Show Notes

Presenter to WAFSU.org seminar was asked about the ages kids should begin powerlifting. The answer was a shocker. There are kids at the age of 2 in China who are lifting a bar over their heads. The speaker, Enoc Francisco of the Philippines recently saw a boy, age 9, compete in a national powerlifting event. Does this mean it is time to think again for American athletes?

The full presentation of nearly 45 minutes on Sport Conditioning, with a quiz, is at WAFSU.org.
