Raising the Bar for Spondylitis

Derek is a self-coached world-championship level powerlifter in his 60s, participating in drug tested (mostly IPL and USPA) events, despite having Ankylosing Spondylitis since childhood.

Derek is a one-time world champion in his category, and has broken four world records, two of which he still holds.

Derek raises funds for the Spondylitis Association of America, through his campaign "Raising the Bar for Spondylitis".  Please consider a contribution.
