Question 1

Do I need to be an experienced weightlifter do participate?

Accepted Answer

No - however, you do need to have deadlifted something before the event so that you have the technique in your body and so, can find your opening weight. If you are completely new to lifting, train with SuperPennie at their Misfits class every Saturday. TBF you should do this anyway cuz it's fun!

Question 2

What should I wear if I am participating?

Accepted Answer

Come dressed to be able to move comfortably and wear flat shoes/trainers. Costumes, glitter and camp welcome! Just make sure whatever you wear is something you can definitely deadlift safely in.
