My list of top things to know about powerlifting/strongman

Interview with Sophia, 16 year old junior powerlifter

In today's episode I sit down with my friend Sophia. A 16 year old junior powerlifter here in Wellington. We talk about her journey from water polo into powerlifting. About breaking other people's stereotypes of being feminine by doing powerlifting and societal expectations of being thin and going from the mindset of wanting to be thin to wanting to be strong. And we share what it's like doing comps and being a powerlifter in general. If you would like to be a guest on my podcast next please contact my Instagram. Licia.strengthandpowerlifting.
