Lifting Technique

Lift starts with the bar in the extended position. Feet must remain in contact with the floor throughout the lift (no hooking bench support with feet/legs). Bar must touch the chest and be fully extended on each press – stopping terminates the lift. No bouncing bar off chest. Shoulder and rear must stay in contact with the bench during lifts. If necessary, plates may be placed under lifters’ feet. No baggy clothing, belts, wraps or lifting suits. Decisions of our judges are final.

Lifting Time
Participants will begin by completing their max rep bench press. Registration and Bench Press will begin at Noon. Race will commence after all racers have completed their lift (approximately 1:00pm)

Van Courtland Track Club 5k

Great time last night by all(Lisa, Jai, Christine, Avery, Max, Dwayne, Ricky, Dan, Dave, and Brian) who ran the Van Courtland Track Club 5k last night. It was a little hot but running through the woods, up and over the hills was quite a fun challenge. Congrats to all especially Lisa and Christine for placing third in their age groups.

Hope others can join us next time. There will be two more of these races over the summer, Van Courtland Track Club’s 5k summer series is every other Thursday. There are 2 more races left Aug 5th and Aug 19. The races start at 7p cost $5 and they have a bag check.

Drowning Doesn’t Look Like Drowning

For all you swim/tri/Ironman people, take a quick read:
