Small world. I know Will through Instagram (through Dustin).

Just saw his post on my feed.

 
Loved powerlifting - I was perennial runner-up in the 114 lb weight class. Permanent spot as 1st loser.
 
Is Dustin the guy coaching him? He's been great and doing it for nothing.

He might be helping some, I know Will was training at Omaha Barbell with Dustin and Dustin's team (all those guys tagged in Will's IG post). I believe Lupe was his actual coach and training program writer.
 
Update 2nd at Nationals yesterday in Chicago.
562 squat (record), 325 bench, 551 deadlift

Seemed to go a little heavy on his last bench 341 and deadlift 570 attempts and couldn't quite get there.
 
I power lifted in high school for I think three years. Didn’t do it my senior year because football was over at that point and I wanted to focus on my senior year of track, and we had a new coach that no one liked.


Anyway, I got 2nd place at state my sophomore year at 148 lbs. I forget my exact numbers, my bench was below average, my dead lift is as average to above average, but my squat always blew all the other scrawny 148 pounders out of the water. I would open at like 350 and everyone would always look at me like wtf is this kid doing and I’d end up clearing 400 easy.

I had to move up a weight class the next year and was not as competitive, but my squat was still always elite
