We're working with various gyms in the middle Tennessee area to host mock meets and sanctioned competitions, to promote weightlifting and have some fun. We love watching people thrive as they test themselves on the competition platform! We are also working on small workshops at other gyms in Middle Tennessee.
Location: CrossFit Donelson,
219 Shady Grove Road Nashville, TN 37214
This is a mock weightlifting meet for folks to practice the timing and feel of a weightlifting competition without the stress of all the details of a sanctioned competition. We'll have 1 sessions of about 12 to 15 lifters, which does include youth lifters if interested. Minimum lift is 10kg/22lbs.
No singlet required but you will need to wear something fairly close fitting and a shirt/top where we can see your elbows. And of course all lifters will get to choose a candy bar for their reward for lifting big!
This is also a great meet to use as a tune-up meet for any upcoming sanctioned competitions.
The timing will be slightly different in that we will have weigh-ins at 8 AM and then lifting will start at 9 AM.
JP Weightlifting and The Ogre Compound are excited to bring you the 2023 Tennessee Kentucky WSO Championships, on the campus of Trevecca Nazarene University. The meet will take place in the 8600 sq. feet Courts Gymnasium, inside the Trevecca Community Church building.
$99 Entry fee includes t-shirt and athlete swag bag. Once you have completed registration, please email jennifer@jenniferperrier.com your t-shirt size (S, M, L, XL, XXL). We may have a special form set up for that at some point but for now email will be fine.
Anyone who is a member of USA Weightlifting can compete. All ages, weight classes, no qualifying total. It is technically for Tennessee and Kentucky state residents and any residents who set records here will be counted for that. But it is an open meet and we will not require TN or KY state residency. Medals for all age categories/weight classes and prizes for best male and female lifter based on ROBI formula.
Please register before September 14 to ensure that you get a t-shirt. That is the t-shirt deadline and the price will go up after September 14.
I had the opportunity to attend a snatch workshop Jennifer hosted. Her passion and love for coaching is obvious in her positive attitude and encouragement with each athlete. Her coaching method of "one size fits you" is something to be admired, and one I now strive to instill in my own athletes!
Your FAITH and your ENERGY are contagious!! YOU are the kind of coach that made me as the athlete believe in myself because YOU wholeheartedly did!
Coach Perrier’s focused coaching has lead me to a Pan American Masters Bronze medal, an American Masters Bronze medal, and PR snatch and Clean and Jerk totals. She knows how to cue me, and support me, to make the competition day adjustments that lead to big results!
Jennifer creates a safe and supportive environment to train. She closely analyzes your lifts and makes big or small changes to maximize your performance while cheering you on. I've seen huge growth in my technique and motivation by training with Jennifer. She makes training a fun and positive experience you want to repeat.
