Olympic lifts are based on the movements that are done by Olympic weightlifting participants. It is possible to include Olympic-style weightlifting in their workout routines without actually competing. Doing Olympic lifts with proper form can help people gain muscle mass and build strength and power.
Olympic lifts are very versatile, causing a range of positive changes in a person’s body depending on how you programme them into your clients’ workouts. Olympic lifts can be utilised in order to improve strength, speed, and power as well as enhance high-intensity exercise endurance, recover more quickly, and handle higher amounts of training. With greater work capacity, your clients will be able to do more exercise each session and reach their health and fitness goals faster.
