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 September 2024 Athlete of Month is Ivan Hoegemeyer.
Ivan is an 11-year-old wrestler and member of our Olympic Weightlifting team. He is a hard-working young man who is passionate about strength training and committed to the process of developing himself to the best of his ability.
Since starting with us a year and a half ago, Ivan has improved by leaps and bounds in terms of overall strength and athleticism. He genuinely enjoys the strength training process and always gives his very best effort.
Additionally, Ivan consistently trains with a positive and respectful attitude. He is receptive to coaching feedback and is diligent in applying what he learns. This important quality has played a key role in helping him improve on a weekly basis since starting.
Recently, Ivan made the commitment to join our competitive Olympic Weightlifting team and is preparing to lift in his first meet in October. The work ethic and attitude he brings to training each day makes him a valuable member of our program. We look forward to great stuff ahead as he continues to develop as a young athlete.
Congratulations to Ivan on his selection as our Athlete of the Month.
