We are excited to announce "Masters of the North", the only masters competition of its kind in the North of England. Teams of two will go head to head in a variety of workouts that test all aspects of fitness. You will have to strategise, work hard, lift heavy and move fast in order to fight for a spot on this year's podium and our coveted prices!

The two age categories will be 80+ and 100+. The category for which your team qualifies for is determined by the combined age of both athletes. Both athletes have to be at least 40 years of age. Example: Athlete 1 is 41 years old, Athlete 2 is 46 years old, for a combined age of 87 and therefore the 80+ age category. The minimum age for the 100+ division is a combined age of 100, meaning one athlete can be in their 40s and one athlete in their 50s.

Whilst the following does not constitute a list of movements that will be tested at this competition, this list of standards will give your team an idea of the level of capacity at Masters of the North:

• Row
