Two times throughout the year, FCG holds an in house challenge that raises money for a charity. To be honest, these are two of my favorite times of the year because I like seeing where your hard work at the gym pays off.
The challenge will be Saturday September 23rd at 9AM.
The cost to enter the challenge is $25.
Proceeds will go to the Bair family.
Caleb Bair, who is Brayden’s younger brother and who happened to pull 500 pounds in the last challenge without ever touching a Trap Bar was in a serious car accident July 4th. Brayden doesn’t talk about a lot it but his brother is in bad shape. He’s going to need a lot of therapy for the injuries he sustained. Because of this, we chose his family to raise money to help out with the medical expenses.
Now for the challenge.
We are going to expand the challenge to open it up for more members. We are not going to have any 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place finishes…this is a challenge for yourself!! Like usual, we are going to break it down into male and categories.
From there, we broke it down into, blue and red divisions.
