The Snatch

The Emory Weightlifting Club was started in 2004 by Steve Lewis, the varsity Strength and Conditioning coach. The club lifts in the Emory University Varsity Weightroom. In 2004 the Varsity Weightroom was located near the back corner of the Basketball Arena in the Woodruff PE Center (WoodPEC). This room was not much bigger than a 1 car garage. But renovations to the WoodPEC in 2005 have given us a room with 12 platforms and a multitude of other strength training equipment (and a nice view of the track and soccer field).

We have formal training sessions Monday and Thursday evenings and Saturday afternoons. We can also lift during Open gym hours when all Varsity athletes and Weightlifting Club members can lift. For updated information on Open Hours and Summer Hours, go to http://www.learnlink.emory.edu/emoryweightlifting.
