Hachioji CampusBarbell Club students placed second at the 116th Kanto Student Powerlifting Championships

At the 116th Kanto Student Powerlifting Championships held at the University of Tokyo Komaba Campus New Second Gymnasium (Meguro-ku, Tokyo) on Saturday, June 22nd and Sunday, June 23rd, 2024, Yuri Ikeda (3rd year student, Faculty of Law) of Teikyo University Barbell Club won second place in the women's 52 kg class with a total of 170.0 kg, including a squat of 50.0 kg, bench press of 35.0 kg, and deadlift of 85.0 kg. Ikeda has been training steadily since she first held a barbell since entering university. After the tournament, Ikeda said, "This is my first time competing in a tournament, and I'm not used to the weight adjustment and the atmosphere of the competition venue, so I'm disappointed that I couldn't perform at my usual level, but I was able to have a valuable experience for the next competition. I'll do my best to beat this record in the next competition."

At the Barbell Club, we respect each member's goals and work hard at training while cooperating with each other. We appreciate your continued support for the Barbell Club.
