Ep. 327: Miranda Ulrey | Squatting 180 at 59, Winning Junior Worlds, and What's Next
Philosophical Weightlifting PodcastShow Notes
Miranda Ulrey has competed with and beaten the best of the best. She's a junior world champ, Pan Am champ, and plans on making a statement at the Olympic Games in 2028.
Even with a huge social media following, no other podcasts or interviews exist that deep dive into her background as a competitive weightlifter.
In this episode, we discuss her introduction to the sport, what's kept her competing at the highest level, and a few of her favorite variations (hint: she's very good at them).
Enjoy.
