Four coach supported event training stations consist of

You will get 40 minutes per event station within your equal ability groups, where the coaches are there to assist you through your lifts.

Our events always conclude with a Tandem Deadlift on our ALFitness Team Deadlift Bar which is a purpose build 47kg stiff Axle Bar, which even under 505kg did not show signs of bend in our event at The Unit last year.

All profit from this event will be donated to our charity partner for this event which is Mind Derbyshire
