I will be back at Coca Crossfit in North Royalton, Ohio on February 27 at 11am. This time I will be instructing an olympic weightlifting course. I am a certified USAW Sports Performance Coach since 2007, and have met and worked with various olympic coaches across the country.

Olympic lifts are utilized throughout crossfit programming and I personally feel that they are very instrumental in the development of the athlete body. Every athlete I work with is taught the olympic lifts and there derivatives.

At this course we will begin with and instruct:

  • Bergener Warm-up
  • Overhead Squat
  • Snatch
  • Clean
  • Push Jerk / Split Jerk
  • Combos

This workshop will again be offered for $75 per person. Start time is 11am.

Please contact me with any questions:

Here is the location address again:

Mark your calenders as Saturday, February 19, 2011 will be the first ever Novice only Grip Sport competition. Grip training and grip sport competitions are growing in popularity, but a newcomer to grip does not want his first competition to be against someone with Elite status.

This Novice only competition is geared to the gripster in their first year of grip competition. Veteran grip athletes will be on hand to help coach and instruct the new grip athletes throughout the day. Durniat Strength will be hosting an Open Grip Challenge later in the year.

Weight Classes will be in effect: Heavy Weight: >94kg (above 206.8 lbs.), Light Weight: <94kg (under 206.8 lbs.) and a Women’s Class.

Events will be:
1) Maximum Parallel Set Grippers


2) Maximum 2 Hands Pinch Deadlift– euro device


3) Maximum Double Overhand Axle Deadlift


4) Medley, a random selection of 25 objects to be deadlifted in 4 minutes time.


5) Wrist Roller from a tower


4 attempts will be allowed for the Grippers, 2 Hands Pinch and Axle Deadlift.

Prize packages will be awarded to the top 3 competitors of each class.
