I have to write-in Jennifer Thompson. At USAPL Bench Nats, she competed in a shirt (as well as was co-Meet Director). At the end of each flight, there was a raw bench-for-reps contest. Only she competed with the men. She did 225x8 raw, after maxing out in a shirt!! 132 lbs. of (As Jimmie "JJ" Walker would say) dyn-no-MITE!!

Jennifer Thompson without a doubt, not many men that weigh what she weighs can out do her.
