Great meet yesterday put on by Bobby Sirkis, Tom Witherspoon, and the Spoon Barbell club. 5 sessions with over 80 lifters and it went off without a hitch. For those of you who are unaware this meet happens every year at the historic Van Alstyne Convention and Fine Arts center. AKA- Tom’s barn. However, I looked around today and at one point either competing or spectating were 2 Olympians, 2 Olympic alternates, multiple World Team members, and multiple National Record holders. Lifting in a barn… awesome is the least that can be said. Here are some video highlights from today that my wife managed to catch:
