[@WeightliftingHouse]

Based on Meso's performance, and the fact that Sohrab is out, will China risk sending Tian Tao over Li Fabin to Tokyo? All full commentaries are available at www.patreon.com/weightliftinghouse

[@characterstrength]

I'm increasingly convinced that was part of the reason why Meso has been so active on social this past year.

[@maxm3757]

I think they will, there’s no guarantee Li could beat Eko, and with Tian he always has a habit of producing something clutch when it counts, so I think he’d still beat Meso

[@playerkingofnewyorkcity2581]

Meso wasn’t really impressive but Tian is really missing 210 jerks out there. I’m leaning on China not risking.

[@AnthonyGarcia-sy3yk]

I hope so , heathy tian clean is a thing of beauty . And actually his snacht look decent this time around he could hit that 180 .

[@user-lm5fd6rr5b]

At least now we know why Lu squat jerks... his shoes have no grip

[@kmidst_fn5225]

LOL

[@14lamnc1]

i think its the slippery platform, too much chalk on the floor which is just unfortunate

[@sealwithawkwardness3951]

lol! But man, I'd hate to not make lifts because of shoe slippage.

[@davidportej]

why can't they just let someone clean the damn platform

[@Pazurjon]

@@14lamnc1 no shit

[@bunzen0knatzen]

I like how they cleaned the platform AFTER Meso slipped twice.

[@kmidst_fn5225]

Dude, if a lifter misses because of a dirty platform they should let them do the lift again. That just isn't fair.

Please do this for every big competition. It's the only way to watch this. It's either this or I end up not watching the comps. Edits and commentary on point.

[@davidklausen1316]

Yang zhe also pointed to the platform when he failed his C&J, indicating that it was slippery. Seems like they weren't doing a good job of wiping off the chalk.

[@cbn1362]

Lu xiaojun playing 4D chess to make slippery shoes so meso misses his attempt to overtake Tian Taos record.

[@WeightliftingHouse]

This is the only conspiracy we need

[@BalSagoth]

These commentaries are so entertaining. Appreciate it, Seb.

[@cherries4life387]

Doesn't the platform usually get swept if it's like that... or why doesn't one of Meso's coaches ask for it to be swept after his 2nd attempt? (I'm just speculating the chalk caused the slipping btw)

[@hartmusk88]

I think that on the first slip, it wasn't the platform, just his foot wasn't correctly positioned, you can see on the slow-mo.

[@XXLRebel]

He switched shoes. Maybe that has something to do with it. Really weird.

Is there a difference other than the colour between the black and white shoes?

[@Rutam10]

why did meso move to the 102kg? i felt like he had so much more potential as a 96kg lifter!

[@MaCo4LyF]

he didnt move uust could t be bothered cutting for this competition

[@WeightliftingHouse]

Yes Lav is right. He weighed in at around 99kg, and fancied eating nice food and feeling strong over making the cut.

[@gilamesh3417]

He's already qualified. As Seb says, enjoy some food before the big lead up.

[@zennappi]

Becausr Meso is big boy who likes ice cream.

[@matthewmckee6289]

He didn’t. He just didn’t need to cut as he’s already in. No point in cutting when it’s not necessary.

[@davisdia9315]

Did you see Lashas trainig PR-s 270+225, Insane!!!

[@alfonsorodriguez6437]

Meso needs a different brand of shoe or clean the platform before lifting.

[@elliotrowshan2669]

"Feet on legs"

he’s luring China/tiantao missing these snatches

[@supernoodles908]

Other lifters have slipped during this comp

[@andrewgordon777]

That's why I clean the chalk off the platform when training.

[@TheSkatingreptile]

Rasool Matomedi had a remarkable performance though. Highest total ever in the -102 class. 227 C&J is biiiiiiig. I hope we see how he weighed in bc if he's just a -96 who weighed heavy... Iran missed out big not sending him to competitions the past few years.

[@Edgarisftw]

He's young. This 227kg C&j he did was an all time pr. Previous best was 220 which was done just a couple of months ago. He is a 96kg lifter and im sure will go past 230 in no time.

[@99strength92]

new lasha records btw

[@alanaliyev456GT]

Im happy for 3th attempt (174) nobody desserve à ”zero”” its often a management mistake

[@RockyBilbao21811]

If Ilyin had not finished his sports career. I could calmly fight if I continued to train.

[@GONZOftw2k]

Dear Seb, Please, for the love of god, make your barbels and plates and sets available again because I have not lifted any weight in 5 days and gyms will be closed until 30th of June here. I am ready to give you all my money and promise you my firstborn. Cheers

[@WeightliftingHouse]

Are you Europe or USA? I'm assuming mainland EU if you are heading back into a lockdown? We have tonnes of our elite barbell on their way, but no more plates i'm afraid. In the USA we are in stock.

[@GONZOftw2k]

@@WeightliftingHouse Unfortunately yes, Germany. I guess the plates won't be available in the near future? Well a barbell would be a starting point! What is your experience on the delivery time from the UK to Germany? On the page they are still out of stock

[@WeightliftingHouse]

@@GONZOftw2k Germany should be fine for us. The new bars will be arriving in around two weeks. The best thing would probably be to email [e-mail] and Nick will help sort everything. He will be able to keep a bar secured for you for when they arrive. We do still have some 5s, 15s, and 20kg plates in stock if those help in the meantime!

[@GONZOftw2k]

[@bobibufi1389]

@@GONZOftw2k please, for the love of god, can you not just buy them from zillions of other local suppliers that have them (like German Eleiko site). They have your items ready in stock, you don't have to pay for international delivery, and also wait longer for international delivery, maybe you can drive and collect your items tomorrow. Just use your brain

[@aidanivesdavis]

isnt it “mee-so”?

[@smolboyi]

Me SOOOOOOOOO

[@janci9047]

It´s not about shoes guys.. When you´re not absolutely sure about the jerk you tend to step mostly on the front foot and move your body backwards a bit from the bar. This creates more pressure pushing your back foot backwards and since there´s no such downward pressure on that foot it tends to slip. Seen so many of these even in Romaleos 2.

[@JaredTG.]

I'm not a weightlifter but that makes sense. I could see how the weight could push back if not in the right spot.

[@janci9047]

It happens all the time. If there was a side view of his jerk we could se that he pushed himself back from the bar. It happens all the time even to the best lifters

[@Truthcanbeconfusing]

MESO NEEDS TO LITERALLY CLEAN THE PLATFORM BEDORE LIFTING BECAUSE HE WAS SLIPPING. MAYBE THE COMPETITORS DROPPED TOO MUCH CHALK ON THE PLATFORM.

[@io3204]

4 red plates plus collars snatch has happened, no need to mention by whom I guess 😁

[@jpluo]

His first name is Elbakh, why call him Meso? 102kg is not Olympic class, can he be qualified to Tokyo?

[@sprint-shorts]

what a joke the floor is made for slipping - organizers must follow a starndard for floor

[@Plecakofil]

Yeah I don’t know what was going on lol

[@playerkingofnewyorkcity2581]

@@jaxonsevero1045 M102 isn’t a Olympic category so it’s not as stacked as M81. Also M96’s best snatch was also 175 by Tian because he just casually missed the 180.

[@supernoodles908]

@@jaxonsevero1045 let's be honest though. Messo could have lifted more than that. Just messed up those snatches technique wise. Strength is more than what was shown

[@snoaa6141]

The three asian lifters in 96 people were most apprehensive about were probably tian, moradi, and meso. Both tian and moradi are coming off injuries and lifting carefully and meso missed weight - then of course 102 isn’t as stacked as 81. Really weird that it took 3 weight classes to beat 180 but then again, Lu Delin in 81 did a 186 snatch in China, which was fucking insane. Weird Comp. definitely fun to watch
