In Response To: Re: Am I lifting average for my weight? (Kyle Schubert)

We get nothing. Some lifters are sponsored by equipment companies, but those are just for equipment and not money. Powerlifting is a great example of a true garage sport. No one outside of our little circle of friends and family really care about what we do. We delude our selves and sometimes we like think other "straight" people understand or care, but that is just a delusion.
