Lifter of the Month: Bryan Benzel
by Al Myers
The USAWA Lifter of the Month for July Bryan Benzel performing a 705 pound Peoples Deadlift at the Battle of the Barn to secure his overall victory. This meet was an Old Time Strongman competition promoted by Eric Todd last spring.
I’m getting a little behind on announcing the USAWA Lifter of the Month for the month of July. Congrats go to the BIG BULL himself Bryan Benzel of Jobe’s Steel Jungle! Bryan pulled out a tight win in the second USAWA quarterly postal meet, the Middle Atlantic Postal, over several very good lifters. This feat earned him the Lifter of the Month for the month of July.
I have also started a section on the website to maintain a listing of this accomplishment. It is titled “Past Lifters of the Month”.
