Path to Powerlifting: Free Bench Press Workshop

Path to Powerlifting is a new series of free workshops at ZeroW Wales, built for anyone who wants to learn the three competition lifts properly. We're starting with the bench press.

The session is led by the ZeroW coaching team and runs for an hour on the lifting floor. Whether you've never touched a barbell, you're a regular gym-goer who wants to bench with better technique, or you're thinking about your first powerlifting competition, you'll leave with a clear idea of how to set up and press well.

You don't need to be a ZeroW member to come along. Bring a friend.
