I just started doing Oly lifting after years of powerlifting and bodybuilding. This one tough sport that leans hard on technique vs raw strength. I applaud these legends.

@michaellaviola3125 9 years ago

I watch this video any time I need that extra push when weightlifting. Thank you for this!!

@Maks4909 6 years ago

Обожаю тяжелую атлетику и не могу без неё жить! Тут нет команды, нет партнера, только ты и снаряд, по этому и зависит всё ТОЛЬКО ОТ ТЕБЯ!

@aravindhsathiyamoorthy9564 4 years ago

This video is the best. The music, the lifts are all superb. One suggestion, could you make a new video involving recent lifts.

@Trappedwitness 4 years ago

Am I weird for tearing up as I watched this? This makes me miss powerlifting when I was 115lbs back in high school.

@NaSportowo-o1s 7 months ago
