Meet Your Alabama USAPL State Chair: Gavin Crumpto Meet Your Alabama USAPL State Chair: Gavin Crumpton 💪

Gavin Crumpton brings years of experience and passion to the role of USAPL Alabama State Chair. His journey in powerlifting began as an athlete and expanded into coaching, meet directing, and administrative leadership. Along the way, Gavin developed a deep respect for the discipline, structure, and community that define the sport, and he’s remained committed to growing powerlifting at the grassroots level by mentoring lifters, supporting meet directors, and working closely with USAPL leadership.

As State Chair, Gavin finds the most fulfillment in supporting lifters and organizers across Alabama and creating opportunities for athletes of all levels. His goals include growing participation, improving communication and organization statewide, developing new officials and meet directors, and expanding opportunities for youth, collegiate, and first-time lifters—all while upholding the high standards USAPL is known for. Above all, Gavin is passionate about the community and personal growth powerlifting fosters, and he’s dedicated to building a positive, welcoming environment where athletes can compete, improve, and create lasting memories on the platform.

Last weekend of January, rolling straight into Feb Last weekend of January, rolling straight into February.🔥

Bars are loaded, nerves are real, and all the quiet work finally gets a voice.

USAPL weekends hit different ➡️ whether you’re chasing a total, a qualifying total, or just showing up stronger than the last meet. New month ahead. Same focus. More chances to execute.

Good luck to everyone stepping on the platform. Go lift like you trained. 🏋️‍♀️

Meet Katherine Berger, Co-Chair for New Hampshire💪 Meet Katherine Berger, Co-Chair for New Hampshire💪

Katherine discovered powerlifting in her early 40s. After a lifetime of lifting, often as the only girl in her high school weight room, she tried a USAPL meet in Rhode Island and was hooked! Since then, she has competed locally, regionally, and nationally, and now serves as a National Referee.

As State Chair, Katherine enjoys mentoring new referees and collaborating with neighboring New England states to grow the powerlifting community. Her goals include expanding meets to northern NH, growing the referee pool, and providing a welcoming environment for all lifters.

She is passionate about the numerous physical and mental health benefits of powerlifting. It is a sport that supports lifters across the lifespan and provides community. As someone who works in the mental health field, she has encouraged many individuals to give it a try. Katherine hopes to see more youth get involved in powerlifting in NH, where, like many other states, too many are struggling with self-harm and suicide. 🏋️‍♀️
