Altamonte Weightlifting
The program is conducted for the beginner and advanced level participant at the Lake Brantley Athletic Complex Fieldhouse.
A youth instructional program for boys and girls 11 years old and up. Beginners have a great time learning about weight training and walk away with more respect and understanding of exercise; while returning participants, often competitors, strive to earn high placing at local, state, and national tournaments. All of this is supervised by USA Weightlifting Certified Instructors. There are also competitive opportunities for those interested in traveling with the team for tournaments.
The program is proud to have introduced weight training to many young lives and is most proud of the achievements made by the Altamonte Weightlifting team. In 2006, Head Instructor Danny Camargo was selected as a U.S. Coach and helped lead Team USA's Jr. Group to an international competition in Ecuador. He brings to the program experience, education, and enthusiasm.
Altamonte Weightlifting is a year-round program with sessions that run every six (6) weeks. The cost is $70.00 per participant for each six (6) week session. Practices are held Monday through Thursday evenings from 7:00pm to 8:00pm at the Lake Brantley High School Athletic Complex Fieldhouse weight room.
