This is our 27th 2017 WWC training hall video, the full list can be found here: ruclips.net/p/PLtKAdapKmlrP6nfpxruXhE_H44WGDp5E0. We also posted videos of Toshiki individually (ruclips.net/video/uKj4rIdgEe0/видео.html) as well as one with some other male members of the Japanese team (ruclips.net/video/pT8AgT6j8mc/видео.html).
We still have several 2017 WWC videos to post although the list is growing pretty short. We should be done before the 2018 WWC though!

Yagi is so gentle with the weights it's so cute

[@Auroral3orealis]

Japan's team is always such a pleasure to watch!

[@jasonthai5826]

Amazing technique. Andoh is one of my favorite female 58s.

[@matt2socal]

Mikiko Andoh is the reason I started watching weightlifting. 🇯🇵🥰💕💘

[@shogo4908]

八木かなえ選手可愛いぃぃ

[@Bobbydoes]

5:10 what are those?!

[@seph9980]

mikiko andoh 💕

[@phaetonevl]

those white/red asics colorways look really good. also, what the heck are those shoes Andoh was wearing?

[@JammaKid123]

Love how Andoh has a different pair of shoes for the snatch and C+J.

[@christianwijaya6906]

You can find the Answers on "We lift Weights" Channel 👍🏋‍♂

[@avocado6623]

The girl with the blue asics is so gentle with the weight. lol

[@ejay52]

WHAT ARE THOSE!?

[@dickpiano1802]

Welcome to Japan

[@McMeatBag]

What is with team Japan's funky shoes? I've never seen them before.

[@AfferbeckBeats]

Most of them wear custom ordered Asics. Not sure if they buy them out of national pride or if they get a pair for being on the national team, but they are really expensive. Quite a few others wear Romaleos 2 or 3. Not sure why Andoh wears those weird custom shoes, perhaps she has a sponsorship with whoever makes them.

[@avocado6623]

They are ugly as shit though.

[@misterf7739]

What are Andoh's shoes?

[@MrFrancistower]

Pls, the title of music intro

[@hookgrip]

Pls, the reading of the description

[@henrichrajnoha7649]

👍

[@RebuSSSS]

what? SBD in Weightlifting? :O

[@hookgrip]

there's a surprising number of people who wear them, especially over the last few years. rehband is declining in WLing market share for neoprene while SBD, Eleiko, others (HG included), etc have been increasing. i think rehband is more focused on the general S&C market plus the CrossFit market (although I did notice they were not a 2018 CFG sponsor) because those markets are orders of magnitude bigger than WLing.

[@timcurrie202]

they wore ROCK Tape knee sleeves - at least each competitor was given a pair (they just said 'crossfit' on them ). I did notice a lot of inside out rehabands - which is not a surprise because I have tried them all and they are still my favorite.

[@hookgrip]

oh i guess rocktape outbid rehband this year

[@lordkubikum]

Womens? Is that gramatically correct? I ask because i'm english is not my main language

[@caiogomes4]

lordkubikum women's team

[@hookgrip]

Maybe I don't understand grammar either but there is not a possession aspect to this title. If it was "Japan's Womens Team" then yea Japan would have an apostrophe after it. And it's also not a contraction (ie, "Japan Women Is Team" or "Japan Women Has Team"). So if there's no possession and no contraction, I was always told in school to not use an apostrophe. But I could be wrong, it's been many years since this was taught to me.

[@lordkubikum]

hookgrip yea I don't know either It just sounded strange to read womens for some reason.

[@hookgrip]

I'd love to know if I'm wrong. I don't know if I'm right or wrong but what I remember from school tells me there's no apostrophe here. Anyone who knows for sure and can explain why, please chime in.

[@psychobastard396]

hookgrip i may be wrong as well, but in this context, there is a possessive. This is the team OF the women. Same case for something like men's soccer. Or men's warehouse lol.

[@QuickStrikes84]

Is that a Thai coach they got? Wouldn't surprise me, Thai women are crushin it in weightlifting right now.

[@hookgrip]

I don’t remember a Thai coach on their team. Which timestamp?

[@manekapuligandla6219]

That's Ayumi Kamiya. She's represented Japan a several times in the 75/76 classes in international comps. Pretty sure she's half Black, half Japanese.

[@rg-pq1kb]

I could listen to kamiya coach all day... that woman casually steals the show
