This workshop is for anyone wanting to gain more confidence with a barbell. Join registered Kinesiologist and strength coach Lianne Burrell as she leads the group through the two-hour workshop designed for beginner to novice lifters. Expect a supportive environment focusing on the essential barbell lifts done in many of our Wild Life Gym classes.
You will learn proper bracing and joint warm-up techniques, rack setup, squat patterns, deadlift patterns, and gain familiarity with the landmine attachment. Step up to the barbell with more skill, knowledge and confidence. The darker winter months are a perfect time to work on strength training so you can bust out your strength gains on the trails come spring and summer. Expect lots of individual instruction and time for questions.
