Lifter of the Month-August
By Eric Todd
John about to shoulder a 375-pound personal record Steinborn lift. Note the left hand position.
August saw a couple tough competitions with a number of heavy lifters on hand. This lifter of the month accolade goes out to John Carter of Clark’s gym for his overall win at the Clark’s Gym vs. Frank’s Barbell Club Postal. John edged out fellow teammate Travis Luther by a little over 100 pounds. John has been in the game on and off for decades, and is one of the greatest heavy lifters of all time. Congrats on this John! Well deserved.
