Lodrina Cherne just killed it again!
Here is a recap in her own words:

I lifted in the USAPL American Open in Boston on December 5th in the equipped 63kg class. This was my first full power equipped meet where I did a quick five-week training cycle to break in my suits/shirt and learn the lifts to competition standard. My goal was to get a total and I succeeded with a 314lb squat, 198lb bench, and 380lb deadlift. This was good for second place in my division and a really exciting way to change up training.

The following weekend I traveled to Georgia for the USAPL Georgia & Southern States Championship where I competed raw in the 63kg class. I wanted to place well and earn team points for Goggins Force; the better the placing, the more team points that are added to the team score. I had a 275lb squat, 165lb bench, and 358lb deadlift. This was a tie in many ways: a tie of my best raw total with no peaking for this meet, a tie for first place in the 63 class on weight lifted, and a tie on points between my team and the other team in contention for the state title. The tie in my weight class went back to bodyweight where I won for being the lighter lifter and the team count back went to overall first place wins. On count back, my winning first place in the 63’s also secured the team title for Goggins Force.
