THESE CLASSES ARE APPROPRIATE FOR MEMBERS AT ALL LEVELS OF FITNESS
Beginners will focus on exercises that apply to both Power and Olympic weightlifting: the Back Squat, the Front Squat, the Overhead Squat, the Deadlift, the Power Clean, the Shoulder Press, and the Bench Press. While there are certain technique requirements for these lifts, there is no single method that applies to every athlete. During our strength classes, the coaches will guide participants through technique intensive sessions in order to correct errors in form and determine the most suitable lifting technique for each athlete’s abilities, body proportions, and strength level. Once the participant’s technique has been perfected, the athletes will begin a strength program.
After the strength workout, the athletes will finish with a short, explosive metabolic conditioning workout. We recommend that trainees also participate in atleast two CrossFit class strength workouts per week to see the best results.
A participant can expect the following schedule per session:
- Warm-Up
- Stretch
- Skill Transfer of Movements
- Corrective Movement
- Video Analysis
- Hands On Feedback from the Coach
- Strength Program and Progressions
- W.O.D.
- Cool Down
- Stretch
Olympic Weightlifting is a safe and time efficient way to develop multiple athletic capacities within:
1. cardiovascular/respiratory endurance
2. stamina
3. strength
4. flexibility
5. power
6. speed
7. agility
8. balance
9. coordination
10. accuracy
Olympic Weightlifting consists of a “ground based” series of movements designed to create strength and power.
This will carry over into any sport you’re currently participating in, whether it be football, soccer, running, baseball, tennis, CrossFit, etc. Full body development of our athletes is also a benefit of these lifts, including:
- Developing Kinesthetic awareness.
- Increasing muscle fiber diameter.
- Increasing neural adaptations.
- Improving intra-muscular coordination.
- Improving inter-muscular coordination.
- Increased “Core” strength, stability, and control.
