I have been working out with weights for a few years
now, and about a year ago I decided to go into power lifting competitions predominantly bench pressing as I knew
it was my strongest discipline. I hooked up with Chris Buford and I told him what my plans were. He totally agreed
with me and encouraged me to go into competing as he also thought I had what it took.in my weight category.
Chris designed a dietary programme for me which I followed
strictly and saw some immediate changes after a couple of weeks. He also designed a bench press programme which we followed
twice a week religiously. With the programmes he
designed for me I got stronger week after week, and in November 2009 I had my first ever power lifting competition (BDFPA)
which was the regional qualifiers for the British championships, which I won.
I then intensified my training with Chris, which made me get stronger than I was, Chris
kept encouraging me during and after every session which got me ready mentally and focused. I recently competed in the
BDFPA power lifting British championship on the 6th of March 2010 in the 125kg category which I won and was crowned British
champion and also narrowly missed breaking the British record in my weight category.
Due to this win I was
invited to compete at the world championships in Russia in April 2010 and the European championship in Malta in
October 2010 which I am now in the gym training for. I know by Gods grace it will be another success story for me and the
team.
