Take that Cult of Youth! You who write off your elders as ignorant, frail and infirm, shake your heads and look around you. Strong capable elders are everywhere.
Record-smashing powerlifter, 68, says she lives for the 'clang' of the weights
On Thursday morning, 68-year-old Mava Brydges put the weight of a household refrigerator onto her back, lowered herself toward the floor and then stood up again.
Her 132.5-kilogram squat at the Canadian Powerlifting National Championships in St. John's, N.L., was five kilograms shy of the national record for her age and weight class, which she set herself in 2022.
In the next few hours, she set two new records, finishing the morning by hoisting a 140-kilogram barbell off the ground as a crowd of gobsmacked fans cheered and shouted her name.
"This is my sport that I love," Brydges said minutes after her final lift, her eyes filling with tears. "It's an amazing feeling to be able to do what I do at this age."

Her recommendations are totally on point:
➡️ Leverage privilege & work within spheres of influence
➡️ Listen up when impacted people are speaking. Ask what they need instead of telling them
➡️ No one is free until we're ALL freeAs my Teacher puts it, "A little leaven leavens the whole batch" & "whatever you do for/to the folks getting shit on, you do for/to Me"
