SOMETIMES A PR IS MORE THAN JUST A PR I have waited a couple days before posting this video from this past weekends Women’s UGSS. Like most of you I kept up with this event via social media due to a prior engagement. The elitefts Women broke many personal records last weekend and most have already been shared on this page. There is one I held back on and am posting now. Julia Ladewski has been with elitefts for more years than neither her nor I want to say. She was our first sponsored female athlete and may very well have been the first publicly sponsored female from any company. Others did have athletes they sponsored but they kept them tucked away in the back ground. We shoved Julia right up front and center exactly the same as we did all the guys. Over the years I watched her graduate with a degree in exercise science, work as a strength and conditioning intern, get hired as a strength and conditioning coach at the University of Buffalo, become a wife and mother, become an elite level Powerlifter, except a job in the private sector as a strength a conditioning specialist, compete on the National level in Figure and Physique, create her own business and now has become one of the most sought after online strength and physique coaches in the world. She has a skill set that very few process (if anyone!). I have watched her sacrifice for elitefts, her family and herself in her pursuit of helping others. I have watched her Live, Learn and Pass On I have seen her not only over come adversity but become better because of it. I have seen her break hundreds of PR’s but the one this weekend impressed me the most because she is no longer just an athlete, no longer just a coach, she is now a mentor to more than 10 other elitefts Women. She has cut the path for the others to follow. She is a women of strength, will, character and integrity. Through her actions and words she will help them all break more PR’s and more importantly become what is known as “elitefts”. This is why - sometimes a PR is more than just a PR.
