Today I want highlight one of the better comebacks of the year. One year ago Shawn Rider attempted a 310# clean and it folded him together cracking his fibula in half causing three pins and a plate to be his solution. In case you haven’t seen that video. Here it is.
Shawn Rider 310# Accident
On the other end of that injury 1 year later Shawn approached a 141kg (310.2#) clean and jerk with redemption in mind. He nailed it. This is one for the books.
He thanked me for giving him the legs and strength to make this happen through the 7/13 cycle and noted that it would not have happened without that cycle. Shawn, your earned this and worked for it and I’m happy to have helped you achieve what you did. Great comeback.
Happy New Year Shawn.
