[@alback]

Adjacent0 yea, Clarence is not a “world class athlete”, he’s a guy who said “hey this might be fun to do from time to time” and then he outlifts an Olympic weightlifter

[@Steve-sp4rx]

@@alback Does he really outlift some of the olympic level guys of equivalent weightclass? Excuse my ignorance on the sport. He's really the only olympic-style lifter that I watch and hes strong as hell

[@alback]

Steve Franklin honestly, Clarence is a mystery to me. You can’t fucking not be amazed at how strong the guy is with such perfect form while all the time getting the “I’m just doing this for fun” vibe. I mean, Larry Wheels has nothing on him. Even with steroids, he’s impressive. And to answer your question, I really think he is on par with those oly lifter pros. From 13:33 you can see that he outlifted the Romanian guy pro.

[@Pletzmutz]

That 145 squat at 55 kg bodyweight was ridiculous. At that depth, too.

[@dfpguitar]

Her competition lifts are a lot more impressive. Anyone can do a squat, most people whove been going to the gym for years still cant do a snatch with an empty bar let alone 110 on it. A 2xbw snatch is the nuttiest thing, but all world class lifters at her weight have to attain that to even be competitive!

[@michaelmcdonald1620]

Gabriel's body look like a late 30's dad having life issues working out on a garage gym every tuesday. And he can snatch my deadlift.

[@manamejeff2618]

Weirdly specific but true...

[@jotr.9786]

Maybe it's because he doesn't do much bench press.

[@marksinclair2592]

Lmfao!! So true it’s like his body was meant for Olympic weightlifting regardless of its shape haha but really the sport comes down to technique. Of course you need strenght but learning how to execute the right muscle groups goes a long way! I remember Gabriel saying one time that if you can front squat /deadlift 150kg for 5-8 clean reps you have the POTENTIAL to clean and jerk it. Some weird thing he found out over his years of training.

[@muhammadputera6593]

@@marksinclair2592 front squat definitely, deadlift depends on body type. I'm really good at deads because of my long arms and short torso, but my long femurs don't do me a lot of favors front squatting let alone clean and jerking lol

[@tomharrington7985]

hes only 30 not much older than Clarence.

[@MonsterhunterFTWWTF]

It's crazy that Clarence is mainly self-taught and has such great form, but the fact there's another level in Gabriel is crazier. He's literally teaching clarence how to hit the next level in his Olympic weightlifting by giving him tips from a pro.

[@UncleRuckusEnjoyer]

He was in a training camp in Poland for months. Had like 5-6 trainings each week. He is not self taught.

[@MonsterhunterFTWWTF]

Mate I said mainly self taught. From 0 - 155kg Snatch and 0-185/190 c&j were made prior to that training camp. He went to that training camp late 2012 and those lifts were done julyish of that year. In the 7 years since he's increased his snatch 37 kilos and clean and jerk 32.5 kilos.

she must have mastered the technique in order to be able to do that, i am so used to gripping the bar tight to depress and retract my shoulder but after watching her squatting with such loose grip, i came to understand that you dont have to grip the bar so tight to keep your upper back nice and tight
