Olympia Weightlifting Center

For me, this was the perfect alternative to CrossFit. Istvan is hands down the best instructor/coach you could ask for and a genuinely nice guy. Olympic lifting is highly technical and potentially dangerous if you do it incorrectly without proper form. In the CrossFit gyms Ive been to, form is an after thought and youre constantly being pushed to lift heavier weights, faster and for more reps at the expense of safety. Here, Istvan will make sure youre doing the movements properly before allowing you to go heavier. You might feel like you can go heavier, but its so much better to progress intelligently and minimize the risk of injury by having proper form and and ensuring you have the requisite strength before increasing the weights. The atmosphere is great. The people who train here are great. Ive trained with Istvan both privately and in the classes. Private is great if you can afford it. If not, the morning classes are a great way to go and you still get plenty of individual attention. To his credit, Istvan could have easily expanded his business by farming out the instruction to capable lieutenants, but he has not. So, by coming here you get the opportunity to be trained by an Olympic medalist. Its been a privilege to train with him.

This gym is amazing.You can basically learn everything about real weight lifting.And Istvan coach; he has enthusiasm and passion to help people do lifting.Just join and do real workout!
