Cardiff University Barbell Club

Cardiff University Barbell Club – CUBC

CUBC is a sports club focusing on all strength sports, primarily, Powerlifting and Olympic Weightlifting, sport specific and General S&C. Training out of the university strength and conditioning centre; we aim to promote health and fitness within the student community and make strength sports as accessible as possible to all. Beginners are very welcome, we run programmes for all abilities, CUBC is a supportive community of like-minded people who motivate each other to achieve their fitness goals, whatever they may be. 

What do we actually do?
CUBC is all about weights, in short, we like picking things up. Sessions are a great opportunity to meet people with similar training goals, similar interests, a mutual love of food and dislike of anything cardio.

Powerlifting:
It’s all about the big 3,
-Squat
-Bench Press
-Deadlift

Olympic Weightlifting:
Focus is on the two classical competition lifts,
-Snatch
-Clean & Jerk

During CUBC sessions, you will find us training hard, a good atmosphere and always pushing each other to do the best we can. We benefit from each other’s experience as well as partnerships with qualified coaches. 
However it’s not all about gym, we have an active social calendar, a wide variety of events catering to everybody’s tastes.
