In today’s episode we talk to BSF athlete Jay McManus on his progression as a powerlifter, how he’s built a huge deadlift, and his attitude to training and competing. Rauraidh has been working with Jay for a number of years and helped to take his deadlift from 210kg in his first meet in 2017, to narrowly missing a 290kg deadlift towards the end of 2021, and all as a junior lifter.
