Wish I could perform oly lifts but no gym, sadly.

What numbers would be considered natty for the 69kg category? they all seem huge since they roid

Lads how do I marry Lidia Valentin?

>>38295439
>what lifts would be considered natty
maybe 100kg at most for C&J, 70kg for snatch

>>38295507
woah woah woah, hold your horses big guy

90 c+j, 65 snatch AT MOST. any more is not natty

One of the commentators said the knurling on the bar isn't very sharp. Aren't they using Eleiko equipment for this comp?

>>38295534

>>38295970
is it because the eleiko factory got blown up

>>38296113
No. Sponsorship of equipment has a bidding process. And the fire only affected the stage and manufacturing facilities for industrial machines and trucks. The barbell manufacturing facility was safe.

Do each lifter get his own coach or is it one coach per country?

>>38296203

Its silly politics. They even had to cover rehband and eleiko brands on their equipment with tape.

>>38295467
You can't because she is going to marry ME and I'm stronger than you

do female weightlifters inadvertently do kegels when performing the lifts/ doing the valsalva maneuver?

so they'd be super tight r-right??

What the actual fuck

so these competitions can be won and lost based on a question of literal grams
like the difference between Apti and Zielinski in London was literally 100g.
And all the hair on the human head collectively weighs about 200g. Some sources even report hair weight as being a kilo or more.
So why
in the name of fuck
are these cunts not all bald? And some of them are even bearded? I'm sure some of the Chinese lifters have had their kidneys removed to pack more muscle into their bodyweight, but what's the deal with all the hair?

>>38297481
you're wrong

>>38296613

No.

fuark i wana get back to liftan

rip lu so sad :'(

>>38299017
me on the left

So I thought about taking this weightlifting course for 100€, but it starts in October
What kind of routine/exercises I should do at a normal gym meanwhile?

>>38297419

How come we don't see weightlifters coming from first world countries with arguably better infrastructure and sports investment?

>>38297498

Who was lighter? Surely it should go to them.

That Iranian guy did have a bit of a belly though.

>>38299661
Google says that the Iranian is 84kg and that the Chink is 85kg

>>38299653

Because the investment isn't in oly lifting?

>>38295282

>some faggot shilling his crossfit box during the medal ceremony in the 94kg class edition


What the fuck? What happened?

>>38299661
nah man first guy should get it

second guy had more rest

>>38295519
>>38295507
what about a 85kg guy?

>>38300169
120cj 100 snatch max

>>38299653
because no state sponsored roid programs

>>38300177
Not far off then

I have terrible form, my numbers are 90/70

>>38300266
you're getting close to the natty max
better start sourcing some roids

>>38300281
I'm assuming a guy like Max Lang is roiding?

He's strong as fuck

memes aside, can I really not expect much higher numbers than that without roids?

Most lifters at my oly gym are right around those numbers, I just thought they were noobs.

>>38300324
depends on your genetics are work ethic

my coach thinks steroids only gives you an extra 10-20kgs on your total
i think it's probably closer to 20 on each lift but you could probably get around 330 with years of dedicated, solid training

>>38300324

Realistically, no-one really knows the max. The records from pre-drug eras were just set under conditions too far from today (although they're probably lowballs compared to today, from what little is recorded).

There's also something of a difference in using drugs at the same BW versus using them to go up weight classes. There's an advantage in both but a bigger one in the latter.

>>38299452

>>38299605
Squats

Presses

Rows

>>38297562
Mfw his surname is >ur mum
In Norwegian

>>38300465
squat
bench
cable row
pullups
core

front squat
ohp
lat raises
chinups
core

is this absolute crap?
I usually go to gym every other day or so, rest more if needed

>>38300668
i think everything except cables rows, pendlay rows are better but that's not the reason i dislike them

one of the biggest problems people have when learning the lifts is using their arms instead of their traps and until you've learned how to not use your arms i think the conflicting messages you'll send your brain would hinder more than help

>>38300787
so everything is ok except cable rows?
and I guess I could switch them for pendlays

>>38300859
with what i know now i would suggest

back squats
ohp
pull ups
core

front squats
push press
chin ups
core

>>38300901
no need for rows?

>>38300921
as i said, rows will confuse you since they are an arm based movement (you use your arms to move the weight)

because this is one of the biggest mistakes people make when starting weightlifting you don't want to confuse yourself by picking up the weight from the floor using your arms for 2 months and then all of a sudden you're supposed to be loose and barely picking up the weight at all, the same principle applies to deadlifting
the start position and the movement are totally different to a snatch/ clean in more than just the grip; so you'll be imprinting motor patterns that are counter productive for weightlifting

it's quite possible this won't be an issue for you, but it's just as possible it will and i see new people start all the time and 4/5 of them having problems with using their arms and while this might be the cause; it's still a huge problem for those people and any potential gain you make in 2 months worth of rows (which you'll be making from pull and chin ups anyway) isn't worth maybe making learning the technique harder

>>38300973
thanks, I'll do the routine you posted till the course begins then

>>38297419
>>38299653
Morals.

>>38300973
one more question
should I do 5x5 or 5x3?

>>38301266
depends on what your strength level is at right now, and the exercise

squats can be 5x5 if you're sitll making beginner gains, or 3x5
push press/ ohp 3x5 or 3x3 or 5x3
chin up and pull ups are a bit different and now that i think about it adding dips would be a good idea as well as light tricep work
chin and pull ups at 4x8 same with dips
dumbbell skull crushers with a light weight 4x15 or something around that

it's sort of hard for me to give you a pre-training program without much infomation about you

but i'm going to sleep
if you respond to this post with your lifts and more info, and the thread is still up in the morning, i can give you a bit more insight or maybe someone else will chime in with their opninion

>>38301292
I'm still pretty much a beginner, I've been going to the gym just to do something physical
5'8/145lbs
haven't tried max weights on anything really
5x5 squat ~150
5x5 ohp ~70
chin-ups I can do +10
pull-ups 4-7 depends on the day
dips I haven't tried in ages, but I guess I could get them up to 8 in few weeks

It's a sport that works well with monolithic state-run sports programs. Many millions of Chinese kids get vetted for weightlifting potential. How many Americans even try Oly weightlifting aside from high school footballs players doing power cleans?

why even live?

>>38304339
aren't you supposed to start it as soon as you're able to walk to have a chance?

>>38304364

younger the better Id say, from what I hear if you're selectedfor some one like chinese team you're taken from your parents and you barely see them while you work your bollocks off, not sure how true that is but I wouldnt be surprised with china

Xiaojin supposedly started at 13 so at my age he already has 10 years experiance

>>38304364

In China they use to scout kids around the age of 8-10. In Eastern Europe the same.

Although you can start as late as 13 or something in case you have an athletic background (Lü for example).

>>38304364
donny shankle says it takes about 12 years to reach your max potential

>>38304339
Do you want to be one of those lifters who trained for 10 years from being a child and still couldnt become a world class weightlifter? For every success, there's probably hundreds of failures.

>>38304405
and what's the max age you see at competitions? around 30?

>>38304432

seems like the oldest olympic lifters top out at around 30ish yeah

>>38304454
so theoretically you could start at the age of 18 and still become a decent lifter?

>>38304473

no clue, dont forget these niggas train full time and have everything paid for, imagine trying to do 8 hours a day job and then coming home and oly lift for 4 hours, just no, if your'e talking amatuer then probably

>>38304432
figueroa won the 62kg as a 33-year old. lu is 31.
while training from a young age allows an individual to have a better chance of reaching maximum potential, the toll of training makes the body age more quickly. as a result, many retire before reaching 28 which is considered to be the physical peak.

>>38304620
>figueroa won the 62kg as a 33-year old
he only won because chen got injured and the korean guy got busted

his total was a few kg higher than the 56kg winner

That's pretty unfortunate. Is has to do with the placement of the bladder compared to the uterus and all right ?

>>38297454
>>38297418
he already secured a bronze medal and tried to get silver but failed.

>>38295507
>>38295439
I would look at Olympic athletes from countries that are no where near competitive.

For example in the 94kg, Kendrick Farris from USA was 50kgs total from Gold place. He was 20kg worse in Snatch, and 30kg worse in the C&J. He's not even close to being competitive.

And there were lifters from Australia and GB that had even smaller lifts than Kendrick Farris. I'd like to think those athletes are natty considering how noncompetitive they are compared to the podium athletes.

What the fuck I hate this sport now.

>>38307398
These athletes probably train all day for 10 years to reach this point. The goals for an ordinary person doing olympic weightlifts are much much lower than what the people at the top do, and I mean way way lower.

>>38307283

The valsalva maneuver puts of a lot of pressure on the female bladder etc. so if they don't want to pee themselves, they have to perform kegels so those muscles don't give out. Usually very, very tight yes.

>he only won because
a common phrase from those who have never competed in any sport. injuries, bad days, bad luck, and etc. are all part of the competition.

>>38309957

Not true at all. But "camp" stuff is true
The best training camps along with other sports like gymnastics are in some centers in Beijing. These selected kids are usually recommended by the local from all cities in China. Coming from their poor area to nice rich Beijing is always their dream

They're treated pretty well but don't have any personal schedule. Maybe all activities and food are already arranged by the coach. They literately spend their entire teenage years with coach. I've talked with many athletes and they consider their coach closer than their father

Even if the kid failed they could still easily get job as coaches in some school. the gold medalist in the other hand is like rock star who's "made it". Millions of cash reward and potential tv and shows. They're super stars in China unlike some athletes are not even well known in US

>>38310089
>It was the 62kg category
close enough
>and China had someone, but he was injured
I figured something like that happened, China not sending a top elite lifter to every category would be weird as fuck

>>38307398
you can probs get 200kg cj after more than a few years as a 94 if you have some semblance of talent

which you probably don't :^)

Mobility like everyday. Shoulders, hip, ankles, wrists, legs... everything.

Drop deadlifts for now and do squats, good mornings, SLDL etc. for legs. Deadlift will bring bad habits when learning the pulls. For upper body OHP, dips, pull/chin ups, lots of core work and other BB stuff.

You can also do some overhead squats and jumps (box jumps, fence jumps..)

>>38313920
this >>38314277
Do it like that atleast 2x a week. You can do something like

Power clean
Dips
Pull ups
Core

Power snatch
Drop snatch
Push press
Box jumps
Core

For other 2 days a week. That's actually what my coach is making me to do

>>38314476
>>38314277
How many setsxreps?

>>38314525
Well its just 1,5 weeks so just do what you feel like, maybe go for a heavy single or do a few max attempts, or do quality lifts at lower %

>>38314366
Thanks
I'll try to train the overhead squats and improve my mobility

>>38314940
Do also some jumping and maybe other plyo work

>>38315110
I guess I saw some mobility stuff in the pastebin
But what do you mean by jumping? Just box jumps?

>>38315153
Fence jumps also (if your gym has them.. my oly gym has lots of stuff like this) Focus on jumping high, not just pulling your legs out of the way.

>>38295625

are oly lifts good for building muscle?
Also do you gain power/explosion from them?

Seems like I would benefit boxing too


My only fear is fucking them up since I'll be learning from youtube and it took a bit for me to get the correct form of deadlift when I started(got the hang of squats right away though and OHP

>>38311294
kek I'm 177cm like he claims and those guys look around the 160cm zone, just a bit taller than my gf

>>38317124
>are oly lifts good for building muscle?
no
>Also do you gain power/explosion from them?
yes

>>38317183
eh

so their size comes from acessories/aiding exercises for the main lifts like squats, front squats and stuff?


really digging Lu's aesthetic look, seems achievable natty with a bit less muscle mass or just less lean

>>38317329
Steroids and genes

>>38317329
Chinese do loads of bodybuilding
So did klokov
'do Olympic lifting to look like my heros' is a meme. You'll look like hysen if you do only lifting with no bodybuilding

>>38317337
I've got good genes desu, at least in muscle insertions and shoulder to waist ratio

>>38317407
oh didn't know, I'm relatively new to olw

I do heavy compounds with like 2-4 acessories but was looking at this for the explosion side since I also fight and looked like it would benefit, and it seems fun too I have a boner for barbell exercises

>>38317407
What would be the optimal balance between those two?

>>38313620

Can someone explain the sinclair coefficient / sinclair total to me?
"What would be the total of an athlete weighing x kg if he/she were an athlete in the heaviest class of the same level of ability?"
Does this mean "what would an athlete lift if he were just as good, but in the heaviest weight class"
Or what?

>Tl;dr: explain sinclair plz

>>38320498
pretty much what you said

its basically just a way to compare two athletes no matter what weight they are

Anywhere to watch the men's 105kg A session??

>>38320538
So i.e "if he/she were an athlete of the same level of ability, but in the heaviest class"
Is that right?

>>38320498

The thing no one considers when doing height/weight comparisons is that shorter people have a leverage/ROM advantage that automatically boosts a lot of their lifts, especially squats/deads

ceiling wise though, taller guys can put on a lot more total muscle mass and achieve greater absolute strength with time and build, assuming they have the genetics (or steroid cycle) to do so

>>38320613
nope

his cleans are shit tho

probably doesnt front squat even 250 kgs

>these referees

i'd hate to have michaela breeze as a judge holy shit she'd red light every single lift in the comp
>ugh movement, elbows

>>38321625
I was watching some lifts from the 2015 Worlds and I find that they were more strict than the judging here. Seen more red lights there.

>>38321603
do you mean they're shit for taking lifts away or white lighting? cant even tell at this point kek

brehs I thought this shit looked cool so I tried some overhead squats today to test the waters for snatching but I ended up having to bail out of a 95 lb attempt. Need some goddamn mobility for this sport. How get?

>tfw I saw Savickas walking by

>>38325178

>>38322025

'strong as an oak' is a term we use
though we only have one powerlifter, and the one before him that participated in like 3 olympics never won anything

>>38322011
>implying ilya wouldnt jump over the fence and whoop out 250kg c&j in chinos and polo shirt if he could

So I haven't lifted in like... 1 1/2 months.
I had lower back pain and had to take a break and now I'm on vacation till the end of August. so in total, I will not have lifted for around 2 months.

How do I get back on track again?
how do I start again?

>>38300324
They are noobs just look at local meet results. I train at a gym with guys who's done 130/150 @ 69, 105/127 @ 62, 112/140 @ 85, 125/160 @ 85 and they are natty. Sure some of them are very very talented and been lifting for many years but you can certainly get way way better than you are now. Even the shittest lifter can hit a 200 total eventually. Not that 200 is impressive but yknow.

>>38321919
I know it's bait
But you can snatch 140 natty if you are -77

I'm such a disgrace... My numbers are fucking odd :

92,5 strict press
170 bs
145 fs
220 deadlift

And my best lifts are 90/110 @ 85 bw....

>>38328088
Are you tall?

>>38328135
Not even, 5'11 / 1m81

can someone explain the division of the groups?
how do I know if an athlete on the list of qualified will lift on group B today?

>>38328250
A group is usually those with the top 10 qualifying totals
B group is the 10 following
then C after if numbers permit
and so on

>>38305981
Lol fuck no, that guy is 100% on roids

I started to believe you

Then I googled him

The guy is 168cm and 94kg

Lets assume 12% bodyfat

Thats an FFMI of 29.37

That is super far from natty territory.
(Natty being absolute most 26)

>>38328490
This study doesn't take into account gifted people. Considering how heavily tested farris has been throughout his career I would say he's natty. Also ffmi is probably only fair for skinny bodybuilder types. They don't regularly squat over 250kg like farris so they don't give they're body a reason to be that heavy and lean.

>>38328490
