SZN 7 EP 4 - Elliott Sykes (@malicious_lifts) - EYES ON THE TOP SPOT!

On this episode of Corner of the CRCL, we sit down with junior powerlifting standout Elliot Sykes for a high-energy conversation about chasing greatness, building toward the Open division, and what it really takes to hunt the top spot in the sport. From dominating as a 74 kg lifter to discussing the possibility of moving up to the stacked 83 kg class, Elliot opens up about the mindset, sacrifices, and motivation behind constantly pushing the limits of what he can become. We also dive into the current landscape of the 83 kg division, the heavy hitters standing at the top, and why Elliot has had his eyes on the throne for a long time. But beyond the numbers and competition, this episode shows why so many people respect him...not just as a lifter, but as a genuinely good dude with an infectious energy and passion for the sport. A lot of laughs, a lot of intensity, and a lot of real talk...this is one you do not want to miss.

SZN 7 EP 3 . w/ I have no clue (@IPFCENTAL) - I see you..I see EVERYTHING!

Not everything in this sport is said out loud. Some things live in group chats. Back rooms. Comment sections. And some… get exposed through satire. We sat down with @IPFCENTAL — a name you’ve seen everywhere, even if you don’t know who’s behind it. What we found out? It’s bigger than one person. Bigger than jokes. Bigger than drama. It’s about giving lifters a voice. Calling out the culture. And pushing the sport forward… in a way only anonymity allows. This one’s raw. It’s honest. And it’s a good time from start to finish. Welcome to the circle. Tap in. You don’t want to miss this one. 🎧 Available now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and SoundCloud 👍 Like, comment, and subscribe #CornerOfTheCRCL #Powerlifting #FindYourStrength #1stPhorm #LetsEat
