Im turning 30 this year and im PISSED that i only came across this channel last year. You've done a truly incredible job of teaching, exposing and uplifting the yt fitness community (among other content creators). Im currently still teaching myself these lifts but its changed my training in so many ways and has made me passionate about something i wish i was exposed to years ago. Thanks man
Hey man, I’m 31 and I just found the channel, too. You’re not alone! Don’t focus on the past; crush the future. I’m ready to turn over a new leaf into my 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond. Here’s to hoping the content on this channel will be available for decades. Onwards an upwards!
This might be silly, but my favorite thing about Gabriel's lifts are his single aggressive grunts. No drawn-out groan or shriek, all of it focused in a single expulsion. That shit is manly, haha.
You forgot Torokthy :( his snatchs are one of the best things I've ever seen. They seems so solid and technical that makes you want to see more and more.
Hey Zack just wanted to thank you for the vids. Have lifted weights for years have never oly lifted. Going to start learning the oly lifts. Your channel is a huge reason why. So amazing to see these weights get thrown around so fast. Never want to walk away from the barbell and this just opens up a whole other avenue. I appreciate it a ton!
Love your enthusiasm. This channel has gotten me into following Olympic weightlifting, particularly the likes of Kuo Using Chin, Lasha, Lu, and Illya. 🙌🏾
The 9:00 mark where you describe the catching position in the snatch is very helpful. For safety I'd always tried to maintain full external rotation in my shoulders, but it's very limiting on depth (especially for a 6'1'' lifter like me.) I'm glad to hear you can compromise some external rotation while maintaining enough stability to avoid injury.
I would really love a video getting into more detail about the various ways to rotate and move the shoulders that explains mechanically what they do and the risks/rewards associated with them.
For best CJ Ilya's 242kg is a no brainer, but I also really like Liao Hui's 193kg @wwc 2015, Om Yun Chol's 171kg @wwc 2015 and Shi zhiyong's 205kg in training. And oof I'm surprised no one voted Lu's 177kg @ the rio olympics, specially with the amount video material that was made of it! Maybe the Lu crowd moved on to different sports by now? Has to be my favorite snatch lift though.
How about a breakdown of what you think is the most perfect lift ever done? As a swimmer I find it crazy that elite weightlifting don’t have a ‘perfect’ technique - in swimming it’s very similar in most people, with only a few exceptiond
I guess because swimming doesn't have the changing variable of resistance like weightlifting does. But there are guidelines that must be adhered to for a successful lift, or at least one with any kind of weight anyway. The most perfect technique in weightlifting is usually displayed by the lightest women, as they don't have the muscle mass and strength reserve to do anything but try to be as razor edge efficient as possible. The lightest class women at Chinese nationals is always good to watch, they either make the lift perfectly and effortlessly, or miss with no chance.
Shi Zhiyong at ‘19 worlds, Lu at ‘19 worlds, Ilya in ‘15, Meso Hassona 228kg at dubai or qatar or whatever it was, technically solid but just insane grit to win on the last lift over Rostami
Just for context, I believe they said that Akkaev only ever did small weight cuts, so probably weighing less than 110 kg in the video. Also that was Chigishev first in the pan, after the lift.
Ilya Ilyin 246 from 2015. The way that fridge kinda runs into the barbell just to give himself a bit more time to accelerate it is beyond me. Like, he swings it away right from the floor and gets some horisontal displacement to make the lift because his legs are just... Fridge like.
Its not dying from a popularity point of view maybe,me and like 4 guys at the gym started doing clean&jerks without pre-planning or talking to eachother ( mine is in no way a proper form i just lift it above my head )
Ilya had some massive cleans, I think one with a squat jerk. Klokov. The Russian that did 264 kg way back, as well as Pisarenko and Alekseyev for history. Lu and Tian. Lasha of course. Clarence. Kuo, Lydia Valentin, Tatiana K, for the ladies.
Gabriel is so fast that because of stuttering of screen we can't se him droping under, we just see him at max extension, and then under the bar in one frame :D
Zack it seems you are clicking on mouse to stop and play youtube videos. Instead use "k" on your keyboard. That way you can spam it and go frame by frame without resizing the video (like clicking and spacebar does).
Pleased to see Kendrick Farris in the pistachio commercial. I'm a powerlifter, but love weightlifting. Sadly, my 15 year old, twin boys, who can name every player on the roster of their favorite NBA team asked me who he was.
I'd like that you review one of Lidia Valentín's C&J. Little leg drive (to me) but awesome job getting under. I don't know how she does it. Also, some of Aramnau's. Thst guy is just... fenomenal.
Rich video playing in the background making me reminiscent of better days

The meta of my comment section cures Covid.

Hands on bar etc. etc.

Feet over bar, head under bar etc. etc.
Did not tighten up.

gotta have lu's wr clean and jerk from 2019 world champs. And one of Clarence's >220kg lifts would be great
Tian Tao's 230 from Worlds 2019
It was 230, exept you mean World cup
Kuo Hsing-Chun at 2019 Worlds
Yes kuos technique pleases me
Obviously anything from Loredana Toma, that shuffle of the feat drives me insane man
weightlifting coach reviews: "Hands on the bar, feet under the bar, good"
I was waiting for Clarence nattyvegan Kennedy :(
Same
Nothing natty about Clarence bro

Is that the man, the myth, the absolute BEAST Rich Piana in the back? Yep.💪

Love seeing Richy P in the background
Can you review Aileen Wu's lifts. Or better review her lift analysis videos.
hands on bar sir
review Shi Zhiyongs Powerclean + Squat Jerk at worlds!!

Would love to see Zach do this type of analysis on Clarence's lifts!

Just imagine how much zack could lift if he hopped on sauzule like every single other guy in this compilation.

Need a full analysis on szymon kołecki's techqniue in the clean and jerk, he is underrated possibly the best technician in the jerk ever.
Love your enthusiasm. This channel has gotten me into following Olympic weightlifting, particularly the likes of Kuo Using Chin, Lasha, Lu, and Illya. 🙌🏾
Rich just hypnotized me the whole video long. Rest in peace huge guy...
Appreciate your "candor" in your videos, thanks!
Zack loves reviewing snatches
A real deep dive, getting to the bottom of things.
It's 90% of his onlyfans
Definitely review clarence Kennedy!
Gabriel's 215kg clean and jerk in training is BUTTER 🧈
Ilya 2015 in Grozny would be great
Done
shi zhiyong 199 c&j world record would be amazing to see your take on
Gleb Pisarevskiy's clean and jerks (especially the cleans) are a thing of beauty. Check out the video where he does 255 kg.
YES! The Klokov pause snatch. I am not disappoint.
The 9:00 mark where you describe the catching position in the snatch is very helpful. For safety I'd always tried to maintain full external rotation in my shoulders, but it's very limiting on depth (especially for a 6'1'' lifter like me.)

"He's fully sending it"
*Nelk boys have been summoned*
I would really love a video getting into more detail about the various ways to rotate and move the shoulders that explains mechanically what they do and the risks/rewards associated with them.
like it how Zack goes nuts complimenting Klokov's 200kg pause
great video man, i love this format
Kirill Pavlov lol. Funkiest clean I’ve ever seen
For best CJ Ilya's 242kg is a no brainer, but I also really like Liao Hui's 193kg @wwc 2015, Om Yun Chol's 171kg @wwc 2015 and Shi zhiyong's 205kg in training.

Hahahaha the Klokov paused snatch is legendary.
Naim Süleymanoğlu 190 C&J @60. I think this is the best. Thanks for videos keep doing

Review artem okulov’s clean and jerk, I think it’s perfect from what I know
I had to return to this video, having just watched a video on Klokovs channel with Akkaevs coach. Akkaev was only 107 kg here, which is fucking insane
10:31 pretty sure that's Evgeny Chigishev
For sure Chigishev!! awsome lifter!!
Lovchev's 264kg WR from the 2015 World Championship
Tian Tao's recent 233kg C&J. Outstanding lift!
Shi Zhiyong at ‘19 worlds, Lu at ‘19 worlds, Ilya in ‘15, Meso Hassona 228kg at dubai or qatar or whatever it was, technically solid but just insane grit to win on the last lift over Rostami
Luis Misquera, Daniyar Ismayilov, ilya Ilyin, Lapikov, Nico Müller
serge reding clean & press, belgian proud!!!!!!!!
Matthias Steiner gold-winning CJ is an inspiration
11:00
Akkaev’s right elbow bends. Three red lights
Matthias Steiner 258kg 2008 Olympics
Pyrros' winning clean and jerk in sydney was a good one.
Weightlifting is not Doomed, it's soon to Bloom.

Keydomar Vallenilla 204kg C&J, Shi Zhiyong 190kg C&J, anything Arley Mendez and Chen Lijun.
Ilya Ilyin's 246kg, 2015. I used to watch that lift 100 times before training.

Also that was Chigishev first in the pan, after the lift.
Ahhh chigi. Thank you
Klokov's 204 snatch on a massive deficit was just as impressive tbh
oh shit this is from today. i was looking back to find some cues
Ilya Ilyin 246 from 2015. The way that fridge kinda runs into the barbell just to give himself a bit more time to accelerate it is beyond me. Like, he swings it away right from the floor and gets some horisontal displacement to make the lift because his legs are just... Fridge like.
Sohrab Moradi's 233kg clean and jerk at 2017 worlds.
Meso, Tian Tao, Lu
Good snatches.
if i could give a piece of advice, it would be to keep hands on bar and feet under the bar. other than that, pretty good lifts
HOBFUB
Its not dying from a popularity point of view maybe,me and like 4 guys at the gym started doing clean&jerks without pre-planning or talking to eachother ( mine is in no way a proper form i just lift it above my head )
Shi Zhiyong’s 197kg C&J at the 2019 worlds 💪🏻
Can you review Simon Kolecski's C&J or Zlatan Vanev? They both are so entertaining to watch
Ilya had some massive cleans, I think one with a squat jerk. Klokov. The Russian that did 264 kg way back, as well as Pisarenko and Alekseyev for history. Lu and Tian. Lasha of course. Clarence. Kuo, Lydia Valentin, Tatiana K, for the ladies.
Zlaten Vanev, Loredana Toma, Lidia Valentin, CJ Cummings, Apti Aukhadov. These are some unusual Styles that might be interesting 🧐
for me Sohrab 's 189 snatch is one of the best in the modern era .
Fraser so sauced up, could pour him over spaghetti
Where’s max Lang? His form is beautiful
Gotta review some of Clarence Kennedy cleans!!
Would like to see a review of Clarence 💪🏽
hey Zach would love to hear you comment on Nijat Rahimov’s world record C+J from 2016 olympics! awesome stuff got me fired up!
Any of Tomas's glitch feet .
Gabriel is so fast that because of stuttering of screen we can't se him droping under, we just see him at max extension, and then under the bar in one frame :D
Out lord and saviour being shown in the background. He died for our gains
I was waiting for a "birdybuilder at a globo gym doing lat pull downs with a valeo belt" review.
Meso’s 232 and Tian Tao 233 would be fun to see you compare them
That’s cool but where’s Clarence!?
Klokov is forever an inspiration
Gotta include something from Kuo or Lang. Best Techniques in the game in my opinion. Definitely my favorite to watch.
Can you review Lasha's 222kg snatch?
Zack it seems you are clicking on mouse to stop and play youtube videos. Instead use "k" on your keyboard. That way you can spam it and go frame by frame without resizing the video (like clicking and spacebar does).
a review on ilya ilyin's 245 clean and squat jerk would be sweet
Nice video Rich. I mean Zack
2015 was a fun year.
Pleased to see Kendrick Farris in the pistachio commercial. I'm a powerlifter, but love weightlifting. Sadly, my 15 year old, twin boys, who can name every player on the roster of their favorite NBA team asked me who he was.

Hysen Pulaku 211kg Clean and Jerk at age 19. 2012 I think? His form is... something else.
Also Klokov 245 KG rack jerk also circa 2012. Exquisite technique.
Lets show the ladies some love. Lydia Valentin or Toma
