Strongman Class

Unleash Your Inner Beast At CFD

Step outside the ordinary and into a class that challenges you in a whole new way. Our Strongman-style training blends raw power, functional strength, and mental grit, inspired by the world’s strongest athletes, but built for all levels.

Based just 5 minutes from Birmingham City Centre, CFD’s Strongman Class is your gateway to next-level strength, resilience, and confidence.


What to Expect

Strongman training focuses on real-world strength using unconventional tools and movements you won’t find in a standard gym.

Every session is coached, structured, and scalable, no experience required.

What you’ll do

  • Flip tyres, carry yokes, hoist sandbags, and drag sleds
  • Build full-body strength using awkward, non-balanced loads
  • Improve grip strength, core stability, and explosive power
  • Train in a high-energy, supportive group environment

Built for HYROX, CrossFit & Functional Fitness

HYROX Athletes

Strongman movements transfer directly to HYROX race demands. Expect improved performance in:

  • Sled push & sled pull
  • Farmer carries
  • Sandbag lunges
  • Moving efficiently under fatigue

You’ll build the strength, power, and work capacity needed to dominate each station.

CrossFit Athletes

Add variety and resilience to your training with odd-object strength. Strongman work:

  • Improves carry capacity and holding strength
  • Builds confidence with heavy, awkward loads
  • Enhances performance in WODs that demand grit and durability

Functional Fitness Fans

Get strong in the ways that matter most: lifting, carrying, dragging, and bracing under load. Strongman training is one of the most effective ways to build true functional strength and mental toughness.

Who Is This Class For?

  • Experienced athletes looking to push their limits
  • CrossFit members wanting to develop raw strength
  • HYROX competitors preparing for race day
  • Anyone who wants to feel stronger, more capable, and more confident

All movements are scalable. Every athlete is coached. Everyone belongs.
