6 Week Weightlifting Program
Richie Patterson Weightlifting
Weightlifting, Olympic Lifting6 week weightlifting program from Coach Richie Patterson
Designed for the athlete looking for a well structured and proven training block to take them (the athlete) towards testing or competition. This program is tried and tested with my Olympic athletes and has proven itself time and time again with +ve outcomes.
The program is aligned with the 6 week Russian Squat program (3 weeks foundation + 3 week intensity), with a testing week on week 6, and can be worked into an 8 week peak for competition.
The program has a number of technical videos - with focus and execution elements giving more insight into Richies coaching philosophy.
The outcome of the 6 week weightlifting program is to push an athlete to their potential and challenge themselves in a classical weightlifting program.
