Bang Fitness is pleased to host an Olympic lifting seminar on Sunday, November 1st, 2009.
Olympic lifting is a synthesis of raw power and pure technique. It is a tremendous tool for athletes and a rewarding skill for anyone looking to improve strength, explosiveness, coordination or general athleticism.
This seminar is focused on those new to Olympic lifting. Having an athletic background will be a helpful asset, but is not necessary by any means.
The seminar will be led by John Gray (Msc; CSCS). John is a Ph.D. Candidate in Spine Biomechanics at the University of Waterloo, working with internationally-renowned Spine Biomechanist, Dr. Stuart McGill, Ph.D. He is a certified kinesiologist, president of the Ontario Weightlifting Association and works with elite adult and junior athletes through the Toronto Lawn Tennis Club and the University of Toronto’s Varsity Women’s Volleyball Team. In 2003, he was named an Educational Influential in Kinesiology by the Institute for Work and Health. In addition, he is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) with the National Strength and Conditioning Association and a NCCP Master Learning Facilitator and Certified Coach in Weightlifting
