Following the success of New Strength Era, Nexus Performance Melbourne returns with another highly anticipated APA competition on 15 August - you all asked for more and we're providing.

Our previous event set the tone for smooth flight transitions, strong platform energy, and exceptional warm-up flow. This meet builds on that momentum, delivering a professionally run, athlete-focused environment where lifters can perform at their absolute best.

Expect a serious platform, experienced officials and loaders, and an atmosphere provided to build hype and keep high energy across the day, getting spectators engaged. 

This is not golf, this isn't tennis, this is powerlifting and the environment we cultivate on comp day reflects that.

Equipment & Warm-Up

We pride ourselves on warm-up capacity and efficiency.

Warm-Up Room Access Includes:

• Five (5) Goliath V3 Combo Racks

• Two (2) ZeroW Monolifts

• Four (4) dedicated Deadlift Platforms

• Two Rogue Power Racks

• A large selection of competition-spec power bars

Come prepared. Bring your highest energy. Lift hard. Build your total.
