We are very happy to announce The Big Lift, a charity deadlifting event, which is happening 12-4pm, December 6 2025 at Wild + United Athletics! The goal of this event is to invite non competitive lifters to test their 1 rep max deadlift in a safe and fun environment, at an event that’s raising funds for local environmentally focussed foundations.

​

All profits will go to the following charities: Morrison Creek Streamkeepers, Project Watershed and Comox Valley Land Trust. 

 

Many of our clients who attend our Strong + United class spend all year working on improving their deadlift.  The most important thing to us is that folks feel strong and confident in both their lifting sessions and their lives. Sometimes it’s fun to test out how heavy you can deadlift safely and this is a great opportunity to do so under the supervision of our regular coaches in a fun and supportive environment.  Friends and family and the public are absolutely welcome to come and cheer you on!
