This new item of kit will allow members to perform the Olympic lifts and their derivatives in a safe environment and reap the benefits this unique style of training offers. These exercises are extremely powerful tools and can be used and adapted to target any component of fitness from flexibility to power.
Gary Cox, BS7 Gym Manager said “We are extremely pleased to have the platform in-place and be able to offer Olympic lifting to our members. This is a truly fantastic way to train and it’s pleasing to see so many members now want to include the Olympic lifts in their training.
"We are, quite rightly, seeing a shift away from outdated isolation style training and moving towards a much compound and functional style, which provides so many more benefits and less drawbacks.”
“No one training method truly does everything a body could need, but this is as close as it comes.”
If you have not used weightlifting techniques before or have any questions about the lifts or their execution, our instructors will be happy to help.
