This exciting development means we’re offering Olympic weightlifting classes at our Capalaba location, alongside our Wynnum gym.


It’s an incredible opportunity for anyone ready to elevate their fitness journey and explore the sport of weightlifting.


What is Olympic Weightlifting?

  • The Snatch
  • The Clean and Jerk


These lifts require a powerful combination of:

  • Strength
  • Speed
  • Power
  • Flexibility
  • Precision technique


While challenging, Olympic lifting offers unparalleled benefits for overall athleticism, coordination, and full-body strength.

Led by certified coaches, each session will focus on:

  • Teaching proper technique
  • Building strength and explosive power
  • Improving your performance in both the snatch and clean and jerk


Technique: Mastering the Lifts

In our classes, you’ll:

  • Break down each movement step-by-step
  • Learn proper setup, grip, pulling, and catching techniques

Gradually, you’ll refine your technique and unlock your full lifting potential.

  • Developing explosive power
  • Enhancing coordination and speed


Our classes include:

  • Specific drills

Your free week at Rebuild Capalaba starts here
July 10, 2026
If you've spent a year or two in a high-intensity group class around Capalaba, Alexandra Hills or Chandler, you'll probably recognise this pattern. The first six months are brilliant. You're fitter, sweatier, and proud of yourself for showing up. Then, somewhere around month eight, the progress slows. You're still working just as hard, but the scales won't move, your knee niggles at you on leg day, and the sessions start to feel more like survival than progress. This isn't a motivation problem. It's usually a sign that your training needs a different kind of structure, and it's one of the most common reasons people across the Redlands come to us at Rebuild Capalaba looking for something a bit more tailored.
