Together We Lift is coming to the North East! Ashington to be precise at The Unit in Ashington. A massive thank you to Ross for supporting this event and welcoming the opportunity to work with us in raising vital funds, and awareness for local mental health charity EveryTurn.

Who should sign up for this event?
EVERYONE! Seriously.

If you are an open’s men’s strongman but want to brush up or get a difference perspective on your lifts then this event is for you.

If you are a complete beginners, have never touched a bar bell let alone a log. This event is for you.

Ultimately you will be split into equal ability groups to ensure your experience of the event is tailored to you.

What does the event consist of?
We will open the doors at 9am, with the view to the first lift taking place at 10am. The even itself comprises of four core event stations that will be supported by elite level coaches who are there for the purpose of working with you to improve your form, technique and even your confidence.

In order to ensure you are surrounded by similar ability lifters we split the groups into equal ability groups using the information you provide at the point of entering.

How many people per equal ability group?
Again, in the interest of protective everyone’s mental health we will cap this event at 28 meaning their will be no more than 7 per group, however we usually end up with 5 people per group.

What are the four event stations at Together We Lift In Aid Of EveryTurn?
The team at Together We Lift and the team at The Unit are coming together to host the below event stations.

• Max Deadlift (Axle barbell both 50mm & 60mm available)
• Overhead Medley. Log Press into Monster Dumbbell
• Yoke carry.
• Strength Register Sandbag Toss.

The hero event. The ALFitness Team Deadlift Bar.
At the end of each event day, after you have completed the four event stations in your equal ability groups, we all come together as a collective to take part in the hero event which is our ALFitness Team Deadlift Bar.

We run this event on a raising bar format, which allows each pairing to dip in and out when and where they see fit. Depending on what weight we are at, we increase the weight in 40-50kg increments, then as we get towards the top sets we taper this off.

What is the point of the team deadlift bar?
It is the event that brings everything together. It is practical demonstration of how Together We Are Stronger. It highlights the importance of open communication as in order to move the bar smoothly you must communicate and listen to your partner.

Please note:
As part of the sign up process we will ask you for your current personal best on each event to allow us to create the equal ability groups.
