    Strength in the North!
    A/BPU will host the first ever qualifier at Northern Strength, Warrington’s home for strength and fitness.

    With state-of-the-art powerlifting equipment, close knit lifting community and leadership by example, this is the place for a good, old-fashioned grassroots powerlifting with modern twist.

    Livestream, specialty bars and monolifts. Calibrated plates, skilled staff and nifty announcing. These things are all present but they are the cherry on top. The important part is never forgetting what it is really about: lifters pushing their boundaries on the platform.

    Northern Strength welcomes lifters of all levels to partake in the first ever qualifier for A/BPU!
