Osasco Powerlifters Adriano Mutante and Marcus Mola Win Brazilian Championships

Adriano Mutante and Marcus Mola, members of Osasco's Bolsa Atleta program, captured titles at the 2026 Brazilian Powerlifting GPC Championship held in São José dos Campos. Mutante lifted 205 kg in the 100‑110 kg class, securing his seventh national title, while Mola lifted 142.5 kg in the Open Raw Bench division. Their victories guarantee spots at the 2026 Pan‑American GPC Championship in Camboriú later this year. Osasco’s sports secretary, Thiago Borges, praised the athletes and highlighted the municipality’s support for high‑performance sport. Commentary accompanying the results also raised questions about the adequacy of long‑term infrastructure and funding for athletes in Osasco, suggesting that continued investment will be needed to sustain competitive success.
