With the folks that signed up last week, Saturday and Sundays Oly seminars are on, which is awesome! If you haven't signed up but still want to, you'll be able to throughout this week. Here's some info on the Bronze Seminar, which will be on Saturday:
More than just an Olympic weightlifting seminar company, Strength Specific Seminars is a brand. Born out of a backyard idea, Billy Bybee put down on paper (a fraction of) his ideas about the Olympic weightlifting movements, and sought an avenue to drive in which to drive them to as many CrossFitters as possible. For that he turned to his friend and co-founder Breyen Canfield. Within weeks, they had reached over a hundred CrossFitters from Wisconsin to California, with almost a 100% PR rate.
It wasn’t long to before word spread through the CrossFit world that Strength Specific Seminars was the best place to go to learn the snatch and clean and jerk. And since its inception in November of 2011, SSS has worked with everyone from competitive weightlifters to CrossFit Games champions, and Olympians to brand new CrossFitters who had never even touched a barbell for attending a seminar.
- A full day of instruction breaking down and simplifying the complex theory of snatch and clean and jerk
