Trista Smith Powerlifting Highlights

Trista Smith is a 3-time CrossFit Games veteran in the teenage division. Her best finish was last year where she took 2nd overall in the girls 16-17 year-old division.
This weekend she competed in the 2023 USAPL Holiday Hoist powerlifting competition.
Competing in the 67.5 kg Women’s Raw Teen III (18-19 yr old division), Trista went 7-for-9, finishing with a 352.5kg total. Her only two misses were on the bench press.
Squat: 122.5
Bench: 80
Deadlift: 150

Great idea for Trista to be doing this. The arena is EXACTLY where she needs to be to become a force. Bring the Squat (while going below and not to parallel) up by 50, the Deadlift up by 60-70, and the Bench Press (with a narrower grip) up to 200+ and she wins the games.

@hillerfit hard to tell if sarcastic or not but if someone feeds in to this, it's wrong. Powerlifting, like basketball, football, snowboarding, surfing, or any of the other sports that exist, is encouraged by the methodology right? Furthermore, she could have goals and still want to dabble in other things, right? Just a weird comment from you because it's so unnecessary (compared to your normal stances). Training for the sport of CrossFit is not everything.

@@marlows47 isn't the CF methodology just timed supersets?

[@JustMove365Challenge]

Is it just the aspect ratio or do her and Justin's quads look massive?

@@ShootTheClubUp42 isn't strongman just slow CrossFit? Isn't bodybuilding just the runts with no talent for Olympic weightlifting?

Why don't you wear knee wraps instead of sleeves? Just curious!

[@machokeospower]

Cause this is the sleeved division not really any other reason

[@SinnedNogara]

No one competes in Raw with Wraps
