Olympic champion or not...this man will be considered as arguably the greatest weightlifter ever, and above all, a good person. Simply legendary.

[@kalashnikovcortez1380]

Pyrros Dimas greatest ever, and he's still Olympic champion

[@el0j]

Personally I find Klokov, Xiaojun, Dimas and Ilyin to be on the top of the list, they each have different techniques and you can learn A LOT from analyzing their lifts

[@el0j]

_laughs in klokov_ jk, both are amazing

[@olivierrobert9496]

definitely naïm suneymanoglu. no argument can be done against that

[@abadran8174]

@@kalashnikovcortez1380 Naim is the undisputed greatest of all time in this sport. This is one of the very very few sports that have an undisputed GOAT.

[@notyouraveragemo5621]

I love Ilya, he dances, loving moments and often he lifts. Never having a bad thing to say about anybody, does his thing and of course smiling all the time.

[@kblkbl]

What baffles me about Ilya is how he always perform his lifts so nonchalantly. The majority of the top olympic lifters have some major setups or some pondering and pulling their inner strengths to perform their lifts. He just walks into the platform, grabs the bar and breaks records.

[@1111aaa2222]

Lucas-Then he gets his Olympic medals taken away because he is juiced to the gills.

[@963hz]

Lucas Freire Exactly. Has anyone noticed the "clean" women from Eastern Europe that look like men other than me? They test "clean" but is that true?

[@FearWarboar4135]

@@1111aaa2222 all the best are juicing dude. I bet you couldn’t name one dude in the top 5 of any category in Tokyo 2020 that isn’t on gear. Ilya was simply that good

[@laminat0r23]

Keys to successful lifting... make sure hair is on point before you train. MAJOR KEY ALERT.

[@javiersanz29]

Specially considering that he got new hair, jajajaja. (He was a little bit bald)

[@thenaptown3176]

Barber: What you want? Ilya: Ever seen that movie Logan? Barber: Say no more

[@rubensuarez5912]

Nice to see Ilya going heavy again. One of the best lifters ever.

[@Warbaby_]

That young man's reaction at 0:42 says it all. Complete awe and admiration for Ilya. How I'd love to be there

[@963hz]

MrtheOKguy he didnt even stand up lol

[@evansaber7642]

Edward Hayes Cunningham that’s me hehe

[@jarjar657]

0:29 One doesn't just turn down a fist bump from Ilya

[@AlexCarter881]

Thanks for posting this. Didn't know Ilya was trying to make a comeback. Awesome footage.

[@ambidex0med]

Ilya is so cool. Comes in and greets everyone. Smiles. Does his hair. What a humble and cool guy!

[@vfxforge]

Hookgrip delivers once again! Great to see illya lifting.

[@hookgrip]

he told me 103-104

[@simokonsti2440]

Good to see you back in business, Ilja! I look forward to seeing more your current training.

[@hookgrip]

you definitely don't want to see my training

Big Thursday: Ilya Ilyin 170kg Snatch 215kg Clean and Jerk and Awkward Handshakes Training Session

[@LXAsx457]

Amazing lifting. Just to put things into perspective, he was lifting the same weights at the 85kg weight class. What a beast!

[@johnpatowary]

Has Ilya changed his jerk technique to squat jerk!!! What impeccable form and mobility! Awesome video

[@Sepander]

I could watch this all day.

[@Yungstartrillent]

What an absolute legend

[@illusionarytactic]

he seems like such a chill guy to hang out with

[@LazyBoyee65]

gotta make up for ATG's lack of BIG FRIDAY IN ZAKOPANE, POLAND that he promised to upload....from a year ago... ty for that hookgripzzz

[@hookgrip]

footage needs to age, like wine. the big friday footage is aging in gregor's footage basement in a barrel.

[@LazyBoyee65]

lmao dat quick ass response comin in clutch wit dat update nat, das all gregz had to say, now im rdy to wait for eternity (no sarcasm)

[@chrisfabrizio1640]

Ilya seems like such a cool dude to be around

[@flipeffect]

The man, the myth, the fucking legend himself!

[@kuyabrad]

*grabs popcorn*

[@Amivgr1]

Its magic to watch athletes at such a high level

[@SlashnKashmir]

Good to be back...

[@everest3118]

Truly love Ilya!!!! The man!!!

[@evansaber7642]

His stability is hugely on another level. GOTDAMN

[@kddakid6]

This guy is a beast. He hardly even rests!

[@stevena8719]

If Ilya is throwing blues over yellows, then God dammit I can throw blues over yellows to.

[@kavinpatel2748]

Steven Andrikopoulos no you can't it doesn't even look like you lift

[@stevena8719]

Kavin Patel I squat in the 4s and pull in the 5s and there's videos of me doing this on my channel

[@stevena8719]

Kavin Patel why be rude?

[@kavinpatel2748]

Steven Andrikopoulos u right shouldn't have been rude

[@fangske2]

gods make their own reals, as for us mortals, yellows over blues

[@VieserikGaming]

His eyebrows match the level of candito's!

[@JMJC1]

VieserikGaming thats PL, this is WL. No link.

[@Joshplaysinstruments]

The spirit is the same, as are the eyebrows.

[@JMJC1]

Joshplaysinstruments sorry, you've lost me. Please explain the spirit and the eyebrows. Is it some kind of candito fan boy thing?

[@VieserikGaming]

Strong eyebrows, nothing more to say

[@JMJC1]

Does anyone else know what these kids are on about. Eyebrows? Please. Hookgrip should delete these people. It was only a matter of time before these kids found the good stuff and ruin the comments section with puzzling/trendy posts.

[@benjaminporter3706]

Training center is right up the street from me! Sweet!

[@rocandombe]

It's back!!!

[@carloalberto4049]

Grande Ilya🏋️

[@robbiejames1466]

Эх, вспомнил выпуски Big Friday в блоге Ильина)

[@fuckcelie6022]

Omg.. THANKS!!

[@NM-bk3sk]

Ledendary illya with super Saiyan Hair

[@colerobbins124]

16:41 perfect bar drop

[@LucasCosta10]

I wonder what is his thought process in switching between the split and squat jerk.

[@jenyaspain285]

Видимо у Васи все хорошо в Америке,рад за него искренне 👍🏻

[@juancarlosguerrerocortes1942]

Que agrado ver a ilya hacer levantamientos🦍🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@killz931]

Amazing

[@voodoovoodoo855]

приятно посмотреть на Илью с Васей!!! жаль Илюха забросил свой ютубканал...(((

[@rockyketchup5778]

You'd think he wouldn't drop the naked barbell like that. He probably really appreciates quality gear and would respect all of it.

[@olbear303]

18:13 I've never seen a smoother 150kg

[@nicholasbeaucaire1403]

what about polovnikov...he's really good too. Is there going to be a video on him too?

[@hookgrip]

we are going to release a much longer version with a lot more footage and all lifters. check the description.

[@matt8863]

Was Ilya Ilyin really stripped of his Olympic gold metals?? I was devastated when I had heard that...He's my all time favorite! Go Ilyin!!!

[@matt8863]

I just finished watching the entire video...What a beautiful champion with incredible ability, such perfect form. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@xMOSMOSx]

I Love that he waves all the time

[@user-vz4pq3yt6t]

Классно что Вася и Илья вместе тренируются

[@YouCallThataKnife253]

So, did Ilya switch to the squat-jerk? I've seen him doing it in a few videos, now

[@Satory28]

Илюша, молодец! 🇰🇿👍

[@azer1274]

Good job men !

[@dusanhornak5097]

Olympic Ilya is very for Olympic and hi will win again Olympic in Tokyo because hi working hard and never give up 💪🏻👌👍😍❤️

[@sakaue]

fucking loved it when ilya mogged the chinese with his squat jerk, like in this video

[@nathanchristenson2049]

What was the total time of this training session. He seems like he moves quickly.

[@hookgrip]

we are going to release a much longer version with a lot more footage and all lifters. he was at the gym lifting for almost two hours.

[@963hz]

hookgrip Who is the big blond guy. Beard probably a 105-110kg lifter. See him w Klokov and Ilya and Plotnikov quite often....?

[@jackalacka2887]

Edward Hayes Cunningham Yasha Kahn

[@XhesiC]

goat

[@mark12472]

Any idea what his plans are for competing again once his ban is served?

[@LucasAlves-mx5kd]

the fridge shall retuuuuurn

[@QuarterHater9]

Ilya is still the man! He loves his hair hey?! Lol

[@Esdru221]

Feli & Sonny his remaining hair lol

[@raminaamani6137]

It's pretty obvious he did something. He had 1/3 of the hair he has now 2005-2012. I'm guessing FUE transplant. Propably due to the testosterone.

[@andreasviken2949]

1:00 Always remember to look good for the 'gram when in the gym.

[@klajoye481]

Suuuch a beast

[@benjaminporter3706]

@Hookgrip, do you know if Ilya will be training at RWL Weightlifting?

[@hookgrip]

Hrmm, I'm not familiar with RWL, but as far as I know, Ilya is training at Norwood. He's also going to be doing some seminars with Vasya and Yasha so he'll be training at those seminars as well, as far as I know. I believe he heads back to Kazakhstan around early September.

[@user-dr1re7ge7t]

Могучий. Весело работает. 24:00 отлично виден момент про который Клоков рассказывал, как они ловят колебания грифа и толкают только в определённый момент.

[@AnthonyGarcia-sy3yk]

Is awesome. Somebody can be that happy moving that outrageous amount of weight. iilya is the freaking best let the men have his winstrol back please 😅👏👏

[@dipankarmohanty]

The only thing missing is a Nat Arem 200 kg casual deadlift!

[@hookgrip]

hrmm, interesting possible addition to really make this training session way more exciting

[@Stigmableedingblack]

Ilyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Best ever!

[@PoppyMusica]

am I the only one that did not know what Illya sounded like, until this video?

[@sankethavoc]

lifting next to Vasily

[@TheM00ch]

Polovnikov sittin there like damn haha what has he been putting up lately?

[@alveber4427]

Молодец, Илюха! Куражнулся👍

[@wolfemooney7188]

Seems like a nice guy

[@kenteghomwanre9111]

he warms up like Goku before a fight!

[@hwdpj6471]

Ilya gives off a mega troll vibe with his hair.

[@MrWaza24]

What is he weighing at here?

[@NM-bk3sk]

[@jonmolina948]

Who is this guy? He's pretty strong.

[@muellernikolai8630]

are you kidding ?

[@el0j]

I seriously hope so..

[@S98Olsen]

Why was he power/ squat jerking?

[@ReneMcLaren]

Would love to see ilya do mma

[@les12001]

Thanks you!!!! Very interesting!

[@choural]

0:55 ok now i know the secret

[@blaize3316]

The warm up starts at 0:55 LOL

[@nurzhan3269]

Илюха красава! Помню ты приезжал к нам в Назарбаев университет)

[@rayglasscock9667]

Jesus Wept in the presence of a CHAMPION mere mortals fearing to tread, can you follow his footsteps without fear

[@xshufflex1]

The music was as intense as he was lol

[@xshufflex1]

Also, someone needs to find the name of the songs they were playing, got me into the zone, felt like a much weaker Ilya for a moment, sitting in my bedroom.

[@ThatKidTrent]

Do you know what his bodyweight was in this session?

[@hookgrip]

he told me 103-104

[@toscamulder5614]

[@963hz]

Aukhadov Apti!!!!!! 🏋🏽‍♀️🏋🏽‍♀️🏋🏽‍♀️

[@nithianathan7962]

How awesome would it be if he started doing training camps

[@joe718gt4]

Nithia Nathan he certainly has the time now...

[@Darrell1977]

Did Ilya’s hair grow back after steroids? He was balding heavily at some point.

[@levelTWOfitness]

King Shxt

[@sladerheaume]

Nice to see the man took some of that hard earned Olympic cash and got himself a good set of plugs ;)

[@ThumbWiggler]

Anyone notice 0:30

[@grymek737]

He only had one miss during the snatch, is this correct?

[@hookgrip]

I think so. One clark with 170 on the first wave up to that weight.

[@jorgeborbolla3743]

Looool, from empty barbell to 70 kg to 100 kg like it's nothing haha

[@coIey]

he is living in norwood? I dont live far from there, that is crazy to know! May I ask why he is living in mass right now?

[@hookgrip]

He's studying English in the Boston-area

[@tthunderxheartt5033]

Техника безупречная

[@barispeace]

If this small space is a "Olympic training center" then the extemely low succes of american weithlifters are not surprise.

[@mrcofbabylon]

WTF are those rest times WTFAWKKKKKKKKK

[@user-hj3fw4nt5z]

сейчас скажут это все из за сустанона он столько рвет
