If you’re new to my channel, my name is Max Aita. I’m the founder of Weightlifting AI & CoachLogik and have spent over two decades in high level weightlifting—as an athlete, a coach, and now as a founder helping lifters train smarter.
I’ve learned from some of the greatest minds in the sport, coached world-class athletes, and developed a data-driven approach to weightlifting programming that has helped thousands of weightlifters get stronger and lift better.
My Background:
Athlete Experience: Trained under Ivan Abadjiev, Steve Gough, Boris Sheiko, and others—immersing myself in the American, Russian, and Bulgarian systems of weightlifting.
Coaching Career: The only coach in history to produce five separate Senior American record holders.
Championships & Records: Coached multiple World and Pan Am Champions, as well as record holders in Weightlifting.
Author & Educator: Wrote The Technique Triad and other influential weightlifting books, breaking down elite-level weightlifting mechanics and methodology.
Innovation: Developed the programming logic that powers Weightlifting AI, taking everything I’ve learned and making it accessible to lifters at every level.
What You’ll Get on This Channel:
Weightlifting breakdowns – Learn the nuances of technique and how to fix common mistakes.
Programming insights – Understand how to train smarter, not just harder.
Reaction videos & case studies – See what works (and what doesn’t) in real lifters.
Q&A & Coaching Lessons – Get expert advice on all things weightlifting.
If you’re serious about getting better, you’re in the right place.
Welcome to the community.
