NEW IRON CORPSE & BARBELL CULT MERCH

Recently a print-on-demand service was integrated in the webstore and now a variety of new merch is available for order at a reasonable price. If you have any wishes, just let us know.

Items ship directly from the third party manufacturer and we are currently favoring manufacturers in the EU, but in case you order say from the US, the product may be manufactured and shipped from the US for cheaper shipping (when an identical item is available).

AVAILABLE NOW: NEW BARBELL CULT SHIRTS

Four new BARBELL CULT shirt variations are now available.

The iconic UNDEADLIFT shirts are now in print on nocturnal navy t-shirts.

IRNCRPS shirts now reprinted on a sturdy cuffed longsleeve, picture the the left. Extremely good for low bar squatting with the shirt and print really grabbing the barbell knurling.

Last but not least, the new design VARSITY 13 available in military green and stealth black-on-black versions.

All shirts available in sizes M through 2XL.

VARSITY 13

The fourth incarnation of BARBELL CULT is a homage to the long history of varsity graphics in lifting apparel and hardcore bandshirts. It’s bold and its beautiful. The shirt will be available in military green and a stealth black-on-black version in sizes M through 2XL.

The production line at our trusted printer is long, so unfortunately no confirmed release date, yet.

NEW BARBELL CULT DESIGNS – DELAYED

Building up the webstore from scratch has been such an overwhelming task that finishing designs and producing the new planned shirts as well as restocking the UNDEADLIFT shirts has been sadly delayed. Things are in the pipeline so hang in there!

Also currently writing up a “TRAINING PRIMER” on training ideology, programming, methods etc. Worthwhile read once finished. Also perhaps some sample programs..

INTRODUCTION

Heavy lifting from the underground, for the undergound. Gym culture does not need to be dictated by a faceless fitnessindustry. Just like with music, we can take it into our own hands and create the type of culture we want.

Gnarly corpses, oozing necrotic fluids and miasmatic fumes are smothered on the bandshirts we like to use in everyday life, not just in the gigs but also when shopping for groceries and taking your kids to daycare. There is no reason why gym excercise should be any different. But you might not want to ruin your precious vintage Carcass shirt working out now would you?

Right from the start the idea for Iron Corpse was to produce also deathmetal / grindcore / hardcore / underground themed shirts and apparel for lifting as well as create a similar culture for physical regimens of strength sports. That may just be one of the reasons for the word Iron in the label name.. On the left column shown is “UNDEADLIFT”, the first and iconic Barbell Cult shirt design with a rotten zombie corpse deadlifting. The very essence of Barbell Cult.

While still a work in progress, big plans for a series of articles on lifting ideology, programming, technique, mindset etc have been laid out. Be on the lookout for the articles.
