Fall 2026 Announcements!

We have a couple of fun things coming up that we wanted to get on everyone's radar!

🎃 LIONS DEN HALLOWEEN SHIRTS
Our Halloween shirts are available for preorder now!

This year's design features our Lions Den skeleton lion in a pumpkin, along with our new favorite Halloween training motto:

DEAD TIRED.
STILL TRAINING.

We have both men's and ladies' styles available.

$30 each

🛒 Shirts are available for purchase through StreamFit.

🗓️ Preorder deadline: October 3 at 10:00 PM

Once the preorder closes, we won't be ordering extras, so make sure you get your order in through StreamFit before the deadline!

🎄🏋️ WINTER “OLY-ISH” BARBELL BASH
Sleigh the Weights!

We're having an In-House Barbell Showoff on Saturday, December 5 at 9:30 AM!

This is a members-only, just-for-fun weightlifting event designed to give you a chance to test yourself, lift with your friends, and have some fun without the pressure of a traditional competition.

And yes... holiday costumes and festive outfits are encouraged! 🎅🎄

📅 When: Saturday, December 5

⏰ Time: 9:30 AM

📍 Where: Lions Den Fitness

👊 Who: Lions Den members

🎄 Theme: Christmas/Holiday

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Spectators: Bring your family and friends to cheer you on!

Choose Your Lifts
You'll choose up to TWO lifts when you register, and we'll place you into the appropriate division based on your choices:

🏋️ OLY
Snatch + Clean & Jerk

🏋️ OLY-ISH
Snatch + Clean

🏋️ OLY-POPS
Snatch OR Clean

If you choose Clean, you cannot also choose Clean & Jerk. Pick one!

How It Works
3 attempts per lift, just like a traditional meet.
Athletes will lift from lightest to heaviest as weights continue to increase.
Once you pass on a weight, you cannot go back down.
Athletes must wait for the judges to lower the bar before approaching it again — nobody needs to get flattened like a pancake! 😂
We'll also have a Spirit Award for the athlete who brings the most holiday spirit!
The goal is simple: come have fun, see what you can do, and cheer on your fellow Lions Den members!

🎅 Practice Day
We'll have a practice day on a Saturday sometime in November so everyone can get familiar with how the event will work. The date is TBD, and we'll announce it once it's finalized.

📝 Registration
Registration will be a simple online form where you'll provide:

Name
Age
Which lift(s) you'd like to perform — maximum of 2
We'll use your selections to place you into the appropriate division.

More information and the registration link will be coming soon!

Let's get spooky, festive, and strong! 🦁🎃🎄
