Summary

Are we experiencing a plateau in the popularity of powerlifting? What happens if the sport falls off the social media radar? Will it still be able to attract young, new-to-the-sport competitors? Will the old guard lifters running federations be willing to pass the baton? Or will they be a source of toxicity that drives competitors, meet promoters, and sponsors away?

Joe Stanek of Gameday Barbell joins us for this discussion. You can find Joe on TikTok @joegameday
