We covered plenty of old stories, injuries, questionable decisions and the general chaos that came with powerlifting during that time, but one part of the conversation stood out.

]]> Your Story Is Still Being Written: A Conversation With Daniel Holmes https://www.powerrackstrength.com/your-story-is-still-being-written-a-conversation-with-daniel-holmes/ Sat, 25 Jul 2026 03:30:58 +0000 https://www.powerrackstrength.com/?p=43809 I recently sat down with Daniel Holmes, someone I have known since high school. We graduated nearly 27 years ago, which is strange enough to say out loud. We had classes together, crossed paths through sports, and knew many of the same people, but there was still a great deal about Daniel’s story that I did not know.
