  • Mecka Fitness Washington Road Pittsburgh, PA, 15228 United States (map)

About the class.

  • Small group sessions: engage in four 90 minute sessions spread over a one month block that will focus on enhancing mobility and overall technical proficiency with the snatch and clean and jerk.

  • Customized mobility work: Classes begin with mobility exercises to address deficits at the spine, hips, and ankles to promote better body mechanics and enhance the lifting experience

  • Barbell basics to complex mastery: empty barbell movements are utilized to prime the body for the main lifts and complexes are completed to sharpen technique

  • Strength building: Supplemental strength is provided to build a strong foundation, which is crucial for all weight lifters

Who’s this for?

  • Open to a variety of skill levels: Whether you are newer to Crossfit or have been doing it for years, this class is designed to break down each lift to promote body awareness, develop better positions, and improve timing
