Svetlana Podobedova (KAZ) Wins 75kg Weightlifting Gold - London 2012 Olympics

Highlights from the ExCeL as Svetlana Podobedova (KAZ) wins gold in the women's 75kg weightlifting event at the London 2012 Olympic Games (3 August 2012).
The silver medal was won by Natalya Zabolotnaya (Russian Fed.) with bronze being awarded to Iryna Kulesha (Belarus).
Although men's weightlifting has always been on the programme of the Olympic Games - except for at the 1900, 1908 and 1912 editions -- women started to participate only at the 2000 Games in Sydney.
The Olympic weightlifting programme has evolved greatly over time. Today, weightlifters compete in snatch and clean and jerk, and are placed according to their total combined result. From the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, men have competed in eight weight categories and women in seven. This total of 15 events remains unchanged.

Наша Светлана одна, кто видно, что женщина. Остальные двое - как мужчины на вид

[@katieonlyusernameavailable]

I was there. All 3 medallists were later disqualified for doping and Lidia Valentin was awarded gold.

[@Julian1984Iran]

Exactly. Its a shame that many Russians even those who emigrated to Kazakstan don't receive a life time ban for their disgusting unfair sports behavior.

[@katieonlyusernameavailable]

@@Julian1984Iran Yes! IIRC Podobedova had previous been banned by Russia for doping, hence her switch to competing for Kazakhstan.

[@negativegames9679]

Man, Kazakstan has some great Weightlifters.

[@fortnitemania5086]

All drug cheats

[@siddhantbaliyan2746]

Drug cheats they are

[@sanhyaleckning5286]

listen to her voice bro she is clearly on steroids like a lot of their athletes

[@showt1me133]

So is everyone else 😀

[@alexeypankov1826]

Хороший подиум - Казахстан, Россия, Беларусь :)

[@user-ug2qz7ln3n]

Золото Лондона-2012 в этом весе (до 75 кг ) теперь у Лидии Валентин ( Испания) - которая была 4-й в 2012 году, после повторной проверки на Допинг ( и Дисквалификации) - всех 3-х призеров Игр-2012 в весе 75 кг !!!!!!

[@RandomPokecenter]

that manly voice

[@JaneThompson356]

+RandomPokecenter true but she's amazing.. whatever

[@bobinmon2970]

Speaking Russian and similar languages makes all women sound gruff

[@Julian1984Iran]

She is massively doped with androgen steroids.

[@cmgs7]

@@Julian1984Iran Was she reprimanded for doping? I feel like I read a news article saying that

[@randomguy21-87]

All 3 in this podium had their medal taken away by IOC for doping (1st tested positive for winstrol, 2nd and 3rd for turinabol)

[@SamalSatayeva]

Yes! Svetlana is super

[@Miketheboy1]

voice like a boss

[@kraftsportNO]

The testosterone is strong in this one.. What a joke. Is it this hard to clean up weightlifting ?

[@AA-gx4ok]

hahaha, all top 3 disqualified years later.... but I dunno, I didn't see any women in that video

[@andrewpaul7363]

the winner reminds me of the singer boy george!

[@ibm650]

Svetlana is really beautiful!

[@DrAL00isin]

There are always those who cry steroids everytime they see anyone with a more muscular physique than they have and is just childish insecurity. When you see women like this its not even a question of if but how much and how long they have used them. Nothing subtle here. They can train on them and then clean up just in time for the testing at the competition.

[@AlexOjideagu2]

yes ALL THREE have been banned for steroid abuse. People cry steroids because it's obvious to everyone with a brain.

[@user-tt2nf6ye6r]

Привет Света!

[@royaberjew5546]

[@marleneroman4439]

I sorry she is or he is?

That's not fair , those ain't a woman

[@user-sc9jb4yk6g]

Светлана Молочинка Землячка!!!

[@mrericmandude]

I believe this is the women's 75kg class, not 75+, for anyone wondering.

[@TheNUR1977]

Великая!

[@andrewpaul7363]

what a surprise all 3 of them have failed drug tests!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@miharu060786]

I remember hearing Podobedova's voice for the first time :D Was wondering when they will dsq her :D

[@missnoble4355]

andrew paul LOL IKR. Just take one look and u can see they're doping. I mean like really, their hairline is waaayyy baccckkk fat far away. 😂

[@vilena9664]

[@stevenbaeyens2652]

I think Svetlana Podobedova is pretty hot. Am i a freak?

Natalya is the most attractive one by far :)

[@og01771]

Damn do there vocal cords get more masculine to??! They all sound like men

[@bobinmon2970]

if you spoke Russian, you too would sound like that. I have a very feminine girl friend from Ukraine who sounds really rough when talking Ukr or Russian.

[@AndOneAndTwoAndFive]

Only the 3rd place has woman voice, somebody prove their gender?

[@bobinmon2970]

Speaking Russian and similar languages makes all women sound gruff

[@AlexOjideagu2]

All 3 medalists have been banned for steroid abuse

[@nhanlehoang6603]

but the 3rd has the most menly face, btw all them used lots of roid and had much more testosterone than you

[@MastersOfInfinity]

The strongest, manliest women barely edge out the men's featherweight division. Women, are you even trying?

[@AlexOjideagu2]

Plus they are all now banned for steroid abuse

Natalya is woman ?

[@AlexOjideagu2]

on steroids, all 3 medalists have been banned

[@evilflowx]

all three medalists were subsequently popped. lol it's no wonder...they all look like they've been somewhat masculinized by the steroids they took. you can see it in their face.

[@qtpie2630]

[@stealinhorses]

wow, totally sounds like a dude

[@user-tq4ig6ej1y]

все равно дуру поймали на допинге и отобрали медаль. ушла с позором
