Reeves crushed it in the clean and jerk, too. She was ON today.

[@edward9]

Goog Lord... she is so smooth and fluid. Making 118kgs look like 100lbs. Amazing!!!!!

[@zazathebeast]

All Hail the Goog Lord, the One who is smooth and fluid.

[@rustyelder]

she looks INCREDIBLE!!!! You can feel her confidence.

[@scottessery100]

She is incredible

[@nickwysoczanskyj785]

She had more. That was nuts. She smoked it.

[@user-ii7xc1ry3x]

Reeves: Oh, is it time for my attempt? Alrightie *proceeds to turn gravity off*

[@scottessery100]

Good grief she’s incredible

[@MarvelParsons700]

That would make a great film. Skunk Works develops some kind of technology that manipulates gravity. They use it to cheat in sports. @1:30 kzbin.info/www/bejne/nX6kfpt9qs2Letk Come to think of it that would fuel too many conspiracy theories. None of the media companies would make a film like that.

[@MarvelParsons700]

That would make a great film. The plot would be Skunkworks invented technology to manipulate gravity and used it during competitions. at 1:30 kzbin.info/www/bejne/nX6kfpt9qs2Letk Come to think of it that's too unrealistic.

[@newmankidman5763]

The last snatch of 118 kg by Olivia was so beautifully executed that it brought tears of joy to my eyes.

[@jmcsquared18]

Beauty, technique, confidence, insane power, and always consistent... Of all our athletes, I think the USA should be most proud of Olivia Reeves.

[@patricklang7162]

Nah. Hampton Morris. And I hope you don’t mean “beauty” in the way that she looks. She looks like a bridge troll. Her technique is a thing of beauty

[@Wisey_83]

That Reeves perfomance was absolutely unreal. She was just ON it for the whole session.

[@kas3dot0]

Another incredible session and very dramatic. So happy for Olivia. USA actually have a real chance at medaling at the Olympics now.

[@bgmail6858]

She is no doubt favorite by wide margin for gold now. Neither silver nor bronze in this comp will compete in Paris.

[@alistairwillock7266]

Medalling? Try _Gold_ Medalling. Palacios is the only one with a shot of beating her in the snatch (with a _perfect_ day on her part, and likely also requiring Reeves to miss). And no one who will be in the field is in the same league as Reeves in the clean-and-jerk. I'm just praying for good health for her between now and Paris. Nothing else will stop her.

[@davidtatro7457]

Wow! I do not think l have ever seen an athlete crush three snatches in a row with such speed and precision while also beating their PR. I bet she could have done at least 3 or 4kg more. What a performance!

[@charmingdevil84]

Those weights comically look fake when she lifts them. That's how good she is ❤

[@e2rqey]

forreal. Once she's under it, it looks like she's just standing up. It's wild

[@adrianaavila3019]

Una vez que acomoda el peso lo sube fácil por que tiene mucha fuerza en la pierna y en el core

[@vaibhav1100]

Exactly, you realize these weights are insanely heavy when other competitors lift them...

[@danielschechter8130]

Olivia Reeves lifts 118 kg as easily as I would lift five lbs. And that thousand-watt smile! What power!

[@davidzhang8764]

That 118 looked like an opener

[@johngeorge9423]

Wow! So much more in tank. Speed speed speed. Incredible. Let's go!

[@EEWombat]

The amount of power she still has in reserve has got to be intimidating to the rest of the field.... 😮

[@alistairwillock7266]

She had the world record snatch in her today, and another 5kg+ in the clean-and-jerk. And she'll likely be better in Paris. Her _trajectory_ would have been enough for the Chinese to not send Liao Guifang, even _if_ she'd made her lifts to win today. Now? There is no version of reality in which the Chinese will send Liao. Also, this qualification process, and the corresponding athlete-pool restrictions are an absolute travesty. This World Cup will end up being _TEN_ times the competition that the Olympics will be, and that's just wrong.

[@EEWombat]

Have to agree - this World Cup is, for weightlifting, the competition the Olympics should have been. That Liao won't get to go to Paris, for one example among many, is a crying shame. With only 3 athletes China certainly won't send her now, which robs us all of the rematch. I like the top 10 qualifiers process. I do not like the 3 athlete cap, or the one per country cap. Only one of Rahmat and Rizki? Why ruin this for all of us?!? Olivia certainly looked like she had a 121/152 in there today. That said, her caution and execution kept all the pressure on her opponents. (I doubt she'll be opening at 112 again for a while though 😂)

[@Treegrower]

She made that look easy!

[@mbolton845]

No Sleeves disrespecting gravity today.

[@benoitpellet1657]

She really does make it look effortless!

[@malcolmhales8181]

Just looks so fluid. Amazing lift

[@ahmarcamacho8404]

Gold medal incoming

[@WinstonCorneilius]

Between her and Hampton, USA is looking good finally

[@josegiron7008]

[@magnus9165]

Reeves has such great clean technique. It is great to watch such efficient and effective movement.

[@SuperYoungjb]

Olivia and Hampton Morris are revolutionizing the sport of Olympic weightlifting for Americans.

[@e2rqey]

I feel like me and Olivia Reeves have a lot in common

[@JustFeltLikeListenin]

cue Nancy Wilson singing "These Dreams"....every moment I'm awake the further I'm away.... I can say that I have DREAMT of snatching so extraordinarily well!

[@SMHS2004]

Gotta love the title 😂😂😂

[@stalin1909]

Never been so excited for The US weightlifting. Can’t believe im actually saying the sentence…..The sport has been for so long looked at,as a secondary Competition business.

[@uliwidmaier5192]

Can you guys put the full session on KZbin? It was so awesome, one of the most epic sessions I've ever seen.

[@mambutuomalley2260]

She looks like she's not even really trying. Mind-boggling. Absolutely beyond impressive.

[@iielysiumx5811]

some insane lifts from reeves

[@Mrbits01]

Great lift. Also, always nice seeing Pyrros. I'd also be a happy confident camper if Pyrros was on my team and encouraged me😄

[@grzywi19]

she is just unbelievable. She was capable of 5kg more on that day easily I would guess

[@alistairwillock7266]

In the _snatch._ Imagine how much more she might have had in the tank in the C&J?!? She made her second _and_ third lifts with mis-timed cleans. Nuts.

[@ironchin17]

While I love this result for Olivia, it's almost a shame that this happened here, in front of a relatively small audience of weightlifting fans. While this does make her a strong favourite for gold at the Olympics, and an Olympic gold would be amazing regardless, imagine the hype if this sort of battle had happened on the Olympic stage.

[@jeffw1267]

No way is she a favorite for gold. If she could win any medal, that would be acceptable. Let's not go crazy here.

[@alistairwillock7266]

​​@@jeffw1267Are you on crack? She just crushed the strongest field of the quad here, and North Korea and China won't even be in the Olympics now. Who, exactly, is going to beat her at the Olympics? Seb and Max both said during the session that Reeves is likely to win both the snatch and C&J in Paris _on her opening lifts!!!_ Leaving Seb aside, do you think you know weightlifting better than _Max?!?_ I think Palacios can make Reeves need to make a second snatch for the win in Paris... Other than that, no one in the field will be able to trouble her even that much.

[@ironchin17]

@jeffw1267 North Korea are ineligible for Olympic qualification. China have the number one ranked lifter in all five Olympic categories, but they can only send three women, and the other four Chinese women are more dominant in their respective categories, so China will almost certainly not send Liao Guifang. Olivia totalled 268 here, the next biggest total from 2024 is 246. Of the remaining eligible lifters only Angie Palacios and Loredana Toma have surpassed 250 this cycle, Toma did it with 256 in 2022 and has been steadily downhill ever since. Angie is Olivia's biggest threat, she did 261 a year ago and has mostly been around 245-250 since then, possibly saving energy. Regardless, Olivia has consistently been on an upward trend. Anything can happen, but my money is firmly on the American.

[@davidd5712]

What a great kid I hope she sweeps golds in the Olympics

[@Keeks.island]

Definitely a smart move & choice in numbers to secure her spot on the podium. But I think she was definitely capable of 120! Just so strong and effortless! 💪🏽

The fact that she doesn’t move an inch on that last lift is just remarkable. Extraordinary athlete!

Lets clean up the title of these videos guys, we don't need to be delving into her personal life.

It's you 😂 Her proportions make her look taller than she is. She's actually shorter than Liao Guifang when you see them standing in a lineup. And she's _way_ shorter than Toma.

@@e2rqey What 😂 At 5'9 she'd be in the 81s (Or she'd be wayyy skinnier). If you have access to the full session, you can see her standing next to Giulia Miserendino who's listed as 170 cm (5'7) and she looks significantly shorter. She's 5'5 at the most.

It seems like some combination of an issue with her right arm, and confidence. Also, she may just have passed her peak. Toma is another example of someone who couldn't come with 20 kilos of her best performances from a couple of years ago.
