Just over a week ago, the Aevitas Weightlifting team travelled to the New York State Weightlifting Championship competition, and basically took the whole place by storm!
Our team had its best showing EVER with 15 incredible athletes stepping onto the platform. Every single one of them hit their mark, nailing competition PRs, lifetime PRs, and becoming state champions.
As a team, Aevitas Weightlifting hit nearly 70% of all attempted lifts earning them 11 podium spots and clinching the best overall men’s team!
Check out how everyone did below, and make sure to congratulate these athletes next time you see them in the gym!
