My name is Ayshea Ullah and I have been strength training for the past (almost) 6 years and competing for the past 5 years .
I initially started out doing Crossfit which led me into Powerlifting and then into Strongwoman.
I didn’t envisage that I’d ever be as successful a strength athlete as I have become and I had zero interest in any kind of weight training in the beginning.
I played sport at school and tried to remain as active as possible after leaving school, eventually starting taekwondo in my mid twenties which I kept up until my early 30s.
I initially lifted with the IDFPA. During those 2 years I broke many national and international records and won pretty much all of the competitions I entered.
I was also the first woman in Ireland to deadlift 200kg in a tested federation…showing it could be done. I have gone on to break that record several times over.
I went on to become the first female in Ireland to squat over 200kg as well…and again I’ve since broken that record.
I am 3x irelands strongest woman
2nd strongest woman in Britain 2018
