GOOD DAY! I got interviewed for a college broadcasting project at work then one of my clients got an interview with the local paper after our training session after the reporter, who is a gym member and written a couple articles on me saw the Deadlifting we were doing. Client is a powerlifter and women's 56 kg provincial champ.
