On April 21st, 2024, I held a second one-day weightlifting seminar at Eastern Bloc Strength Gym in Toronto. This seminar featured a different group of athletes than the April 14th session, which allowed for personalized coaching and a fresh training atmosphere.
Eastern Bloc Strength Gym once again provided an excellent environment for lifting, with high-quality platforms, barbells, racks, and a supportive community. This made it easy for every athlete to focus fully on technique and improvement.
We began the seminar with mobility and warm-up structure, followed by a detailed breakdown of the snatch.
Athletes practiced:
With individual corrections, lifters improved quickly, especially in bar contact and speed under the bar.
The second part of the weightlifting seminar was dedicated to the clean & jerk.
We worked on:
Each athlete was coached based on their unique strengths and weaknesses.
As with all seminars, we included strength work inspired by Romanian national team training.
We focused on:
Athletes learned how to structure their weekly training and how Romanian lifters build strength over time.
The seminar ended with a Q&A session covering technique, programming, warm-ups, and recovery. The group at Eastern Bloc Strength was very engaged, making the session productive and informative.
The April 21st Toronto seminar was an excellent day of progress, technical refinement, and strong lifting.
