Move aside boys – there’s a new girl in town, and she’s breaking the stereotype and defying convention.
Thirteen-year-old Abbey Watson just returned from the Powerlifting Federation national competition in Oklahoma City where she set 28 records, including eight world records. She set the world record for squats in her weight class by lifting 143.3 pounds.
Abbey started weight lifting three years ago. Her Dad brought her along one morning to Defy Crossfit Gym in Broomfield.
She now dead lifts 176 pounds – almost twice her body weight.
