Event Stations

You will get 40 minutes per event station within your equal ability groups, where coaches will support you through every lift.

• Deadlift
• Overhead Press
• Sled pull
• Sandbags

We always finish with something special.

Our events conclude with the Tandem Deadlift using the ALFitness Team Deadlift Bar.

This purpose-built 47kg stiff axle bar embodies our message around mental health, in that Together We Are Stronger. The Barbell has already proven itself under extreme loads, holding firm at over 565kg during our current record lift at Nova Performance in St Ives, Cambridgeshire.

This is where the full community comes together. One bar. Two lifters. One shared effort.
