FUMA Power Team Sets 13 State Records

On Saturday, 3 cadets and 1 staff member competed in the 100% Raw Masters Nationals Powerlifting Meet just up the road in Zion Crossroads. Cadets Sequan Swint and Yaqub Abdur-Rahman have competed previously at the AAU Nationals meet. Cadet Abram Pastore, on the other hand, was a newcomer to competition. In spite of this, he was able to deadlift a whopping 209% of his bodyweight while establishing 4 state records in a relatively young organization along the way. Our 2 more experienced lifters enjoyed big days as well. Cadet Swint was able to beat his previous meet total by 34 pounds, going up in every lift. Pound for pound, our strongest lifter, Cadet Abdur Rahman added 29 pounds to his previous total. His 4 lift total was 6.3X his bodyweight, which establishes his place as an elite lifter.
