On January 1, IPF's rule changes kick in, starseed quiz and Hannie Smith and Brock Haywood's interpretations are key. Wonder how this will play out in the gym, maybe a coffee break read-up is in order, huh?

Wow, the IPF is changing the Technical Rules Book attachment style test on January 1st, 2024. I wonder how this will affect the athletes, especially with Hannie Smith and Brock Haywood's input. On my way to work, I was thinking, will this make the sport more fair or just more confusing?

I've been playing Drive Mad during short breaks. It's easy to start a quick session, yet challenging enough to keep coming back for another run.

Changes to the Technical Rules Book starting palm reading online January 1, 2024, huh? Wonder how this will affect the athletes and referees. I was on the subway reading this and thought, 'Wow, big changes ahead for powerlifting.'
