I’m very proud to share this. She is an active member of bb.com. Our very own JJ (JJeane). She usually hangs out in the female section.
She was my very first online lifter. I did the best to take her as far as I could with the knowledge I have, then encouraged her to go to a higher level coach to keep improving. I’m glad she listened to me.
Sometimes trainers / coaches have to be honest with themselves and know their educational limit, and be humble enough to say to their lifters, “You are doing great, but I have to pass the baton to somebody else so you can keep growing.” It’s always about the athlete. They come first and foremost.
She entered her third WL meet this weekend. Her total in the snatch and clean & jerk was 96-kg, only 4-kg away from her goal of 100-kg.
I am very proud of you, Jani!

Thanks, fellas!!
Watching someone like JJ come out of their eggshell and conquer their fears is the best feeling in the world.
Solving technical issues and designing widgets as an engineer brings a good feeling of accomplishment. And the salary is pretty good, too.
But helping People be the best they can be - although there is little to no monetary compensation involved - has a much bigger sense of accomplishment and offers a greater sense of purpose in life.This above all..
