    About this ebook

    In 2012, Kazakhstan shocked the weightlifting world by winning four Gold medals at the London Olympics. Kazakhstan had competed as an independent country at the Olympics since 1996. Before the 2008 Olympics, Kazakhstan had never won gold in weightlifting. The secrets of Kazakhstan’s success lie in four elements: gifted athletes, a big goal, government funding, and a good plan.

    This book will provide new insights into the programming of Master of the Sport level weightlifters in Kazakhstan. This information will help elite athletes reach new levels
    of performance.
