Strength X Lift Off 2024

Sleven is proud to present a one-of-a-kind same-sex pairs weightlifting event that will hurtle you through three events in an hour on Saturday 19th October.

This is not your average weightlifting competition, each event includes twists to maximise fun and better yet, there's no gymnastics!

The Lift Off is for members, non-members, weightlifters and anyone interested in slinging some tin with us! Expect loud music, the sound of heavy barbells dropping and a special Sleven atmosphere.

OTHER DETAILS

• Sinclair coefficient scoring taking into account combined team bodyweight/sex.
• Part B notes: If the percentage is in between weights, it is rounded up to the nearest 2.5kg increment based on bodyweight.
  - Can be any variation of shoulder to overhead: push press/jerk/split jerk so long as knees and hips are fully extended with barbell locked out overhead and feet in line.
  - Press outs allowed
  - Score = 3 points per complex. 1 point given for 3 reps completed. So if an athlete is mid complex but has completed 4 full complexes + 3 cleans + 2 front squats, they will get 13 points.
