150kg Snatch @ 96.5kg - No straps

[xJDKx]

How is he that ripped at 96.5kg? Holy shit.

[htothejay]

beast! how heigh is he?

[BROZKNOWS]

@htothejay 5-8

[BDFPA]

@BROZKNOWS 5'8? Jesus Christ no wonder he is so strong. Do you have anyone who is a good 6'2, or 6'3 and is of a similar bodyweight and strength? That's what truly irritates me, because these guys have it so much easier than taller guys due to their much shorter limbs.

[BROZKNOWS]

@BDFPA Im 6'3 and average, however there are many great lifters our height.

[Maddolis]

@BDFPA In Strongman and Powerlifting plenty of the beasts nowadays certainly go over 6'0. Misha Koklyaev is also an excellent Oly lifter (Oly, Strongman, Powerlifting) that's at least 6'3.

[BROZKNOWS]

@BoogleC he's natural, and been the same weight for over 3 years. He just turned 21 so he is beginning to mature as well.

[BoogleC]

@BROZKNOWS Thanks, I guess that's my fault for 'assuming' his weight - can't believe his age - i'm sure he's got much more natural strength to come through if he's only 21. GJ

[etwade]

Awesome lifting. We also need more back squat videos from Rob!

[zbecker6]

Rob's is looking strong, is he competing in the LV open? Also to add to the other comments he is also looking like he's carrying alot of muscle mass, what BB have you had him do to build bulk?

p.s. please don't say it will be on the new website, we've been waiting for years for it to go live, when can we expect that to happen by the way.

Thanks

[TheRisingCG]

when i grow up i wanna be Rob Adell.

[foxilicouse]

if you ripped off his shirt youd see a superman suit would appear

[mattiussi11]

This video should be called 150kg snatch at 96.5kg - No Straps, No problem

[TreeSmoke1999]

Rob looks like the most athletic guy at Average Broz, olympics 2016!

[BROZKNOWS]

@TreeSmoke1999 Looks can be deceiving . If that was the case, Ronnie Coleman should be able to CJ 600+

[TreeSmoke1999]

@BROZKNOWS lol Ronnie Coleman looks like a giant mass in the solar system, very slow and probably not flexible enough for the o-lifts.

[LayEmOut60]

@BROZKNOWS Your comment just makes me curious, but who would you call the most "athletic" at your gym? Obviously depends on your definition of athletic, but in general who would you say is?

[BROZKNOWS]

@LayEmOut60 The best athlete would have to be the one with the most gold medals. I suppose the race is still on.

[kpoff5128]

oh shit, looks like someone learned how to snatch!

[kingcharelsyoung29]

Must be his warmup lol.

[finglofin]

seems like he has more in the tank, so in my opinion, Rob can make much more damage at international level than Pat, Pat had bad luck, he has to face salimi and the iranian is younger than him

[COOPZILON]

incredible physique



[Mrsirflexalotta]

very flexible for the amount of muscle mass

[sdfefde]

@Mrsirflexalotta coleman can do splits easily

[shiznick2]

theres going to be some big battles ahead.. jon had a big snatch yesterday. most exciting class in the US for sure

[yatinshams]

LIKE A BOSSS!!!! he is truly impressive and getting better by the day...

[ArtemPowerLift]

his arms become look much bigger

[kpoff5128]

LIGHT WEIGHT BABY

[brands1]

whats made rob start jumping his feet?

[BROZKNOWS]

@brands1 because he finally learned how to snatch

[flyingikarus]

@BROZKNOWS epic comment is epic xD

[NorwegianZin]

damn

[taryujiai]

Fantastic.

[magicapricot]

do all your athletes use the hook grip?

[BROZKNOWS]

@magicapricot yes. It's common practice world wide in the classic lifts.

[magicapricot]

@BROZKNOWS ok thanks

[Smurfkiller878]

Can you explain how you guys train for squats? Do you guys max out everyday? Followed by double's, triples, etc? I am curious to know because I started squatting everyday now, but not so sure exactly if I am training right.

[jaycuda12]

I may be wrong but it seems like Rob has way bigger tris/arms in general than most Olympic lifters. Is he also focusing on bench press or is it from before he focused on Oly?

[BlackGT2RS]

Coach Broz, no recent videos of yourself? I know your more concerned with having your students shine but how bout it? I think the last was the 145kg snatch 7+ months ago.

[BROZKNOWS]

@BlackGT2RS ahh, maybe when I feel like I do something "tube" worthy.

[hzlwdcntrlftbll]

rob is the strongest "looking" american oly lifter I have seen

[BROZKNOWS]

@hzlwdcntrlftbll and soon he should be the strongest 94kg American ever.

[onepiecemarco]

did you have him start jumping in his snatches?

[BROZKNOWS]

@onepiecemarco yes- 3 years ago

[765mladen]

does rob do any additional bodybuilding exercises? just curious because he looks like he is doing some other ex. as well.

[aminoacids13]

looks easy! he has very muscular arms and delts for a weightlifter btw

[LesFayes]

why are you always just posting warm up lifts? ;)

[anthraxale]

robnator!!!!

[maxiflo]

How tall is he?

[UofO08]

When's Rob gonna start Bodybuilding?



[BROZKNOWS]

@UofO08 start?

[UofO08]

@BROZKNOWS ok, when is Rob's first Bodybuilding show? guy is ripped!

[MicrophoneAssassin13]

wow... no big deal on that one. Looked like he just wanted to lift big.

[chrischea85]

Nice lift. Good work Broz. Rob and Jared looking super strong atm. Any vids of Pat, Ian or Billy soon to be uploaded?

[BROZKNOWS]

@chrischea85 Ian and Billy are no longer part of my team. Pat is getting daily therapy and should be healthy soon. 

[uggy12345]

@BROZKNOWS *see pat snatch 500 and c+j 600! stupid typo lol

[canelifter111]

@BROZKNOWS whyd they leave?

[canelifter111]

he going to trials?

[VastChoirs]

Looked effortless. He'll be the best 94kg lifter in the country very soon I imagine.

[snatch147at85]

Milestone reached. Congrats. Coach, the ratio of strap lifts to non strap lifts? I think I am doing it wrong.....mine is 8:2.

[magicapricot]

i would consider this "with straps" because he is a fine, strapping young man

[321snbify]

STACKED

[kerwinmatt]

this guy should have been casted for the captain america role...

[TibetanAlkmist]

Rob's a mutated shark in human form.

[Sully1111]

When did Rob turn 21??

[BROZKNOWS]

@Sully1111 last weekend. 

[alsetalokin]

Is there any reading material you would recommend for someone interested in pursuing power lifting but doesn't have the funds to hire a trainer?

[churde]

he is 96 kilo because he isnt that tall. also if you cant deadlift 150kg then do you even lift?/

[eowdaoc]

I think pre-pulls really help for some reason, rather than starting cold. Idk. I don't know enough about exercise physiology to explain any further. Whenever I deadlift my first rep always feels the heaviest, then after that it's like my CNS becomes more familiar with it and I can put out more reps that feel easier than my first.

[etwade]

@eowdaoc Salimi does this.

[JNorthKilla94]

those 94 and 105's better be dialed in

[MORETHANOVERGROWN]

that was too easy!

[Kirky1909]

Great form!! Loving your work man.

[raxq]

damn he makes it look 150 lbs.. Great athlete!

[fyckthissht]

BEAST STRENGTH

broz what you recommend for people who still want to lift but have disc injuries?

[Maveric78]

The Emperor's got no clothes...

[tombennettpiano]

how in gods name is he only 96.5 kg...he's huge! 

[EndlersaurusRex]

@tombennettpiano He's like 5'8, so he looks bigger than a taller person at that weight would

[tombennettpiano]

@EndlersaurusRex I know...i was joking more than anything. I wish I could be that lean and strong. He's a freak!

[natarem]

doing the salimi prepull eh? nice snatch

[BROZKNOWS]

@natarem Yeah, not sure why but he started it in both the S and CJ.

[LexingtonLanePlummer]

@BROZKNOWS You think Salimi is going to go beyond Krastaev in the snatch lift?

[BROZKNOWS]

@LexingtonLanePlummer yes

[tombennettpiano]

@BROZKNOWS He can clean and jerk 260...he was mentally fried at the worlds. I bet he does 215/260 at the Olympics.

[BROZKNOWS]

@tombennettpiano Iran had mentioned that they were going to boycott the games, due to the logo for the games resembling the word "zion".

[tombennettpiano]

@BROZKNOWS I hope you're kidding...that would be a shame. Their whole team is really freaking good! Two top flight supers and a bunch of great light lifters. I think they pulled in three golds and two silvers and a bronze (?) at the worlds. They're right there with the chinese and the russian. Akaev is my hero. I love that guy. he's a monster at 105kg.

[npacebg]

@BROZKNOWS I figure the prepull lets them feel the weight better so that they don't over- or undershoot in terms of power. When I saw it at the worlds I thought "Damn, why did no one think of this before?"

[BROZKNOWS]

@npacebg people have. Ive seen lifters 50+ yrs ago do it.

[nawdik]

sick snatch..rob is looking jacked too..would put some bodybuilders out there to shame

[ivanisavich]

Fucking hell I can barely deadlift that, and there he is throwing it over his head.

[clarence0]

omg that was easy

[ChipmunkJLD]

now that's a snatch

[bustagh0st]

dayum he made that look easy.
