      Might have to get some. And some more thumb tape. I use it to cover up mat burns from juijtsu as well as thumb tape. Now if you get some kilo plates in my gym with be complete.

    To make that moment even better, Kuo watched backstage and emphatically cheered for Yenny as she completed the final lift and took gold. Pure class.

      This reminds me of when Agata Sitko cheered for Jessica Buettner's last deadlift attempt for the win at IPF World's last year.

    Thanks Seb, this is something weightlifting sorely needs: the story, the narrative, the drama that so far only deeply involved fans know!

    3:05 "if you want to be a weight lifter you have to use straps" 🤣 Yenny in the entire video not wearing straps 😂😂

      @travishouse5988 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Noticed that too.
      I’ve been an “amateur weightlifter” for about 10yrs now. I’ve never used straps - however, he’s not understating their ubiquity in weightlifting as everyone else I know uses them!

    • @Lorneehax37

      Because she’s days away from competing. Not the time for straps!

    • @LMvdB02
      @LMvdB02 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      She's training for competition where you're not allowed straps. Why would she use them when practicing the movements.

  • @MaxGalofre
    @MaxGalofre ปีที่แล้ว +79

    This makes me love weightlifting and makes me consider starting to train the movements. What an amazing moment that was and what a beautiful video this is.

      Just do it ! I started my journey 8 months ago. It's a slow process w little gains at a time. The challenge is real but those little accomplishments are addictive and very rewarding. You'll be happy you did learn a new skill.

  • @diemme568
    @diemme568 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Notice how her shoulders are slightly behind the bar in her starting position - due to her long femurs. And in fact, what matters is drawing the bar towards you with vertical-ish torso right on hip/thigh (*) contact. I'd say, this s the way to go for long femured lifters: don't overthink "staying over the bar" at the very start !
    (* = depending upon whether snatch or clean)
