Our Coaches and Club Programmes

Club programmes will be available for full members of the club, though it is not compulsory, and members are welcome to follow their own programmes. To enquire about the programmes, you can contact our President and Captains (see below).

Competing

Several local non-sanctioned and sanctioned competitions are available throughout the year to athletes whenever they decide they’re ready to step on the platform, with the aid of either coach.

In March is the official BUCS, IPF sanctioned university powerlifting competition, though due to recent rule changes, you must have a qualifying total in order to enter, this simply means totalling a certain weight at an IPF sanctioned competition prior to the march competition, please email our president or captain for more info.

Our in-person sessions will be held every Wednesday at P10 Fitness, from 2:30 to 4:00 and Fridays at Crossfit Vauxhall, 1:30-4:00. P10 has specialised competition level equipment perfect for anyone looking to compete soon.
