Stellar Strength Barbell

Weightlifting
Coach
Sean Ranney

4-week training cycle designed for Olympic lifters returning after time off who want to rebuild intelligently, not recklessly.

You’ll train 3 days per week with a clear focus on:

Squat strength development

Overhead mobility & stability

Snatch catch position refinement

Jerk drive mechanics under fatigue

Each session includes targeted warm-ups, mobility, lift primers, main lifts, and accessory work, all structured to help you move better, lift stronger, and stay injury-free. Whether you’re coming back from a break or need to reinforce your foundation, this cycle bridges the gap between where you are and where you’re capable of going.
