THE HEAVY BREATHING STANDARD IV

Tested & Non-Tested | August 24, 2025 | Vista, CA

The Heavy Breathing Standard is our biggest fundraiser. EVERY dollar goes back into the mission.

We’re in the schools, helping students earn credits, build confidence, and find purpose.

We’re working with adults coming out of recovery, reintegration, and hard times—using strength to rebuild what life tried to break.

This year, less is more. One meet. One chance. 🚨 This will be the ONLY Heavy Breathing event until 2026. 🚨

If you’ve been to one of our meets, you already know what time it is.

The energy is unmatched.

The community speaks for itself.

💰 AND THERE WILL BE CASH PAYOUTS.

🚨 LIMITED TO 50 LIFTERS – We will create a waitlist and open a second day if demand is high.
