  • @morganmueller16 I'm fairly certain Louis Abele is the one lifter wearing the dark lifting costume

    Back in those days, very few weightlifters did squats. This is why very few if any manage to drop into a deep front squat and all of them are very wobbly recovering. Also dont forget that this has been shot with very low frame rate and then sped up making it look a lot more jerky.

  • no one of them could keep the balance :D Still awesome  footage :)

  • Clean and Jerk

  • What kinds of lifts are these?! Wow - thanks for posting this!

  • OMG!! My father told me about his older cousin Steve coming over doing great feets. I wonder if this is that Steve?
