The Marion Strength Program welcomed four new members and recognized one member for improvement! 💪
Students maxed in three lifts—bench, squat, and deadlift—and their combined totals earned them placement in a pound club based on their achievements.
On behalf of the Marion Strength Program, we would like to thank NuGen Energy for their generous donation and Victoria Blau for making the shirts.
