Why Weightlifting?
Weightlifting is not just a discipline for professional athletes but an effective training for all fitness levels.

Tips for Your Weightlifting
The Right Technique
Proper technique is crucial to avoid injuries and make progress. Use Technique Plates or a Junior Barbell, for example, to practice your technique with lighter weights. Lifting straps are a practical addition when it comes to heavy weights. Slant Boards and Squat Wedges elevate your heels, which can aid in improved execution.
Safety First
When lifting heavy, weightlifting belts provide valuable support for the core, and wraps can offer relief for joints. Thumb tapes support the hook grip and protect the skin.A barbell neck pad provides more comfort during exercises like squats.
Optimize training environment
A stable sports floor protects your surface and equipment. Drop pads are another sensible addition for intense training. They reduce noise and vibration when dropping weights and protect the floor and weight plates. Suitable gym equipment expands your training possibilities and ensures professional training.
