Shi Zhiyong Arrives At the World Champs | Worlds '23 | Pt. 1

Watch the World Championships | tv.weightlifti...
Team Weightlifting House has arrived at the World Weightlifting Championships 2023 in Riyadh! Athletes are arriving, the tension is rising, and we are here to bring you as much weightlifting as possible.
In part one we saw team China show up for their first session, including the return of the king, Shi Zhiyong. Kuo Hsing-chun showed up to do some powers, Mihaela Cambei showed the other -49s who's boss and Rahmat Abdullah power cleaned 90% of his own world record. This and much more in part 1.

I love this guys coverage, professional and analytical.

[@buffetline2605]

For sure. This channel is amazing. And I don’t even Olympic lift.

I love getting the training hall footage, feels like the build up to Christmas or something, so exciting

[@iluvyunie]

I prefer this because weightlifting doesn't result in arguments over my autistic behaviour with my partner's family and putting on a kilo of fat 😂

[@jakesimpson8952]

from myself and all others that love the sport of weightlifting, we thank you Seb and weightlifting house for bringing this amazing footage!

[@rescavone6690]

[@Robdutton91]

As much as I’d enjoy it I can’t see it happening, the sika lads are more off the cuff and not afraid to say whatever pops into their heads, probably not what WH is going for

[@baboomd]

I think we need to discuss about pulling stance. Shi zhiyong uploaded instagram, He had discussed pulling stance with other weightlifters. Actually He had been wide pulling stance until 2021. After injury and now, I think Shi has standard pulling stance. Which is the best pulling stance? wide? or narrow?

[@lubanks6278]

I think that comes down to the individual as everyones hips vary. Sometimes ethnic background can be a good indicator of which stance to use as similar ethnic backgrounds generally have similar hip structure. Here's a video that covers squat stance but the concepts easily transfer over to weight lifting. I can't find the video where they talk about how the chinese weight lifters use a certain stance because they generally have similar anatomy, but it's out there if you look for it.

[@radoraan5272]

Vamos México!

[@andreg1860]

I don't know if it's me but I paid for the stream and can't forward to a different section as the video never catches up with the audio.. it's just frozen and it's really frustrating when trying to watch the competition.. is it just me?

[@honeyjones7557]

Will you be posting the weightlifting categories on KZbin later on for people who can’t buy a ticket

[@theblackpanda5860]

10:35 What is the advantage of competing in a B or C session?

[@thorthewolf8801]

Weaker lifters, you can guarantee that you will be probably the last to lift, giving you more rest time. Also, coaches might miss that you have a higher total from a lower group as its rare, so they might not realize they have to hit higher numbers than just beating others who are in their group.

[@dan-wh]

The main thing is control. If you guarantee you lift last after everyone else has finished, you have much more certainty about the timing of your attempts - you can time your warmups more precisely and no one can use tactics to mess with you in between your attempts. Of course, it means following yourself four times between snatch and C&J...

[@AfferbeckBeats]

@@dan-whThere's also a complete lack of control once the A group is on. They all have a target to hit and there's nothing you can do but hope they don't outlift you.

[@dan-wh]

​@@AfferbeckBeats Yes that is of course true - I'm talking about control over the athlete's own performance, which is why I can see the logic sometimes (e.g. hitting a record or a required qualification total)

[@thirdsapol878]

It’s possible that some Asian big name who are not in the A group may be there to show up only, then withdraw to compete in Asian Games.

[@dan-wh]

The IWF asked anyone just weighing in to declare as such (they are on the start list with 60kg entry totals) but it's possible that some people didn't get the memo.
