00:15I've got big hands and she was like,
00:17right, you're in. You're perfect.
00:19I'm, like, vibrating, like, just from the noise.
00:22It's not even my nerves.
00:23I was like, I'm in the moment.
00:25That barbell in the centre ref is what I'm focused on.
00:29And I was able to focus on that.
00:31It's about showing that, especially women over 40 like me,
00:35that there's life in us, yeah, you know?
00:38Yeah, it's a fairly full-time commitment,
