Having started my life in the iron game as an Olympic lifter, I've always been influenced by the training done by the most explosive athletes in the world. The Olympic lifts have a rhythm to them like no other. After a big fast pull, the weight rockets up high overhead before slamming back down to the ground. It's physical poetry in motion. Even as a teenager and just learning about lifting, I knew that the Olympic lifts were for me. I'm interested. Sounds like something my type II muscle fibers can get down with.

Slam it to the ground at the end? Where do I sign up? So at the ripe old age of 15 and just two weeks into my training, I sat down and planned it all out. Soon, through the simplicity of the overload principle, I would have the world beat. By only adding 1 kilogram to each lift (the snatch and the clean and jerk) every week, I would have the world record in the snatch in only 2 years and the world record in the clean and jerk in 2.5 years. Well, you might've noticed that my bio fails to list world records in either the snatch or the clean and jerk.

The simple overload principle fails to deliver indefinitely as gains don't always come on a weekly basis. Gains do come, however, with improvement in your movements and improvements in strength. Recently, I decided to return to the competitive platform for the first time in over 10 years.

So I put together the following program and have used it on myself and five other lifters that were all training for their very first meets. Lg Updates Firmware. We all PR'd – me at a bodyweight that was 30 pounds lighter than the last time I lifted competitively. This program is simple, to the point, and ready to use. Getting Off On The Right Foot Before you start, I strongly encourage you to hire a good lifting coach to evaluate your movements. You don't want to be wasting energy off the floor or in the second pull – a good coach can quickly identify this and help correct it.

That said, the Olympic lifts aren't difficult to learn – I can teach a group of athletes how to Olympic lift in just a couple sessions. What I'm talking about is becoming good at the Olympic lifts, as opposed to that meathead in the gym who reverse curls the weight to his chest and then muscles it overhead. Your typical reverse curler may have the muscle mass and power to Olympic lift, but it takes more than 3 sets of 3 once a week to be legitimately good at the lifts. The Olympic lifts respond to efficient patterns just as well as they respond to big ass traps and huge quads. The ideology at work here mirrors that of legendary Soviet weighlifting coach AS Medvedev. In his book, A Program of Multi-Year Training in Weightlifting, Medvedev outlines every lift used over the course of six years to take a weightlifter from novice to elite level.

Much of the first two years is done with imitation lifts, no more than 50% of bodyweight, with technical efficiency as the only goal. I'm not going to make you spend two years or even 20 weeks working with a bar, but this program is based on the idea of movement efficiency and developing technical patterns to improve at the lifts. The Program The program is as simple as it gets, 4 lifts per day with 1 complex before training. The program only has the lifts you need to be doing to get better at the Olympic lifts. All of my athletes still do core work and corrective work, and I'm certain you'll need it, too.
