@suggylifts: These moments are irreplaceable. This sport is a testament to someone’s ability to get knocked down (like literally knocked down) time after time and have the belief and persistence to just keep getting up and trying again. Weightlifting to me is a way to reveal my strength beyond the weight on the bar. Its about the ability to show up day after day, and believe that I am capable of incredible things, even when life is heavy and you have yet to prove to yourself you CAN do it! These moments are few and far between and those of us who spend our life working towards them know they don’t come without days of doubt, physical pain, and sacrifices that seem so silly to those who aren’t in it. In the past couple months, I’ve learned how valuable it is to find true joy in the process. That is where these moments are made. The ebs and flows of this sport are undeniable and when you are in them, you feel them strongly. Don’t put your worth as an athlete or human in those valleys or peaks. It’s okay to embrace them and feel them fully, but don’t let them determine who you are or what you can enjoy! @torokhtiy told me to enjoy the journey. And this is what I want for you too. We hear it all the time! I want you ( and me ) to actually apply it❤️‍🔥 Nationals in 23 days — as always this is only the beginning✍️ #olympicweightlifting #cleanandjerk #type1warrior #type1strong #t1dlookslikeme
