athlete of the month: august 2008

paul flores

A few months ago, Paul approached us about joining the olympic lifting class. The olympic lifts are quite explosive and highly technical, so naturally Paul was a little bit intimidated, but he joined class nonetheless.

Since that first Saturday, he's worked very hard to learn not only the technique, but also the vernacular commonly used on the platform. He asks questions, prints out emails to reference during his workouts, and carefully studies other athletes during their lifts.

He's incredibly positive and has worked really hard. We're proud of you, Paul! Keep that bar moving fast!!!
