On this episode of Iron Culture, we are joined by the strongest of them all: Amanda Lawrence. She currently tops the ranks of drug-tested raw powerlifting by coefficient using multiple formulae and is just weeks out from USAPL raw nationals where she hopes to further improve on her already mind-blowing total of 646kg at under 84kg. Join us as we discuss how she got into the sport, what she loves about the sport, her future in powerlifting, her experiences coaching and competing, and who she is outside of the gym. Also, listen in to find out who she calls out for a post-nationals posedown on Daytona Beach!

0:03.8 | Strong people failing to describe accurately so people can understand how truly strong they are, |
0:10.5 | because to them, there's always seemingly the next goal. |

0:49.9 | I'm going to say the empress, the queen. |
0:52.9 | The strongest lifter objectively based on formula in the drug tested world, Amanda Lawrence. |
1:01.3 | No, Eric, it's, and I think if you could just briefly go over some of those numbers and the accomplishments, because Amanda spoke about it a little bit once again, which is super cool. |
1:12.3 | Because again, I think she's 24. |
