[@weightedsumwl]

Sika Strenght Basic conversation: Fitz: Bread Eoin: yeah, great Bread Fitz: Phenomenal Bread

[@terrencebeers7105]

[@BigJamesGraham]

We have a payper here on bread

[@ev1bl]

[@seanikan]

Unbelievable bread.

[@Ahmed-vk8pv]

Yess finally more content to procrastinate studying with

[@mattaddison4794]

Amen

[@rubenb8678]

hahaha same for me

[@weightedsumwl]

The sirens are WADA looking for fitz again

[@webapp31]

Can't stress how much I enjoy these full session reactions! Please never stop doing them!!

[@NotLuigi]

We need an official term for that two bits of chalk perfectly outlining the sack after a lifter adjusts their singlet

[@JD-et6yo]

Chalk flop

[@jupiterman_]

Good job, boys. Your coverage is the only way I'll watch these comps. Major networks should pay you to do this live.

[@stephenmorgan3100]

The black rifle coffee names 😂😂😂

[@benlobner7070]

From the sound of the police siren, I guess you recorded this in the New York Ambessy of Sikastan again.

[@chrismanich3063]

@38:45 reverse turtle lol, so basically what tian got on his back, moradi got on his front. Also, i find it funny how moradi always looks mildly uncomfortable in his lift

[@DanielVillalobos18]

He always looks like he's dying but somehow make the lifts 😂

[@furtsmagee1513]

I think it would be really funny to watch you guys commentate on a powerlifting meet or even equipped powerlifting

[@chriswr_]

1:25 for the start of the video

[@powderedtoastman6265]

What sports does long limbs/short torso favor? That'd be a good video to do; which morphologies are best for certain sports.

[@NotLuigi]

Seconding this, that sounds like an interesting video

[@TheMortalKombatent]

deadlift

[@aditwani6562]

Deadlifting in PL

[@klydeflores7909]

Striking sports such as boxing and muay thai are great for long limbed athletes

[@matthewmckee6289]

Boxing and some other fighting sports. Pretty sure throwing sports also benefit, but not 100% sure on that one.

[@adamcarlton3742]

"He's like a turtle reversed" 😂😂😂

[@kmidst_fn5225]

Yes! I've been waiting for you guys to review this comp :)

[@lvortiz87]

LOVEEE these videos, boys! 🤙🤙 for the next one, how about 2011 world Championships 105kg class (Akkaev and Klokov!!) Or the 2019 world Championships 73kg!

[@pannonianfit1582]

all klokov competitions were great for coverage

[@nickmunro8660]

56:33 A+ to you, that's the first time I spit out my food due to laughter in a long time

[@36Kalb]

Are you guys safe? I swear there is always the sound of sirens in the background

[@alexanderohgren1403]

wada

[@furtsmagee1513]

When are we going to get a video where fitz goes over his sarms stack?

[@maxm3757]

Would love to see the 73 session from 2019

[@GavinHeff]

second this

[@RobertoRivaldi]

Life is again more complete

[@nickmunro8660]

53:00 "That's not Boady's dad. Who's that man?" You put some respect on my man Greg Chin, one of the best Canadian Coaches

[@14lamnc1]

Great video guys, would love to see 2019 world championships 73kg

[@AfferbeckBeats]

"He definitely does direct arm work" 15:36 "Why are his arms so big?" Settle down Michaela!

[@ferg]

Please make more of these!!!

[@tuikol]

You should do 2014 94kg next

[@raptors4444]

42:00 is Rivas pulling 201KG with no hookgrip??

[@raptors4444]

sorry 41:53 you see it

[@GavinHeff]

@@raptors4444 looks like it. that's ridiculous

[@rileyrfitzpatrick]

Interesting to hear you guys touch on Modafinil. It actually promotes plasticity in certain types of neurons. That's the tricky thing about drugs that affect the brain, you're toying with a massive, billion variable, self-referential computing machine. Anything that messes with the hypothalamus is probably more risky than is worth for an athlete.

[@vintagelifts]

Peak moradi was something else man who the hell could open at over 180 nowadays

[@diveshkr4127]

No one, he was better than Ilya in terms of numbers at 94, from that comparison he was partly unstoppable at 94/96, taking into consideration his 205 snatch and 242 kg in training, no one touches his numbers in completion let alone training.

[@vintagelifts]

@@diveshkr4127 Moradi is certainly a better 94, but not an overall better weightlifter imo

[@trtnec]

Everyone knows the Chinese are on gear, or maybe even some super-secret gear that makes their diving splashes super small too (maybe beta blocker for first 10 seconds, then on 11th second huge jumping power, then beta blocking on 12th second again?), but the reason people generally don't chalk up their ascension to drugs is because they didn't suddenly come out of nowhere like Italy did (though I doubt Italy is suddenly good because of drug use, they always used drugs too like you said). China on the other hand has always been good at weightlifting and often the best at other strength to bodyweight sports like gymnastics, and their weightlifting totals are actually worse now than in the past. It's just that the rest of the world fell off even harder in this era compared to China.

[@matthewmckee6289]

I mean the benefits China has are just so vast. It’s not just the gear (although granted I would almost certainly say they have some of the best developed gear out of any other nation). Massive population pool to pull the most genetically gifted athletes from, plus the infrastructure to raise these athletes from a very young age to reach their pinnacle performance, or as close to as possible. I would say they’re probably have the closest to ideal system possible on a paper standpoint. Seb recently talked about the Italians too and how they had a very large amount of money put into their weightlifting about 10 years ago, and now that investment is coming into fruition. They also said they put a lot of focus on treating their athletes like humans and not just machines, which I would imagine also plays an absolutely massive part. Judging by what they’re doing now, I would say they have the best system in practicality now (assuming all that to be true), especially for the longevity of their athletes. Humans just aren’t machines, at least the vast vast majority aren’t (ahem Lu).

[@projectgowther2562]

The imitation of tians double dip kills me every time 🤣

[@daviddreisigmeyer726]

Can you do a “Weightlifting Coaches React to 2015 75kgs World Weightlifting Championship”

[@Picton98]

Would love to know why Eoin doesnt compete anymore? Even if its just at local or national meets... Just curious

[@wrf85]

react or comment to anything, it is a delight to listen to you lads :)

[@eotulioo]

Was waiting for this, but the start is kinda fucked lol

[@roguebrogue4927]

Laundry-folding content right here! Keep up the good work and wit, lads

[@toximan2008]

41:54 bruh is Rivas not hookgripping???

[@mellpear4773]

Love these videos, but I am now way more self-conscious about the proportions of my body and limbs

[@smolmaninthepeakdistrict5069]

[@hiramatangi1736]

Great video lads, fucken hilarious commentary!

[@albanzon]

73kg 2019?

[@nicomagee8387]

YESS!!! Finally

[@Bertone4884]

When you say you don't like no foot stuff, do you mean for in-competition use or also as a technique/corrective exercise? Greg from Catalyst Athletics isn't crazy about it either as he says doing it wrong leads to more issues, curious what your take is. Also, love your insights on competition day, would love to see a video on it if you haven't already done one. I find for myself the meet gets wayeasier once the Snatch portion is over and I would love some psychology on it. Thanks guys, appreciate the content as always! Edit: Mind expanding on the grip width mentioned for the Snatch as well?

[@powderedtoastman6265]

Why is the first minute and 24 seconds missing?

[@taylorprobets4661]

In the lead up to this Nicolae Onica did a beautiful 232kg cnj in training

[@yahyakahya5326]

Yes.

[@powderedtoastman6265]

Could you explain why/how a wider clean grip is inferior?

[@powderedtoastman6265]

I ask this because my coach was all for the wider clean grip width.

[@trtnec]

@@powderedtoastman6265 it's not inferior, in both snatch and clean, you should generally grip the bar as wide as comfortable without losing too much pulling power. However, catching the clean is also harder with a wide grip so you need to either catch with finger tips or bring the hands in a bit on the catch, or just start narrower off the ground to begin with

[@Mcseveneys]

I do love a reaction video

[@Pi03k]

[@Alejandro-te2nt]

The Iranian lifter is not doing number 1 signal because he thinks he's number 1. He's attributing the lift to the 1 God of the universe Allah☝🏼

[@rul1175]

If you're going to make videos like this don't start the video by killing the ending/ telling the winner.

[@FernandoGonzalez-xh5hz]

Moradi hit 242 in a competition

[@christianwijaya6906]

First

[@AnthonyGarcia-sy3yk]

If don't get caught you not cheating guys. Ok we all know they do juice (china) but they barely get caught so till we get there don't see the point to bring up every time it come across as straight hating, and taking on account that you good friend say he juice and is cool with that you two should be nicer about it ..
