The USAWA Lifter of the Month for May is awarded to Dave Hahn. Dave made a “comeback” to the USAWA by competing in the USAWA Heavy Lift Championships, hosted by Eric Todd. Dave has been a student of the All Rounds for many years, having competed since the 1960’s. He placed 2nd Overall in the Heavy Lift Championships, against many great heavy lifters. He put up lifts of 400 in the Neck Lift, 550 in the Hand and Thigh, and 900 pounds in the Hip Lift – and all of those big lifts were done at 81 years of age and 150 pounds bodyweight!!!
Congrats Dave!!!
