Olympic Weightlifting - Information, History, Rules | London 2012

To a large degree, the Sport of Fitness -- CrossFit -- has revitalized the Sport of Weightlifting. For the hundreds of thousands of people doing CrossFit, I'd bet that most had never done a clean and jerk or snatch prior to doing CrossFit; however, weightlifting has been part of the Olympic Games since ancient times and has been featured in the modern Olympics beginning with the first modern Olympic Games in 1896.

Keep up with the 2012 London Olympic Games and the weightlifting events.

ERICK BRUDER - 15TH IN THE WORLD

Erick made us all proud to be CrossFitters this past weekend at the 2012 Reebok CrossFit Games in LA. Erick went up against some incredible athletes from around the world in his masters 50 - 54 age group and came out #15 in the world! Congrats to Erick and a huge thanks to all of our CrossFitters at CrossFit Ocean City for all the support over these past few months.

REEBOK CROSSFIT GAMES 2012 - TEAM BRUDER UPDATE

Well, we all made it to California for the weekend! Nineteen CFOC CrossFitters - including Erick and his family. Wow! What an awesome showing. As I look back on the past five-plus years that Erick has been training and coaching in our gym, it's very fitting that Erick has made it here to compete.
