On Friday, 9 August 2019, Asiphe Kota competed in the Rhino Girl Power Powerlifting Competition held at our school. She achieved a first position in her weight category with a squat of 60kg, bench press of 40kg and a deadlift of 115kg.
Asiphe has been doing powerlifting for about two years and trains five times a week. She loves other sports like soccer and rugby and is thankful for the support and guidance of Mr Stander in perfecting her techniques.
She would like to achieve National Colors in powerlifting one day and the motto she lives by is: “You only have one competitor, and that’s yourself.”
