WELCOME TO WEIGHTS & CAKES
SUNDERLAND

Weights & Cakes Sunderland... On a journey to make training, exercising and sport more accessible to everyone regardless of race, gender, ability or experience.
We are a community interest company (CIC) who's objective is to offer a different way of training to those in the community who may not feel comfortable training in a mainstream gym environment.
Our core mission is to increase social inclusion, improve fitness and general well-being as well as improving self confidence amongst those we engage with. We aim to inspire individuals to achieve their full potential to enable them to live a more connected and healthier lifestyle in our safe and inclusive space based in Sunderland, Tyne and Wear.

SASS
SASS stands for Strong Ass Strength Squad and is a successful strongman inspired training session aimed at all levels of fitness. It's fully inclusive, it doesn't matter whether you've never picked up a weight before. There is something for everyone.
We are currently Sunderland's only affiliated Olympic Weightlifting club.
What even is Olympic weightlifting?
Can anyone do it?
Is it safe for children?
Qualified, experienced and relatable personal training coaches
We offer personal training services to those who are looking to learn how to use weights in a safe way. We also coach experienced lifters, assisting them in meeting their goals.


We're hosting a dead lift fundraiser during July 2022 to raise money fo our Kids Barbell Club...
During July’s classes, we’re attempting to dead lift the combined weight of a ship built in Sunderland called the ‘City of Adelaide’ which weighed 791,000kg (791 tonnes).
Our kids classes will attempt to cycle 16,890km during July’s classes, which is the distance from Sunderland to Adelaide. Their dead lifts will also be added to our target.
Fundraising Day: Saturday 23rd July 2022
