Life-Long Weightlifting Experience. Olympia Weightlifting owner and Romania native, Istvan Dioszegi, grew up in the weightlifting world. Istvan explains that in Romania, coaches come to the schools to select kids for national sports teams. These coaches are looking for high-performance athletes, who have potential to excel.
In 1992, 11-year-old Istvan was selected for the weightlifting team. He left his family to train full time. After just 8 months, Istvan was moved to the high level national training camp. At 14 years old, he was European national champion. In 2004, Istvan was selected for the Olympic games.
Developing A Career. After that, Istvan was hired by the Romanian Intelligence Service. He worked for them for 7 years doing antiterrorism, sky martial, etc. During that time, Istvan was also in charge of strength and conditioning classes. Then in 2012, Istvan came to the United States to visit his in-laws, who lived here. While visiting, Istvan was also determining if he might have an interest in moving to this country himself.
Istvan then went back to Romania and finished his Masters Degree in Military Science to become an officer. He later got passed up because of politics. He eventually decided to come to America in 2014 and opened his own gym—Olympia Weightlifting. Today, Coach Istvan proudly carries on the Romanian weightlifting tradition in America.

Olympia Weightlifting Reviews
“Olympia is by far the best Weightlifting gym in Arizona. You won’t find better platforms or equipment anywhere else. The coaching quality is phenomenal. The head coach Istvan takes his time building each athlete individually. You never feel left out. Personally my favorite part about Olympia is the family type of environment and also you will pr like crazy.”—Tyler C.
“I joined Olympia Weightlifting Center about two and a half months ago, and have had an incredible productive and positive experience so far! Head coach Istvan has an incredible eye for improving technique and also gives us very effective programming. My lifts have become much more consistent and I have strengthened a lot of the deficiencies that I had. All of the other athletes are very fun to be around and always encouraging. I would highly recommend this gym for anybody interested in weightlifting, you are not only joining a gym but a family of highly motivated like minded individuals.”—David M.
“With zero experience in weightlifting, I got lucky finding Olympia & speaking with Coach Istvan. Within minutes I knew he was more focused on his athletes/members more than anything else. With his guidance and trust I have become very comfortable with Olympic style weightlifting. Not only have I gained the knowledge behind the lifts, I’ve gained strength, physique, and confidence. 10/10 would recommend!”—Mario M.
“Words can not even express adequately the training experience one will receive at Olympia Weightlifting Center. Owner and Coach, Istvan Diosergzi, former Romanian European Weightlifting Champion brings with him a time tested concrete form of training and competition style unlike any others here in the USA. OWC provides both group training and personal programming for the competitive athlete. We boast of many competitors ranging from youth to master’s division. On a personal note, I am now entering into my 5th year as a competitor under the training and programming of Istvan Diosergzi, with his guidance I have medaled at Nationals, Pan American, and Worlds. Much gratitude to my coach and friend.”—Monique W.
“If you want to lift this is the place to be! All the coaches have been extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Everyone is very welcoming, encouraging and constantly rooting for you to do/be better.”—Jeshika L.
