Welcome to The Weightlifting Hall! Before you dive into the content, take a moment to read this, because what’s inside this Hall isn’t meant to be consumed casually. It’s meant to be trained intentionally. I built this community because I know how confusing Olympic weightlifting can feel at the beginning and how frustrating it can remain even after years of practice. I’ve been under the bar as an athlete, coached hundreds of athletes across various sports, and seen the same issues repeat themselves over and over: rushing weight, skipping fundamentals, and chasing quick fixes instead of building skill. This Hall exists to solve those exact issues. Inside this community, you’ll find lessons and discussions I wish I had earlier in my own training with clear explanations of the lifts, common mistakes that hold lifters back, and practical ways to improve consistency over time. ➡️ If you’re new here, begin with the Welcome to Weightlifting course. That’s where we lay the groundwork for: - What the lifts are - How they’re meant to be trained - What actually matters early on Don’t rush ahead and revisit these concepts often. Even the best lifters never outgrow the basics. ➡️ How to use The Hall: - Ask thoughtful questions - Share training insights and progress - Learn from others doing the same work - Focus on consistency over intensity ❌ This is not a place to max out for attention or chase quick results. It’s a place to slow down, train with intent, and improve alongside others who respect the process. This is also not the place to be a jerk to new lifters in the space. These movements require patience and discipline to progress in; the last thing we want is to kill someone's training progress by shooting them down. Be positive and encouraging toward all community members so we can build off of one another's momentum! If you’re willing to show up, repeat the work, stay patient, and lean into this community, you’ll get a lot out of this space. 📣 Before you get started, take a moment to introduce yourself to The Hall.

NEW COURSE: FORM BREAKDOWNS
Exciting news yall! I just published the start of a new course: Form Breakdowns. This will basically be a compilation of various videos where I am breaking down the technical components of our lifts while showing the form of an athlete. There will also be instances where I share specific exercise variations to address specific form breakdowns. This should help y’all take a step forward with your lifting to start being able to self-diagnose what your technique flaws are and gain some ideas as to how you can work on them. Your feedback is always appreciated! It is very early into launching this course so there isn’t a ton of content yet, but I will be adding to this over the coming weeks. Enjoy, and happy lifting
NEW COURSE: FORM BREAKDOWNS
8 months in, new snatch PR. Also built the plate calculator I wish existed
8 months into olympic lifting and the thing that still trips me up is plate math. Mid-session, trying to work out what 85% of my clean & jerk is and then which plates actually get me there, with the rest clock running. I tried the apps that exist for this. Most either bury the calculator inside a full workout logger, or handle kilos badly, or assume you've got plates you don't have. So I built the one I wanted. Plate calculator and PR tracker, nothing else — LoadPR: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/loadpr-1rm-plate-calculator/id6768525538 What I actually want is a reality check from people further along than me, because 18 months isn't long and there are habits I probably haven't formed yet: — Do you run percentages off a true 1RM or a training max? — Should it know your gym's actual plate inventory, or is that overkill? — Does anyone want warmup sets generated, or do you just know your ramp by feel? Tear it apart, that's the point.

Whattt uppp!
Just joined guys, excited to get to know y'all! 💪
What are YOU training for?
As weightlifters, we always have the overarching goal of being able to increase the weight on the bar. But, in order to do that, we obviously need to have some sort of strategy or main area of focus for our training block to move the needle in the right direction. My question for you, what are you currently training for, and how will that translate into more kg’s on the bar? Example: I’m currently trying to increase my squat and overhead strength to raise my overarching strength threshold so I can lift bigger loads 💪🏻
