To warm up for Olympic Weightlifting, we always recommend starting with some light cardio followed with various mobility exercises such as Warrior Squats and Back Rack Elbow Rotations to improve range of movement. Once complete, you're ready for a barbell specific warm-up, and our guide below will allow you to improve speed and confidence whilst sharpening your technique.

With an empty barbell, complete 2-3 sets of:
