🫟 SPRING SHOWDOWN 2026 🫟

📍 VENUE
Raw Strength Gym
Unit 1 Trinity Court Warrington WA3 6QT

⚖️ WEIGH IN
Weigh in times are on the NW Powerlifting website on the schedule under Spring Showdown. Lifters will be required to show their British Powerlifting Membership and give their openers to the weigh in stewards. Weigh in will be done in order of the list published. The weigh in room is through reception on the right hand side as you enter the gym.

🏋🏻‍♀️ WARM UP
The warm up area is behind the platform and can be accessed via the walkway to the right of the platform next to the weigh in room.

The Warm Up area will be limited to lifters and one coach per lifter only. There will be no spectators allowed in the warm up area and warm up stewards will ask anyone to leave without the required wristband in order to keep the space clear for competitors.

Due to limited space, we ask that you store your bags and belongings during the competition in the holding area on the left of the spectator seating behind the curtained barrier.

Once warmed up, lifters will await their attempts in this holding area on the left of the spectator seating.

👏 SPECTATORS
Entry fee for adults is £4 and U16s enter for free when accompanied by an adult.

🍦 REFRESHMENTS
Hot & Cold drinks will be available to purchase at reception plus homemade bakes.

🚗 PARKING
As this competition is fully subscribed parking is going to be limited. Please park along the main road on the side of the grass verge. Please do not park in the bays outside the gym or belonging to other businesses.

Any questions please contact us.
We hope you have a great weekend!

We don’t need more space.
We need more work.

We stripped it back. Cut the excess. Rebuilt it with purpose.

Every rack earns its place. Every machine serves a mission. Every session hits harder.

New kit.
Upgraded platforms.
Top-spec machines landing.
Memberships capped.
No overcrowding. No coasting. No passengers.

This isn’t a commercial gym chasing numbers.
This is Raw Strength.

If you’re here, you’re here to train.
If you stay, you’ll get better.

Smaller space.
Heavier lifts.
Higher standard.

Welcome to the next phase. 💪
