Greg Everett’s book Olympic Weightlifting: A Complete Guide for Athletes & Coaches has been called “the best book available on Olympic weightlifting” and “a must read for all athletes and coaches involved in the movements.”
Now the companion DVD is available to demonstrate the teaching and learning progressions for the snatch, clean and jerk that are presented in the book.
Viewers are guided through a complete progression for the Olympic lifts, starting from foundational elements such as the squat and breath control and finishing with the complete competition lifts. Included is actual training footage of Catalyst Athletics weightlifters.

Good preview showing a clear synopsis of the principal phases of the lifts. As shown here, form is everything. I particularly appreciate the use of female demonstrators, since they emphasize that male bulk and strength are not the primary requirement to perform these lifts. While I am too old (65) to compete, I am working on the snatch and clean and jerk because of their loading on all muscle groups. Unfortunately, there are no lifting coaches in my area, so I am learning on my own, which is definitely the hard way. The book and DVD are in my future, as soon as I get my next Social Security check.

Cody thanks again for your mtbliioy magic on Friday . I'm no longer moving around like Mr. Burns from The Simpsons. My back is still tender at the location of the injury, but my all-around mtbliioy and movement improved dramatically.
