This was exactly my idea. I'm friendly with a couple who both powerlift, but apparently their club is members only, and even if they could get me in the boss isn't fond of photographers :(
I'm going swimming this arvo, and was thinking I might take my camera round to the powerlifting gym and asking if I could take a few pictures. Not sure if that would be weird to approach a stranger for a photo though.
I really want to do a portrait of someone straining to lift something heavy, or giving it the total beans on the Velodrome.
Quite hard to set up.
Might have to settle for a selfie of me doing a crap.
