Isle Of Wight College's Gym Instructor Invited To Powerlifting World Championships

Nathan Green

A Level 2 Gym Instructor at the Isle of Wight College has been asked to take part in the Powerlifting World Championships.

Nathan Green will take part in the prestigious event in Portugal.

The Championships was going to be held in the US but due to the current Covid Restrictions, this year it will take place within the WPC World Championships in Portugal.

Nathan Green, Isle of Wight College student said:

'I’m feeling good and I’m excited to get out to Portugal. It’s getting closer and training is getting intense. This will be the toughest prep I’ve done yet, but it’s great fun and I’m really looking forward to it.'

Nathan received his official invitation to represent Great Britain as part of the British team for the Championships last week:

Emma Ylitalo-James President, British Powerlifting Union said:

'Congratulations and we look forward to seeing you in Portugal and thank you for lifting with us, supporting us and being part of the ABPU. We are very proud to have you with us.'
