    [WA] PTC Novice Powerlifting Comp - 30th June 2013

    If you are thinking about getting into lifting but are nervous or not too sure this is the time to do it. There will be plenty of support and assistance. It is pretty infectious when you see eveyone is as stoked as you are when you make a lift (whatever the weight).

    Mine workers
