In-House Weightlifting Comp
This is what the weightlifting programme has been building toward since June. A full Olympic total on the day: snatch and clean and jerk, three attempts at each. We want to see the majority of the gym turn up for this, regardless of your level. $50 a person.
Important information
- Two sessions
- Women lift first, then the men.
- Women's session
- Weigh-in 9:00 to 10:00am. First lift 10:30am.
