Chichester Weightlifting Club - Chichester

Rebecca Brown

Lee is fantastic! I’m still fairly new to exercise as someone who has struggled to go to gyms my whole life due to anxiety. I’ve always felt comfortable with Lee, I’m never made to feel stupid for not knowing how to do things and he actually explains movements in a way that make sense. I’ve grown in confidence hugely with my lifting since starting at Chichester Weightlifting club and my mobility is improving too. For anyone serious about lifting or being better at CrossFit I would highly recommend seeing Lee!

Had the opportunity to train under Lee's coaching last week. His focus on mobility and injury prevention is excellent. Each session started with a good amount of time focusing on warming up and stretching the correct muscle groups. I wholeheartedly recommend CWC to anyone interested in learning how to do the olympic lifts, and to anyone interested in improving their overall strength and mobility.

I’ve had both small group private coaching and attended normal classes with Lee. Both have been outstanding coaching and an exceptional experience in the oversaturated fitness arena. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced athlete you will gain great insight, overall fitness and mobility. Lee is a kind and humble coach with the right level of spurring you on and encouraging you.

The head coach, Lee, is an incredible guy. He is someone you can have fun and joke around with all while he has a keen eye and attention to detail with his coaching. I've seen steady improvements in my strength and mobility since joining!

Exceptional Olympic Weightlifting Coaching and Supportive Community!

I have been a member of Chichester Weightlifting Club for two months now and I am thrilled with my experience. The facilities are top-notch, with equipment in excellent condition and perfectly suited to support my weightlifting journey.

One of the standout features of this club is the Olympic weightlifting coaching sessions, which I attend four times a week. These sessions are limited to just four people per class, ensuring that each member receives ample attention and personalised coaching. This small group setting has allowed me to progress faster and become stronger as well as more confident in my lifts.

Lee, our coach, is incredibly skilled and attentive. He prioritises safety above all else, and his constructive, easy-to-follow advice has helped me improve my technique significantly. Recently, he helped me tweak my Clean and Jerk technique, making a huge difference that would have otherwise taken months to correct.

What makes Lee an exceptional coach is not just his technical expertise but also his welcoming and inclusive attitude. He creates an environment where everyone feels encouraged and motivated to train regularly. His coaching style is a significant reason why I would wholeheartedly recommend this club to anyone interested in taking up or improving their Olympic weightlifting skills.

Overall, my experience at the Chichester Weightlifting Club has been incredibly positive. It's the first time in a long while that I've felt truly motivated and inspired to train regularly. I look forward to continuing my journey here and achieving more of my fitness goals.

Lee’s attention to detail and extensive knowledge has yielded massive improvements in my Olympic lifting. His small classes ensure that each session is ‘group personal training’ and allow everyone individual attention for each lift they do. It is a friendly, safe, and welcoming environment for complete beginners through to advanced lifters.

CWC couldn’t be further from the daunting, competitive, testosterone fuelled environment I expected from a weightlifting club. Lee is a phenomenal coach and the focus is on individual improvement in all areas. I finally understand the fundamentals of Olympic lifting, and I feel supported and encouraged to go further. My confidence has grown in just a few sessions, with the amazing uplifting community and small class sizes. I’m really excited to continue my training and lift better and heavier as time goes on.
