The Challenge
Following a significant expansion of the workout space at Team Rees gyms, there was a need to engage, excite and educate the team in foundational strength and conditioning practices.
The Solution
Excelsior supported Team Rees by delivering a two day lifting workshop, which focused on the fundamentals of executing and teaching sound lifting technique.
The Result
The entire team spent dedicated time learning, practicing and teaching the core barbell lifts – squat, deadlift and the clean (including several variations). Over a two day period the learners were exposed to and explored key teaching techniques, including verbal and physical cues, enabling them to immediately begin working with exercisers at the establishment.
“It was wonderful to work with Andy, Chris and Keith when organising and delivering this two day workshop. The days significantly increased our teams knowledge and confidence in both completing the lifts themselves and teaching others. We now have a team that is more engaged in the strength and conditioning side of our business and look forward to learning more from the Excelsior team again in the future.”
