Teaching Weightlifting To All
We work to teach the sport of Weightlifting in two ways:
1 – Through online outreach via our website and other publications.
2 – Through hands on training at our affiliate WeightliftingWorkshop.com
Online Outreach
Our primary online outreach to those who want to learn about weightlifting is through media of various kinds – our Website, the Weightlifting Encyclopedia, Blogs, Videos and Podcasts. We have published the entire content of Artie Drechsler’s Weightlifting Encyclopedia (a 550 page and 400,000 word book). In addition, there will be much new material reflective of what has changed in the sport and what has been learned, since those materials were published, so entirely new approaches to training for Weightlifting will be presented, here, or on our cooperating sponsor’s website, WeightliftingWorkshop.
