BFT PODIUM Series brings a global fitness competition to your local studio
Hybrid fitness events, the fast-growing sport featuring functional workout stations, have exploded from niche challenge to mainstream phenomenon. Now, homegrown fitness franchise Body Fit Training (BFT) is bringing the action to your local studio with the launch of its PODIUM Series, a brand-new competitive fitness competition landing in more than 300 studios across 10+ countries simultaneously on Sunday 2 August 2026. Best of all, everyone’s invited. While BFT’s 65,000+ members worldwide will be first to the start line, the doors are open to anyone keen to test themselves, meaning you don’t need to be a member to grab a ticket and race at your nearest studio.
Teams of two compete in men’s, women’s or mixed pairs, choosing from Rookie, Open or Pro categories depending on experience level. The competition runs across four 15-minute zones: Strength, Conditioning, Strength Endurance and the Finisher, with every team’s time tracked on a worldwide leaderboard so you can see how you stack up against racers around the globe. Wave times will be confirmed by individual studios in the week of the event, so keep an eye on the BFT Booking App closer to the date.
