Zhan Xugang

[VastChoirs]

Notice he's much less "buff" compared to other lifts near his class (Shi Zhiyong, Zhang Gouzeng, Li Hongli, Liao Hui). I think he must have been training differently from the other chinese lifters and doing less hypertrophy/pulls/presses and more heavy singles in the lifts.

@VastChoirs not necessarily true ..naim was actually looking v buff when he was with the bulgarian team..these were ppl who did just singles

this guy probably didnt have proper diet or maybe lesser training

@paulthecoolest I believe it also depends on the body structure and height. Let's say if you are taller and have bigger bones, then obviously you can't put as much muscle on as someone in the same weight class that's 15cm shorter.

@ChinaNite89 that cud be some what true. the bone size as such isn't really that varied from person to person ..provided we keep the height const.. The true properties lifters would want to have is the density in bone structure and the shape so that bio mechanically he can put on more weight and have less lifting distance for ex. This is why Naim excelled so much he had relatively small legs hence the range of motion was much shorter in the lifting up potion
