Lift Off is the ultimate test of power, endurance, and grit. This competition brings athletes face to face with the three pillars of weightlifting, the Squat, Bench Press, and Deadlift in a unique format that blends heavy lifting, strategic pacing, and muscular endurance.
This competition isn’t just about chasing one rep maxes. It’s about performing under pressure, managing time wisely, and proving who can rise when the clock is ticking.
