Course Details

Barbell cycling refers to multiple reps of Olympic Weightlifting movements (snatches, cleans, jerks) and their variants, but other movements such as deadlifts and thrusters can also be included. Our approach to barbell cycling is simple. It is based on the fundamentals of stance, grip, and positions. Combined with athlete and coaching experience that has produced consistent results for athletes in CrossFit affiliates for over a decade and repeated success at the highest levels of the CrossFit Games, this course is truly unique. Our goal for this course is to teach athletes how to perform multiple reps of barbell movements safely, efficiently, and effectively. We use barbell cycling for three primary purposes: to improve technique, strength, and conditioning. There is nothing else quite like it!
