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

[@wander7476]

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)

[@rubensuarez5912]

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

[@thenaptown3176]

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

[@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

[@ambidexmed]

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

[@LXAsx457]

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

[@vfxforge]

Hookgrip delivers once again! Great to see illya lifting.

[@hookgrip]

he told me 103-104

[@johnpatowary]

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

[@chrisfabrizio1640]

Ilya seems like such a cool dude to be around

[@AlexCarter881]

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

[@flipeffect]

The man, the myth, the fucking legend himself!

[@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)

[@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

[@kuyabrad]

*grabs popcorn*

[@illusionarytactic]

he seems like such a chill guy to hang out with

[@benjaminporter3706]

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

[@Yungstartrillent]

What an absolute legend

[@Sepander]

I could watch this all day.

[@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

[@Amivgr1]

Its magic to watch athletes at such a high level

[@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.

[@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.

[@evansaber7642]

His stability is hugely on another level. GOTDAMN

[@SlashnKashmir]

Good to be back...

[@NM-bk3sk]

Ledendary illya with super Saiyan Hair

[@kddakid6]

This guy is a beast. He hardly even rests!

[@colerobbins124]

16:41 perfect bar drop

[@glmeist]

Эх, вспомнил выпуски Big Friday в блоге Ильина)

[@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

[@olbear303]

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

[@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.

[@classic5150]

Молодец!!! ❤❤❤

[@CptTacklesEnnis]

60fps is a crime against humanity

[@jenyaspain285]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@LucasAlves-mx5kd]

the fridge shall retuuuuurn

[@LucasCosta10]

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

[@sakaue]

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

[@everpapamoa]

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

[@rocandombe]

It's back!!!

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

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

[@hwdpj6471]

Ilya gives off a mega troll vibe with his hair.

[@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 😅👏👏

[@juancarlosguerrerocortes1942]

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

What is he weighing at here?

[@dusanhornak5097]

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

[@mark12472]

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

[@YouCallThataKnife253]

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

[@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.

[@klajoye481]

Suuuch a beast

[@killz931]

Amazing

[@NM-bk3sk]

he started Training again ?

[@kenteghomwanre9111]

he warms up like Goku before a fight!

[@ReneMcLaren]

Would love to see ilya do mma

[@wolfemooney7188]

Seems like a nice guy

[@Satory28]

Илюша, молодец! 🇰🇿👍

[@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.

[@nithianathan7962]

How awesome would it be if he started doing training camps

[@joe718gt4]

Nithia Nathan he certainly has the time now...

[@МитяА-с4н]

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

[@XhesiC]

goat

[@JorgeBordam1]

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

[@S98Olsen]

Why was he power/ squat jerking?

[@nurzhan3269]

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

[@sladerheaume]

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

[@azer1274]

Good job men !

[@rayglasscock9667]

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

[@Stigmableedingblack]

Ilyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Best ever!

[@blaize3316]

The warm up starts at 0:55 LOL

[@ThatKidTrent]

Do you know what his bodyweight was in this session?

[@hookgrip]

he told me 103-104

[@choural]

0:55 ok now i know the secret

[@vikingofironthor9818]

the bald guy in green seemed really uncomfortable lol...

[@alveber4427]

Молодец, Илюха! Куражнулся👍

[@ThumbWiggler]

Anyone notice 0:30

[@Darrell1977]

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

[@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.

[@mrcofbabylon]

WTF are those rest times WTFAWKKKKKKKKK

[@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

[@lightsw0rd]

What is his current weight?

[@hookgrip]

he told me 103-104

[@hamzehhaykal2868]

Guys whats the purpose of going down with weights then going up then going down?

[@toscamulder5614]

maybe the heavy weight didn't feel that good, so he went down to get the feeling back. then went up again with the right feeling?

[@gokuadnan]

He probably didn't feel warmed up/comfortable enough

[@hookgrip]

he does wave training. it was around in many places before this, but as a training method it was mainly spread in kazakhstan by enver turkeleri. it's been part of ilya's training system for over 10 years.

[@hamzehhaykal2868]

@hookgrip whats the purpose of it?

[@toscamulder5614]

thanks!
