- Few had hear of him when he won the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, but you can bet all eyes were on Pyrros Dimas after that and here’s your chance to see him in the training hall the next year, at the 1993 World Weightlifting Championships.

this video is a part of me, i come back to watch it 10 times a year
God this is the life
6:38 ...just insane power
One of the most explosive athletes in the history of sports, period. Strength is one thing, but being THAT explosive is a totally different attribute that only the few and very best possess. It can be cultivated with training up to a certain point, but it's mostly genetic. The acceleration of the weights he lifts as they go up is just crazy. Pyrros was truly a one of a kind lifter.
Id say zlaten was my personal fav when it came to power, guys feet would lift like 8" off the floor on a 215kg clean
He said he tried 60m sprint just for fun and his time was quite impressive. Fast twitch muscle all around
His form is absolutely perfect. Its crazy. So fluid, so controlled, so natural.
His form and technique is truly amazing. This is what you call perfection.
actually his technique is quite inefficient by modern day standards. Yanks the bar, doesnt extend properly before dropping into the hole, doesnt open up his hips efficiently at all etc.etc.
@@filipfilipovic1566 It worked for dimas and he’s arguably one of the most decorated olympians of all time. I guess he just found what works for him and his body structure
@@filipfilipovic1566 His technique may be idiosyncratic but his amazing flow of movement combined with his superhuman speed made his lifts look effortless. Also, the fact that Dimas is the technical director for USA Weightlifting, says something about his technical proficiency!!
No, you're perfection
his shoes sound like bullets
because the shoes have wooden heels
Asics 727
gotta love that walk after casually power cleaning 160 with front rack position to rerack the bar...so he can do some 200+ front squats just to cool off...
He is awesome.....He front squatted 615....He is stronger than Ronnie coleman on the front squat
😂😂😂
Honestly just poetry in motion
Pyrros said in an interview that his PRs for front and back squat were 290kg and 320kg respectively
Very strong front squat then. His back squat is too but that's expected.
325kg back squat
Impossible front squat for lifter from that weight class. Sorry, much heavier KLOKOV did 280. In fact we don't know that, he SAID that www.allthingsgym.com/dmitry-klokov-personal-records/ All we can see in the movie is 265 kg, neverthless it is incredible => th-cam.com/video/4ZiYs8DRnEY/w-d-xo.html He was struggling with 265 kgs, so for me his "280" or "290" is delusional. And KLOKOV was 20 kg heavier than DIMAS.
@@matta1966 let's wait for Shi Zhiyong to attempt the 260 kg frontsquat he thinks he can do, at 75 kg bodyweight. He said it in the interview with weightlifting house if you wanna check this out (very cool interview).
@@matta1966 Klokov is also much taller than Dimas. He has to move more weight. And you gotta go based off structure. Not saying that it's impossible that he is lying, but even Shi Zhiyong has expressed major weakness in dips compared to his fellow Chinese teammates. Plus Pyrros has won four Olympic medals, three of which are gold. Overall, he is just a much better athlete than Klokov
Thanks for video!
I was a simple Greek athlete and I had seen Pyrros compete countless times. When Pyrrhus took the bar in his hands, we were all in awe. If there is weightlifting today in Greece, it is due to Pyrros Dimas. Pyrro, thank you very much!
I don’t know if it’s appreciated or even realized, but the most impressive piece of this video is at 01:11 - how easily he adds another 20kg to the already over +300lbs bar. 🥶
The most decorated weightlifter of all time
It’s actually uncanny how light he makes these weights look. Like I see it happening right in front of me but part of my brain just cannot accept it. My intuition tells me that these weights just should not be able to move like this. He’s making 150kg look like 60kg, except most grown men couldn’t even move 60 with that kind of speed and ease. Possibly the freakiest power and explosiveness of any athlete ever.
Dimas😍😍 speed lifter
So fast.
In case some of the foreign viewers did not notice, throughout the snatch portion of his training, Pyrros is singing: "Ειμαι μάγκας, Πειραιώτης..."
Vatalator at 2:30 ;)
Even 2:45!
What is that song?
Hahah! That's awesome!
Ηπειρότης νομίζω ότι λέει
I just shake my head at his power clean at 170 kilos. It’s just so powerful and perfectly precise…incredible.
That second pull is violent
This video is still motivating. I mean he dominated.
What a phenom when it comes to speed/power. Still quite a strong lifter too, but holy hell could the man fly under a bar!
GOAT
Legendary session
Gotta love it. 150 kg, more than what any American can squat snatch at this bodyweight at the time and Dimas powers it catching it above parallel.
Primera vez que veo a pyrros haciendo split jerk y en las competiciones lo hace en push jerk!😲
Mi amor platónico!❤
beast!
Does anyone know if these (similar) tights/pants are still attainable?
@Glasmania based holy fuck
2:01 hahahaha
When Pyrros trains weight plates fly
a modern Hercules!
Pyrros forever!💘😻💪🏻🏋🏻
What a lifting
Olympic lifters I need your help, I’ve been looking for that “think big” banner for 6 years with no luck. Does anyone know where to find it?
Great story about Dimas in a biographical vid about him. When he was a little boy in Albania his future coach saw him climbing a tree to get some fruit and by the way the kid was using his legs the coach could see the great potential in a leg strength sport he’d have so he talked him into starting training. Sounds a bit allegorical but that’s Pyros’s story.
This is Pyrros Dimas prime.
0:06
How did he lift it?
Muscle snatch but with so much speed out of the hips the bar is just flying...
Can someone clarify why he practice split jerk when he power jerk in comp? I'm not sure this is before or after comp
From what I was told it was the best movement for optimal power. And he didnt need to think about changing positions.
His lower body power is insane
He’s throwing around 315 like child’s play.
This video makes me feel a lesser male
I am mesmerized by the dude's legs nohomo
Pyros Dimas had the best physique in weightlifting untill the Chinese came in post 2010.
Y the fuck r Chinese and North Koreans so jacked. Do they do shit tonnes of assistance work
Hercules
This young kid has a good chance, but he's gotta stay focused for these next Olympic Games.
As an Albanian, nothing but respect for dimas! Absolute beast.
Dimas is Greek he is from north Epirus LMAO. I know my enemies better than you ,you little alpania . So show respect to my Greek enemy cause first I invade alpania when I sen donly my female soldiers to smack u, and then I gonna go to Greece and destroy all Greece when the time is coming very soon 🇹🇷🇹🇷
unreal! im doing zombie front squats again. today i did 3x10 with 65 pounds T.T
They don’t make them like they used to
Lu Xiaojun, Tian Tao, Klokov?
Testosterone lowered in all men around the world
@@seds94 yeah testing got harsh
Johnson Tan or men got soft.. who knows
"Beyond what any American can do". I don't know why Randall Strossen bothers to make that comparison when he himself knows what the real difference is.
respectfully disagree, there are difference(s) talent and coaching are among them
Here we go again. The differences are skill, skill, skill, skill, skill, skill, talent, and age when they started with combination of "real" coaching by coaches who were elite level weightlifters themselves which help to develop skill. The difference that you are implying will only make a difference when it comes to competition among those countries who dominate the sport. Being very strong in itself won't make a great weightlifter or get international medals. That's why Randall use the snatch as a comparison. Even these days as more Americans are breaking world records in the Clean and jerk at the youth level, but look at the gap difference between their best Clean and Jerk and snatch, it is significant when compared to other countries who dominate the sport. The talent (strength and athleticism) is available, but the coaching, resources, and support system at the youth level which develop the right skill is not. They say strength is cheap but skill is not.
Support is a significant factor that too few realize when they make these arguments. After all how can an aspiring 18 year old weightlifter succeed at they elite level if he is also going to school or working a full time job?
Jackalacka 28 Make it a lifestyle as best you can. Carve out your two hours a day to lift and stretch. Use any other moment you can throughout the day wisely. Stretch you whenever possible. Grind it out man grind it out. Regardless of whether or not you become an Olympian you will be far superior, lifting-wise, to anyone else around you.
@@leonalina1980 Football is the American dream. Partying, cheerleaders, checking out colleges which are giving full rides to kids dumb as rock, just because of their size, etc.
Does he take steroids
Its kinda beside the point
....ofcourse he does.
Almost every olympic level athlete does
