⚔️ 25 DAYS OUT. THAT’S IT. ⚔️

25 days from now, the doors open. Athletes from across Florida and beyond will walk into the Havert L. Fenn Center and take their shot on one of the biggest stages on the Treasure Coast.

The platforms go live. The crowd fills the arena. The first athlete steps onto the competition floor.

And for one day, the Havert L. Fenn Center becomes the epicenter of strength sports on the Treasure Coast.

The question is:

Will you be one of them?

On July 11th, The Iron Knightmare VIII brings together Olympic Weightlifting, Powerlifting, and Arm Wrestling athletes from across Florida and beyond to test themselves, represent their teams, chase PRs, and be a part of something bigger than a single lift, but a full day of competition, energy, and community unlike anything else in South Florida.

This isn’t just another local meet.

This is your opportunity to:

🏋️ Hit the platform in front of a packed crowd. ⚔️ Represent your team on a major stage. 🔥 Chase a PR, qualify, break records, or simply prove to yourself what you’re capable of. 🤝 Spend the day surrounded by athletes who understand the work it takes to get here.

USA Olympic Weightlifting.
USPA Powerlifting. South Florida Arm Wrestling League

Three sports. One arena. One community.

The countdown has officially entered the final stretch.

Training cycles are wrapping up. Openings are becoming limited. The platform is waiting.

Don’t spend July 12th wishing you had registered on June 16th.

Because years from now, nobody talks about the training session they almost did.

They talk about the competitions they showed up for.
The friendships made. The battles fought. The moments that mattered.

If you’ve been waiting for the right competition...
This is it.
