About this Event
IRON MEN is an in-person weekly fitness and mentoring programme for Black men aged 18–25 in Waltham Forest.
What to expect
Meet every Sunday to train together and grow together. The programme includes an outdoor bootcamp on three Sundays each month and a coaching workshop on the last Sunday. Build strength, consistency and confidence through fitness, mentoring and a supportive brotherhood.
The bootcamp
Our sessions mix calisthenics, circuit training and high-intensity intervals, using your own bodyweight and simple kit like cones and mats. Expect press-ups, squats, sprints and team challenges, with a proper warm-up and cool-down every week. Every exercise can be scaled up or down, so you’ll be challenged whatever your starting point.
