The Core Values of Conqueror Weightlifting are Effort, Attitude, Trust and Respect.
Each month, we recognize one of our athletes who excels in consistently demonstrating these Core Values. Our May 2025 Athlete of Month is Ian Moss.

Ian is a 9-year-old youth athlete who has been training at our facility in since November of 2023. Since starting, Ian has grown tremendously in terms of physical strength and overall character development.

Ian’s success is a direct result of the consistent effort he has put in on a daily basis. He attends all scheduled training sessions and seeks to improve each time he sets foot in the gym. His persistent work habits have helped him achieve impressive increases in strength for a young man his age. As a specific example, Ian’s Deadlift has increased 152% in just the last 6 months!

Equally important to the development of physical strength is the positive character traits that Ian is building through the training process. Ian’s work habits and dedication to the program have helped him gain confidence and trust in his abilities to overcome difficult tasks.

The valuable lessons Ian is learning through the strength training process will undoubtedly help him navigate the challenges of life. It has been a pleasure to see him develop into a strong young man and we appreciate the opportunity to work alongside Ian on this journey.

Congratulations to Ian on being selected as our Athlete of the Month.
