It is so frustrating that “500” has taken over the narrative of Lasha for so many. It tends to undercut and distract from the absurd greatness he’s already achieved. 225 snatch, 267 c&j in competition???? Lalayan and Minasyian are not even close to him when healthy! Not close! They couldn’t even beat him injured! Nobody in history has ever come close to doing what he’s already done. So, let’s focus on that, focus on edging up those records, and quit acting like 500 in competition is a reasonable expectation when he’s already taken the sport to a level never imagined. Just my opinion.
He's to weightlifting what Usain is to track and field. It'll take generations for the world to catch up
Lasha the best💪🏻🇬🇪
Another great interview! I'm really impressed by the turn around to edit, translate and upload such great content. Well done Torokhtiy Media team. I'm looking forward to some female athlete interviews
I am Armenian, and it was kinda cool when the scene cut to the 3 armenians at 3:25
На те,як Лаша піднімає,можна дивитись вічно!💪👍
Вам, Олексій,величезна дяка за вашу роботу,за ваші навчальні відео!👏
By the sounds of it he's no longer going for the 500, just staying undefeated
Pity, but better for him after injuries….
He’s had injuries and stuff. He’s still amazing to watch.
Exactly, Usain Bolt vibes now from Lasha, he knows injuries have taken a little bit from him and that peak is not coming back, but your so far ahead of the competition that you can still dominate, most important thing now is to get those Olympic and WC Golds
Like Bolt, Lashas records will stand for a very long time
Удачи на помосте! Мощная команда в Грузии
I hope your channel grows much more! thank you for bringing all this amazing WL content
It’s all about love to weightlifting!
I would love to see what Lasha eat to support all this crazy strength.
God bless you
I love the interviews on your Channel!! I hope one day, the world find ah secret video of lashas 1rpm muscle snatch 😅
Thanks for the interview! It's great hearing from Lasha! The only thing that makes me a bit sad, is that he thinks less about records...
Of course! He cannot think about records anymore: he will never even reach his own record of 225+267=492...And no one else will, I think, not in fifty years.
@@georgesmelki1 I think he will do more records.
@@ConnoisseurOfExistence Do you still think that? Well, he failed 260 C&J...He will NEVER be able to break his own records, and I'm pretty sure no one else will, not during my lifetime anyway(I'm nearly 76 y.o.)
@@georgesmelki1 Yes, I do think he will lift more 1-2 years after the Olympics next year. But anyway, he's already the greatest ever.
@@ConnoisseurOfExistence But of course he is the greatest ever! But he will NEVER be able to lift his own records, let alone more. Anyway, we will see...
It could very well be that we're seeing the limit of human potential as far as Olympic Weightlifting goes. It had to happen eventually. Now I'm really talking about the limit of Lasha's potential here. Let's face it . . He's weighing well over 400 pounds now and is getting injured more frequently now as well.
When I was competing, I found that once I reached what I thought must be my limits in each lift, I was able to maintain that level of strength by forcing myself to get bigger. So the lifts that I once could lift in the 100kg class, I now had to do in the 110kg class, then as I aged I had to lift as a 125kg lifter just to do what was once possible for me as a 100kg lifter. Also by that time I was over the hill in terms of my age as well. I was in my early 30s in the 100kg class, whereas in the 125kg class I was in my very late 40s.
Lasha, it seems, has also gone that way in terms of bodyweight. He's still a relatively young man, about to turn 30. Technically speaking he should be just about to hit his prime as a strength athlete. But with his, and every other lifter on the world stage's use of PEDs, that may not be the case.
Let's not forget how long ago it was when Leonid Taranenko was on top in weightlifting and how far ahead he was compared to the rest of the pack. That was before drug testing too. It's taken this long, over 30 years, for the lifters who have to contend with the drug tests to catch Leo up. And it might just be that Lasha has hit the wall in terms of what's possible for him. And notice that he's only a couple of kilos ahead of Leonid. I hate to say this, being such a devoted fan of Lasha, but it just might take a more genetically gifted lifter than him to break through that 500kg total barrier. What must really be biting him is how tantalisingly close he came to being the one to snatch 227.5 and Clean & Jerk 272.5 just a year or more ago, and how those numbers are slipping from his grasp, millimeter by millimeter.
I think: if he took a year away from competition and trained consistently without having to peak multiple times throughout that year, then he just might be able to come back and make those lifts. But what about his rivals? With Lasha out of contention for a year or more, I'd bet the ranch on them really being able to forge ahead and maybe even do those magic numbers without having to worry about Lasha always being the spoiler. Boy, do we live in interesting times or what?!
He needs to take time off and work on his mitochondrial health.
How tall is he and how much he weighs?
👍👍👍🇸🇻🇸🇻
al that words to say "love what to do"; will lasha be the first one with 4 olympic gold medals? there are two lifters close than anyone, Lasha and Shi Ziyong, both have 2 golf medals righ now and paris 2024 is really close and both have a lot of chance of win
toaday i was trying to snatch for the first time and i have to say that 20kg bar feels heavy on the snatch hahhahahahah
@2:35 I'm not sure what this means? What does he mean by him not liking air conditioners because he can get fewer? Does he mean air conditioners are causing him to lift less?
I believe the correct subtitle would be "fever"
I feel like you left out a lot of what he was saying. 🥺 I seemed like he was elaborating a lot more than what you translated. But anyways, we love Lasha!
Seems like a lot of what he said wasn't fully translated. The question about advice for lifters for example. Maybe its difficult to translate rather than just summarize "love what you do" but i think these are the most important things to translate fully because you get insight into how a person really thinks and how they vocalize their motivations.
the last part they forgot to translate too
Interview KEYDOMAR
1:25 10k plate looks like a cracker

500 seems impossible even for him
