Competition is organic marketing. And something more than that.

The six competitions Storiestrong runs each year started as a way to give members a real destination a date in the calendar that makes every training session count.

What they became is something more. A competition at Storiestrong is the moment the gym proves what it says it is. The environment, the atmosphere, the standard of performance from members who've been coached properly it speaks for itself.

Every person who walks through the door as a spectator or competitor and hasn't trained here before leaves knowing exactly what the gym is. That's the point.

Proper Competition Format

Full powerlifting rules, qualified judges, and proper attempt selection and flight structure. Not a modified version of the real thing, but the real thing, run properly in a facility designed for it.

Open to Non-Members

Entries are open to invited athletes beyond the Storiestrong membership, and the meet is big enough to be meaningful while staying small enough to be run properly.
