For The Athlete, Through The Athlete. 2026 Recap: The Team BigBodyXX branch of Flexx Training Systems came in on the weekend with an 88% hit rate. An average or 1 missed lift amongst 4 total athletes. Amanee going 8/9, Funmi going 9/9 and had zero red lights on the day, Anthony going 7/9, and Timothy going 8/9. Only 1 lift missed off of strength for the weekend.

Amanee Starks - Amanee weighing in at 69.5 matched her squat and DL PR’s and PR’d her bench by 7.5kg giving her a 7.5kg total PR with more in the tank on DL. I’m happy about her attitude, her focus, and her energy especially how she handled a severe glute and QL injury shortly after the JTB performance in March. Amanee is EXTREMELY coachable and makes my job seem less to help her. I couldn’t ask for a better athlete and person to work with. Solid performance to build off of as we enter deep fall/winter training.

Funmi Akeredolu - Funmi and I have been working together for 3.5 blocks. She has managed to make huge improvements in such a short time. We hit her first 185kg (407lbs) squat, PR’d Bench all time with 105kg, and hit her first 227.5kg DL (501lbs). +7.5 squat, +2.5 bench, +12.5 DL, +27.5 in 3.5 blocks of work. Funmi is a sweet heart to the core, a very kind and calm soul, and an exceptional athlete. Super easy to work with as well, and at her trajectory I see her doing scary things on the platform and making a case for a new women’s weight class needed in the sport.

Anthony Wixon - Ant had a crazy eventful spring and summer. His occupation and obligations are not normal for what your typical PL’ers routine would entail. Lots travel, weekly to monthly flights, and training could be in a different country or state month to month. He also had some big moves made in his life that required additional energy and focus there. Nonetheless his desire to keep showing up stay consistent was unwavering. These results manifested simply because of his effort and care for his lifting career. He does this for the love of the game. He’s new to the sport but he’s talented and he’s hungry. +15 squat (270kg), +10 DL (325kg), +22.5kg on the total overall and 5lbs lighter weigh in than his first meet. Weighing in @ 86 on the day, Ant has so much

Getting fat out here in Sicily, having the time of my life with my wife and brother/athlete Domenico today. Unreal experiences being made, still working, still training, just changing the scenery for these 8 days.

Unbelievably grateful for this opportunity and so glad I allowed myself to pull the trigger and visiting my roots.

Got a lot of travel for work headed my way in the fall so why not go to the land of Paesanos E bambino’s and live before the team goes meet after meet all the way into nationals and I myself having to hit my yearly meet quota.

250 Dub

180 single hit 190 last week played it smart today

220 Dub chose to take light end as I had to push primary pulls into same day as squat/bench due to travel itinerary yada yada.

Tomorrow we go island hopping.

IPF Worlds 2026 Athlete Recap: Zahra Padia

SQ: 240kg, missed 3rd (depth) (would have been 2.5kg PR)

BN: 130kg (2.5kg PR)

DL: 240kg (5kg PR)

Total: 610kg (2kg ATPR) (5th place off bodyweight)

The first six months of the past 12 months Zahra spent time losing some weight to the degree of around 8kg along with some life adjustments. As of the past six months, we were able to regain that weight healthily, and get training back into full swing. Coming into worlds there were a couple of unanswered questions that Zara had, but with this prep, being disciplined, I couldn’t be more proud of how Zahra showed her ability to adhere to the plan set for her and make adjustments exactly as needed in order to set herself up for a successful day such as this one.

With all given factors from the past year, the goal was pretty simple to come in and PR the total and PR all her Lifts, we had agreed that given the rebound that we had to focus on being able to do that would have been a big win for us in itself.

We always have our eyes set on gold, and we understand the magnitude of work that that carries to make that happen. With a series of events taking place on the day, the result represents that when you just do the work and show up good things can happen. Lo and behold, we had an opportunity to steal a top five position in which we were successful in making reality.

Fifth place is not our end goal, but it is a small signal that I want to relay to not only to Zahra but anyone tired and struggling. Zahra had a lot of long nights, life adjustments and tough times, she had days and weeks where her diet was off. Life was stressful and she was tired. But she just kept showing up. She just kept doing the work.

Zahra paid the price through her work and time invested, traveled out to Lithuania, showed up and performed.
This Fifth place ranking in the world in her respective class represents that a lot of good happens when you just keep showing up.

🍔BURGER BOY🍔 thank you for the help on the day, you were great.

Congratulations Zahra. This next year of work is the big one.

“I had to take you through the fire so you could see you were capable of putting it out”. Unbroken habits, unhealthy or unproductive ways of thinking, are often times what hold athletes back from progressing. Not always is it a programming trouble shooting scenario or training formula and stress dosage issue, those can be the easy parts of problem solving. Additionally, not always is it recovery and your checklist of variables. Sometimes, it can be the mindset holding one back. Stagnation comes in many forms. Attitude and thought process can dictate everything as it relates to how training is scene and navigated. Ask any coach what all of their most productive athletes have in common, and one of those ingredients will always be described as, accountability.
While change is scary, it is simultaneously crucial.
