Olympic Weightlifting Workshop
(OLY-WOD)

Course Description
This course is a practical workshop that focuses on the Olympic lifts and their variations. Athletes will learn proper progressions of all the olympic lifts and most importantly how to troubleshoot and correct technique flaws. Athletes who attend this course will improve their Olympic lifting technique. Novice, intermediate and advanced lifters can expect to set new PR’s in their Snatch and Clean & Jerk lifts.

All lifting will be done with Olympic bars and bumper plates. Three students will be assigned to each bar. A coach, a lifter and an observer. Every student will get a chance to participate in a max lift, coach others and be an observer. This approach ensures maximum knowledge transfer for all course registrants.

Components of the course also focus on providing Crossfit athletes with the tools that they need to maximize their performance at CrossFit competitions. 

All athletes attending this course must meet the minimum fitness standard of back squatting (top of thighs at least pararell to the ground) 1.25 x bodyweight x 3 reps.
