I work in the wholesale tyre industry in sales and logistics.
Living in Silverdale NSW and training in Penrith at Fitness First. We have our own powerlifting team, Xtreme Team, within that gym. I still enjoy competing as a masters lifter and hope to keep competing for many more years. I have a true passion for this sport.
At my age nothing is better than training with others who are all pushing themselves looking for that extra kg because we all feel great when anyone of us succeeds.
Thank you
Peter Gray
