Get graded in Gym Fitness ...

World Gym Challenge is a grading system like no other. It is a complete training system which allows you over a three year period to develop into a graded Gym Athlete. There is not another system like it and it will get you results, because that is all it does. It determines if you are getting fitter, stronger and faster in the World Gym Challenge.

To do this there are many options and methods to training, but you must find the best one for you . The World Gym Challenge website allows you to record every step of your journey in seeing how you are progressing.

  • Each subscribing Gym is given their own database to keep careful records stored online.
  • Each WGC member is given a free database to record their results onto.
  • Each Personal Trainer is given free access to their clients results.

To get graded you must take an official WGC Gym fitness test event at a subscribing gym and as you do your results will be entered automatically into The Ultimate Gym Athlete Leader Board.

You can then see and search online anybody who has entered the World Gym Challenge.
