What you’ll be certified in.

Clients see the snatch and the clean and jerk and want in. The trainers who can coach them safely become the go-to coach in the gym for power, speed and athletic strength.

Our course gets you certified to coach Olympic lifting, so you can add the lifts to your sessions and build them into your clients’ programmes.

You’ll earn a certificate in Olympic Lifting. It covers the fundamentals of Olympic lifting, teaching and demonstrating Olympic lifts and their derivatives, structuring and progressing training programmes, and adapting drills to suit each client’s ability.

Your certificate is issued by TRAINFITNESS.

CIMSPA recognises this course as continuing professional development. CIMSPA is the chartered professional body for UK sport and physical activity, and they’ve awarded us their highest provider rating: ‘Enhancing’.

You’ll need to hold a Level 3 personal training qualification. The practical elements are hands-on.

You’ll complete your practical during your Training & Assessment Day and upload your portfolio.

“I have been on two courses with Trainfitness and both times these courses have been absolutely amazing. They really do go into depth with different techniques and coaching points. The Olympic lifting course has been absolutely fantastic and has really inspired me to keep going with strong lifts. I can’t wait to get back and teach my clients all the different movements I have learnt today!! Thank you”
