More pics from Sunday.


One of the seeming hundred of hands I taped this weekend.Hi, Naina sounds like Banana,lol.

Happy Rif
Me and my assistant Marc "Spud" Bartley. What an honor to work with this World Class Powerlifter,. this is one brutally strong man. The man is flexible too, he can get in almost full side splits!
Senior Instructor, Pressing Cyborg and serious kb research scientist Kenneth Jay.Can't wait to go to the Danish RKC next year in Copenhagen. Now THAT is going to be fun.
The Dr's Cheng, Courtney and Mark RKC, and Tracy and I. Courtney did two hand swings with the Beast at the end of the day no problem. It does weigh more than her!First time she has even picked up a bell weighing more the 24 kg!
Of course on seeing that Tracy had to get in on the act and did the same. Unreal.

"Happy Rif" looks good man!

Mr. Bartley is a B-E-A-S-T.

Great to see you again, Rif. Keep in touch, for sure. Continued success.

Royce, yes, Spud is a beast, but he is one the most humble people I have ever met. Great guy, very soft spoken and as he said, "I'm just another guy." That says it all.

same here bj, it was great to see you and to see Kori get her RKC. She did great.and yes Spud is just a great guy all around. Humble AND funny.
No one who squats over 1000 is "just another guy" though. at the very least they are out of their minds,lol.

Those were his words, not mine, and I was blown away at how humble a man he is. Truly one of a kind.

Take care,
