Reval Sport Cup 2009 Bench Press

-
Hello my friends,

Its late Sunday evening and finally i got to update my website a bit, news and powerlifting gallery and etc.
31 Jan, Saturday, was Reval Sport Cup Bench press Championships for the highest number of repetitions in Tallinn, Estonia. The contest rules were that men had to push their own body weight and women 50% of their weight. I pushed with 32,5kg x 70 reps which gave me first place and also a absolute winner. There was few nice prices and which made me really happy was the sporty hand watch which i really needed. You can read about it and see all the pictures from Fitness.ee website.

Also i want to say that there is a new number (February 2009) of Estonian language Muscle & Fitness magazine out. You are able to buy it from Fitness.ee shop, Telliskivi 51, Tallinn, i will sell it for you with a pleasure :) Let me also say that i wrote a letter to M&F magazine and its possible to read it under Readers Letters (Lugejate Kirjad). ;)

Oke.. off i go to sleep :)

Have a great week and take time for training and enjoy everything what you have to do :)

My best,
Gerbel

Hey all guys and girls, Damn, time flies, you get older and the time seems unstoppable ;) Hope in your end all is good. My end, it’s great. It has been so many things going on, all life has been a big challenge lately, but I like to be positive and I am. So, there has been always a light at the end of the tunnel. Many things have had happened last 2-3 years in all single levels of my life and it has been difficult in times but I have been lucky. I had some health problems but I got over it. Lets say I got really lucky and I'm very grateful for it.  Closer friends know what it was about, I will never be really ready to share it I guess but lets say "Thank you God". I have done some trainings but not very regular. Couldn't go heavy because of my health issues, but gradually I will get back to the regular physical exercising.

Hello my dear friends, Now im married woman, Gerbel Mikk-Poortmans. Who still doesnt know, on 17 of October i got married with lovely belgian guy, Guy Poortmans, in Wilrijk-Antwerpen, Belgium.

To make the story short ;) ..we met online and we knew that we should be together already before we first met in real life, meeting was just a confirmation of our feelings :) Lovely! :) A hint, soon there will be also wedding picture in Kroonika ;) Now, after 5 month knowing each other, we are married. Seems like a fairy tale. The wedding was very lovely in one small castle, as simple as it could be. On 17th my day started already 0630am, did my make-up and went to hair dresser. Wedding was at 10.45 am and followed by lunch-dinner reception in near by restaurant "Den Bourgondier" with our witnesses, Guy's parents and relatives. Unfortunatly, my best friend Aire couldnt c...
