As someone with family from Kazakhstan, can confirm we all start our tuesdays with a 245kg clean and squat jerk. On a side note I love the commentary on these videos! Keep it up Sikastan
That ‘catch me if you can’ reference! The empty bottles left me with tears from laughing! You guys hit the sweet spot for making our serious sport fun with comedy!
Oh, note about something you said about jerks: Florida high-school weightlifting was traditionally Bench + Clean & Jerk. They just introduced Snatch as a separate event (but total is still bench + C&J). We always trained Cleans on Tuesdays and Jerks on Wednesdays. *Never* trained them together until week before and of competition to practice our openers. Got really good results training them separately.
Interestingly for Kazakhstan and powerlifting, Boris Sheiko did his initial coaching powerlifting in Kazakhstan starting in 1991 after the breakup of the USSR, being a former weightlifting coach in the USSR days, and only moved to Russia in 1997. So in his first few years all of his athletes were Kazakhs, most notably Alexey Sivokon.
The movie is called "Catch me if you can" and fun personal fact about that movie: they filmed the laundromat scene at the laundromat down my street where I grew up in NY. I waited outside of it with a huge crowd after school to see Tom Hanks show up, wave at the crowd, and walk into the laundromat to film the scene. 🤙🤙
The commentary on these videos is fking great! Solid entertainment! And I think the guys shirt says “I love you for god” which makes no sense. But Ilya speed under the bar on those block snatches was BONKERS! So fast! And he went for that 190 what five times?! How is that possible?! Ohhhhhhhh yes drugs haha! Even funnier was when Gurph said everyone in the hall had been popped. But for real great video I love watching these with you guys.
Would the main reason he got popped to do with the Kazakhs not making their payments etc to the IWF? In all seriousness, or would he just have used to close to competition
if ye are looking to come to Greece, Thodoris Iakovidis is connected to my local crossfit gym. He trains with Panathinaikos weightlifting club. I'd be interested in a lifting workshop meself
Fun fact: I showed the video at the start to my sisters and said it was me. Had them fooled until they took a second look 😂 (I used to look like Ilya at the time.)
So we know drugs work. That seems to be a point made by both sides over and over ad nauseam. Why are drugs bad again? Level playing field doesn't exist. You would think we would hear more stories about how drugs destroy peoples lives but we just hear how it made someone break a world record. That kinda seems like it supports the argument for drugs.

On wednesdays in kazakhstan they do active recovery and sit in saunas. Dont know why you guys keep mentioning drugs.

the goat, love to see he's having so much fun in training
40 minutes episode. I think this longer format fits you guys, with the last couple of videos the time just flew by.

This video saved my evening
haha “Kazakh Ross Edgley” is too accurate, keep up the craic lads 😂
In the polish training hall at the other side there are jerk blocks and a competition platform 👍🏼
6:59 😂
Love the day in Kazakhstan videos
This video is pure gold. Thx guys
Only Ilya can make a 190kg snatch exciting and suspenseful to watch!
Please do more commentaries 🎉
The first training hall is giving me traumatic flashbacks of 9am PE lessons 👁👄👁

This goes so hard
Much love
Another weightlifting comp reaction would be dope
Bob Mortimer is looking strong these days.
Sika hypertrophy!
Also now i know on what day to do my snatch pulls
First video of Illia squating 160 kg is from Spała not Opole😉
On the topic of the camp - yes!
21:32 Catch Me If You Can lol
Nothing quite like turinabol taco Tuesdays
Would very much like a training camp
Ladies, find a man that watches you like Gurph watches Ilya.
24:40 - Time of the Season - Zombies
The first training hall is the same one that Clarence cleaned 200 in, no?
“The fridgedness”
I love the casual homoeroticism in your descriptions.
Would love the training camp
Oh the guy with the infamous Little Sack. 🤣
Great video excellent content! What year are these videos from? Is this some type of monumental comeback of Ilya?
I’m here to say I would love to come to the training camp
Get 9 of your friends on board and send us an email 😎
Love this
Catch me if you can is the name of the movie
Would the main reason he got popped to do with the Kazakhs not making their payments etc to the IWF? In all seriousness, or would he just have used to close to competition
Idk the text on the shirt seems to me as "I love you for goo" or "I love you for god" and neither of it makes sense
31:49 “Feckin eejit” propa Irish right there
25:09 do you guys have a program for just improving the jerk?
Can you do a video on iron loo
There are powerlifters in Kazakhstan. I could think of at least one IPF world champion. Former champion, I guess. Tested positive bc ofc he did.
This is Spała not Opole. I know because I actually come from Opole. Used to train there.
Isn't Tuesday international Ilya Ilyin day?
when will the wed of kaz Ilyia be made?
would love to watch it
I'd be keen on that training camp,
if ye are looking to come to Greece, Thodoris Iakovidis is connected to my local crossfit gym. He trains with Panathinaikos weightlifting club. I'd be interested in a lifting workshop meself
Never been so early to a video.
Praise the algo
I’m more concerned about what happens on Sunday’s in Kazakhstan knowing Ilya 🥴
15:42 “I love you for good”?
Yeah that’s what I saw
Whats Ilyas wingspan?
Yo boys maybe a look at Kevin Oak could
Be of interest, world record holder in the raw squat 110kg category
I believe the man's shirt says "I'll love you for good", but idk
"a kinda strong crossfit dad" hahahahahaha, amazing
fucking phenomenal content
Fun fact: I showed the video at the start to my sisters and said it was me. Had them fooled until they took a second look 😂 (I used to look like Ilya at the time.)
ilya does hit every second rep. failing this, he could do WSM.
Fitz hanging the head down in disgust about being called a Sports Psychiatrist
i personally do my snatch pulls on monday, tuesday, wednsday, thursday, friday, and saturday. i take them really fuckin seriously
Please do a training camp, I guess like all the fitness influencers do but at least you’ll learn something from yours 😂
I would go to that. Event better, have one on the island boys
That's hilarious))
