Hey everyone,
Don’t know if this is the community to ask, and if there any Olympic lifting enthusiast here.
Been going to the gym for the last 2 months, 6 times a week but I have been mostly doing machines (body building exercises). I have been fascinated with Olympic Lifting but is really hard to find workout plans online, for it.
My gym offers crossfit classes, but it only has 10 slots and are currently full…
Currently trying to do a Clean, but not strong enough to do it properly with the bar only. (Struggling with my shoulders).
Any ideas for workouts, to slowly build the core in order to be able to do the OLY lifts with the bar (in order to then train the technique).
Don’t know if it matters but 1.67cm and 58Kg.
You can start with doing the five basic lifts: deadlifts, back or front squats, barbell rows, bench press and overhead press.
They should be able to give you the foundation to begin doing cleans and jerks etc.
I have never done olympic lifting myself but a friend does them. He started with these in the beginning.
Thanks currently my workout includes deadlifts, back squats.
Will try to include them on my workout !
