Did You Catch Us at Strength in Depth?
Linking up with our headline partner, WIT, we hit the Eleiko x NOCCO arena at Strength in Depth for a class takeover Battle Cancer style!
Held over the 24-26 January, Strength in Depth is the UK's official Sanctional CrossFit event and saw many of Battle Cancer's friends including Zack George take to the floor.
Giving spectators a taste of Battle Cancer competition, our Head Programmer and coach, Matt Peterson, joined forces with WIT's Head of Training, Gus Vaz Tostes, to put the class through their paces.
Delivering a fast and furious workout of signature Battle Cancer movements, Matt and Gus combined playful warmups with simple partner workouts with Eleiko plates for an accessible class that left our participants on the floor!
A free team entry to any Battle Cancer event was awarded to Nicola Jeffs and her team mate for showing incredible effort and teamwork. Congrats!

Great recap of the Strength in Depth event! It's awesome to see Battle Cancer bringing that high-energy vibe and supporting a great cause. The class takeover with WIT sounds like it was a blast, and huge congrats to Nicola and her team! By the way, if anyone needs a brain break after all that intensity, I sometimes unwind with a quick unit circle quiz to reset my focus.
I really appreciated the insight on how digital instruments are enhancing live performances at events like Strength in Depth. It’s fascinating to see traditional harmonium sounds being adapted with modern technology to create richer musical experiences. harmonium player
Sounds like such a fun class takeover — love that Matt and Gus kept it playful but still left everyone on the floor, especially with those Eleiko plates. And congrats to Nicola on the free team entry! By the way, I keep a free Zakat calculator I like to share: https://zakatestimator.com/

Could you share what signature workout movements featured most prominently in this special arena class? --glow up
This class takeover looked absolutely electric! Props to Matt and Gus for keeping the energy so high with those brutal partner lifts. After crushing a workout like that, honestly, nothing beats unwinding with a quick scroll through cursed images to reset your brain. Huge congrats to Nicola’s squad on that free entry win!
