Resistance training has long been a method used to increase athletic capacity in terms of endurance, muscle mass and strength (McGuigan, M., R., 2012). Additionally, there are techniques that are appropriate in developing power in advanced clients and have been shown to be superior to more traditional resistance training techniques (Suchomel, 2017). Selection of these weightlifting techniques for use as an advanced training modality in power production have shown to be effective in clients and should be implemented (Tricoli, V., et al 2005).

Join us under the dome at 2 Royal Avenue to participate in the making of a unique piece of art with Gardner & Gardner’s ‘Peacemakers’ large-scale French knitting loom. Drop in to chat with the artists and try your hand at this simple but beautiful craft. Over the week we will see the piece grow, its richness of colour and texture reflecting the vibrancy of the city we call home and the interconnection of the individual strands of our stories. On the final day the yarn will be cast off, stretched out and measured, creating a single textile piece which will be presented at the Festival’s closing event. Based in Glasgow, Heidi and Peter Gardner are a husband-and-wife artist duo who have taken their Peace Loom to several cities since its initial installation in Scotland in 2014. This installation as part of the Festival will be the first in Northern Ireland with the work reflecting the community of those who live, work and socialise in Belfast. Donations of leftover wool to contribute to the project would be gratefully received and can be brought at any time during the project.
