Have you always been intrigued by the world of weightlifting, yet the prospect of stepping into a competitive platform feels overwhelming? Introducing our In-House "Mock" Weightlifting Meet, scheduled for Sunday, May 26th. This event is designed to provide you with a taste of the weightlifting competition experience in a friendly, encouraging environment. We will also have a meal to follow the event.

Date: Sunday May 26, starting at about 9:30am (likely lifting in the morning then having meal at lunch)

What to Expect: Our In-House "Mock" Weightlifting Meet is your chance to dip your toes into the competitive waters without the pressure of a fully sanctioned event. It's an ideal setting to familiarize yourself with the mechanics of competing while being guided and supported by experienced coaches and fellow weightlifting enthusiasts. It will also be a lot of fun! We will have a meal to follow the event as well, right at the gym.
