i am from Egypt and i am very proud of mohamed Ehab not only because he's a great lifter but also because he managed to reach that great level with persistence and self training without any help from our government which doesn't really care for any sports other than football, and now he's capable of beating world greatest lifters who receive attention and aid from their rich governments .. i am really proud of you Ehab!
Brilliant and perfect technique from both lifters. The way they they go up on their toes during the final pull, and then pull themselves under the bar is amazing. Thanx ATG. Cheers!
You know that Ehab has retired this week due to the ban on Egyptian weight lifting federation and he won't be able to compete in the Olympics. We will miss a hell of an athlete.
@@funnyvalentine867 because some other Egyptian lifters tested positive in a competition last year and our beloved Egyptian federation forget to appeal and pay the fees.
13:35 here I was wishing for a side-by-side-comparison of them both (I didn't pay attention to the description at that point)... seconds later my wish was granted. Thank you, you are doing gyms work, Gregor.
I know this is the most obvious statement ever but, these guys are LITERALLY professionals with a barbell, everything about everything he just did was perfect
The external rotation of the femur is actually a function of the gluteus medius and (to a lesser extent gluteus maximus). Probably a mind-muscle connection queue he's found works for him in making sure they're firing maximally.
Lu had more explosion to get it up and faster but Mohamed seemed his body withstood the pressure and weight better. Incredible nonetheless, respect to these athletes
Awesome video. Really cool to see the difference in execution by Lu and Ehab. Lu seems to have much better technique while Ehab is pure power. Shows there are lots of ways to get it done as proven by the elite of the elite in the world. Cheers.
Great video. It is so much beneficial for me to see the comparison between two world class weightlifters, especially the last slow-mo. Lu has longer torso and femur, his position is constantly more upright compared to Mohamed who uses more leverage since he has longer legs and shorter torso (also longer arms). You can see examples of extreme upright position from Asian weightlifters (such as Tian Tao's clean), while you can find more leverage usage from some European weightlifters. As a person who has Lu's body type, I need to be working on lower back and legs (front squats) a lot, otherwise my back and oblique muscles would get too much pressure. If you want to be better at weightlifting, you need to study your body type first and practice accordingly.

The intensity this guy brings every competition is incredible
Is this how the pyramids was built?
Yes
lmao
This is how they was built 💪🏾😂😏
Hahahaha yes
Absolutely
Lu vs Mohammed comparision was amazing, Mohammed has a pretty higher hip position at hip extension
Ihab could do better, in my subjective opinion. looks like he could potentially do the pull better. seems like he cuts the pull a bit short
i dont think thats illusion or 'subjective'.. Lu has much longer torso/shorter legs, thus the more upright back and lower hip position
Alex it doesn’t matter, non sense comment
Alex really 1.65 cm , WTF thats crazy 1.65 and 80 kg fckkk
Ehab imo should jump a weight class
14:00 that edit was sick!
Yep... Very very nice

He didn't get any funding from the government? Damn
@@samuelmassicotte9645 same as Indonesia, young athletes have to find their own paths and fundings

Thats Godelli
That’s so odd watching it lol
Because its light weight..... watch Clarence Kennedy with light weight....he's also lightening fast

When these dudes snatching some gym guys max bench and squat togheter..
I got chills at the end. Both Lu and Mohammed's lifts were crazy plus the montages made them epic!!!!
You know it's a good video when your palms sweat from watching it

Why did they ban it?

The quality, editing and production value of these videos is staggering. Amazing content. Thank you!
I am doing weightlifting since 40 years and i promise i never saw a faster and more explosiv second lift move like his moving before!!!! NEVER!!!!!😳
That's unfortunate the guy in the background at 2:53 wasn't able to successfully fly away like he was trying to do..
He twists his feet during the starting pull, interesting. I wonder why he doesn’t just start at the feet position he twists to.
The feeling only players know
Maybe the subtle external rotation as his movement starts helps him feel like he's generating more force?
The external rotation of the femur is actually a function of the gluteus medius and (to a lesser extent gluteus maximus). Probably a mind-muscle connection queue he's found works for him in making sure they're firing maximally.
Un honor 😎 es ver esos videos ....
8:53 I can hear Lu warming up
Ehab gets under the bar so fukin fast holy shit. Incredible speed
13:28 love the slo mo reaction from his coaches / team
Quite amazing too see...my squat PR is their first warmup set
Great video, awesome lifting.
Lu had more explosion to get it up and faster but Mohamed seemed his body withstood the pressure and weight better. Incredible nonetheless, respect to these athletes
Weightlifting looks so amazing in slow motion... 😮
One day I will lift 300 kg clean and Jerk 🙏😌😌😌
The speed under the bar is absolutely impressive.
His triceps are so big he’s literally growing wings
10:51 "help from god"
lumnir Did he really said that?
@@normaaliihminen722 yes
I heard:
"نصر من الله"
Which is better translated as "victory from God" or "may God grant me victory"
Nasruminallah
Lu’s world record is 177kg
I remember lu 177..... dont know v:
thanks for the slow mo, it's hard to appreciate technique at regular speed

agreed
Yeah, Lu has more quad strength as he seemed more upright during the first pull
@@takaokasuga2110long femur vs short femur
He muscle snatches more than I can clean and jerk. I need to go work out now lol
dont feel bad, these guys are mutants
@@illstill3965 make heavy look like a empty bar, jumping from 20kg to 70kg is mindblowing to me.
@@laav2358 I inspire to be quarter as strong as them lol
Humans can't reach their level of strength. They left humanity behind a long time ago.
Simon 🤣
The moment when u can’t even do his warmup 😂😂
Reminds me how athletic Snatches are; should start working on them again... nahhh Bench Press and Bicep Curls till the day I die!!!
Great technique
I immediately subscribed after i saw the high quality editing at the end..
Awesome video
Finally !!!!
Doesn't Clarence Kennedy snatches 180 easy?
Clarence weighs 20kg more than these guys
Havent clicked on a video this quick before, something new, thanks for the video :)

Two absolute snatch-monsters. Great competition.

Can anybody who speaks Arabic tell me what he says before he starts a lift?
Big Ramy must have helped him with juices.
Casually hitting 120kg between attempts lol
ehab won in snatch but Lu won in C&J and overall win too for Lu
Amazing lifter and great technique!
سبحان الله وبحمده سبحام الله العظيم
