Week 24

Weightlifting at USC

The course consists 9 classes of 1 hour: a course for beginners.
You will learn all basic techniques and derivatives of Olympic weightlifting.
You will learn many extra exercises that can be useful in sport specific or personal training programs.
Please note: you should be able to lift a barbell (at least 10 kg) above your head.
Every course will end with a weightlifting ‘intro’ competition night.

 

USC instructor

Roos Rentier
My weightlifting career started right here at USC in the beginners course. From the first moment, it felt like a sport that would be both challenging and fun. Now, I teach the weighlifting course and also work at the front desk at USC Universum. As a teacher, I hope to make the sport even more popular at USC and create a community of weighlifters.

Advanced weightlifter or finished the course?

If you already have some experience with weightlifting, you can work out individually at our weighlifting platform at Universum and ASC.
