From Circus to the Commonwealth Games

Getting Strong for Acrobatics Using Weightlifting & Crossfit

with Alyce Stephenson

RAW Barbell Club Podcast

Episode 25

Alyce is the most ripped Nurse you’ll ever meet. The Under 48kg lifter is a powerhouse of strength and power, but her finesse with the barbell comes from her unique background as a circus performer. In this episode of the podcast Andy and Alyce Stephenson sit down to chat about her short road to the Commonwealth Games.

We explore how she stumbled across acrobatics, and then found both CrossFit & Weightlifting as a way to improve her craft. This episode dives into Alyce’s story, how to train when you have ‘night-shifts’ (by optimizing all other areas of your life), and lastly how Alyce made the Commonwealth Games for Weightlifting.
