Our squad had a great day Saturday at the Athletic Lab Winter Classic. Details to come but look at this crew! Could you ask for better? You could, but you wouldn’t find it.

TOMORROW! Let’s gooooo! 🙌

Join us Saturday, February 4th at 9 am for a Barbell Battle. The winner will receive bragging rights and maybe a fun prize. We will be raising travel funds for our Diamondfit Weightlifters heading to the in March.

How it works: Two bars/two platforms - one 15kg bar and one 20kg bar. The bars start empty and weights increase 2-5kg after all lifters have either attempted or passed. Each lifter is allowed two misses and the barbell weight increases until only one lifter remains on each platform: The Barbell Barbarians (aka winners)!

No press out rule, no judges. The goal is to lift big, have fun, and raise funds!
$10 minimum donation. Registration link will be out later this week. DM with any questions.

We will not have coached hours on Saturday, December 24th. All other training sessions remain the same this week! Hope to see you Tuesday or Thursday evening.

Members may use their 24/7 access to lift any time they’d like.

Stay strong! Happy Holidays!

Another week to work toward those goals. We’re training for AO1 next. DM to come train with us!
