S1 E17 - Kelsey McCarthy

We preview the upcoming Equipped Worlds in Turkey. Ryan Stinn talks about training for a half marathon and a full marathon. Bryce K looks back on his Westerns meet and breaks down his bench technique. Garrett gives an update on his shoulder injury and his competition plans. We cover travel and venue conditions in Turkey, then go through the contenders and the class battles we're most excited about. We also discuss Danielle's move to equipped lifting, Rhea's knee and her possible World Games goal, and the open question of whether India will host the 2028 Worlds. We wrap up with some travel stories and a few recording glitches.

Bryce, Garrett, and Ryan have a chat while the guys are over in Lithuania for Classic Worlds. Unfortunately the audio had some issues due to internet problems. Sorry about that.

We sit down with GB's best equipped powerlifter and the second lifter to ever squat 500kg in the IPF. Ray is also one of only 6 humans to total over 1200kg in the IPF. 

Holly is an experienced lifter from GB, competing since 2016. In 2025 she won Europeans and placed 4th at Open Worlds.

Shane has been around equipped powerlifting for almost two decades. Winner of numerous national championships as well as a world champion bench presser. He has been competing and coaching at the highest level for years and has a wealth of knowledge to share.

We sit down again with Rhaea Stinn, easily the most highly decorated equipped powerlifter in Canada. 6 time open world champion, 2 time World Games Champion.

We sit down for the first time in five years with a new host and a new plan to help bring some equipped content to you. Sorry for the quality we will improve!

We sat down with up and coming 93kg lifter from Sweden, Oliver Dahlkvist. Oliver has recently squatting more than the WR in training and is looking to make some big moves at the next international competition.   https://www.instagram.com/oliverdahlkvist/
