Research on the Training Methods of Olympia Lifting
Abstract
To incorporate Olympia Lifting and its derivatives into training for improved sports performance, there is an evident scientific basis from both practical and scientific perspectives. As sports performance professionals gain more knowledge in the planning and design process, it becomes necessary to understand more about Olympia Lifting to provide the most effective exercise recommendations. Therefore, this paper focuses on the training method of Olympia Lifting. After reviewing literature, it can be concluded that Olympia Lifting and its derivative exercises are not only for specific sports, but can also be used as an effective complement to other components of comprehensive training.
