Frequently asked questions
I am not that strong — is weightlifting for me?
Strength is only one part of weightlifting, and strength alone will not get you there. It is just as much about flexibility and mobility, so that you can reach every position with the right form. Explosiveness and speed matter too.
A competition has 'only' two lifts. Are those the only exercises you train?
No, a training session covers many different exercises. All of them relate to the snatch and the clean & jerk — we zoom in on the catch of the snatch, or the pull of the clean, for example. During each session we explain how an exercise works and what it is for.
What equipment do you use?
Almost everything we use is made by Eleiko. We are convinced they build the best equipment for weightlifting.
