I was 13 yrs.old watching this on ABC Wide World of Sports and when I saw an earlier Russian weightlifter David Rigert lift on the show ( middle heavy weight category) it blew me away and I started Olympic style weightlifting myself.

Ratificó su hegemonía de fuerza humana la URSS con sus representantes y sobre todo con el Campeón Olimpico indestronable Vassily Alexeiev .

2:19 - After setting a world record in the C & J the previous year (1970) with the worlds first 227.5 Kg (501.6 Lbs) lift, this year Vasily presses it!! And then goes on to press 230 Kg (507.2 Lbs).

He robbed Reding with his 507 push press. But still. Remarkably strong man. I read an article where he said he planned on pressing 520 next time. That's wild. Would've loved to see the press stick around in Olympic lifting.

Very noticeable in the Press that Patera and Reding kept their knees locked, not bending them. And that Alexeyeev didn't...

And that is why the press was eliminated from Olympic competition in 1972. Too many lifters really getting away with push jerks.

@@iowa_don Yes, the whole situation became a mess. But a year ago, or more, I recall Dmitry Klokov holding a military press competition in which the lifts were within the strict requirements of that lift. But, of course, without the added stress of real competitive pressures. Yet he achieved c.165kg. Can't help thinking that stricter judging could have saved the day. I saw a clip very recently of Lasha just about managing 175kg push-presses. Which even the commentator said was a bit surprising (aka disappointing.) And I'd agree with that for a man holding the C & J record. Perhaps a real 'strength' version needs to be reintroduced...

@@VincentComet-l8e Understandable that the weights were not that impressive. No one is doing the ancillary exercises that we did when the press was still a "thing". I can't imagine the lifters of today would waste their time doing incline presses or bench presses. Just building extra muscle mass that won't help at all during competition. But they are perhaps too strict on snatches and C&Js now. I was watching some old footage from the 50's and 60's of lifts where elbows definitely came unlocked and were passed with 3 white lights. I agree that you shouldn't catch a snatch too low and press it out, but if you jerk to arms length and then unlock just a bit as you struggle to hold a really heavy weight overhead, I don't think that should be a fail.

⁠@@iowa_donthe other problem is the knees are ver hard to judge, firstly because a natural standing position is not a truly locked/extended knee with a tensed quad. And secondly because the knee movement required for a max press where your body is bending under the weight required a very quick knee tracking forward, even with straight knees, to balance. it would be difficult to determine if there is or isn’t bend.
