Lametina Giada Torcasio on the top step of the podium in the 5th national sub junior, junior and master Powerlifting deadlift competition held in San Zenone al Lambro (Milan)
From Lamezia Terme to Northern Italy, from a simple hobby to the top step of the podium. This is how the story so far can be summarized of the very young Giada Torcasio who, from being simply curious about the world of weightlifting, quickly became a true Powerlifting athlete.
Within the large family of weightlifting – an Olympic sport for over 100 years – powerlifting is a specific discipline made up of three types of lifting: squat, bench press and deadlift, each of which consists of three attempts to be able to lift the greatest weight possible.
The very young athlete, registered in the national competition with Vikings Veneto ASD, came first in her weight category, – 63 junior, reaching a deadlift of 167.5 kg.
A great result that makes the city of Lamezia Terme and Giada Torcasio herself proud, happy with the result and even more determined to continue this path undertaken only recently but which has already brought important satisfactions.
