Lost his pen, then found his pen. #phew Member 4899, 2956 posts	Steve said:The standard in weightlifting is higher, making it much harder and there are fully state sponsored teams to compete against. Eg Filiminova is one of the best pound for pound female squatters in the IPF, both equipped and unequipped. A video was recently posted from the weightlifting world warmup room of a weightlifter at roughly the same weight front squatting significantly more very easily. Boyanka Kostova. She stands a very good chance of hitting at least the snatch world record over the next few days.

‘downsizing’ Member 5704, 3234 posts SQ 280, BP 210, DL 320 810.0 kgs @ 96.3kgs UnEq	ChrisMcCarthy said: Boyanka Kostova.

still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14374 posts	unit94 said: He wasnt 17 he was 15! Better still. Was trying to find the link yesterday, but couldn't Also, I said Hamman was a 440 guy, but after reading up it seems his best lifts were 197 237, and I couldn't find whether he did them together. My bad.

There was a vid of a 17YO lad C&J 175 @ 69k quite recently at the national trials. That's world class by any standard. Your question is misguided at best. First they US has now Sygmunt Smalercz as trainer, the former polish trainer and olympian. He has sure a influence there. He is of course his coach. And also they US(atg had a graph) is obviously a mudhut in weightlifting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QHe1spTW5Y

Also when you possibly have state assisted performance enhancement it's practically impossible to compete, especially with a "properly run" state anti doping system in place. Klokov mentioned a 230kg bench.

Kostova got the snatch (112kg) and total (252kg) WR, so I am feeling pretty smug about this. Having said that had she not missed her first attempt (109kg) I think she could have had 114 - 115kg here.

Obviously brilliant lifting, but a huge difference between her squat strength and her Olympic lifts

I can't recall if that is the one exactly (video text seems to indicate it was an earlier record lift, and I can't remember as it was nearly 20 years ago now...) but, yeah - it's pretty good, isn't it?
