Nova Scotia's Strongest
***NOVICE CLASS*** With the growing interest in our novice class we have decided that with each event we will have lighter options available for those who may not be experienced enough to lift the minimum weights. We want everyone to be successful and able to take part. This is the whole point of having a “novice class”. So if you are hesitant on wether or not you are “strong enough” to take part don’t let that hold you back. We got you! Also the novice class is intended for beginners. If you’re an experienced athlete this class is not for you.
