The IWF Weightlifting World Championships run from Sept 18th-27th in Pattaya, Thailand.

We cobbled together (read: mostly copy/pasted) the schedule below for all A-sessions and all Team USA sessions based on the World’s thread from Reddit. We added our local time for those watching in the U.S.

Initial times listed are local Pattaya, Thailand time. Times in bold parenthesis are LOS ANGELES (Pacific) time.

The sessions will be broadcast live on the Olympic Channel. They will also be rebroadcasted on ESPN3 on the same day (and archived there for future viewing).

Sean is at the event as part of the broadcast team. When you hear the A-sessions announced via ESPN3 or other English broadcast, the voices you hear providing commentary include Sean Waxman, JP Nicoletta, and David Boffa, with help from Mark Canella and Michael Choi.

SESSION SCHEDULE

Sean will lead USAW’s Level 1 coaching course at our gym on August 24-25. Register here to join us.

Want expert feedback on your Olympic lifts without a major commitment? Look no further. Our Fix Your Technique Sundays are back.

Come fix your Snatch and/or Clean & Jerk technique under the watchful eyes of one of our coaches. Not a class but personal, custom coaching.

• Identify what you’re doing well
• Learn what aspect(s) of your technique needs the most work
• Learn drills you can take home for practice and improvement

This has been one of our most popular services over the last several years. We’re bringing it back by demand.

We’ll be open the following Sundays for custom coaching by appointment:

• July 28 – SOLD OUT
• August 18 – SOLD OUT
• September 15 – SOLD OUT
• NEW: October 20
• NEW: November 24

We now have 2 sessions available each Sunday: 10:00am-12:00pm and 12:00pm-2:00pm

Limited to just 4 people per session.

$45. Non-members only. Advanced registration required. Reserve your spot here.

Please note: These sessions are designed to fix your existing technique. You need not have lots of experience, but some prior practice is required (otherwise we’ll have no technique to fix!). If you’ve never practiced the snatch or clean & jerk, consider our BASICS course instead.

On June 22, we will be hosting a sanctioned weightlifting meet at our gym in Los Angeles. All standard IWF/USAW competition rules will apply.

Sessions will run from approximately 8am until 5pm. Exact schedule and sessions to be determined based on registrations.
