leah_lifts_ Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 Hey everyoneI'm just wondering if there are any Whangarei peeps on here? I'd love to have a training partner but unfortunately there aren't too many women in Whangarei training for powerlifting! About me - I'm 29, training twice a week for my first powerlifting comp in April 2015. Would love to hear from people with the same interest as me! Or even just Whangarei gym people!Leah :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamfatboy Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 Hey Leah,Welcome... there's a small but strong powerlifting group in Northland - check out the Northland Powerlifting Association, which has some really great people.You can find them: here http://nzpowerlifting.co.nz/ Here https://www.facebook.com/pages/New-Zealand-Powerlifting/140235609369499Northland boasts WORLD CHAMPION powerlifter Trish Muldrock http://www.nzherald.co.nz/northern-advocate/news/article.cfm?c_id=1503450&objectid=11333761 as well as others like Elisha, Dean, Kane, and Joseph Whittaker... all of whom compete at National level. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leah_lifts_ Posted October 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 Thanks teamfatboy, I've been to a comp here and know most of the people you mentioned, and yes - Trish is a machine! Unfortunately they are spread all around Northland. I'm hoping for someone who trains regularly in Whangarei. Doesn't have to be a powerlifter or wanting to compete, but a general interest in the three main lifts would be great.Anyway, I suspect I am a little bit wishful here! Maybe I should just move to a bigger city :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamfatboy Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 Yep, I only realised what you were after, after my post <doh>I don't know of too many Whangarei-based people on here, competitive powerlifter or just three-lift specialist. Bit of a shame, really.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northland Powah Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Northland powerlifting is more centered around Kerikeri-Kaikohe. Maybe give Brian a call. He is the man in the know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
