That was a fantastic video! Very well produced. Much appreciation to you, Derek. Toma is a Taurus, and she definitely is a bull at its strongest and most determined. Amazing woman.

[@nathanly2878]

Just placed an order today. Too bad you guys don't ship to Canada.. I'll have to drive to the United States to go pick it up ヽ(ಠ_ಠ) ノ

romania is not soviet...pls stop saying dumb sh*t online...it just makes everyone looks dumb

[@leighmackay7486]

Well done, Seb. Toma is the face of determination. Her volume of lifts is, like all elite lifters, off the hook. Her strength is undeniable. She's an inspiration to train harder.

Don’t forget her 60mg of stanazolol

Lolz at Seb just glossing over 2012-2016 "wasn't anything special" instead of adding her stanozolol ban "story"... 🤣

[@andrewso781]

thank you WH for these films. Heartfelt narration, magnificent story

[@putsoff]

Amazing video! Thanks WH team!

[@elguapodelmonte215]

Toma looks unbelievable in training, she is tough, and determined, her snatch is the perfect technique, for her size she is incredibly strong, although like it was mentioned in the video, she has a problem with the clean n jerk, the clean part is easy enough, she has the weight under control, leg strength fenomenal, but there is a "clear" what you could say a "double movement" in her wrists, where the weight goes-up and then the wrists sort of "give", and then she corrects the weight, the weight is somehow transferred back a touch, and not in the perfect alignment she probably would want, throwing the entire lift out of equilibrium, sometimes missing the lift, and not lifting at her optimum level. Wrist & forearm training, "rotator cuff" strengthening exercises. Gold Medal Toma.

Brilliant video Seb!

Excellent video! Loredana Toma, what a fenomenal gal, as far as strenght, techniques and fighter spirit goes!

[@psimuv]

Loredana Toma is, by far, my role model for weightlifting. Loving her always. Fromuasa.

[@nuperer]

i know it's a very debatable topic. But imo the ,,Toma Shuffle'' is holding her back in the Jerk.

[@thorthewolf8801]

You have to be delusional to not conclude that it is holding her back. Her cleans are effortless.

[@bigguy4u989]

@@thorthewolf8801 I got called an armchair expert for pointing that out lol. People refuse to admit that even the best have room for improvement

Great video , anybody knows what knee wraps she´s wearing, the black ones ?

[@TheAxis1275]

This was beautiful!

[@gshaindrich]

why skip from "nothing overly special" to "2016", without any mention of that being the time where she was banned because of PEDs?

She works the coating off of her weights, good god she is strong

[@mcculloughmethod6912]

*gets popped* 💉 *strength goes up* 📈 “how did she do it!?” 🤯

[@rather-reverend]

Late 2021 she was training at Gleis10 in Winterthur - my crossfit box and a regional weightlifting center. She was fun, friendly and a pleasure to be around - I didn't initially know who she was, just that she was doing ... stuff. And then I saw her training and sort had to clean and jerk my jaw off the floor! I have two giant dogs - she wasn't too sure about them, but her trainer was a huge fan and eventually got her to make friends. I wish to heck I'd had the guts to ask her to sign my weight belt ...

[@feliciacoffey6832]

You'll always have the memories. A glimpse of greatness can be powerful.

It is a great video Seb and I love what your doing with weightlifting house. But don’t forget uk 🇬🇧 athletes too 😊

[@MikeCable-hl4gx]

You were trash talking her not long ago, I told you the exact opposite! Drug scandal you kept saying, she is the best if all drugs were out or in!!! She is so genetically gifted and focused that’s why she is the GOAT in her division and routinely beats lifters in much heavier weight classes!

[@SirenaWomanWarrior]

i think it's just a matter of time before she hits those heavier numbers. She needs to build up her strength for those numbers and that weight class, but she'll get there very soon.

[@babushka2588]

i pray for an ounce of her athleticism

[@analquiz]

Nice

[@CrombolTerrison]

I thought Shi’s record fell? Isn’t the 73kg world record 200 now and not 198?

[@LePleb]

You ever snatch so heavy that the paint starts coming off the plates?

[@arls9430]

I'm sorry but the intro had me laughing my butt off at work.

[@slothpatronus2704]

incredible snatches are no laughing matter

[@laffo1980]

I don’t understand why so many incremental weight increases.??!! If you max out singles at 120 then 105-110-115 are still going to be heavy lifts . Why do they do this ?? I feel like it’s such a waste of lifts but please feel free to educate me

[@antirl]

I mentioned this in another video. It's incredibly frustrating to watch her in training sessions and destroy a world record. We all know she's hit those weights in training hundreds of times. Yet, when she's in competition, she's making lighter weight look harder? It's like it's a show.

[@boccobadz]

Probably difference between being juiced up to the gills and cleared for in competition testing. Same story with Lu, he never popped in comp, yet out of comp he slipped...

[@maquiavelo911]

WE MISS LU

[@______-im2cn]

jesus christ in 2016 her gear started to kick .lol they you talk about it is like its majic.

[@user-ns1kx2wl4x]

[@juanb8073]

“You’ve probably heard of her incredible snatch.” I guess there isn’t a way of saying this that isn’t able to be interpreted in a way that isn’t weightlifting related.

[@thechosenone93]

No you’re just immature

[@highlightedcomment]

No b.s. just doing it

[@StefanoDenicci]

Is this a natural strength? Seems incredible that women can lift these huge weights above their head. I would struggle getting 140 Kg off the ground, I think. 😂

[@sereysothe.a]

she got popped for stanozolol a few years ago. but to be fair her chinese opposition are likely on much more than that

[@fg786]

A lot of PEDs probably.

[@barath4545]

Yup, like all of them and most pro athletes in general.

[@magicjohnsins]

her PED use seems more effective than everyone else's

[@chucklynch5505]

Why don't you ever talk about the 800 lb gorilla or the elephant in the room. She's doing this because she learned how not to get popped. This sport won't be Olympic Weightlifting after Paris. It will be gone. And that is a tragedy

[@loluskekus]

What is the reason to snatch so much just days before competition?

[@Xainlrd]

I wonder what those quads can do to some watermelons 🍉😏🔥
