Chinese Olympic Trials-69kg Class (snatch)

[ahmednabil]

why dont the oly directors grow up and stop using the silly close up slow motion

[MrPeanutBailey]

they.....they are so fast

[farkar78]

i like his strategy, and id say the chinese are the best weightlifters in the lightweight class

[cubencis]

wtf happened to zhang guzheng in this performance?

[xPalet5796x]

Germans are the way to go

[Rehel34]

If your going by purely per person in country Bulgarians are by far the best weightlifters in the world, speaking solely of men.

[RSixBoy]

@Rehel34 That may be, and while I admire ivan stoitsov, many bulgarian athletes have been tested and found positive for steroid use

[Rehel34]

@RSixBoy Every successful Olympic weightlifter are. If you don't think so, it's quite ignorant. The Chinese train 3 times a day everyday for 1.5 hours each session. Not able to do that with the help of drugs.

[vrabel300]

holy cow zhang is the man!

[coppersreno]

look at the pull under the bar in slow mo, these guys are freak.

[trance4mation]

godd i so wanna see the 62kg guys in action in these trials, zhang jie, zhang xiangxiang,

[sherwin3]

Zhang's recovery from that near-miss was ANIMAL!!

[L4miSz]

amazing chinese weightlifters

[Aliks96]

Anybody knows what shi Zhiyong's personal best in Snatch and C&J is?

[Sarge343]

His best snatch in competition is 153, don't know about the C&J though

[Aliks96]

The National Weightliting team of women are the best Chinese Ever!

[Cubu47]

the latest generation of Chinese weightlifters are outstanding

[Aliks96]

The chinese are the best weightlifters!

Agree?

[sr19]

russians are pretty good

[TheChoptank]

@sr19 I figure the Russians and the Chinese are the two best teams.

[fomiz]

Aliks96, the should be. They have the largest population in the world.

[Tibetansareniggers]

There are another billion people in the World-- India. How come they don't even have half as many gold medals as China?

[fomiz]

because indians focus on cricket and bollywood

[Tibetansareniggers]

lol well said.

[fomiz]

;-)

[yongpack0]

@Tibetansareniggers because their culture may not embrace the same sports or ideas China's does DUH

[powerstyle1]

especially in lower weight categories

[DelornificatioN]

@Aliks96 Bulgarians, brother. Bulgarians are.

[Kavehisftw]

@DelornificatioN Iranians are brother.

[PizzaCakeSteak]

@Kavehisftw Iranians are best at super heavy weight

[Odolek94]

@Aliks96

No.



[BboyArmo]

@Aliks96 Chinese women? yes

[mikeyburger1]

nice snatch pull by zhang there :P!!

[chris7687]

Zhang Guozheng failed to total during these trials, period. There were no "political", reasons.

[Sarge343]

Do you have the 62kg class trials? I'd love to see that!

[kevino999]

zhang didnt get in i noticed in the olympics-i found out why. not just 4 probs his not so good lifts in the olympic trials

but for 'POLITICIAL' reasons

mystery?

[kirksman]

Zhang Guozheng's right arm cannot straighten completely. He didn't press it actually, that's just the way his arm is.

[Sarge343]

Awesome video man, thanks a lot for putting it out. Looks like Zhang was having some problems with his right elbow on his 2nd lift. Too bad he wasn't in Beijing, I was hoping to see him lift.

[dfreezy540]

I'm surprised he got three white lights for that lift, it wasn't even really close
