Oly 4 Kids: Part 2 - Own the Bar, Waller Dani

The Oly 4 Kids program was created in 2016 with the view to make the sport of Olympic Weightlifting appropriate and accessible for kids. The old myths that weightlifting was bad for kids, that it stunts your growth and that children are not anatomically ready for weighted exercises really needed to be cleared up. It is unrealistic to think that kids will not pick up objects that are heavy, just in play. So doesnt it make sense that we nurture them, and teach them good technique to be physically well? But make it fun Make it relative And make it rewarding. This is where the Training Journal comes into play. This was the second book I published. It has the Oly 4 Kids program in it but written instead for the kids that learn the program as the audience. In addition, it has a summary page with dot points to learn and pass, to gain a sticker for each weekly level. This has proven to be the key tool that makes the program such a success. The kids take ownership of the technique rules to learn, and they want to achieve them. Because what kid doesnt love stickers

This book, the second in the program, is full of instructions, experience and passion. It tells you how to use the 10-step program once it has been taught. How to convert the fundamental skills that have been learnt to then go to the next level and train. The book contains example workout exercises and ideas on what needs to be taught when, and how. I hope you enjoy it
