Grip Strength Test
Squat Challenge
Strength Photo Booth
Your hands reveal more than you think. Grip strength is one of the most powerful predictors of longevity — find out where you stand in under a minute.
You'll get two attempts with professional equipment, see how you compare, and earn bonus raffle tickets along the way.
Step up to the bar and take on our guided squat challenge — designed to be approachable, supportive, and fun. You'll have 30 seconds with coaching and encouragement every step of the way.
Why it matters:
Lower body strength is one of the strongest predictors of mobility and independence as you age.
How many reps can you complete in 30 seconds?
Grab a prop, strike a pose, and celebrate being part of something meaningful. Whether it's your first lift or you're a seasoned athlete — this moment is worth capturing.
Lift. Laugh. Share.

Strength is one of the most important predictors of long-term health, independence, and quality of life.
Yet many women are never given accessible, welcoming ways to begin.
The Strength Initiative is a physician-founded nonprofit expanding women's access to science-based strength training for longer, healthier lives.
Your ticket purchase helps fund affordable programs, scholarships, and community access — whether you attend or not.
