do with a single movement. This was minute 90; working on speed squats. . . There is a crisis in the world but we will overcome together. As everything closes and winds down to weather the storm be with your love and rest well.... Thank you to those that let us still live during this time with the things we need. . . . #weightlifting #squats #speedsquats See more

Super fun skill @m_d_carter and I have been working on the past week. It’s still shaky when I sit on the floor but it’s hella more stable since a few days before this. Always super fun to get to train with this 85kg human on my head. I wonder what next we will be doing... . . . Want to learn handbalancing or some aerial straps? Leave me a message here or @wukongstrength and we can book a complementary consult and talk about your goals. ... I take on group classes, personal training clients, private and semi private circus classes and lots more. . . #circusarts #circus #handtohand #handonhead #onearmhandstand #onearmhandstanonhead #flyer #porter #balance #northstarfitness #northstarcircus #northstarcircusarts #crossfitwinnipeg #crosfitwinnipegcircus See more

A delightful PR at 550lbs deadlift today. @zwartben with the capture and post lift cheer. Get you a lifting partner and coach that pushes you and researches constantly to grow and improve. It sounds like you should come to @northstar.fit . Worked up to heavy singles and a 3 by 6 to end. Looking forward to our numbers going up. It’s truly time to optimize training. We have goals. . . .... I have a group class where you cla learn to pick up heavy weights safely as well as learn and clean up your technique. Or do your own training in the space for 2 hours. I also have spots for personal training available. 2nd session of my handstand class begins in 2 weeks. The menu is broad. Come train. #getbettertoday . . #deadlift #hiphinge #powerlifting #deadlifts #northstarfitness #agatsu #agatsuwinnipeg #crossfitwinnipeg #onedayiwillbestrong #gratitude See more

Last week the decision to pull 625lbs in a deadlift became clear to me. As well as how weak I was and how much strength I needed to gain. Pulling 650lbs in a rack pull gave me an idea as to how hard I have to work and what the weight felt like. It’s not bad. Not bad at all. It was inspiring. Few times has every part of my body focused so hard on a singular act not in fear; but with the desire to succeed. I feel gratitude to be able to do these things. . . . I started a group ...class and if you want to up your bench, deadlift and squat. As well as learn a new skill like handbalancing or calisthenics techniques, give me a shout to register! I also take on clients for personal training. All this is run out of @northstar.fit #rackpull #deadlift #powerlifting #strengthandconditioning #strong #agatsu #agatsuwinnipeg #northstarfitness #crossfitwinnipeg #winnipeggym #onedayiwillbestrong

Today marks the first deadlift for the rest of my life! Training with @zwartben as coach. Second phase (pulling focused). 455lbs for 3. Technique needs a lot of work but it felt good. There is much to discover yet. Goal is 625lbs by February 1st. LES GOOOOOO!!!!! . . . I am accepting clients for personal training and have a variety of group classes running. Message me if you want to improve lifting technique, want a space to train at an affordable price under the guidance of ...a coach. Or would be interested in private group classes. . . . #deadlift #deadlifts #powerlifting #coaching #strengthandconditioning #hiphinge #northstarfitness #crossfitwinnipeg #agatsu #onedayiwllbestrong #strong See more
