Weightlifting Seminar

Derek Saffold • January 30, 2020
Two weightlifters: one overhead pressing, the other deadlifting with a barbell in a gym.

We are excited to announce that we will be hosting an Olympic Weightlifting seminar here at R3vive CrossFit Dudley on February 22nd, from 12pm to 2pm.

The event will be hosted by Derek Saffold and Patrick Li. Derek and Patrick have a combined 10 years of Olympic Weightlifting Coaching. Derek is a USAW L1 and Crossfit L1 Trainer. Patrick Li is a USAW L1, PT, and Personal trainer.

Whether you are new to weightlifting or have experience, this clinic designed to be useful for all levels! The clinic is designed to help each person become more knowledgeable and proficient in each of the Olympic lifts (Snatch and Clean & Jerk).

One hour will be dedicated for the Snatch, and one hour for the Clean & Jerk. We’ll review each lift in depth, from the basic fundamentals to cues that will help individuals. While each lifter is being instructed by one coach, the secondary coach will be assessing each athlete to help them better understand and flow of each lift. Each lesson will be followed by a practical session where each lifter will be able to practice what they have learned. Coaches will be providing feedback during the practice session.

Ready to get your lift on? Registration is now open at $50 per person.

What is the March of Dimes? The March of Dimes is a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the health of mothers and babies, with a focus on preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality. Learn more about the March of Dimes here. Why is it important to us? We are excited to host a workout in support of the March of Dimes and the South Shore Hospital NICU team. My sister-in-law, Amanda Dougherty, and my nephew, Owen Dougherty, received a lot of care during Owen's premature and traumatic birth. Amanda and her family will be walking on the SSH NICU/SCN team in the March for Babies walk on May 9th, and we would love to support her by donating to the cause and helping other families in need. When's the charity class? We would love for everyone to come join us, no matter your fitness level, in support of this great cause. The class will be hosted on Sunday, April 12th, at 11 am. T-shirts will also be available for purchase as a preorder up until March 27th.
