Olympic Weightlifting
Your pathway from the training platform to the competition stage with Immortal Athletics at New Horizon CrossFit. Competition is where training comes alive. At Immortal Athletics, we believe every athlete who is willing to put in the work deserves the opportunity to stand on a platform and test themselves. Whether you are stepping onto the competition stage for the first time or chasing national selection, our coaching team is here to guide every step of your journey.
Olympic Weightlifting is one of the most exciting individual sports in the world. Two lifts — the Snatch and the Clean & Jerk — each contested across multiple attempts in front of judges and a crowd. The margin for error is small, the reward for success is immense, and the feeling of hitting a competition lift is unlike anything else in sport.

The Benefits of Olympic Weightlifting
We believe Olympic Weightlifting is one of the most rewarding sports anyone can take up — regardless of age, background or fitness level. Here are ten reasons why you should start lifting with us.
Olympic lifts — the Snatch and the Clean & Jerk — recruit virtually every major muscle group simultaneously. Unlike isolation exercises, they build functional, total-body strength that carries over into everyday life and other sports.
Every session requires focus, patience and resilience. Mastering a new lift — or hitting a personal best — builds a mental fortitude that extends far beyond the platform and into every corner of your life.
You train alongside people who share your passion. Weightlifting is a team sport at heart — coaches and athletes celebrate each other's victories and support each other through challenges.
You do not need to be strong, fit or experienced to begin. Our coaches meet you exactly where you are, building technique from the ground up in a safe, welcoming and encouraging environment.
We Are Deeply Committed to
Developing Young Athletes
Not just as weightlifters, but as confident, disciplined and resilient individuals. Our youth coaching programme is built on the belief that with the right guidance, any young person can thrive under the barbell.
Olympic Weightlifting is widely recognised as one of the safest and most beneficial sports young people can take part in. When coached correctly, it builds physical foundations that serve athletes for a lifetime — regardless of whether they go on to compete or simply want to be strong, healthy and capable.
Our workouts build real strength and endurance. You’ll lift, move, and sweat through sessions that make you more capable in and out of the gym.
Youth coaching is not simply a scaled-down version of adult training. We follow an age-appropriate, long-term athlete development model that prioritises technique and confidence above all else.
Endurance training builds your engine. It teaches your body and mind to keep going when things get hard. Mobility keeps you moving the way you were built to. It is strength through range, control through motion.
Our community is the heartbeat of New Horizon CrossFit. The people beside you turn hard work into something bigger. The energy and the shared effort make every session feel purposeful. Around here, no one trains alone, everyone moves forward...
