Starting Strength has in depth information on how to do a low bar squat properly as well as flat bench, row, power cleans and the deadlift. I started with that book, and youtube videos, as well as uploading videos of myself and getting critiques.
i have kids and it isn't feasible for me to get any regular sort of gym time, so we bought a squat rack and a couple oly sets. it is absolutely possible to learn this without personal trainers, but it takes more research.
i would rather have a personal trainer who is experienced in lifting though. for sure. i would trade my pinkie toe for a good oly lifter in town. i would love to learn the snatch, and i just don't want to attempt learning that on my own.
