Fight Club Meets Functional Fitness: Rush Club
Through head to head competition (think Fight Club style), Rush Club Nation is bringing back raw competition, where when the bell rings, the one with the toughest mental strength will emerge as the victor. Watch their video below for a sneak peak at what it’s all about. And if you’re around in June 2016 (date tbd), be sure to buy tickets to experience the Nation in person!
“No matter how strong we are, everyone faces days where it feels as though life has its boot on your neck and steadily applying pressure. The trick is to find that mental focus, optimism and love to will yourself through to brighter days. All in all, that’s what Rush Club is all about: developing the mind of a champion.”
Rush Club is a head to head single elimination functional fitness competition. Unlike other competitive fitness events, Rush Club uses weight classes to match up athletes. We take more of a “fitness to weight ratio” approach which makes the event much more exciting to watch. Each workout is announced 30 days prior to the event so that athletes can train and develop proficiency as well as a strategy to maximize effectiveness. The workout length will vary but will never be longer than 10 minutes. The winner gets the purse, the Rush Club belt, and bragging rights.

Rush Club Competitive Fitness Championship is about creating and telling compelling stories of the human spirit.
Stories about heroes who refuse the call to be ordinary and cross the threshold to pursue the call to victory. Stories about how people are tested, how they overcome enemies both inside and out. Stories about seizing the sword, going into battle, and emerging victorious.
