Hello facebook land! For the past 8 months Cindy and I have enjoyed the pleasure of training with our little buddy Sam Wheaton. Sam just turned the ripe old age of 14 back in June and a couple weeks later competed in his first powerlifting competition the Canadian Powerlifting Federation nationals in Amherst, Nova Scotia Canada where he broke 2 national records and 2 World Powerlifting Congress world records in the bench press and deadlift. Sam qualified for WPC Worlds this November in West Palm Beach Florida and will be accompanying us as members of Team Canada to compete. We are trying to help Sam raise money to be the youngest lifter in the history of the CPF to compete at worlds. Sams dad Dale Wood set up a bank account to help with this cause. No donation is too small and every cent brings our young buddy one step closer to this dream. Sam has taken to powerlifting like a duck to water, we believe his 511 280lb frame may have something to do with this :-) In Florida Sam will be up against some stiff competition but we have high hopes he will bring his A game and has a legitimate shot at 2 more world records. You can send electronic transfers to sam2powerliftingworlds@gmail or you can contact Dale Wood directly to arrange other options at 902-660-2000 Here is a video of Sam at nationals setting his deadllift world record in his Rescindx Apparel Singlet and socks. Thank you for your time and please share our message so that this young fella can get to worlds.
