Training the the Olympic lifts offer benefits including the development of explosiveness, body awareness, flexibility, coordination, balance, reactive strength and maximum strength. While kettlebells are a great tool using a barbell for the Olympic lifts requires different neuromuscular patterns which further enhance the athletes athleticism. The seminar will focused on the use of the barbell.
Olympic lifts aren't supposed to be done for high reps. You use lighter weights to groove the movement - practice - and increase the amount of weight you can use. Oly work is typically done for many sets with low repetitions (2-5) and sufficient rest between sets. No need to use Olympic lifts for high rep metabolic work.
