History
Capital City Barbell was established in August 2015. We are the first and only USAW Weightlifting Gym in Salem, OR. Within the first 5 months as a club, we have qualified 5 lifters for a National event, 4 of them being Masters Lifters and 1 Youth Lifter.
Specialties
Capital City Barbell is dedicated to teaching the Olympic lifts. Not to exclude proper accessory, mobility, and base strength training. We focus on individual training in a group setting, with emphasis on producing technically proficient weightlifters. We fix positions before adding weight and focus on mobility and accessory training based on individual needs and imbalances. Our athletes work hard and we take a great amount of pride in our program and coaching. We believe that every body functions and moves differently, therefore that will reflect in your training. We help individuals find the lifting style that best suits them to maximize their potential.
