Sometimes things turn out better than you can imagine. For those of you who haven’t seen, Cassidy Duffield became Outlaw Barbell’s first National Champion this weekend. She went 5 for 6, winning gold on the Snatch at 89kg (195.8#), and bronze on the Clean & Jerk at 105kg (231#), for a 194kg total. Her session was nearly flawless, and she executed as if she was lifting in her gym, not on the biggest national Weightlifting stage.
Again, I will write more about Nationals this week, but today I wanted to say congratulations to our new National Champion. She has not been lifting competitively for very long, and she trusted me in every aspect of the prep for the meet (even though she wanted to do some conditioning more than anything in the world).
I could not be more proud to say: congratulations Cass, you are simply the best 69kg lifter in America – thank you, and enjoy every moment of this.

HSPUs have been one of my biggest weaknesses (bad/old shoulder injury). Didn’t do the conditioning today but I did do the 70 HSPUs. It’s not a PR in the traditional sense but it feels just as good. Thanks guys for Connectivity and TOW.
