Anatomy of a Weightlifter
*talks about mental strength*
"Also big legs, short arms, and long back are handy"
*describes proper form the rest of the video*
None of the video was about form. They just gave the basic outline of the technique.
RIP Naim. you were the greatest.
weightlifting is so much technique. If you display poor technique it is 20 times harder to lift the weight
Harrison Sloan true
so true. 20 kg only just started feeling like 20kg in the snatch lol. 20kg used to feel like 60kg.
Oh you mean like Crossfit?
Harrison Sloan
In other news the sky is blue. Thanks Captain Obvious.

"Anatomy of a Weightlifter" by a team that hasn't won a medal in the sport in almost 70 years.
TheRealLaker very true team GB is a terrible representation of Olympic weightlifting. I don't wanna hear these nobodies give me Klokiv, Dimmas or Torikhty.
TheRealLaker sorry, you have got that slightly wrong, you missed out a zero. lol. last UK weightlifting champion was in 1489, but no one was there to see it.
matthias steiner?
TheRealLaker, lmao
There are only a few countries in the world which have actual weightlifting academies. Most of the Eastern European countries as well as China, Iran, Japan, Korea, Colombia, Cuba, etc. But Klokov has said how there will soon be very successful lifters from the US and UK because of how many people are eager to learn about the sport and participate.
Her eyes are beautiful. Zoe Smith
Yup the short legs and long torso are noticeable in almost these weightlifters. Might I add bow-legged as well
I'm biw legged and it's a disadvantage
2:08 Naim
how can i get into olympic weightlifting ?
have you done a si ilar video for gymnastics?
Could've chosen a better team. China, Iran, Russia etc...
Jojo jlc I agree. They also chose a Brit for the rugby 7s episode. Brits are far the first that comes to mind when an ideal rugby player is discussed. Try Fiji!
@Andy Butler ahem, Sonny Webster 2016 Olympics
Most of the weight lifters look short or is it just me?
Anatomy of Olympic weight lifter
Om Yun Chol is one of the like 2 people in the world to get triple body weight clean and jerk, and hes UNDER 5 feet.
Christine Chon except the heavy weight classes
The heavy weights are also "small" for their weight. At 150kg you'd expect someone to be over 6'4" like most Strongmen, but they're all in the 6'-6'2" range.
But it's also their proportions. With shorter limbs everyone looks dwarfish.
Lucas Freire well at 6ft youd expect some one to be max 90 kg but in weightlifting weight and height can be advantages :p 6ft-6ft 2in is taller than avarage
ZOE SMITH😍
Yeah ;-)
Yes weightlifting
Where are the russian WL in the vid?
chatnik78 They were busying doing steroids.
it says in the title that this was a video done by team gb
@@ixcinematography lmao that's all of the highest level
Omg I know rebbca I was a British weightlifter
Nice try
... ,,Aruli Pillai meensaö
where is rowing!!!!
+davide menta That can be found here ruclips.net/video/Zx-VTQbrtSc/видео.html
i wonder what they can strict press overhead
klokov did about 360-370 at about 250 bodyweight on one of his videos
Serge Redding and Vasily Alexeev have done over 500lbs, but "strict" is tricky to judge, and the lift was eventually removed from the sport.
well strict press and the jerk don't really correlate that well. it would depend from lifter to lifter. Some lifters will rarely train with strict presses while others will incorporate it a lot. I for one don't use a lot of strict presses. so mine is only around half of what I can jerk.
good vid
Сила на 100%
I love the video, but why only British lifters narrating?
Probably they wanted to film the video in one country!
0:45....Who's she?
Lidia Valentin from Spain. Probably the most popular female weightlifter, at the moment.
wow
I don't get how they decide the winner. do you have to hold it above your head as long as you can?
No, that would be crazy dangerous. A good lift is a good lift; the second the judges say okay, you drop the weight.
The competition is three lifts in the snatch, then three in the clean and jerk. Take the best weight you lifted in each category, and that's your total score.
***** Thank you for explanation!
They just have to show that they have control over the weight.
Two lifts. Snatch and Clean and Jerk. Three goes at each, biggest weight lifted wins.
Zoe Smith is cute 😍
Красавцы.
Naim Süleymanoğlu 🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷

2:39 THAT'S RACIST!
How the girls have a good white eye balls!
the best weight lifters in the world are the Iranians. I think it has something with genetics as Iranian and Russian are very good in wrestling and other power sports as well.
China produces some exceptional weightlifters as well
At higher weight classes. Lower ones are dominated by asians and Eastern Europeans.
Arman Osdinia because they are all short with short arms
I think it is a bit cultural as well. Iran and Russia both have very strong wrestling cultures and weight lifting is popular in both countries.
Arman Osdinia nope, they are pretty strong, i think because of doping, but there technique isn't on the heighest level. Chinese are the best, but also Kazhakstan or Russia are way better. But also a lot of european countrys have a better technique than iran, like Germany, Romania or Georgia.
This Talakhadze guy really destroyed Behad Salimi from Iran.
Women in weightlifting have wide chins, i dont like this type of sport as doping is involved
big legs, good diet, longer back, a metric fuckton of test and tren
good luck passing tests using tren lol
@@muellernikolai8630 ye didn't work out so well for Russia in 2012....
More lower half than rest. Worlds strongest man comps are better. Get Eddie hall for gb
this is more technique based as well as requiring that the athlete be explosive
More lower half than rest. Worlds strongest man comps are better. Get Eddie hall for gb will destroy everyone else
Gregs Mowing strongman and powerlifting are more about raw strength and no doubt the best strongmen and powerlifters all have more raw strength than even the best weightlifters but to be a good weightlifter you need technique, mobility, and explosiveness as well as pure strength. As a powerlifter who recently started weightlifting I can assure you that me simply being strong does not translate into big weightlifting totals
lol I cant see eddie jumping around like a waightlifter ...
...Destroy everyone at what? Eddie Hall is a strongman competitor, so he will do well at that sport. Weightlifters are better at weightlifting...it's pretty simple.
Weightlifters are athletes. Strongmen and powerlifters are not, they are only strong.
I'm sorry but comparing weightlifting and strongman is like comparing Olympic gymnastics and RUclips calisthenics. Weightlifting is the Rolls Royce of athletics in general, and particularly strength sports.
Always interesting when a country ie britain with zero history in a sport get competitors / coaches to analyse.....makes no sense ......
