Just here to help you build better habits, get strong, and feel more confident in weightlifting. I've been Olympic lifting for 8+ years. I'm not the elite of the elite, but I've picked up some things along the way. And I just want to pass that along to people who are new to Olympic weightlifting. NASM-CPT certified. Active-duty Army.
