Most important part of the lift is how your hips are loaded when you take the bar off the floor. Watch lashas pelvis as he brings the bar to his shins, it shifts and so does his knees in relation.
Ruslan got robbed on his 189 snatch. Theres a difference between catching the bar with bent elbows and pressing out vs catching the bar with locked arms and having a bit of elbow wobble.
@@duncanthaw6858 Agreed!! Single arm white lights, both arms red. Press outs makes no sense to the casual fan and allowing one arm vs two still helps with risk mitigation for the athletes, as in should not lead to extremely dangerous technique/refusals to bail.
I think they should do away with the whole press-out rule. As long as they get the weight overhead with arms locked out at the end I couldn't care less how it gets there - I'm impressed either way.
@@nonexistent7257 it's true, you have to see Zakharevich vs Botev vs Rizvan Geliskhanov in 1990 european tournament, that video had to be called 'it's no place to weakness' the total was Botev 445, 250 c&j and 195 snatch, Zakharevich 442.5, 242.5 c&j and 200 snatch, Gelishkanov 440, 237.5 c&j and 202.5 snatch, in my humble opinion the most incredible battle
Kakhi lifted 235 kg at 99 kg bodyweight in 1996 Olympics and it looked so easier than this guys. That Greece weightlifting team won something else seeing the heavyweight guys of today.
Personal trainer her who just likes to watch these awesome lifts. At 17:29 it looks like its a muslim brother doing "sujood"/prostration, like we do in our Islamic prayer. So strong yet humble enough to prostrate to The Al-Mighty.
I'm new to this, so forgive my ignorance, by can someone explain to me why it's perfectly legal to chase the bar and safe a lift if it gets in front of you, but press outs are illegal? Both seem to fall into the same category of saving an almost missed lift to me. Why is there something so bad about a press out?
As far as I’m aware (correct me if I’m wrong) goes back into the history of the sport, there used to be a separate lift that was a push press, so to differentiate that from the jerk, they added the elbow press out rule, they got rid of that lift but still maintain the press out rule
strength required & it becomes 2 lifts chasing the bar is stabilising your lift Pressing out and it goes from a clean and jerk to clean and shoulder press
As others have stated, it goes back to the time of the clean and press. But nowadays many see the press out rule as part of a sport that holds itself to the highest standard. Goal of the jerk is to accelerate the bar to a height where you can jump under and catch the bar with completely extended arms. If you fail to do that, it means the technique wasn't well executed or the weight was too heavy. I personally think that a press out looks very ugly, although the judges often seem to go overboard with slight wobbles in the shoulders or ellbows.
Noob watcher here .. what is going on with Simon CJ? I literally can't see how he gets the bar behind his neck even at quarter speed.. anyone explain please?
It’s not as uncommon as one may think for countries/federations to edit their athletes birth documents to shed some years off them esp if they can win more junior medals. Not claiming anything just something to think about

It’s very quick but don’t look at the bar and the weight lifted. Watch the bidy and how it moves around the weight
The stuff thats happening behind the scenes is very interesting and adds so much to the competition, please do more of these videos!
Incredible weightlifting. Thanks so much for the upload Seb
I had a hunch a video featuring the young buck was coming after the insta story
Awesome video as always
Great session and a very well done video coverage presentation here!

it went from straight -> bent -> straight
Amen man. This sort of stuff needs to be on the way out.

There is a visual difference, but there isn’t a difference in terms of outcome unfortunately

Was waiting for this one
Akbar is the best in this category in this moment
He'll be for a looooooong time if he can stay injury free
@@Miiiiiiighty He's really well rounded. Like he's within a few kg away of the snatch and CJ world records but those lifts looks like he can do more.
The kiss betwen akbar and simon in the 19:07 is funny, after akbar clean his face jajaja
Ruslan techniqe is awesome
umm i think Ilyin, Nurudinov and Bedzhanyan 2014 iwf championship was even better, and Zakharevich, Botev and Rizvan GEliskhanov was amazing too
These! I still get goosebumps
doesn’t the title say “one of the best”, not “the best”?

@@haroldpepete I’m not sure you understand, he said “one of the best”, not “the best” and he has made seperate vids on those other events
Esa competencia es inolvidable

There is no good reason for the press out rule to exist.

@0:32 is Ruslan's low effort attempt at some Hellboy cosplay 😂
nice
Abolish the pressout rule
When a press out becomes just a shakey elbow, you know its gone to far.
Great video! Love me some Ruslan.
Nice
Ruslan shouldve got that. It was all shoulder, elbow stayed locked out when I watch it slow mo
Why Matlock? 😀
I never realised it but simon didnt C&J with a belt
Noob watcher here .. what is going on with Simon CJ? I literally can't see how he gets the bar behind his neck even at quarter speed.. anyone explain please?
what do you mean 'speed behind his neck'?
What do you mean?
everyone on podium together with mask on, then go and train together with no mask on, lol
what does a non super mean
An athlete not in the super heavy weight category
Simon is 25? What the fuck
he is very young

@@james100kg6 you look older than you claim. Leave Simon alone.
Wobble=pressout. This makes no sense at all. Both Martirosyan and Ruslan caught the bar with straight arms and simply wobbled.
Unfortunately it’s in the rules
