Snatch: 187.5 kg Clean and Jerk: 230 kg Best Total: 417.5 kg (480 sinclair) (About the 10th best weightlifter ever)
Power Clean: 180.0 kg (Strict), 200 kg (some depth) Back Squat: 1RM: 330.0 kg (Some sources say 350 kg, though it is likely to be inaccurate, a 335 kg value is more likely provided from other sources, but he definitely squatted 330 in the back squat). 3RM: 285 kg Front Squat: 280.0 kg Clean: 230.0 kg (Accomplished twice at the 1987 world weightlifting championships) Military Press: 120.0 kg Bench Press: 150.0 kg Clean Pull: 290.0 kg Power Snatch (above Parallel) : 150.0 kg Snatch Pull: 250.0 kg Deadlift: 310.0 kg
Yeah I don't cast aspersions on people who are going for a personal record or whatever and manage to not break themselves in spite of less than perfect form, especially when they're managing more than 1 plate lmao.
But just saiyajin.
Andrew Sanders
Youri is the WR hammer thrower, 86.74m, a record set 30 years ago in 1986 which still hasn't been beaten.
The force on his lower back is estimated to have been over a 1000kg at release

>ATG bye-bye, knees
Jonathan Ross
fucking retards don't know the difference between training for olympic lifts and training for big 3
Justin Diaz
atg helped fix my knees
Wyatt Smith
you're a fucking pussy if you don't break parallel
Dylan Lewis
This is a actually completely wrong and many Burgers believe this.
In Slavland, this is studied scientifically. Stopping a squat above parallel and going back up in fact causes impulse forces to concentrate at the knees (ie. when you stop and go back up, the force is focused on your knees).
When you break below parallel and go until ass to ground, the force is distributed primarily among your glutes/hams/calves/etc.
>ATG = knees spared >Burger squats = knee replacement within 10 years

>hurr ur a poozie becauf you hab gud nees fucking retard lol
Ian Davis
Another good exercise to fuck up your knees is leg extensions. Yeaaaaaa buddy make sure to max out that stack, all that cartilage will be gone in a few weeks. FUCKING LIGHT WEIGHT BRO
Jaxon Edwards
You have PhD in broscience, bro? You even fucking lift?
Joshua Thomas
Here is a good article on the subject with an easy to understand pictogram of the angles:
>Deep squats loaded or not do not reach stress levels (shear force to ACL or PCL) to cause damage and do not cause knee ligament stability issues (Weightlifters generally have enhanced knee stability). The stress of deep squatting potentially causes adaptive positive changes in thickness and strength of ligaments and tensile strength of patellar and quad tendons.
>(Olympic ATG) Weightlifters generally have enhanced knee stability

"ouchy my knneeeeeeeeeeeeeees"
god you are such a flaming fucking faggot. You are the reason they make people wipe down equipment after using it.
Julian Brooks
nuttin but a peanut
Camden Johnson
Haven't lifted in years, but was quite active in my 20s. Hammer thrower
Leo Murphy
Leg extensions fall to place compacting forces on the knee joint, and also fail to recruit stabilization and a sense of balance.
I know you are just leafposting, but leafposting is downright criminal for how stupid it is. You should do better next time.
Tyler Anderson
I have some good videos as to why not to low IQ'd individuals should use machines.

Gabriel Perez
I agree with your general premise, but you don't have to go ass to grass for this to be true. Few people have the flexibility to go that low anyways without fucking up their form. Hip of the crease below the knee is sufficient (so just below parallel). But you're absolutely right about above parallel squats concentrating the forces at the knees.
Nathaniel Russell
I barely hit parallel, in a single ply suit with 725 at 40lbs heavier than this guy.
And I was a fucking monster compared to the average lifter, people cant appreciate how strong this guy is
Camden Robinson
Bulgarians are notorious for 3 things
Joshua Green
The fuck are you talking about, 40% bf burger demolisher. At the highest point when you straighten your leg, the bar that you're pushing is applying force one way while the seat is applying force in the opposite direction. What you're getting is shearing forces in your knees, which is highly unnatural and = knees gone in no time.
Evan Barnes
Heavy squats and deadlifts are good for the body, and you'll totally still be doing them 10 years from now.
Juan Price
That's true, you don't have to go ATG, and I know how hard it is initially, but if you work on a solid stretching routine for a couple weeks you can hit ATG in a few months.
Olympic lifters are extremely flexible. I used to be able to bend backwards and twist sideways backwards
Mason Williams
You should go ass to grass anyway to help flexibility. Your entire life will feel better and more comfortable, and you'll also be better able to shit, which is another big problem in the Western World of Jewish Lies.
That's why you see olympic runners do heavy fucking squats and deadlifts bro. Makes your legs fucking stronger bro.
PROTIP: they don't and it doesn't.
Parker Russell
All in effectively zero gravity as far as joint forces are concerned.
Jonathan Mitchell
You're right, I should work on it. I'm a lazy fuck with stretching though. Any stretches you can recommend?
Carter Wood
Yoga is actually good if you want to distill it to a single world.
Thomas Nelson
The (((google)))
But just stretching your legs, especially inner hams and outer quads. Then to get depth on the squat, use just the bar, goes as low as you can, then have a friend push you down a bit further (you'll bounce back up), then repeat that a few times, rest, repeat. That one really helps the most.
>also proper lifting shoes (raised heel is a must)
Elijah White
Yeah, I got real lifting shoes. Thanks user, I'll work on it.
I need to find a yoga place without all the hippy bullshit.
Jonathan Morgan
Ronnie never did full squats. He did half ass squats. Plus he did bodybuilding type shit
Is that a temp injury? Everyone gets injured, haven't really kept track of Ronnie.
Andrew Wood
Sprinters don't squat? Do olympic lifts? Are you autistic?
Lucas Howard
>Chakarov
B-team lifter desu. Never medalled at olympics and only won the 1993 worlds because Kakhiashvili and Khrapaty took half of the post-olympic year off.
Kayden Harris
Wow. Never seen an equipped lifting dag have the balls to post on Sup Forums. Did you have any hydraulics helping you as well.
Michael Bennett
>raised heel is a must How about a big fat no.
Bare feet best feet. Especially important to get those toes and ankles into the balancing act. There's a reason why the best sports and martial arts are practiced bare foot.
Quarter once I did 855lbs (9 45's each side), just for CNS loading
Jordan Cox
What does every single weightlifter wear at the Olympics? >weightlifting shoe with a raised heel
>It's all mental and about focus on the self and how it feels anyway. If you're a man, you can probably just read a book about it and get well ahead of the pack.
What the fuck?
Ethan Martinez
It depends on the sport
BTW a study was done between Olympic Sprinters and Weightlifters, I think at the Atlanta Olympics. Anyways they put weightlifters vs sprinters, and the sprinters raped the lifters in the entire 100m, but for the first 40m the sprinters all lost to the Olympic lifters
Brody Rivera
5"11" king of manlets
I had a 1750 raw total and didn't get much out of a squat suit but pressed 655 in a single ply shirt.
Then I had 5 surgeries in a row and went back to bodybuilding lmao
Henry Powell
If you want to get an Olympic record for lifting then you use shoes or whatever else will help you to win.
If you want to learn to use your body for every day life, whether it's to fix your knees, lift heavy shit (FUNCTIONAL STRENGTH), or just be flexible and feel good in your old age, then that's a different goal. Feels pretty good man that I'm almost 40 and still most 20 year olds who aren't into sports don't have strength, speed, or reflexes to keep up with me.
Henry Nguyen
Is that what your butt-buddy told you in the locker room?
Angel Reyes
jesus, what surgeries?
Levi Wilson
1964 study that showed Olympic weightlifters were fastest sprinting over 25-yards
Oliver Turner
Ronnie had both hips replaced and discs fused after years of training like a retard
he made a training video last year doing 5 plate tbar rows with classic shitty form and looks like he snapped his shit up again
Yeah I went to a hammer camp once and some American hammer thrower from the 70s spoke and he lectured us on doing full squats instead of half squats. When some Burger questioned him, he awkwardly stepped from behind the podium (something serious wrong with his legs) and went on to describe how he had his hips replaced multiple times, along with all the other knee surgeries / metal he had in his leg. He said he was a half squat fanatic. :/
Gavin Morris
Labrum repair and bone shaving in both hips (genetic defect), bicep tear, shoulder labrum repair and shaving down my ac joint.
I have 5 blown discs too kek, powerlifting is truely retarded.
Samuel Torres
Wow. How long did you do powerlifting for? How often?
I never understood why people do powerlifting. Ok, it's a challenge, and the powerlifting brotherhood is pretty big. But it's just asking for an accident.
Your bicep tear, was it an outright tear? From the upper or lower tendon? What was it like?
Only injury I had was a lower back one. I couldn't walk properly for weeks. Severe pain, swelling, no doctor, orthopedic surgeon etc could tell me what was wrong. I ended up calling Adam Nelson's coach after reading about him having an identical lower back issue. Turns out it was a muscle imbalance-- my back was gigantic, as was my ass/legs/etc. My lower back was constantly strained when I stood up. Stretching for a few weeks made the problem go completely away. The ortho surgeon was gunning for me to go under the (((knife)))
