Equipment and funding for the contest are being donated in part by sponsors, including Apollo Athletics, Atlantis Strength, Iron Bull, and Fit City.

“It isn’t unusual for many schools throughout the nation to lack the ability to restock their weight rooms with up-to-date equipment for their students to use,” Kyle Lang, owner of Show Me Weights. “We are excited about this contest and look forward to positively changing one lucky high school’s fitness room!”

Since opening their doors in 2009, Show Me Weights has set up hundreds of gyms, high school weight rooms, and home fitness studios with new and used commercial-quality fitness equipment from manufacturers across the nation. They proudly serve the needs of individuals, schools, fitness centers, and other organizations looking to shape up, maximize their strength, and lead healthier lives.
