Bakewell ALPHA 2025 Round up

Alpha 2025 was about best efforts. And this crew had it in spades.

“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and adversity (and 32oz of prime Derbyshire grass fed meat)." 

4 weeks.

Countless squats.

Questionable playlist choices.

And one glorious new Alpha legend: 

“The King is dead! Long live the King”

Well done Karl, you are our new Alpha King. 

Runners up - No one cares 

Let’s get one thing clear — this wasn’t just a fitness challenge. It was a mental challenge. The kind that has you questioning your choices mid-workout and then fist-bumping a fellow alpha after.

You were tested. You were tired. You were tempted to sack it off.

But you didn’t.

You showed up — again and again, you kept hammering!

From the dreaded Day 1 bleep test, the commitment was UNREAL.

PBs everywhere. Confidence up. Friendships forged in the fire of Burpees and Prowler laps.

Age? Irrelevant. Background? Doesn’t matter. Alpha 2025 was about best efforts. And this crew had it in spades.

Now the Pink Pants are tucked away. The Alpha trophy has a new mantelpiece to live on. And the trainers are off to re-caffeinate and scheme for next year.

So… will you be back? Will you bring a mate? Will you bring your all? Will you be the one holding the trophy next time? Bring on 2026!

John
