Learn To Lift Bootcamp Glasgow - Records Updated
We absolutely love performance goals and as part of our Bootcamps in Glasgow we keep track of the biggest lifts performed for some of our big exercises.
In particular these include Squat, Bench Press and Deadlift.
There were some huge lifts last year
Despite the challenges of 2020 and the vastly reduced amount of training time due to lockdowns, some big new records were set.
Some of the highlights included:
🔹Scott hitting the huge milestone of a 200 kg Squat. This was a big goal achieved for him, as was the 100 kg Bench Press that seen him take the equal third spot in that category.
🔹Eilidh setting a new mark of 147.5 kg on the Squat for the women to try and beat. She also entered the record board for Deadlifts in equal third spot with an excellent 160 kg.
🔹Agne knocking out a massive 90 kg Bench Press and 170 kg Deadlift as new top lifts to beat. Plus a huge 145 kg High Bar Squat for the second biggest female Squat in Bootcamp history.
🔹Ross claiming an impressive 130 kg Squat for third spot despite having only been training a short amount of time.
🔹Neil with a 115 kg Bench Press to equal the mark John had set in second place, a mere 5 kg under the record and looking like there is more to come too.
🔹Lana with a massive 165 kg Deadlift for a solid second place in that category and also only 5 kg behind the leading mark.
🔹Chris B achieving a huge goal he had set of hitting a 200 kg Deadlift and in doing so making his way onto the record board.
For the full list of records have a look at the graphics attached.
It's more than just the records
There were many more superb lifts and new personal bests beyond those on the record boards.
In fact some of our favourite lifts weren't records at all, they were huge personal bests for Bootcamp members who had worked very hard to achieve them.
We do love some friendly competition to push everyone on and the records serve as excellent motivation but perhaps the most important factor of all is how supportive everyone in the group is of each other.
The atmosphere when people go for big lifts is electric, everyone is so supportive of each other and cheer each other on regardless of whether they are about to have their own record beaten or not.
We can't wait until lockdown is over and we can get back to smashing records and hitting big PBs!
