Olympic lifting at Hadeed
Olympic lifting builds speed, explosive power and mobility together. We teach it in stages — bar positions, then the pull, then the catch, then the full lift — and film your lifts on a phone to review them with you.
Every lifter gets a full platform during the session, with bumper plates that let you drop the bar safely.

Common questions
Before your first
Olympic lifting session.
Ready to start?
Choose the coach, day and time in under a minute, and we confirm your session within one working hour.
Is Olympic lifting dangerous?
It becomes safe with gradual progress and clean technique. We start with a wooden dowel or a light bar and only add load once you master the positions.
Do I need special shoes?
Lifting shoes with a firm heel help later, but you can start in any flat trainers.
What age can I start?
We take teenagers from 14 with a coach, and there is no upper age limit as long as the movement is comfortable.
