To clear everything up: He did not fail those first lifts. They were warm-up sets used to build up to his max. When you hold that much weight over your head for multiple reps you get fatigued, which would sabotage your max attempt meaning you already have used up your energy in your warm-up.
Yeah man.In my opinion Klokov is the strongest weightlifter of all time (109kg)...His lifts are ridiculous,to bad he didn't do as well in competition.The record for snatch and clean and jerk in the 109kg is 199kg snatch and 240kg clean and jerk...Numbers that Kokov hits in training...He literally did a hang pause snatch 200kg at one of his training sessions and his beat clean and jerk is i think 244kg...But its not official unfortunately.
I learned this in deadlifting when I was powerlifting in high school because I told my teacher my back would start to get sore just from loading weight. So he taught me this. Very good trick but you just have to make sure no one is standing near you because you can hit people in the feet and legs. lol
@@D_Tren_Nation anyone with a brain would do that without the need of watching a weightlifting video.... That dude is an idiot and manage to harm his traps pulling the weights
@@memocomander Who cares? If everyone is on doping then it is equally impressive. Please take same amount of steroid, even more if you want, and try to perform at his level.
Fawaz 2 Go That's why snatch is the hugest bitch in weightlifting. Deadlift, throw the fucking 205 kg over your head and squat with that thing on your wrists. This mans testosterone levels would be so off the charts he could impregnate a bitch standing within 50 m radius just by looking.
A friend of mine introduced me to this exercise for the first time a week ago, and my god is it a humbling excperience. 30kg has never felt so heavy before. Nothing but the outmost respect for Olympic lifters and their god like strength!
@@siheath3648 Yes, he's on drugs, no wonder. You know what? Without drugs these athletes would be still better than 99.9% of the population. That's just the fact. Only those people respond well to the PEDs who have top tier genetics.
Дмитрий, какой молодец, вот это результат 205 кг. в рывке и с какой легкостью!! Рано он покинул мировой помост, сколько у него ещё сил и какая мощь!!! Здоровья ему и больших успехов в его таком нужном деле, как популяризация тяжёлой атлетике во всём мире!!!!
@@JinnDante hahaha i was about to comment exactly the same sentence as you also with that "nigerian" accent and when i read your comment i was laughing so hard 😂👌👌
We must remember he never did anything like this before he RETIRED.He isn't being tested anymore without notice so drug use can be increased dramatically. Also he is a natural for lifting because it's not just drugs but shocking hard work.
My brain skipped over the kg at first and I was not too impressed and then I saw the kg and freaked out .I dead lift around this weight and I cannot imagine throwing this over my head.this dude is not human.
Those 1st few reps might have been performed as a "preparation" for his 1 rep max (almost like an energy-conservation approach before performing your 1RM). Dmitry Klokov was probably thinking "190kg... I've done this before. I'm just going to review my form with this rep before doing my PR"
With the 200kg he was just warming up the explosion from hips to catching the weight, making sure the bar is moving right and winding up in the right place, but not wasting energy stabilizing the bar or standing up until reaching the true max rep. Its not a meet after all, just a training max.
Man, my PR in deadlift is 180kg, and when I does that, my vision got Black. I can't imagine how strong the body must be to do such powerlift. 200kgs is a monstruous snatch.
Tian Tao this wc. He failed his opener in the snatch twice and upped the weight 5 kg! To 180. And in the clean and jerk, he failed 225 and upped it to 230 for the win.
Majed Twijiri I mean we was probably 108 at the most based on how low he kept his bf% throughout his career even through training, but everyone trains higher than their comp weight although his cuts were probably water weight.
Funny thing is that I never go to gym but I'm a quite fit guy, but I find it hard even to just stand up from that position with my arms up with no weights in my hand XD
This man is a fucking beast.deadlifting 205 is one thing but to snatch it is just amazing.vodka and lifting heavy bloody weights. . . . . . . . .i should have been rushian.
You're right, but I didn't mean it in a negative way like "oh it's in his head one leg is longer" - I just didn't feel like it was my place to outright say one leg is longer than the other as I haven't gone up to the man and measured them.
Sir Lew You were right I was struggling to snatch 60kg but with straps I made it to 203kg on my first session. Just shy of this guy! He just has better straps though
Straps do help though. When you grip something and it's too heavy there is a nerve in your arm that prevents you from picking it up. Training grip strength and using straps help counter that.
Se equilibrasse la postura e quindi l'utilizzo dei arti inferiori potrebbe fare anche di più ma credo che ormai sia tardi. If he rebalances the posture and the use of the lower limbs he could do even more but I think it's too late.
Its mind boggling to this amount of weight been thrown up above the head. I strughle to deadlift that weight and this man throws it up like its nothing
seriously though , how can these small and delicate bones of the wrist elbow and shoulder handle( overhead even ,) all this dynamic load of 205 kilos ? Its crazy if you think about it
Those blue straps or whatever that he has on his shins, are they only for protecting against the bar scraping on the leg? And what does the "bandage" straps do? (Sorry for wrong words)
The ones on his leg are knee sleeves that he just wears around the shin to protect from scrapes. The straps on his hands are for increasing grip on the bar, possibly up to 90% more grip
Is it just me or the left foot sits higher than the right? You can see how this affects his power as he shifts to the left side while he goes up. More power to the left. Impressive nonetheless
чо тут можно сказать? господин клоков это просто чемпион! настоящий воин ,победитель,если б не травма,была бы у него и заветная золотая медалька! хотя для меня,он всё равно победитель!

The only two dislikes are from his elbows for the 205 kilos they had to handle
His knees and back made account on youtube. We officially now have 11 dislikes.
his uneven feet got mad as well
Is he hook gripping? I dont think so
No, he is not...
try hookgripping with straps...
Some people really can't fathom how much weight this is, it's remarkably ridiculously amazing
Haha yeah I was deadlifting 185kg today. I know that's not strong but I couldn't ever imagine attempting to throw that overy head😂😂

This is incredible, everyone who lifts can understand
That was a beast lift
For a lay man with some experience with lifting, a 200 kilo deadlift is commendable. But this...this is just sorcery. Speechless.
the guy is a monster.
It looked like he was having issues at 190 and 200kg, but the real issue was there wasn't enough weight on the bar.
I trained him ...
He was just doing warm up sets until he went for 205
He wasnt having issues you normie he was warming up with it he knew he could stand it up he didn’t wanna waste the energy so he dropped ot
Warm ups

You witness that every day by living in civilization. We have mastered a good part of nature.
When I would snatch in hs, once you got past 225 it almost felt impossible to get past the waist with a good swing. Can’t even fathom 450. INSANE

LMFAO
Right! He's a monster

In another video, he explains that he lifts 60kg with just the power to lift 60kg, and so on, because it's better for the technique.
The only thing that i learned from this video which I can actually do during my next work out is, the way he removed the plates. 😂😝
Klokov is a beast. Excellent video and music. 🔝🔥
Best video!! Amazing lifter. Klokov, for me n.1
Only 15kg off the world record at that bodyweght is insane
Didnt he hit 220 paused
He wasn’t far off 105kg. I feel like if he cut down to 105 he would’ve set a snatch record perhaps
My favorite video on the internet. I always come back to this
All those years passed, and I thought that he missed those 200kg snatches, while he was missing those intentially to warm up haha
no he wasn’t
@@matthewmckee6289 yes he was
No fucking belt ! 😱

Love these videos of Klokov where he casually throws people's deadlift PBs over his head like it's nothing
icredible fitting choice of music!
Soooooo fast under the bar. That's what separates the good from the elite. Not even seconds after the 3rd pull he's in a full catch position.
Me deadlifts 115kg : feel strong

Amazing show of POWER!!!
Fails 190.... "lets go for 200" fails...
"bruh i can do 205 eazy"
jesus what a machine
He was just feeling the weight
He didn't fail the lift. He was just warming up for the movement. No need to hold the catch, so he just drops it.
Non weightlifting normies not knowing what they’re talking about Jesus
He not fail...he make snach to feel weight and warm up, no need to hold
Warm ups aren’t a thing I guess
Every lifter: I failed a lift, let's drop the weight
Klokov: I failed a lift, let's *add more weight*
Tian Tao this wc. He failed his opener in the snatch twice and upped the weight 5 kg! To 180.
And in the clean and jerk, he failed 225 and upped it to 230 for the win.
Jesus people are so stupid he’s not failing he’s just warming up catching the weight had no purpose and is just a waste of energy

Great determination. Luv it.
just. incredible.
I wish I hadn't gotten into Oly so late in life - I wouldnt be as good as klokov but Id have more time to try and get there :)
What did he lift after this warm up?
500 kg
First Name Last Name His nuts off the floor
That guy is a beast even after retairment .
what a bad ass, until you've held that weight in your hands you won't know how fucking impressive this really is.
Dedication level 100
I need this guy to come and help me work on a dozer to lift some of the gears and tracks that we need a 2 ton chain fall to lift.
Beast of nature!
perfect music for this video
Не взял - надо добавить, бл..! опять не взял - ща добавлю! Опа почти взял, сцуко добавляю! Пабам! Вес взят!!! Красава че =)
unreal. I just bought Klokov weight plates to celebrate :)
INCREDIBILE!
3:52 seems to be a very useful trick
The max I have snatched is 65kgs, could’ve gotten 70kgs but that felt heavy af. I really don’t understand how come someone snatch these weights
Looks like hit the shirt on the way up, which would account for the wobble. Wow, incredible snatch.
I loved his Passion.....
After watching this I can say that Humans can do anything.
Is his personal music player hooked up to the gym sound system? That's pretty boss.
It's not really a gym per se. It's one of the camps Russian weightlifting team trains at :)
Cool video!
🙏No words... 🙏
That's impressive considering the world record is what 216?
Dimitri was a -105 not a +105. The WR snatch in the -105 category is 200kg, so he lifted 5kg more.
At the time of shooting he was most likely +105kg, still impressive ofc
Majed Twijiri I mean we was probably 108 at the most based on how low he kept his bf% throughout his career even through training, but everyone trains higher than their comp weight although his cuts were probably water weight.
As if snatching anything above 200 isn't already impressive lol. It's impressive, period...
in training you will always find people lifting more than the WR so they can be "sure" to lift a smaller weight in competition
Funny thing is that I never go to gym but I'm a quite fit guy, but I find it hard even to just stand up from that position with my arms up with no weights in my hand XD
Thats Your rotator cuff being undertrained. Had the same problem too

Thanks 👍
will wrapping my legs like that help me to snatch more weight.
Is one of his knees standing higher than the other? 3:20
He thinks that one of his legs is longer so he alters his form to compensate.
Рог
He doesent think one is longer... one of his legs is longer hence why he changed his form
You're right, but I didn't mean it in a negative way like "oh it's in his head one leg is longer" - I just didn't feel like it was my place to outright say one leg is longer than the other as I haven't gone up to the man and measured them.
It's the wrapping ya speds.
Лучшая мотивация!
It shows how much difference straps make. I reckon that if you work specifically to make your grip stronger you will add a few kilos to your snatch.

Accidentally catched this weight in training.
People don't realize that a 205 kg barbell is literally GLUED to the floor. Throwing it above your head at such speed needs an inhuman strength
seriously though , how can these small and delicate bones of the wrist elbow and shoulder handle( overhead even ,) all this dynamic load of 205 kilos ? Its crazy if you think about it
Strong wrists. And also he is wearing those red wraps around the wrists.
World record axle press held by Eddie Hall is 216kg. How is this guy doing this so easily. Is it due to regular bar.
BADASS BEAST:))🙏🙏🙏🙏🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

If you can snatch more than Clarence you are above god.
Clearance kennedy is awesome, but he is way below klokov.
Мне нравится...... Классная работа.
So basically he doesn't succeed with 200kg, then he adds 5kg and he succeed
What a fighter
He was just feeling the weight
He did succeed he was just feeling the weight
He’s like an old diesel truck. They perform better while pulling a ton of weight.
I love the way Klokov missed some snatches but kept going up until he made 205. Real drive and determination!
Jerry Fleming he didn't miss them, he didn't want to do the full motion.
Jerry Fleming Klokov doesn't miss snatches, they miss him.
Jerry Fleming yeah he missed and just went up in weight
dick head He moved up, and forced himself to execute. Incredible mentality
at my gym, if you miss twice you are done - we aren't Klokov
How does that weight not just go straight through those wooden floors?
The entire snatch is less than 5 seconds but took more than 3 minutes to get it done.
Is it just me or the left foot sits higher than the right? You can see how this affects his power as he shifts to the left side while he goes up. More power to the left. Impressive nonetheless
