Huge congratulations to TSF head coach Joshua Luu who made his international coaching debut this week at the IPF Junior World Championships in South Africa.
Josh made the trip to coach his remote athlete Brendan Tian who placed 12th in the junior 83kg class 👏🏽✨
He was also the assistant platform coach for seven other lifters of the Australian junior team.
Huge week, hugely proud 🫡🤝🏾🏆🇦🇺
punching out a 160kg squat to start the comp prep!
Rich is competing in a months time and we’ve started practicing heavier singles for the lead up.
It wasn’t long ago that 160kg was scary territory for him — now it’s easy weight !

Proud to have sent two lifters to New Strength Era at Nexus Melbourne over the weekend!
Lewis competed in his second comp ever and again went 9/9 with PBs in all lifts. He managed a 50kg total PB since October. From having never touched a barbell three years ago to his first ever 200kg deadlift, we couldn’t be more proud to have seen Lewis have such a great day out.
Doug took on only this third comp ever at the tender age of 78. And his perfect run continues with his 3rd 9/9 result and a 15kg PB total compared to Nationals in April. A crowd favourite, we are proud as punch to be alongside Doug and his lifting journey. Next stop; Oceania Championships in November!
Shout out to super coach Jeremy Borzillo for perfect game day coaching, 18/18 ain’t so bad -chef’s kiss-
Thanks to Nexus Performance Melbourne and Jack Hamilton | Online Powerlifting Coach for hosting a great event and to all the volunteers who make it happen.
Great day out for the team 😁

In your 90-minute session, an experienced powerlifting coach will analyse, assess and then optimise your technique across the barbell lifts. We’ll make adjustments to stance, grip, bar placement, tempo and balance to find the strongest technique for you.
Maddie with some easy deadlifts at 90kg!!
Maddie is primarily a rower but is using powerlifting training to build her strength and power in the off season.
Working towards a powerlifting comp before boat season starts over the summer 💪
