Before weight classes restructure, Anatoly Khrapaty cleaned and Jerked 235 KG at 90- KG body weight while Alexendar Popov cleaned and Jerked 242.5 KG at 100 KG body weight, so 94 KG body weight ideal lift would be 237.5. However, this is a great lift a that body weight and nobody has reached it since it was set. Too bad he was tested for steroids shortly and then was restated to compete in the 2008 Olympics. I believe that record was drug related
@Grongo237 The only reason Rezazadeh didn't clean and jerk 270+ was because of his religious and athletic pride and morality. He won all the time, but most of the time he won by the minimum because of said pride.
@RandomStevie you weren't at the olympics and at multiple world championships where you could be judged as the first man to Clean and Jerk 272kg ever. I'm sorry I don't believe Rezazdeh "chose" to not go to his full potential.
@RandomStevie I believe that multiple supers have done 272 in training...but there's a BIG difference between that and doing it on the world stage. I believe Rezazedah was definitely capable- but it wasn't a "sure" thing. I also believe that Chemerkin was capable too. So was Taranenko, PIsarenko and others. None did it in competition. Why? I don't know.
@tombennettpiano Never said any of them did it on a world stage, that's a well known fact. I'm saying that they are all capable of it, and they don't do it on a world stage because of the athletic pride, plus no one has pressured them to make 272.5.
@Grongo237 Because things are not proportional. Naim was the first guy to clean&jerk more than 3 times his weight, 192 KG at 60-, 3.2 to be exact, if you apply the same math, then Syzmon should have cleaned & jerked 300 KG instead of 232.5, it does not work that way. I see alot comments against Rezazadeh, may be he is not pretty, may be he is fat and he is from iran, but he was unbeatable. Your guy on the other hand lost to Kakisvillis and existed the sport with 0 gold medals in the olympics.
Tylko jedno mnie zastanawia,czemu większość komentarzy jest po angielsku,,, ludzie , Polacy co się dzieję,,,to Kołecki,,,ahhh...najlepszy:) He is the best;)
@MultiTrollHunter You clearly are ignorant UK trash. If you really want to see me lift more than 100kg then just look at my channel idiot.. im not even a lifter either. You do know he got pop for roids right around this time right?
he was probably juiced out of his mind here. he explodes backwards like 12 inch when receiving the clean and bounces off the bottom 4 times? and then nails the jerk... dopest lift on you tube.
Aha! I had forgotten that, shame on me! More and more guys are using the squat jerk now, aren't they? It's amazing how low some of them, particularly the Asians, can get with straight arms overhead. It takes unbelieveable trunk flexibility to do that. I'm dating myself here, but the first guy I saw do it at the elite, international level was Sots, from USSR, way back in the '70's. I think he was a middle heavy (90 kg) or first heavy (100 kg).
He was never the same after his back problems. I've wondered if moving up a weightclass and adding a little bulk might have prevented some of his problems. He's a lot like Taner Sagir, not a big squat and has to absolutely fly under the weights due to being much taller than most of his competitors. Anyway, this was a hell of a lift.
I don't know Sagir's actual squat numbers, I'm just judging basing it on the fact that he has great speed and timing, but he still typically struggles to stand up with max cleans only to nail the jerk like it's nothing (very Kolecki like). I've also seen him dump a few cleans. It just seems like he uses his speed and explosiveness to make up for bad squatting leverages, kind of the opposite of a lot of shorter, stockier lifters that can squat a house but struggle with their jerks.
Sagir is 5'7" and 170lbs (pretty slim for a world/ Olympic Champion/Record holder). I don't know if he is jerking weights he fails to Squat (like Kolecki), but you are definitely right about his speed and explosiveness. I hope Kolecki get's that gold medal someday and Sagir should move up to the 85s and duke it out with Yufkin if he's not permanently injured.
Of course it's not bad, but it is low relative to his C&J compared to others in his weight class. If you check out the training hall tapes, his teammate Azanidze easily outdoes Kolecki in the back squat despite competing in a lower weightclass.
No, that's not bad, just a World Record. You might want to notice that this lift here is a Clean and Jerk in an international competition, not a back squat in some training hall tape.
That is INCREDIBLE. He is very small here compared to now, the speed in that jerk is just ridiculous... Does anyone know when this record was set and if it still stands? Thank you.
Huh? Do you even know what you're talking about? Getting out of the hole from a clean has got nothing to do with whether you do deadstop front squats or not. It's about using the stored tension in you muscle from the fast negative, which you can only really teach by doing cleans.
I guess you are not saying that your local Australian club has got better training ideas than the Polish National Team? Because it sounded like that.
It's not really a question of strength here as far as getting up on a single bounce but whether or not the bar is in the right position. You'll notice when he catches it the bar wasn't quite in the right position for him cause it was coming down on him probably a little sooner than he expected. The bounces are to make minor adjustments to racking. Beautiful lift!
the bouncing is al about the way u skat in training. if u skat with ur hips out to keep ur lower back strong and keep ur hands near ur shouldres to keep ur lats tight, or just keep everything strong and get up and down in a strainght position. he also does it as an ajustment as he caught the weight very low, so at the last bounce he can get tight and skat the bar.
@GermanicPrussian I have no knowledge of such things, his suspension did not last long though. I just like the sport and do what little I can on the platform
agreed...it really is a shame he injured himself. he was never really able to recover fully from it and get his lifts back up to where they were at that time.
And I fear, that all the hype behind his young rival from Kazachstan is well founded - I do not think that Szymon will be able to jerk the gold medal in Beijing.

It was his winning lift at the '92 Barcelona Olympics, IMO one of the greatest high-pressure performances of all time.
In typical Kakhiashvili style, he was lightning fast under the bar to catch, and the power jerk was a thing of beauty.

I didn't say that, nor did I imply that. But, our Olympic weightlifters don't bounce 3-4 times to get out of the hole.
