Anika Olson - Powerlifting

363 on squat.
375 on deadlift.

Not just strength—
ex*****on, timing, discipline.

This is what dialed-in training looks like.

Happy Easter from Anika 🐣🌸
Grateful for the strength to grow, the moments that shape us, and the people who show up along the way.
Wishing you a day filled with light, fresh starts, and a little bit of sweetness too.

Grateful doesn’t even begin to cover it. Thank you to everyone who came out to support me at State, watched online, sent messages, or wished me luck. Every bit of encouragement meant more than you probably realize.

It wasn’t a perfect day on the platform, but it was a tough one and we pushed through. That’s part of the sport. In the end, the work paid off and I’m proud to bring home the 2026 WHSPA State Champion title.

Huge thank you to my coach, my family, and everyone who stands behind me through the wins and the hard days. We’re already back to work for what’s next.

Amazing!!!!

Champ!!!

The scoreboard doesn’t tell the whole story.

Today had missed lifts, frustration, and grit.

But that’s part of the sport.

Anika pushed through a tough day and still finished as Wisconsin State Champion.

We’ll take the lessons and get back to work.

State Meet Day.

This is the quiet part before the platform.
Headphones on. Numbers getting checked. Game plan locked in.

We appreciate everyone cheering her on today. Let’s go lift some weight.

STATE MEET WATCH PARTY

Anika takes the platform tomorrow at the Wisconsin State Powerlifting Meet, and you can watch it live with us.

She’ll be competing in the Sub-Junior 84+ kg class as she continues pushing toward bigger numbers this season.

If you’ve followed her journey, coached her, trained with her, supported her, or just love watching strong women lift heavy things, we’d love to have you cheering her on.

Let’s go, Anika.

March 8. Appleton. 9 AM.

Anika Olson steps back on the platform at the Fox Cities Exhibition Center.

After Worlds. After Illinois. After every rep done when no one was watching.

She competes in the 84+ kg Sub-Junior division and she is coming in focused, steady, and ready to execute.

If you’re local, come fill the room. If you’re watching from a distance, drop a comment and let her know you’re behind her.

Platform. Bar. Command. Lift.

Let’s go.
