💛 Happy Monday to you all! 💛

What a weekend, aye!? Hope you all made it home okay after the state of the motorways yesterday 🤦🏻‍♀️ we LOVE a huge traffic jam after a busy weekends work.

Right from the heart, we just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to each and every lifter for choosing us and for being absolutely incredible human beings. You all lifted with such professionalism and technical grace, it was a pleasure to watch and ref you all.

NoDumbelles was the brain child of the amazing Tania George () with the vision of building and supporting the growth of women within powerlifting. Here we are, 10 years later, we’re thrilling to be continuing on with this great event and creating a space for experienced and brand new lifters to push their barbell boundaries!

This weekend you all brought such a supportive and buzzing atmosphere. You embodied what NoDumbelles was made for - To cheer on your fellow lifter and challenge your own capabilities.

We’re so proud of every one of you!

Thank you to and at .s.c to letting us turn your place upside down and built the event. We couldn’t do this without you!

Thank you to our friends and family with the hours and hours of behind the scene organisation and set up.

Thank you to our referees, our spotters and loaders, our table crew, and everyone in the audience cheering on!

We hope to see you next year 💛

Lots of love, Catherine and Trish xox

We are SO SO SO thankful to everyone who lifted and every single person who helped and sponsored this event.

to be able to give our lifters such amazing prizes and bundles, was so incredibly rewarding. We cannot thank you enough for your kind and generous donations ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for getting both of us through the weekend mentally (hehe) including the brutal amount of hours it takes to set up events!

Thank you for being a bloody TOP NOTCH platform crew. Not a single misload and no injuries at all ❤️

Thank you (and for a full day of reffing and banter receiving), and for helping with the construction and deconstruction of the mono lift and general ‘best practice’ set up ❤️

Thank you for AS ALWAYS running a streamlined table service, paired with the lovely Sam, and including nailing her first time expediting 👏🏻

Thank you and for letting us literally take over your gym and turn everything upside down. Your hospitality and support has been amazing and we can’t wait to do it all again next year ❤️❤️

Finally, thank you to the Queen of Everything, for entrusting her brain child comp in our hands. We are still humbled and honoured to continue this legacy on. We hope we did you proud!

CANNOT WAIT TO SEE YOU ALL AGAIN NEXT YEAR.
