dave_rogerson said:The man is just on another level, just sickeningly talented. Anybody else notice that he seems a little hyper? Seems like quite a funny bloke. From the comments I've read by people who went to the seminars he is really quiet, humble, and hilarious. In one of Klokov's recent videos he was breakdancing for jokes. | |||

herman said:Lol, stop it! There is "good nutrition" and 440kg total nutrition. He plans to go up to 105 too, going to be interesting. Doubt he would do it if he didn't think he could still win, and in that I would take his judgement over mine or yours any day. | |||

| Nice work on the 6x6, it only gets easier from here I'd say. Sort of. The last two sessions (85% 5x5 and 90% 4x4) really have been quite straightforward! | |||

danbaseley said:Ilyin is sponsored by one of the Kazakh oil barons, I seem to remember. I bet he has a few quid; but he is the millionaire exception. Technically speaking, rich or poor, they're all at it.  From what I remember the President himself gave him the suit he competed in, in London. Also, Russians reportedly pay their olympic gold medalists 100k Euros. | |||

CJR said: The masters version is definitely doable consecutively. Don't know about the regular one though! You seem to be getting through it no problem! I think what makes it easier is that my technique was utter s**t before I started! Less s**t now. I like RSR because you get to practice squatting a lot. | |||

Post Edited: 14.12.2013 @ 00:02 AM by JNT It would be great if you could assume everybody was clean until proven otherwise. But in weightlifting, especially at the international level, I am not sure how accurate that assumption would be. | |||

CJR said: ha not yet. Was quite conservative with my maxes and I'm progressing a bit faster than planned due to muscle memory  snatches still going s**te though haha. Will find out where I am with the weightlifting at tomorrow's comp and get a video up.Ah sweet. Good luck! I think conservative maxes are key to RSR. I am sort of considering running it again fairly immediately after...not sure if that's greedy or not. It seems very repeatable so far! | |||

CJR said: Surely worst case scenario is having her reputation completely tarnished and not being able to compete for a minimum of two years! Best case scenario is that she cheats and is able to compete but still has to live with knowing that she's cheated to get there. Is it cheating if all the other kids do it though? | |||

| I like how he emphasises the special connection between the two of them but at the same time says he didn't follow up on whether she worked on getting permission or whatever happened. | |||
