Barbells for Balls. Raising money for testicular Cancer

Barbells for Balls – 12-Hour Deadlift Challenge for Testicular Cancer Support

We’re proud to announce Barbells for Balls, a charity event organised by Gdsm of Ypres Company to support one of our fellow Guardsmen who has recently battled testicular cancer.

The main event is a 12-hour deadlift challenge where participants will deadlift the body weight of our affected Guardsman, aiming to complete as many reps as possible throughout the day. Every rep counts, and together we’ll tally the total weight moved — a true show of strength and solidarity from our unit.

The challenge runs from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and everyone is welcome to join — no matter your fitness level or how many reps you can do. Our team will keep the momentum going all day, demonstrating our support and unity.

After the challenge, we’ll host a barbecue cookout and bar for everyone to relax, enjoy good food and drinks, and continue raising awareness for testicular cancer.

Donations raised will be distributed to Cancer research Uk and The Grenadier Guards Association
