We’re throwing a weightlifting party and you’re invited! Stop by over the weekend of August 26th-27th to support our lifting team as they throw huge amounts of weight over their heads, and help raise money for our Brooklyn Youth Athletics program!
== About The Weightlifting Meet ==
This will be the 4th year of the Brooklyn Barbell Open: the two-day meet is sanctioned and conducted by the Metropolitan Local Weightlifting Committee of the U.S.A. Weightlifting Federation.
Participants will have three attempts to perform a 1 rep max snatch, and three attempts to perform a 1 rep max clean and jerk.
The meet will be run by USAW official standards. For more rules/information surrounding the meet, please refer to the IWF rules and regulations. Singlets are required!

Twenty percent of all meet entry and spectator fees will go towards supporting our youth athlete program, that offers a positive framework and community through CrossFit to help at-risk youth grow into stronger and healthier individuals both physically and mentally.
