Team Texas Weightlifting

This past Saturday we had the pleasure of having Team Texas Weightlifting and a few others come in for a training session.  It was awesome to have several elite level weightlifters come in and hit some heavy training.  From Team Texas we had Jason Starks, Erin "Apache" Garcia, David Cho, and a couple others (sorry guys I'm bad with names for the first few times we meet).  They also brought Spencer Moorman (Erins's sweetheart) who competes for California Stregth and is a world class lifter, Mike Calelly who is a great lifter and has some of the most beautiful technique having been coached by Jimmy Schmidt of the Sports Palace in San Fransico. Mike Huszka was training as well.  Mike's dad is a two-time Olympian as well as a  multi-time Masters World Weightlifting Champion.  Dane and Derek Burk who are getting into competing and are the sons of my mentor and close friend Dan Burk the Head Football Coach and Athletic Director at Bay City.  David Claiborne (owner of Genesis Athletic Performance) and Chris Gillen (a coach at Genesis) both of whom I coach in the Olympic lifts.  It was a great day of heavy and explosive lifting and was topped off with Jason Starks hitting 200kg clean.
