AlphaShowdown At Life Time Fitness West County

Alpha Showdown participants will test their body's core energy systems through three gauntlets - power, strength, and endurance. Winners from each club competition will go on to compete in the regionals, with the winners advancing to the national competition.Β 

Alpha Showdown pushes competitors to their mortal limits, while creating a comprehensive performance challenge that only the most well trained athlete can endure. Participants will first be tested in the power gauntlet through foundational movements that test raw power and mental toughness. Next, competitors will experience the strength gauntlet including a series of resistance exercises, which are designed to test strength and endurance through various weighted movements. Finally, survivors will finish with the endurance gauntlet, a non-stop intense obstacle course that athletes must press through pain before crossing the finish line.

Registration is now open for all local Alpha Showdown competitions. To register go to www.alphashowdown.com and select your region. Please register to compete at the Life Time destination closest to you.
