We are a married couple, actively involved in powerlifting competitions. We use our powerlifting activities as a way to help raise money to support hunger relief in our community. The money we raise is donated to the Southeast Gwinnett Cooperative Ministry, an organization that ministers to families in crisis needing immediate emergency assistance with food, clothing, financial support and counseling during their time of need. The Southeast Co-op is supported by dozens of churches representing a variety of denominations throughout the Grayson, Snellville and Loganville, Georgia area.
Are you Stronger Than Hunger too? Join our fight!

Keep Up the Good Work
Today was a great day! Training is hard work and today we worked hard.聽
Russ is recovering well from his shoulder injury. The heavy weights are coming back in a strong way. He made gains today and continues to make real progress.聽
Dana made great gains as well. A new personal record bench press puts her one pound from her next goal. She hopes to cross that threshold before the APC Georgia State competition in March. She is hoping to win, set a new record, and qualify for Nationals.
Training is not all that's going on. Cutting weight for their weight classes is in full swing. Eating healthy and getting enough protein are top of mind. No more Finnish pastries or any other kind for that matter for a while. With only 9 weeks till competition, every day counts toward making weight. With new weight classes in sight for Worlds, proper dieting is key.
While on the subject of eating properly, please remember your local food pantry. Supporting them will help many families and children to get much needed healthy meals.
Thanks for your support and for following our progress.
Lift strong!

Thankful
Team STH is thankful that the only reason we're hungry today is that we're making weight for a competition. Too many people are not as blessed. Join us this season in supporting your local or global hunger fighting organization. THEY NEED YOU!
