PSA: Keep your platform clean

5/21/2018

1 Comment

 
With the growing popularity of the Sport of Weightlifting, there are more people new to the sport. One thing to keep yourself and others safe is to keep your platform clean. What do I mean by this?

  1. Put things away where they belong: plates, barbells, collars, and other exercise equipment should be put away when they are not in use.
  2. Your “platform” should be free of anything other than your two feet and the weights you’re about to lift. The bar can and will bounce on things not intended to be on the platform.
  3. Lookout for each other: Weightlifting gyms are usually family/team oriented. Keep each other safe by making sure your partner’s platform is free from debris.
 
It is an exciting time for the Sport of Olympic Weightlifting! Walk into any Weightlifting gym as a beginner or a full-time Instagram competitor; someone will always be there to help you in the right direction. Lift on! Gravity never takes a rest day. Until next time, on the pursuit for 6 for 6.

If you want weightlifting to work on you, you must follow all these rules in order for you to suceed. It is totally different and strange sport that might be quite risky. But if you will do it the right way, and will be able to follow all the given rules, there's indeed a higher chance of you achieving spmething good in this field. You really have to work hard for that, as what I believe in!
