Just wanted to ask for a little favor - http://www.powerliftingwatch.com/
If you could quickly vote for Rheta West for woman powerlifter of the year I'd appreciate the help. Here is a little about what she does (my kids think she's a super hero):
This is only a small part of who she is though. She gives so much back to the sport and is a huge supporter of everyone she meets. She's also very involved in bringing more women into the sport of powerlifting and does a ton of work to accomplish it. One of the nicest people you'd ever meet in or out of the gym and shes one of us (O35). Anyhow, looking to help her here not because I know her, or she owns the gym I'm member of, but because of what she's accomplished and who she is as a person. Thanks!
***Will spread some green dots where I can!

She's yelled at me through a few PR's. Reps for those willing to throw a quick vote her way.

I voted for her. three votes out of first and blowing everyone else away. Always an amazing thing to give back, (one of the reasons I think Mike Katz is just an amazing guy)

She is awesome. She was a judge at my first PL comp when I was so nervous (stage fright, big time). After I got my first lift on the board, she gave me a smile and nod. She's great, and I must say, so are all the gals from her gym.

She's got a crazy squat, she fights it all the way down, then just stands up. Like most people fight a deadlift all the way up and then just set it down.Originally Posted by Bo_Flecks

Thanks for spreading the word, John.
Just to add, I'm a member at her gym and train with her regularly, and she literally spends hours and hours helping other people lift...coaching, yelling cues, spotting, wrapping knees, calling depth, loading plates, etc. There are days when she won't even be doing what we are that day, yet she will still stand there for the duration of our workout making sure we're doing it right. She also goes to meets and handles a ton of people...and I've seen her just picking up random people at meets and end up loading their warmups, doing their bench liftoffs, etc. And then she is constantly doing cheap and/or free powerlifting clinics...she just had a free equipped squatting seminar for women not that long ago.
Haha I would have but that's her song! She has a version that she put together somewhere that's not taken with a crappy phone camera and that one uses the regular music that was in the background at the meet.Originally Posted by 7Seconds
