Camille Leblanc-Bazinet has been patiently rehabbing since injuring her shoulder, and the road to recovery can be very long and boring. She’s making the climb back, though, as we all knew she would. And a recent lifting session of power snatches went so well, she actually cried. There’s no feeling quite like it.

What an unexpected day! Woke up super tired and used it as an opportunity to challenge my head, did an awful workout in the morning then my arm rehab! Took a nap! And Just wanted to work on technique at night… started light, made super small jump, had no expectation and end up power snatching 167!!! ‘ ?? ‘ I immediately started to cry after! Hahaha you know when all that hard work pays off at the most unexpected time! NO PAIN also… so happy! ‘ Now back to the grind… still so much work ahead of me and so motivated! #workhard #bebrave #2018 #camillelbaz @justinsua @jtodd28
