In this very special episode of the ZeroW Podcast, join Thomas Lilley for an in-depth conversation with Gavin Adin - IPF World-level and Sheffield competitor.
Listen as we go deep on what it actually costs to pursue greatness. Gavin doesn't hold back on the moments he got it wrong, the fear of being average, why powerlifting no longer feels like home, and what's driving him now that he's set his sights on something bigger than the sport.
- The origin story: a hailstorm, a world record, and a decision that changed everything
- Junior Worlds in Sweden with no handler, no recomp plan, and 30 minutes to weigh in
- What Sheffield is actually like as a lifter (and why it's the greatest powerlifting event on earth)
- The attempt selection mistake that cost him an Open World Championship
- Why powerlifting feels different now and what "outgrowing a sport" really means
- The three things Gavin is afraid of
- Adversity as an architect
- His next pursuit: acting. And why the timeline doesn't matter.
Closing words you need to hear: "If you're gonna take the island, burn the boats. God will steer, but you must row."
