Welcome to my first ever audio podcast interview!
Deadlifts and Death Metal is a local staple of the Melbourne heavy music scene, augmenting the metal community's love of sensory modulation through lifting and riffing.
We run through a mutual Q and A format, and take things both from my perspective as a neurospicy social worker, and Elissa's framework as a trainer/business entrepeneur.
