🔥 AS THE CHALK SETTLES IN ABILENE… 🔥

The Taylor County Expo Center just witnessed the STRONGEST athletes in Texas throw down at the 2026 THSPA State Powerlifting Meet… and what a weekend it was 💪

🏆 State records were BROKEN
🏆 Champions REPEATED
🏆 New lifters ARRIVED and made noise across multiple weight classes

This season marked the first year of unequipped lifting—and it delivered in a BIG way from start to finish. And for the first time ever, 5A and 6A had their own state meets, meaning even more athletes got their shot at the podium… and they took advantage of it 🥇🥈🥉

NONE of this happens without the grind, leadership, and commitment from coaches across the state. Y’all set the standard—and it showed all season long.

Now listen up… ⬇️

Spring sports are here… but don’t get comfortable.
🚫 DON’T skip workouts
🚫 DON’T lose the edge

Powerlifting is YEAR-ROUND.
If you want your name called in Abilene in 2027…
👉 THE WORK STARTS NOW.

We also want to give a HUGE THANK YOU to Rene Guzman for his leadership over the past two years as THSPA President. Coach, your impact has pushed this association forward and set the stage for what’s next.

And speaking of what’s next… 👀

🔥 Your new leadership is ready to roll:
➡️ President: Steve Harralson
➡️ Vice President: Mark Zimmer

They’re coming in with a vision to take THSPA to new heights!! 🚀

The bar just got raised…
Who’s ready to answer?

💪🔥

Wow! What an incredible and successful two days! A huge thank you to Taylor County Expo Center for the amazing southern hospitality, as well as our spotters and loaders from local schools and universities in Abilene. We’re also grateful to Visit Abilene, Texas for providing accommodations for our judges and giving a warm welcome to our teams, lifters, and their families.

With four divisions and two meets, we had an impressive 1,144 lifters qualify for state! It’s been an amazing journey, and we appreciate everyone who made it possible.

Wishing you all safe travels as you head back home. & - It starts NOW! 💥💪🏼
