CFE – Meet at Arden & McClaren at 10:00
Mary Harty, mother of Pat Harty and grandmother to the famous Paige n' Cate, has been working with us for a couple months now and is doing a fantastic job. Tuesday was her first attempt at a max deadlift and here it is. A 75# pull with nearly perfect position. How many grandmas do you know who could do this? Are we crazy to have her doing this? Absolutely not, in fact it would be crazy for her to not be doing this.
This was a relatively easy lift for Mary, and she is already capable of lifting significantly more than this, but what's the rush? We are confident that after a couple more exposures to the deadlift we will see Mary pulling over 100# with the same beautiful position you see in the sequence above. This quality of barbell deadlifting builds the type of functional strength that will help Mary remain free from injury and will empower her to perform lifes daily tasks without assistance.
