Hi guys, any recommendations on where i can learn Olympic lifting in Perth ? I am SOR in Canning Vale
I've found a few Crossfit gyms which do some olympic lifting but for the money you pay, they only have a couple of pure olympic lifting classes per week. At this point in time, i don't want to do the rest of the Crossfit stuff, just olympic lifting
I think WA headquarters is still at the speed dome. I may be wrong. Some of those lifters used to train at Midland PCYC.
Be prepared to be humbled. I went in to squat one day powerlifting style and Caroline Pileggi was there doing full Olympic squats for reps with 180kg like it was a broomstick, no belt.
if you'd actually had any contact with some of the crossfit affiliates in Perth you'd realise how stupid your statement is.
Some of the Crossfit affliates are very well run, and actually care about strength sports in WA. Crossfit armed in Port Kennedy is a great example with Olympic lifting, Strongman, and IPF powerlifting.
For O lift coaching I'd talk to Tom at PTC Gold Coast, there is no dedicated local oly gym unless you make the trip to brissie. Tom told me he started out O lifting before switching to PL so should know his shit.
If your just looking for somewhere to train then Freakos gym in Southport or PTC in Nerang depending on what you wanna do and where you live. GC Barbell is now the local PA club and PTC is affiliated with GPC if you got aspirations to compete in PL. If your just looking to train I'd go to whichever is closer to home, athough Barberll has all the strongman gear which can be super fun.
Commercial gyms on the Goldy are fucked, I never thought it was possible to get so many wankers in one place.

Crossfit armed is relatively new so perhaps/hopefully they're doing things differently. Ive trained at southern crossfit and the cell crossfit which were regarded as the better ones in perth, so i stand by my statement.

True! Ive been in contact with Josh there (I think thats him) and they are serious about it all. He was going to do one of our novice comps... but he's IPF.
