425kg Squat - by Ai Temaki at the Oceanias yesterday World Powerlifting and Powerlifting Australia

Best seat in the house. But man. Stressful 🤣

Tested, powerbar, sleeves walked out of combo.

When I first started the ATWR was 413kg. I watched it be set in person at the Fitness Expo April 2014 ( the event that made me start RAW_Strength_GYM ) by Ray "Ray Ray" Williams who himself has since done 490kg 🫠

How far the game has come. And it isn't slowing down.

THE RAW STRENGTH FITNESS ASSESSMENT IS OFFICIALLY LIVE. 💪

After plenty of trial and error, we’ve finally got it where we want it and the scoring system is officially set.

This is our version of what we believe "GYM FITNESS" should look like.

It’s part challenge, part assessment, and a test of far more than just lifting weights. You’ll need:

🏋️ Strength
🔥 Endurance
🎯 Skill
🧠 Strategy
📊 Self-awareness ie: knowing your abilities and how to pace yourself.

Maximum scores will be almost impossible to achieve. Which is 210 points.

Which is maximum on each element and also done in under 60 minutes which is a 10 point bonus.

Completed in OVER 90 minutes will minus 10 points.

100 points is our PASSING grade.

That said, I already know people who will look at this test and think they'll absolutely smash it without breaking a sweat. 😂

But please note I know a HANDFUL of people who can max this score. So come prepared to hurt if 200 is your goal.

For the average gym-goer, I’d expect somewhere around 50–100 points.

To break 100 points, our standard of "that's gym fit " you’re going to need to be pretty exceptional and realistically, you’re probably going to be an athlete of some description.

And yes… I’m sure looking at the assessment will raise a few questions.

*Please note:* the assessment can only be completed under the supervision of Ella or myself at RAW. If you have questions, come directly to either of us and we’ll explain anything you need to know.

And trust me…

As someone who has just done the test myself, it is exactly the right level of fun and terrible. 😂

For reference Danni achieved 125 and myself (Matt) 130.

Good luck. You’re going to need it. 💀

Also, if you're ever unsure on what to do for a session. This is a wicked full body slog 🤣 I am sore.

To reiterate this is purely based on what we at RAW think is a fun standard of judgement.

This weekend some stuff went down.

The strongest grandmother I know (maybe strongest in Australia? Probably tbh) won another event. Tassie Cup.

Besting the Australian Powerlifting Alliance National Record by 46kg. Casually without missing a lift.

150/100/210kg 9/9 with 27 white lights. An absolute masterclass of

At 56years young Beth Tassell is only getting started having only been competing for a few years.

Before joining up with us Beth bombed her first comp on bench. And a casual conversation of "dude you could be amazing come let me teach you some stuff" turned into one of the most impressive careers I've had the pleasure to follow.

Next up is Women of Power in November. Then who knows... Literally sky's the limit. 500kg total before 60. No doubt.

Phil is back and was finally able to collect his award.

Spirit Award from our National event.

An award is I did up with which represents longevity, grit, determination and competitiveness while still being kind and friendly and giving back.

A perfect award for the man who's done over 30 years of lifting and whom I had to fight into my car to take him to hospital for bicep surgery because "I need to do my last squats"

Absolute legend.
