This picture was taken the moment Emma got given a good lift, to get a 7kg total pb and qualify for her first British championship (in only her second competition ever)
While weightlifting is individual in the sense of the athlete has to be the one to make the lifts, it’s a team effort. From programming, feedback, adaptation in training to backroom control.
On comp day, a coach is there so all you have to do is lift. You don’t have to worry about what’s on the bar, when to lift it, how long until you go out to the platform. For some people, you don’t even need to worry about when to eat or drink.
This makes the sport feel more like you’re part of something, rather than an individual just simply lifting weights
If you want to compete, and you don’t want to worry about what to do, when to do it or even how to do it, drop me a message to discuss coaching options. Emma works with me online and it’s been a huge game changer to her weightlifting
If you’re too shy to message me, I have an interest form in my bio for you to fill out and I’ll message you
