LEADERBOARD KICK-OFF Event

We’re building something new at Riverside — and we want you on the board.

Join us Saturday, August 23rd for a special kick-off lifting event to launch our members only Riverside Leaderboard. This is your shot to set the tone, test your limits, and claim your spot.

We'll be tracking three core lifts:
  • Bench Press
  • Back Squat
  • Deadlift

All lifts will be judged and verified by our Riverside trainers for fairness and consistency.

Not planning to lift? You’re still invited.
​
The competition is for members only, but the event is open to the public, so bring your squad to hype you up. We’ll have ___ posted outside selling burgers and a crew inside keeping the energy high while athletes lift. Come cheer, hang with the Riverside crew, and be part of the action.

We’re awarding medals to the top performers in each division — but only at the kickoff event on August 23rd. After that, the Strength Leaderboard stays open, and you can still challenge it anytime by booking with Stephen, our GM. But the medals? One-day only.
