The 2019 Cornhusker State Games Powerlifting Meet is in the books! Congratulations to all of our lifters - it was great to see all the PRs that were set yesterday by both new and experienced competitors. Also, a big thank you goes out to everyone who helped at the meet - especially to @tmjholm for all the coaching and handling of lifters (which gave me a chance to compete, for which I’m doubly thankful!). I wasn’t able to get a photo of everyone lifting, so my apologies go to anyone whose photo I don’t have here. #testifystrengthandconditioning #startingstrengthaffiliategym #cornhuskerstategames2019 #powerlifting
