That's only the superheavyweight division. Have you ever seen the lower weights? Most of the athletes have among the lowest body fat percentages on average of any sport.

Someone said something about powerlifting. I think the name powerlifting is misleading. Powerlifting tests strength, not power. No one deadlifts, squats, or benches with as much explosion power as an olympic lift. Olympic lifts are the true measure of power, which is why they are used in so many sports training programs.

chemerkin's first jerk looked pretty pressed out...

[RandomStevie]

Good God, Chemerkin has the flexibility of an elephant.

@wilwn yes, seen 3 red lights for less than that, he should have got at lest ONE red light there...

[DeadbeatXT]

@skirts365

i was being sarcastic...

[skirts365]

@tedbratton Not strong enough? He could crush any pro baller like a box of corn flakes. I saw footballers struggle in the old Super Stars to jerk under 300lbs off racks. Reza would sneeze to put that weight up.

He is 6'1 or 185 cm and was about 133 in this video...and yes he was quite a specimen, physically and athletically...
