Here are some examples of why you should stick with it.
Olympic Weightlifting takes time so if you are in Raise the Bar or the teens class stick with it. You never know what could happen with consistency and hard work.
And guess what...you'll fix one thing and another thing will then need more work. There's always more stuff to work on πͺπ½
