14:31 Tbh this is a lose-lose situation for China. Send either Shi Zhiyong or Li Dayin and risk being rahimogged by a world record clean and jerk, or send Tian Tao and risk a bombout. Only Li Fabin and Liu Huanhua are "safe" in terms of their olympic spots. Also coincidentally (or perhaps not) the two split jerkers 🙃
It definitely wasn’t a technical masterpiece if you compare it to the likes of someone like tian in the clean but it was definitely unreal how quick he stood up from it
@@carpetgymolylifting exactly! Massive gap formed after the knees so he had to shift everything forward and came onto his toes heaps early. I don’t know if he’s cleaned that before but he’s strong as a bull and mad aggressive under the bar so I have no doubt he’ll be right in the mix at Paris if he can snatch in that 175-180 area to keep him close enough to nassar and dayin if he ends up Chinas 3rd male that they send
@@jermaineayivoh8263I agree! Karlos is one of those lifters who have that raw athleticism and explosive power behind them so as long as he stands up a clean he’s likely to jerk it, Liu huanhua is similar in that aspect too
Thor and Bobby Thompson are both training for the Arnold's Strongman Classic on 1st and 2nd March. Will be interesting to see how high they actually go on the day, but it's the event they're both best at. AFAIK, I think it'll be livestreamed on Rogue's RUclips channel if you wanna include it in the following news show :)
Bozhidar has very sad story and emotional because he won the title on his brother's birthday, who passed away. His family is extremly poor and found money the last minute to pay their electric bill so they can watch him on the TV..
Bobby Thompson is training for the Shaw Classic which this year includes a max Raw deadlift.. no suits and no figure 8 straps, so we might get to see footage of others training for it. I think he's done 447kg DL and 476 in the hummer DL. Big Loz trains him.
@@sikastrength Drug use was the LEAST problematic part of the Hurricanes at their peak. Don't forget about the arrests, the academic fraud and NCAA penalties, the on-field brawls with other teams, players legit murdering their own teammates (see Brian Pata). The Canes were trouble for themselves and everyone else.
Deadlift suits typically add anywhere between 10kg-30kg, depending on how bad your deadlift leverages are. The worse your leverages are the more you get out of it, typically. It gives me 20kg.
Lee Sangyeon is moving up to the 73s, so insane volume now lmfao. Idk wtf he's doing really, but his numbers are gonna have to go up to even have a whiff of a medal in Paris.
If I ever bench 250 I'll say that's a solid squat day. And, Thathugeasianguy is John's former training buddy and current friend, and he doesn't get enough credit the guys a beast.
I understand why the Americans are in the Europeans (travel dangers) but what I don’t understand is why a continental champs would be hosted in a place that’s being considered that dangerous. Can anyone explain/provide context for me?

Nino's 222kg clean was unreal, a technical masterpiece. But Karlos is just too strong
It definitely wasn’t a technical masterpiece if you compare it to the likes of someone like tian in the clean but it was definitely unreal how quick he stood up from it
@clintiacuone1703 there was ALOT of room between him and the barbell...far from perfect but that's just because it's max effort

Nino seems to be a noticeably stronger cleaner than Nasar, but Nasar seems to be a noticeably stronger split jerker than Nino.

Awhhhh very interesting! We'll defintely cover the results
@@sikastrength should be a great comp! Arguably the most stacked strongman lineup ever, as 5 of the 12(?) athletes have won World's Strongest Man
Bozhidar has very sad story and emotional because he won the title on his brother's birthday, who passed away. His family is extremly poor and found money the last minute to pay their electric bill so they can watch him on the TV..
Thor was roughly 189 when he pulled that 454kg, but is now around 191kg again. When he did 501kg, he was about 207kg
207 is insane!

Can they use normal straps is it raw natty grip?
they can use normal straps, but you're not allowed to have had a strapadictomy within the last 12 months. @@sikastrength
Bulgaria is like the Miami Hurricanes of weightlifting. The legends are awesome we will see if they can bring it back to the glory days.
did the hurricanes rail a lot of drugs?!

very good content, as always !
Thank you!
The part on lee sang cracked me up. The translations on his bios dont always make sense so its hard to know what he meant
Glad you appreciated the Asaad 252, commented on the insanity of the speed of the clean on last week’s show 😂
could see 260+
Very nice barbell collage in the thumbnail :)
Nah Lee sang doing 19 is him telling us it's the start of his block. He judt finished the bodybuilding faze and it's time to peak for 195
Lee Sangyeon is moving up to the 73s, so insane volume now lmfao. Idk wtf he's doing really, but his numbers are gonna have to go up to even have a whiff of a medal in Paris.
Thats crazy!
John hits rpe10 singles even very close to his competition, its not just an 8 weeks out thing.
valessa also makes throwing shoes so thats why they use them probably
awh yes!
Also interesting lift- Don Opeloge from Samoa (-102) muscle snatched 137
Wtf link?
missed that!

yeah those squats were crazy!
Him, John and gingercules all train together when they're all in california I think. John's currently in wisconsin though so isn't training with them
BJStone can do an impressive back flip
no way!

It is completely peaceful. Not dangerous at all. Paris is more dangerous
I guess thats just politics, but idk

Don't try make sense of the IWF
When your foreign policy with the country is to "make the economy scream" but you forgot your earplugs.
Karlos declared his last attempt because he had cramp on his leg and it is visible after his 215 lift when he is going to his coaches.
