    More advice for you, dear Kulli.
    I's had a random encounter with one of Raver's dear friends, one we call "Meat Geek", a self-describe nerd who is also an avid powerlifter. When I's mentioned that I's knew a person who was looking to become a powerlifter such as he, he recommended that you apprentice yourself to an established powerlifter who is willing to train (but ensure that they are willing and are a good person to train under) and help you through your course.
    He also suggested getting in contact with your local or national powerlifting organsiation/federation to see if they know of any acredited instructors, trainers and/or gyms in your local area. Since you are in England, best to try and find the United Kingdom Powerlifters Federation (if they are still around).
    Best of luck to ye.
    Peace

    Thanks for the advice.
    One of the problems I have with that situation is I live in a pretty small and not very well known town… there's probably very few (if any) powerlifters, especially ones willing to help me.
    Alas! I shall try and find out.

    There are more than you'd think. Just hit the gym, maybe get a trainer for the first couple sessions.

    By the way, if you feel anxeity about other weightlifters deriding you or something, I can assure you that such is unfounded.  I suspect that I am the weakest patron of my gym, but everybody is too preoccupied by his or her weights to notice, let alone note the asthenia of those around them.
