[maxiflo]

[captainjosue]

@tom88cba It's Angel Guenchev. 1988 gold medal winner

[brands1]

who is performing the snatch at :50 ?

[zacharyninja1]

@brands1 youd think it was Sagir so quick he is but its not.

[cheraldon]

The guy who squatted 300 x 2 is Stefan Botev - two times World Champion in the + 110 kg category - behind him sitting on the bench you can see Antonio Krastev - another legendary lifter

[cheraldon]

300 kg x 2 - the squat - insane

[dbarnett87]

[onepounch]

@diggernator82 who is it?

[weightliftingisgreat]

The description says 'the Secret Bulgarian Training video'. It can't be all that 'secret' if its on youtube and its available to buy.

[robtakano]

@weightliftingisgreat The training was done in a secret location so as to avoid WADA. It was videoed by a private party and I was able to acquire it.

[cannibal888]

@robtakano Well, the WADA was established in 1999, so it didn't exist in 1988... but I understand that you meant the drug agency of the time :)

[Pokarface7]

@robtakano You do realize they sell this dvd on takanoathletics(dot)com right? Wait a minute, by looking at your username I wonder, "are you the owner of takano athletics?"

[nakata607]

@weightliftingisgreat lol it was top secret! to that moment! It was covered by the Bulgarian National Security (something like KGB or CIA, but bulgarian service), sounds in Bulgarian DS. So DS end in '89 but the cases were still top secret, until today, with partial declassification few times in last years.

[endorphine99]

damn power and poise.  Lol @ that guys highwaters

[robtakano]

Anyone wishing to know the lifts on the full length video can see them at the Takano Athletics website on the blog page. Check the December 2009 file, and go to the December 8 blog. Enjoy!
