Ewfsm N1.Pdf The official journal of the European Weightlifting Federation - N° 1 / April-July 2015 SUMMARY Over the years a number of papers have been devoted to the weightlifter’s warm up for competition. Some of this information is more than 50 years old. However, in the interim there have been a number of changes to the technical rules of weightlifting competitions. 56 2 EDITORIAL by Antonio Urso 4 MYTH OF STRENGTH by Livio Toschi 10 SOLAR ENERGY AND MUSCLE STRENGTH by Menotti Calvani 22 KINEMATIC ANALYSIS OF THE SNATCH LIFT WITH ELITE FEMALE WEIGHTLIFTERS DURING THE 2010 WORLD WEIGHTLIFTING CHAMPIONSHIP by Hasan Akkus 36 THE EFFECTS OF TRAINING VOLUME AND COMPETITION ON THE SALIVARY CORTISOL CONCENTRATIONS OF OLYMPIC WEIGHTLIFTERS by Blair T.

In addition, «until the appearance of firearms, physical strength was the main resource of fighters, who relied on it for their survival» (Georges Lambert).

  • Origins of Canadian Olympic Weightlifting
    1 Page # June 30, 2011. ORIGINS OF CANADIAN OLYMPIC WEIGHTLIFTING INTRODUCTION The author does not pretend to have written everything about the history of Olympic weightlifting in Canada since Canadian Weightlifting has only one weightlifting magazine to refer to and it is from the Province of Québec “Coup d’oeil sur l’Haltérophilie”, it is understandable that a great number of the articles are about the Quebecers. The researcher is ready to make any modification to this document when it is supported by facts of historical value to Canadian Weightlifting. (Ce document est aussi disponible en langue française) The early history of this sport is not well documented, but weightlifting is known to be of ancient origin. According to legend, Egyptian and Chinese athletes demonstrated their strength by lifting heavy objects nearly 5,000 years ago. During the era of the ancient Olympic Games a Greek athlete of the 6th century BC, Milo of Crotona, gained fame for feats of strength, including the act of lifting an ox onto his shoulders and carrying it the full length of the stadium at Olympia, a distance of more than 200 meters. For centuries, men have been interested in strength, while also seeking athletic perfection. Early strength competitions, where Greek athletes lifted bulls or where Swiss mountaineers shouldered and tossed huge boulders, gave little satisfaction to those individuals who wished to demonstrate their athletic ability. During the centuries that followed, the sport continued to be practiced in many parts of the world. Weightlifting in the early 1900s saw the development of odd-shaped dumbbells and kettle bells which required a great deal of skill to lift, but were not designed to enable the body’s muscles to be used efficiently.

  • The Squat, Or How I Learned to Stop Leg-Pressing and Use My Ass by Mark Rippetoe
    Starting Strength The Squat, or How I Learned to Stop Leg-Pressing and Use My Ass by Mark Rippetoe I learned to squat a long time ago. It was 1977, and I had just been in a little altercation that convinced me that I might need to be in a little better shape than I was. I was an Early Adopter – I had played soccer in high school (Texas, 1973-74, nobody knew what the hell they were doing, had to buy the balls through the mail, football coaches thought we were girls, soccer coach didn’t know what he was doing, etc.), and had continued playing intramural in college. I was in decent “shape” in the sense that I wasn’t fat, but considering myself 30 years later, I can understand why I decided I need to train. I was a soccer player, for God’s sake. I was not very strong. And although my little brush with violence had left me mostly intact, I was unhappy with the outcome. I decided the same thing young men have been deciding since there have been young men: I was going to get stronger. A lack of strength had not been a major factor in the affair. The guy only hit me once – a sucker punch, really and actually – and I was not completely inexperienced in these matters. But I failed to whip his ass, and failures of this type usually demand a response. Being a relatively civilized individual, my response was not a drive-by shooting like the pussies of today seem prone to do.

Boorstin, a well known historian and author, successfully argues that the first true pioneer of systematic modern exploration was Prince Henry The Navigator of Portugal. In the early 1400s under the leadership of Prince Henry, Portugal began a systematic exploration of unknown lands. This was accomplished by repeatedly sending out explorers. Each one ven- turing farther than the one before, then returned to report their findings to the mapmakers. These mapmakers then gradually constructed more accurate maps and built a foundation that allowed the explorers to venture still farther. This was the first organized cooperation between mapmaker and explorer. This book could never have been written if not for the unreasonable efforts of early explorers and mapmakers in bodybuilding. This book is dedicated to these early pioneers. Vince Gironda Bill Pearl John Grimek Arnold Swarzeneggar (of course) And the current pioneers: Dr. Mauro Di Pasquale Angel Spassov Yuri Verishonski Ivan Ivanov Also: A special thanks to Joe Weider for his untiring efforts to increase the awareness of bodybuilding around the world.

  • Grippaldi the Great: How to Train the Overhead Press One of the Greatest Overhead Pressers in History Tells How He Trained
    Starting Strength Grippaldi the Great: How to Train the Overhead Press One of the greatest overhead pressers in history tells how he trained by Marty Gallagher In terms of being a legitimate muscle publication, by 1971 the once mighty Strength & Health magazine had self-imploded. Bill Starr had left and created a creative and directional vacuum. Owner Bob Hoffman and his right hand (hatchet) man John Terpak felt they needed to reassert editorial dominance. As staunch Nixon men, Hoffman and Terpak felt that Starr and the “youth movement” had been a total pain in the ass, and now that Starr was gone they could remake S&H into something more “sensible” and “mainstream.” Meanwhile Joe Weider was completely embracing the youth movement while presenting the first wave of physical super-freaks: Sergio Oliva, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Franco Columbo and Robbie Robinson began appearing in regular rotation as cover men on Muscle Builder, the flagship Weider publication. Joe was all about the youth movement, sensible be damned. Hoffman hated bodybuilding. He could not believe that a red-blooded American male given a choice between participating in effete bodybuilding or manly Olympic weightlifting would, in overwhelming numbers, embrace bodybuilding and send Olympic weightlifting down the same long lonesome road as buggy whips, iceboxes and rumble seats. Too cheap and arrogant to seek professional magazine help, he published an increasingly amateurish publication that featured one lame S&H cover after another. It was embarrassing: Hoffman would pair up sub-par male physiques with amateur females that knew nothing about how to pose in front of photographers that knew nothing about physique photography.

  • Olympic Weightlifting Area Manual
    Olympic Weightlifting Area Training Manual Introduction: UC Santa Barbara Recreation is excited to offer Olympic Weightlifting with 2 platforms in Fitness Center West. The Olympic Weightlifting Area is a monitored, controlled space where UCSB students and Recreation Center members may perform Olympic Weightlifting lifts after meeting certain safety criteria. Patrons wishing to utilize the Olympic Weightlifting Platform Area must be “authorized” by one of our nationally certified personal trainers prior to lifting. This manual is by no means a comprehensive overview of Olympic Weightlifting technique or coaching strategies. It has been created to cover facility rules and basic safety recommendations. For more information on Olympic Weightlifting coaching and services please contact findyourfi[email protected] . Equipment Each platform will be equipped with an Olympic (weightlifting) bar, bumper plates, and training plates, as well as a storage area for the bumpers and plates. The bar weighs 20kg (44 lbs) and is not to be moved from the platform (for example: to be used for bench pressing). The bar is designed specifically for weightlifting movements, and the sleeves will rotate to assist with these lifts. Weightlifting bars also have more “whip” or flex, compared to a powerlifting bar. Colored bumper plates are rubberized and designed to withstand dropping. They will bounce a bit when dropped, and the rubber mats on each side of the platform will minimize bounce and noise. The lifter is also responsible for controlling the bar as it bounces. Colored bumper plates are only to be used on the platform. Training plates provide beginning or less strong lifters with the ability to begin each lift from the same position as a stronger lifter using the colored bumper plates.
