Competing for the first time since relocating to the USA a few months ago, Guyana’s squat gold medalist at the 2023 World Sub-Junior and Junior Championships, Romeo Hunter, has once again demonstrated his athletic talent.
Competing at the “Load The Kilos Classic” in Houston, Texas on Sunday last with the blessings of the Guyana Amateur Powerlifting Federation, the 18-year-old Hunter, with a bodyweight of 74.48kg, captured a gold and bronze competing in the 83kg Men’s Raw Sub-Junior and Open, classes.
Despite being the lightest competitor at 74.48kg in the 83kg weight class, Hunter proved again that he can dominate his Sub-Junior peers and even opted to compete with the big guys in the open category and proved that he can finish on the podium even amongst the big guys.
