A Pathway, Not Just a Class

Three Stages of Development

CUBS isn’t a single class — it’s a structured three-stage pathway designed to take a child from their very first experience of movement and coordination all the way through to competitive weightlifting. Every stage builds on the last.

Stage 1 · Age 6+

Movement Foundations

30-minute sessions focused on body awareness, coordination, balance and basic movement patterns. Fun, energetic and designed to build a love of physical activity. Mon, Wed, Fri at 16:00 and 16:30.

📅 Mon / Wed / Fri · 16:00 & 16:30 (30 min)

Stage 2 · Progressed from Stage 1

Skill Development

Introduction to the Olympic lifts in an age-appropriate, technique-first environment. Athletes begin to develop the fundamental skills of weightlifting alongside physical conditioning. Juniors (U12s) and Seniors (13+) in separate sessions.

📅 Tue / Thu · U12: 16:00–17:00 · 13+: 17:00–18:00

Stage 3 · Club Training

Full Club Programme

Full club training alongside the adult programme. Athletes at this stage are developing competition-ready technique and beginning to represent Crazy Strength at national events. Five days per week training available.

📅 Tue / Thu + Mon / Wed / Fri · Multiple sessions
