Olympic Weightlifting tests and develops explosive strength. The mixture of power and strength expressed through precise techniques is the kind of weightlifting you see at the Olympic Games. At CrossFit Twente, you can get started on Olympic Weightlifting by joining group classes or workshops. It’s also possible to develop your weightlifting skills during personal training sessions. To promote the sport (so you can get a taste of it), we also host competitions like ‘Trekk’n & Stoot’n’.
It doesn’t matter what your level is— our athletes range from all kinds of beginners to a three-time National Champion. You can join the classes to either compete in Olympic Weightlifting, improve your techniques or to simply enjoy the sport. During the classes, we’ll develop your strength and upgrade your techniques. Besides being able to lift more and more weight, you’ll become more muscular, stronger and toned. After gaining more and more experience, you’ll be able to gracefully perform the exercises while handling the right techniques.
At CrossFit Twente, you’ll find all the gear you need for Olympic Weightlifting. Our dedicated lifting area is filled with platforms, jerk blocks, pulling blocks, a power rack, benches, Eleiko squat racks, Eleiko lifting bars, other specialty barbells and all the chalk you need. Besides great gear to work with, you’ll be trained by the best weightlifting coaches in the area— we take a lot of pride in performing in and winning multiple National and International Championships. And, our coaches are of course certified by Eleiko and/or CrossFit.
OUR OLYMPIC WEIGHTLIFTING CLASSES

Whether you want to improve your techniques for the CrossFit classes or want to develop more explosive power: Olympic Weightlifting is for you.
Throwback to last year’s 24 Hour AMRAP Challenge. What an incredible journey and above all an unforgettable experience together 💛
This year we come together once again to relive that same energy, teamwork and atmosphere. Join us and experience what makes this challenge so special!
PS, These photo’s where taken by @noelle_klg in the last hour of the 24 hours! 🔥
On June 13th & 14th, we’re organizing the 24-hour AMRAP for charity once again. After raising nearly €3000 for suicide prevention last year, we want to come together again to raise awareness for mental health. 💛
This event means a lot to us, as we lost a beloved member of our community 2 years ago. Through this challenge, we want to support one another and create more awareness around mental health.
During the event, teams will complete as many reps as possible of a specific exercise every hour for 24 hours straight. Everyone at Crossfit Twente is welcome to join, whether for a few hours or the full overnight experience.
This year, signing up is easier through the Crossfit Twente app. You can register for a 2-hour block, join your own team, or we’ll place you in one.
We’re also raising money for 113 Zelfmoordpreventie. Scan the QR code or go to the link in bio and donate 💛
