We were at Olympic Sports Gym this afternoon to film a training session with Jess Pallot, a competitive powerlifter.
Jess is currently preparing for the British Finals at the BodyPower Expo in Birmingham next month.
In our video, Jess talks to us about her introduction to the sport and the way it's improved her life; why powerlifting should be embraced by females; the importance of support from friends and family; and how Olympic Gym has played a major role in her success.
