Workshop: Weightlifting as the basis of many sports

In recent years, the barbell has disappeared from many fitness studios. Instead of functional whole-body movements, machines and isolated exercises dominate. Yet classic weightlifting is one of the most effective methods of building real, everyday strength.

In this workshop, Matthias Steiner shows how barbell training can benefit not only competitive athletes, but also fitness beginners, athletes from other disciplines and coaches. Because:

• Weightlifting trains the whole body - efficiently, functionally and sustainably.
• The technique trains mobility, coordination and body awareness.
• The exercises are directly transferable to other sports such as athletics, soccer, CrossFit or martial arts.
