Female Powerlifter Suffers Awkward Bodily Malfunction Mid-Lift

There are a few occupational hazards within the world of powerlifting, and this unlucky lady has educated the world on what one of them is.

‘BlondeBeautyBri’ as she’s known on Instagram was competing at the Raw Unity Powerlifting Championships, or ‘Rum9’, reports UPROXX.

Having loosened up with some interpretive dance, Bri starts her lift but what she hasn’t prepared for is an unexpected bout of projectile vomiting.

Check it out:

So this year at #rum9 I decided to take it up a notch and not just pee the platform and I def got the head judge?? opps! Make sure you check out the spotters face in the background! Thank you to everyone for being so supportive after this #pukeprincess #deadlifttillimdead #orpuke #hardcore #deadlift #dealifting #liftnet #projectilevomit #threewhitelights #lifting #nogivingup #girlswhopowerlift #powerlifter #powerlifting #motivationmonday#doyouevenlift #liftoftheday #jewskiprogram #fithustle #teamfithustle #thirdattempt #whitelights #secondplace #60kg #132

Credit to her, she refused to let the spew prevent her from completing the lift.

A+ for effort and commitment.

Bri even shared the moment she first saw a replay of the incident:

Throw back Thursday to last weekend at #rum9 when someone showed me for the first time what I had just done on the platform this was my first reaction to the video ??? yucky but still winning ? LIFTING IS LIFE all that matters is those three white lights at the end ⚪️⚪️⚪️ Thank you to so many girls and guys for being so supportive and understanding why you don’t stop pulling regardless of any circumstances! Also thanks the @mkeob for capturing this priceless moment with the support of two amazing girl powerlifters who def had my back you two are awesome ❤️ @anitamedolla @bratsy_cline ❤️ The video has 1.5 million + views and counting who knew this would go so viral even to being on #Reddit where you can tell nobody knows how to even lift but it’s extremely entertaining and amusing to read; someone even drew a picture of me ? #theexorcist #gymmemes #supporteachother #girlswhopowerlift #pukeprincess #powerlifter #powerlifting #upliftandliftheavy #firsttime #viralvideo #deadlifttillimdead #fithustle #jewskiprogram #threewhitelights #pukegirl #yuckyface #liftingislife #tbt

Rather than boycott social media and the inevitable piss-take memes, Bri absolutely owned the situation and began sharing them herself:

This looks familiar ? Thanks to some guy on #reddit …. I think ✝✝ #blessyou

????My first official meme ???? no I’m not embarrassed nor ashamed of this I’m actually proud of myself for not giving up like most lifters would! So many people are saying so many things like its “gross” “nasty” “chicken dance” whatever yes it’s gross and nasty and yes I like to do the chicken dance to pump my lats before my lift but at the end of the day I still got my final attempt deadlift and I wouldn’t change anything at all. For people who don’t understand powerlifting and the passion we as powerlifters train long and hard, beat our bodies up for 1 day on the platform and a total of 9 lifts you better believe after I covered the judge in vomit there was no way I wasn’t going to get my lift. So to any lifters who have ever done any of the powerlifting trifecta on the platform (pee, puke or poop?) keep on lifting because you trained way to hard for any of that to stop you!! #dontstoppulling #powerlifting #passion #commitment #dedicated #deadlift #deadlifttillimdead #pukeprincess #rum9 #powerlifter #girlswhopowerlift #deadliftandchill #whitelights #60kg #132 #347 #fithustle #teamfithustle #lifting #weightlifting #dontgiveup #meme #gymmeme #powerliftingmeme #chickendance #rawunity #lol #laughatyourself #donttakelifetoserious #shithappens

Well played Bri.

Having analysed the routine, I think I can see the cause of the vomit…
