At the IOC conference in Monte Carlo, the world’s leading professors, doctors and sports and conditioning scientists heard how Davy Snowdon and Pristine Condition are helping create changes in behaviour that not only improve health and wellbeing in the workplace – but also for society as a whole.
Snowdon highlighted to the IOC how the science of Olympic weightlifting is making a major contribution to national health and wellbeing around the globe.
Davy Snowdon said:
“An anatomical, mechanical and scientifically proven system of the perfect technique of lifting weights has been successfully implemented by Olympians for many years.
What we do is transfer these Olympic principles to commercial industry. The results have been unprecedented and – in the case of MARS Chocolate – completely eradicating manual handling accidents and injuries. Among other benefits, this approach has had significant positive implications in the general community through reduced strain on doctors and health services. While we guarantee a 50 per cent reduction in workplace injuries, a majority of the organsiations we work with achieve far greater reduction rates using proven Olympic techniques.”
Founded in 1996, Pristine Condition International for the first time ever adapted the principles of Olympic weightlifting to benefit commercial industry and the wellbeing of society at large. Pristine Condition delivers scientifically-proven, practical and sustainable health & safety programmes to a global client base of more than 2,000 blue chip companies across almost every industry sector.
Davy Snowdon MBE, is a former Weightlifting World Record holder, conditioning expert for the Olympic Federation covering all sports for two Olympic Games, a former National and staff coach for the British Weightlifting Team and lecturer for many governing bodies.
