Strength Circuit with Bristol Cooperative Gym
2024-05-02 18:00 - 19:00
All the benefits of resistance training without any of the crappy culture that’s become attached to it – just effective strength training with barbells and bodyweight.
In this class you will learn safe and efficient exercises that develop strength and mobility through moving against resistance. We will use a circuit of movements that have been carefully selected by our coaches to suit the needs of our members. Multiple options are given so you can choose an intensity that suits what you’re feeling that day.

All-Round Weightlifting with Bristol Cooperative Gym
2024-05-02 19:00 - 20:00
Experience the joy of lifting heavy things.
Develop strength through learning classic weightlifting exercises, drawing from powerlifting (squat, bench and deadlift), olympic weightlifting (snatch, clean and jerk) and the “forgotten” lifts of the 19th century strongmen and strongwomen (bent press, pullover, getup etc.).
The British Amateur Weightlifting Association used to recognise 150 competition lifts and now only adjudicates for three. All-Round Weightlifting aims to rescue the pleasure of lifting from that “sportification”, giving us more opportunities for play and experimentation so we can find the lifts that feel best for our bodies while building serious strength and mobility.
No experience is necessary! We will begin by lifting broomsticks and work up from there.
