Washington Olympic Weightlifting Club

Kaye working on her Split Jerk.
Notice the first clip with the bar she is jumping forward.
We took away the bar to rehearse and build confidence in dropping into the split position.
... Reintroduced the bar which looked quicker and started to drop under bar.
Great work Kaye 👍🏻

PAUSED FRONT SQUAT
Helen Louise has come on leaps and bounds since she first started lifting with us.
She couldn't bodyweight squat, she therefore couldn't load the front squat with any weight and achieve depth
... Her next piece of work is to build some paused front squats into her programming so we can see further progress.
We love people who come prepared to work their weaknesses 👌

Do you want to improve your mobility?
How often do you stretch? What other forms of equipment do yoù use?
Will be happy to go over more mobility work after the sessions. This will make it easier to get your body in better positions to improve your lifts.

GUTTED
We love this sport but unfortunately it's out of the anyone in the sports control.
We will continue to try and work with athletes who share the same passion.
