Event Overview

Be Defiant is back with an all new Same Sex Threes Competition. We want to celebrate everything we love about functional fitness and more specifically how being active positively affects our mental health. There will be a range of vendors and event partners on site for the event for you to browse between workouts. Be Defiant Same Sex Threes will be structured to allow every one of any level to take part and test themselves both physically and mentally by splitting the weekend into two days. Saturday the 27th July will be Scaled and Sunday the 28th July will be RX. 

Physical Challenge

Be Defiant Same Sex Threes will be hosted as usual at CrossFit Derby which is a well-established CrossFit Affiliate making it the perfect venue for our first event. CrossFit Derby’s Head Coach Luke Townsend will be programming events to test your mental and physical fortitude using classic CrossFit inspired formatting. A range of equipment will be used to provide a well-rounded test which will include but is not limited to Concept 2 Rowers, Air Bikes, Dumbbells, Kettlebells, Plyometric Boxes, Gymnastics Rig and of course the mighty Barbell. 

Which category should you enter? Don’t worry, we have you covered! Prior to the competition a series of workouts will be released for pairs to complete and submit. Your scores from these workouts will determine your category and therefore the day you compete to ensure athletes of similar abilities will be competing against each other. Movement demonstrations and standards will be given on the day.
