<\/p>\n

GABINDER Cheema, from Leamington, has qualified for the British Powerlifting Championships.<\/h3>\n

Cheema produced a record-breaking performance at the West Midlands qualifier earlier this month.<\/h4>\n

He posted a lift of 160kg bench press in the men\u2019s masters 90kg category to secure his place on the national stage next month.<\/p>\n

Cheema trains at Nelson Gym in Leamington under the watchful eye of his father and coach Nirmal.<\/p>\n

He now holds the West Midlands regional records in two different weight classes.<\/p>\n

His 160kg lift set a new benchmark in the 90kg category which added to his existing record of 172.5kg in the 100kg category.<\/p>\n\n\n

Gabinder will now begin his final weeks of preparation before representing the region at the national finals.<\/p>\n
