Kids and weightlifting

June 6, 2019/by James Marshall

Weight lifting is quite simple. You pick something up and put it above your head. Every granny who unloads her shopping and puts her jar of Marmite in the larder does it. Children helping granny will do it too. Why then do some people get caught up in making weight lifting so complicated? I prefer to keep things simple. In this article I shall endeavor to share what we do at Excelsior Athletic Development Club when teaching children weight lifting.
