The 40 for JT Challenge: Powerlifting for a Cause

The 40 for JT Challenge has inspired some incredible activities, and Paul, a former British and European Powerlifting Champion, certainly rose to the occasion. As the head of the Purbeck Powerlifting Club, Paul and his team of dedicated powerlifters took on the ambitious challenge of bench pressing 40 tonnes in just 30 minutes.

A huge thanks to Paul, Will, James, Sam, and Paul, who smashed the challenge by completing 500 reps, bench pressing 80 kgs in an impressive 26 minutes! Special thanks also go to Kian and Rob for their support lifting in, with Rob taking on the final lift to complete the challenge.

Their remarkable effort raised £120, and we can't thank these guys enough for their dedication and hard work. Their contribution is a testament to Paul’s commitement to the JTYAF and we can’t thank him enough.
