Olympic Weightlifting for Sports [Everett, Greg] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Olympic Weightlifting for Sports

Review: But it is a powerful and useful one at that - Yes, the book may be called a pamphlet. But it is a powerful and useful one at that, it is easily understandable and accessible, and makes the point that most athletes from non-weightlifting sports can benefit much from taking the olympic lifts into their exercise plans. Furthermore, the book has enough detail to stand alone as an instruction guide to athletes and coaches with limited time to spend on the olympic lifts. This is not a book for weightlifters - it is not meant to be - it is a book for athletes and coaches in other sports. It's a two-hour read, which gives you the rationale for including the lifts, instructions on how to do the lifts, a plan for technical progression between the different lift varieties, and two sample programmes. I have never opened a book that let me learn so much in just two hours. For that, it fully deserves its 5 stars. And it doesn't hurt that desertcart.com beat their delivery estimate with 28 days!
Review: Great book for those who aren't competitive weightlifters - I have purchased both editions of Olympic Weightlifting: A Complete Guide for Athletes & Coaches. They are wonderful for learning and coaching the lifts. They have everything you need to coach the lifts. What I liked about this book is that it assumes that not everyone who wants to do the lifts wants to be a competitive lifter. Many people just need to learn how to properly get the bar from the ground to the shoulders or overhead in the most efficient manner so they can translate it to their sport. I have plenty of athletes who come into my gym without any lifting experience. I can now use this guide for progressions, as well as encourage them to lift properly without putting themselves in less than ideal positions for the sake of completing the lift. Greg also points out the importance of the lifts, safety involved with them, as well as the technical difference for athletic training vs competitive weightlifting. As with his other books, Greg has great instruction, pictures, and detail that other books do not contain. I recommend this book to any athlete that wants to include the lifts into their program but unsure of how to go about introducing them. I also suggest that every coach should get this book so they can understand so much more about the lifts.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Resource for Olympic Lifts
*by E***R on August 29, 2012*

Greg Everetts book on weightlifting for sports is well done. The writing is clear and concise. He breaks the lift down into easily managed portions and creates a reliable template to build on. The photography in this book is excellent. The pictures illustrating the push down under the bar are well done and demonstrate a difficult concept very well. With the resurgence of popularity of Olympic style weightlifting, this book is an excellent resource. It is small enough to fit in your gym bag and easy to read . I only wish I could just hand one to every person I see in the gym flailing around with a bar, thinking they are "Oly' Liftin'"
