@prettyboyswagnyc it's called olympic lifting, powerlifting is squat, bench press and deadlift. And I would like to see a BBer attempt to snatch 300 pounds
@prettyboyswagnyc Oi fuck you cunt, You Thong wearing gay bastard,Don't you dare come on weightlifting video & post your nonsense,First its Weightlifting then Powerlifting you Gay body builders are not even in the list now go & wear a thong in front off some Judges
@prettyboyswagnyc are you serious this guy called prettyboy calling someone a skinny bastard its easy to talk shit on the internet bodybuilders have no fighting skill and its mostly just beach fluff they could care less about building real strength
the guy before the last-he is extremely thin-how the hell is he lifting that amount of weight???? makes me wonna quit training (+go commit suicide !) !
just a question, when they pause for a second before doing the press in the beginning where do they rest the weight? shoulders or that bone right below the neck?
@thericky1 they rest the bar just behind the clavicle, on the shoulders. That position demand a bit of flexibility, so try practicing with just the bar, having only 1 or 2 fingers under it and keeping your elbows high, over time it becomes natural (and quite confortable!)
I know that I am a sinner and need Your forgiveness. I believe that You died on the cross for my sins and rose from the grave to give me life. I know You are the only way to God. So now I want to quit disobeying You and start living for You. Please forgive me, change my life and show me how to know You. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Typical Chinese commie propaganda. One can attribute their success in sport to the fact that they have the finest chemists is the world and are the best cheaters in the world. In communist-oppressed China you can choose to lift weights and be pampered in a gym or go out and dig ditches 18 hours/day for $1.25.
@middlemanoftime how is this propaganda they talk about sport how they train and how they worry not to get injured i didnt hear any single word about praising China or comunist party they talked about thers dreams and training,so if some american athlete is doing same it is tipical american propaganda,and talking about chemistry i just lol at that,american olimpic team had balco laboratory to make undetectable roids for them,so much about cheating
ronnie coleman eats beans and cornbread beans and cornbread beans and cornbread beans and cornbread beans and cornbread beans and cornbread beans and cornbread
Success is built on roids and genetic modification honey !!! All the rest are for you people to believe that things can be achieved in intensity and belief and shit like that !!
@Nippon1971 u cant just take roids and be #1 if that is case everyone will be #1,u have to have genetical predispositions,and to have balls to go thru all this pain and suffering to be where these athlets are,last guy in interview was in coma after injury and doctors said to him he will have hard time to walk and and he won 2008 olympics in his class,u need to have strong will and determination and never give up it is not just about roids
@obrad79 Yes all that is good but without roids the lifting numbers are way way way way down. There is no way in the entire world that a 85kg man c&j 220kg without roids. If anybody believes that then I guess that human brain is already dead....So to mess you up but everybody talks about records and records but not the truth of how these records are accomplished...
This is so fucking true! For people who say weights stunt your growth, you're wrong. The reason majority of elite O lifters are shorter is because the shorter you are the higher the advantage you have in lifts such as the snatch, clean and Jerk and the power lift Squat. While some bigger taller blokes have a decent advantage with the Dead lift which is seen by many as the ultimate lift.!
@cannonbulk that's very true! im 6'03 and have a very weak squat and clean compared to my deadlift. deadlift definitely feels much easier for me with having longer legs.
Would be great if they revamped all of powerlifting and make it so that you have to lift raw. Only thing that can be used is chalk. Make it so only the conventional deadlift will be accepted. Make it so that only a standard squat olympic style squat will be accepted and bring back the overhead press and ditch the 3" belly benching.
nikolasbelmont ur making unfounded accusations. Theres a reason so many records from the 1980's still stand, Olympic testing has become far more advanced in recent years. They are heavily supplemented like every elite athelete but not necessarily with steroids. Professional sports may be a diffirent story but i believed that steroid use peaked out from the 1980s to early 2000's. In this period there are pretty much no muscular athletes that arent suspect.
It's a shame that most of the "gyms" today are gimmicky health clubs, with people being unaware of the fact that you can have a sexy, powerful body with a barbell alone, and without expensive machines, protein shakes and supplements.
Xurma, I'm not sure if your comment is a provocation, but I'm going to treat it as if it wasn't.
Yes, these guys are using insane amounts of junk. These results would not be possible without chemical enhancement = steroids. That doesn't take away the fact that these guys train like animals and have incredible determination. But any world-class strength/speed involving sport these days is drugged. P.s. I think you need to re-examine your approach on supplements - it's hard to get enough protein.
Oh no, it was not a provocation. Just wanted someone to confirm it in detail.
About protein; there is nothing wrong with consuming a protein shake every now and then, but marketing it as an absolutely essential part in training is irritating me.
@pseudoBearmode but it is essential if you train seriously at any level
the amount of damage you cause to your muscle requires a higher intake of proteins and other nutrients.. you can buy meat or you can use shakes or both
ok smart guy answer me this question. Why are guy that are prison soo jacked and strong? They have three crappy meals a day, they wouldnt have access to roids, and definatley no protien powder. Protien powder is just icing on cake it isnt absolutely necessary to have.
@Sarge343 Well think about how expensive they would be. What about they check points they have to go through? Im pretty sure that they have worse diets than anybody body else that works All im say is that training is more important than diet when is comes to gaining muscle and strength.
Yea I don't think bodybuilding is really relevant here. Weightlifting is a strength sport while bodybuilding isn't. I'm pretty sure if ronnie coleman was a strength athlete he'd be awesome, but he's not.
I'm a big ronnie coleman fan and I never heard of him being a weightlifter. Yes he's very strong, but lb for lb against elite weightlifters he's a joke, rightfully so. He doesn't train for strength.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
ronnie coleman can shoulder press 140kg 12 reps without the full body motion...just arms. i wonder how much ronnie can do when he does use the full body motion... around 220kg?
Ronnie Coleman is a 300+ pound bodybuilding genetic and steroid freak. How is he relevant to this video in any way? Gennady Ivanchenko was a 82.5 kilo weightlifter who had a strict press of 178.5 kg. That's 2.16bw. Vardanian had a jerk of 230 kg or more at the same bodyweight. Get the fuck out with your bodybuilding arguments.
i was just sayin you fuckface. What the fuck you gettin all excited for dumbass lol and these guys ur talkin bout they do that for life. Ronnie does other workouts too like bicep curls, benchpress, and a whole other shitload of stuff. Quit tryin to defend these guys when im not even accusing or offending anyone you jackass.
Their use of PEDs is not related to muscle mass, it's related to recovery which then allows more training sessions and volume. My post about Ronnie Coleman was about people who came here to start discussions about him, which is not relevant to weightlifting at all. Ronnie Coleman is a bodybuilder, it's disrespectful to Olympic athletes to be compared with him.
@ytubeserb no, they use androgenic hormones as bodybuilders do, to increase strength.Almost same thigs used, for different purpose. And it is not a disrespect for neither of them, bodybuilders train as hard as all other athletes.
Strength increase is the direct effect of improved recovery. The more you train, the more your performance will increase. To train more, you need to recover more quickly. That's where steroids come from. They don't increase strength like a magic pill. That's from movies. Bodybuilders train hard, sure, but not as hard as these guys because these guys started when they were 12 years old and have two to three training sessions a day (bulgarians were even more extreme).
Correction from previous comment: "that's when steroids come to play" is what I wanted to say. Also, the training regimen and lives of these athletes are totally different that what bodybuilders have. They had this life during childhood and they live it now. Bodybuilders mostly started in highschool. Also, sarcoplasmic hypertrophy for aesthetics is way easier to achieve than let's say clean and jerk 200 KG. That's a fact.
I love how they are so humble when they talk, It's true what they say though. I was training for power lifting before but 5 months ago I watched this and started getting into Olympic lifting. Very inspirational video and the training is hard to do in your health club.

That's 2.16bw. Vardanian had a jerk of 230 kg or more at the same bodyweight. Get the fuck out with your bodybuilding arguments.

i was just sayin you fuckface. What the fuck you gettin all excited for dumbass lol and these guys ur talkin bout they do that for life. Ronnie does other workouts too like bicep curls, benchpress, and a whole other shitload of stuff. Quit tryin to defend these guys when im not even accusing or offending anyone you jackass.

Their use of PEDs is not related to muscle mass, it's related to recovery which then allows more training sessions and volume. My post about Ronnie Coleman was about people who came here to start discussions about him, which is not relevant to weightlifting at all. Ronnie Coleman is a bodybuilder, it's disrespectful to Olympic athletes to be compared with him.

@ytubeserb no, they use androgenic hormones as bodybuilders do, to increase strength.Almost same thigs used, for different purpose. And it is not a disrespect for neither of them, bodybuilders train as hard as all other athletes.

Strength increase is the direct effect of improved recovery. The more you train, the more your performance will increase. To train more, you need to recover more quickly. That's where steroids come from. They don't increase strength like a magic pill. That's from movies. Bodybuilders train hard, sure, but not as hard as these guys because these guys started when they were 12 years old and have two to three training sessions a day (bulgarians were even more extreme).

Correction from previous comment: "that's when steroids come to play" is what I wanted to say. Also, the training regimen and lives of these athletes are totally different that what bodybuilders have. They had this life during childhood and they live it now. Bodybuilders mostly started in highschool. Also, sarcoplasmic hypertrophy for aesthetics is way easier to achieve than let's say clean and jerk 200 KG. That's a fact.

I love how they are so humble when they talk, It's true what they say though. I was training for power lifting before but 5 months ago I watched this and started getting into Olympic lifting. Very inspirational video and the training is hard to do in your health club.
