Powerlifting
I've been training for powerlifting for 2 years now. I've not competed yet but I have some competitions in the books.
You'll find a couple of cool lifts in my timeline, I add data-points when I feel proud of certain sets or singles.
My Reading List
Dark Age
By Pierce Brown, 2019
Finished 🤓
Very suitable title, our heroes realise they may not be in the moral right. However spins up a few plot elements that aren't developed on in Lightbringer.
Rating: 4 / 5
Lightbringer
By R. J. Barker, 2023
Finished 🤓
Lightbringer takes the despair instilled in the former title Dark Age, and lets you really enjoy the comeuppance the protagonists deserved. Not a page wasted, masterpiece.
Rating: 5 / 5
Gods of the Wyrdwood
By R. J. Barker, 2023
Finished 🤓
A harder read, but you are rewarded with fantastical elements that are unique and well thought out. Worldbuilding is not the best, but it has been thought through and in the first chapters you have no choice but to navigate the world with new eyes.
