An Inside Look at a Female's Powerlifting Training: What an SBD Workout Looks Like

Strength Training

Dec 2

This is a behind the scenes video log of a female powerlifter during training for an SBD (squat, bench, and deadlift) day.

In today’s powerlifting training, I work up to a 245 lb squat, 145 lb bench, and 245 lb deadlift.

I also talk more about my knee injury and how that’s effected my powerlifting and strength as well as briefly discuss my past struggles with an eating disorder and how that plays a role in my training and nutrition.

Included is a realistic and intuitive full day of eating (nothing aesthetic or cute- just real). What I eating in a day fluctuates based on appetite, cravings, and mental health.

I’m currently working my way back into being more competitive after my knee, c-spine, and shoulder injury!
