The world of strength sports gives back so much to its athletes, it is a shame for any lifter to not be able to compete, and leave it all on the platform.
Every Lifter deserves to feel that inexplainable moment it becomes just the lifter and the iron.
That moment all their training comes together on the platform and evolves into unbelievable human strength.
The audience, sees strength and power as they explode into cheers of encouragement.
Little do they know, that the vision of strength and power lifting before them is in a very intimate battle; fighting against cancer, death, loss, pain, divorce, shame, fighting against helplessness, doubt, fighting against everything that lead to years of obesity, addiction, fighting against abuse, against senseless haters, fighting to the death...
Pushing, Pulling, Squeezing, and BATTLING to the bitter end...
Fighting for VICTORY!
Fighting for VICTORY!
The Three White Lights of REDEMPTION!
THEIR OWN, PERSONAL, SWEET... REDEMPTION!
"The lift is GOOD"
LIANE SABOURIN
Liane,
is a POWERLIFTER, in need of the IRON, and focus that training for a meet will bring. Please, don't get me wrong, she is a beautiful, smart, and amazing woman. But she really wants to get to a few powerlifitng meets this year, the iron is calling, unfortunately, so are the bill collectors each month. I want more than anything to support this lifter and help make her desire to compete a reality.
Liane is a proud mother of two, boys, her oldest is an excellent athlete. His natural athletic ability has been a blessing, one that has brought many opportunities to pursue higher athletics. The other side to the blessing of being offered “opportunities,” is that they require you to take action or they remain only, “opportunities.” We all can think of opportunities we have had offered to us, but failed to take full advantage of. So as a "good" mother, Liane, has done all the required running around, organizing, driving, and of course spending money hand over fist to make "it" happen for her oldest son. She by no means regrets a single moment, decision made, or even the sacrifices made so her son can take full advantage of all his athletic opportunities.
“Most recently, he spent a year in South
Africa playing a whole new level of Rugby, and I couldn't be more proud.” – Liane Sabourin
Liane, youngest son, is
her baby, and her little sweetheart. The entire family has spent many years in
chaos, searching for answers to explain why her baby has so many special medical needs. In the spring of
2010 the chaos came to a head, and imploded on the entire family. After some
pretty heart wrenching moments, that lead to her baby being hospitalized, God revealed
his plan. Looking back at all the pain that lead up to Liane's youngest son's hospitalization, she can now see that every endless night, every tear shed, and every countless question unanswered, was actually a
god sent to the entire family, as it was in the hospital that one doctor
started putting the pieces of the puzzle together, and finally diagnosed her baby. The relief of knowing what her son was going through, was a
warm welcome to everyone. All though having a label for her son's condition doesn't change anything, it
definitely helps answer many questions, and gives Liane, and her son new tools, and options to make life for the entire family much better!
“My youngest boy is special on so many
level, and I wouldn't trade him for the world, he has a heart of gold!” – Liane Sabourin
Liane, discovered the power of lifting in the spring of 2011. It took twenty (20) years of being a strong single mother, surviving challenging health issues, and countless heartaches for Liane to realize she needed to do something for herself. Once Liane started lifting, she finally found a place she could regroup, get strong inside and out, and take care of Liane. Though Liane could never turn her back on her new love, the iron, she would not change her past for the world. It was during those 20 years she discovered what she was made of, renewed focus, and grow endless appreciation for the loves of her life, her two (2) boys.
Liane, started in the
gym with a great trainer in hopes of losing some of the weight she had packed
on over the years of horrible eating, inactivity, and endless stress. It was her
trainer, a powerlifter, that introduced her to benching, within two (2)
weeks, she was HOOKED! She now trains full
power, even with constantly being plagued by bad back issues, which at times
leave her barely able to walk. Liane, couldn't imagine life without powerlifting ever again.
LIANE’S POWERLIFTING MEET HISTORY
2011: Bench Only, August
of 2011 in Calgary, AB Canada with the GPC Independent powerlifting crew. Joined
the Canadian team at Worlds in Ireland; Break two records in both raw and
equipped bench.
2012: Trained full
power but still competing bench only. Doctors finally ordered an MRI, Long
story short, was told you will never squat or deadlift if you want to continue
to walk, and have any quality of life! Accepted
this for a while but then started exploring options!
In her search, Liane, found an amazing coach in Clint Darden. Clint, looked at the bigger picture,
and saw obstacles as opportunities, the transformation began.
