Ilya Ilyin - Isabel at 70Kg

[@flahexer]

To all you guys whining about his range of motion: You do realize this is also 10Kg heavier than "prescribed", do you? Give this beast the respect he deserves and continue to work on your 70Kg snatch 1RM. Thank you.

[@soonkt77]

This guy is Ilya Ilyin!!! Who da fuck gives a shit about crossfit or Isabel at this point anyway! He's the best!

[@nastied]

For context. This guy snatches nearly 200 kg in competiton. Cardio is not his thing, strength is.

[@Funke832]

im a crossfiter and for the first Isabel he do is impressive,i learn a lot of Ilya, and he's one of my favourite athletes,respect for the champion.

[@sw8053]

whats cool is that even a monster like Ilyin may not train like this, he may not even agree with it, but I bet he can definitely appreciate the level of strength and endurance that goes into crossfit. awesome video

[@robs9833]

This is obviously Ilya at his lowest with a one year gap from OLY. I honestly think he would dominate Isabel if he were to try it now that he is back into training and looking like a ball of fucking explosive beauty

[@feixiang1989]

The Crossfit delusion is disgusting.

[@JumpDiffusion]

+Lim Sheng Feixiang less disgusting than a lazy hater

[@tonyb5096]

crossfit is for uneducated losers who want a 1 way ticket to snap city lol,... ya tell a 16 year old to Oly lift 10000 snatches in 5 mins time hahah such a joke, just asking for an injury

[@TheG010]

Lol this is insane. Even if he is cutting the movement short, it's with 154 pounds and it was his first time.

[@dgwear69]

If he is not trained to do crossfit why would he pick it up naturally. His sport requires a completely different energy system. i have separate respect for oly lifters and crossfitters

[@diegocaro3439]

Que dice al final del video como conclusión? Cuando termina las 30 repeticiones

[@sibirenkov]

Илюха лучший!

[@sw8053]

I think this is sick!!! He is not trying to compare himself to rich froning. He is just doing a workout. People need to stop hating. Do I think rich froning would dominate him using 70 kg crossfit regulated isabel yes... Do I think rich froning can snatch 192 kg... hell no. Why can't we just coexist. People point out the dumbest details. stop comparing him to crossfitters. he is an olympic lifter.

[@projekt84]

Ilya could come really close or possibly beat Froning's Isabel time if he put actually training into it. Rich Froning could dedicate himself to olympic weightlifting from now until his body stopped working and wouldn't come close to 192kg ever... that's the difference. But hey we're just all at our keyboards talking a bunch of nonsense

[@sw8053]

I disagree. You are comparing apples and oranges and you clearly have a bias opinion about ilya. How can you say that ilya could beat rich if he tried but if rich was lifting since he was 13 and actually had a weightlifting coach and took steroids. he couldnt do what ilya does? Just b/c someone can snatch 96 kg doesnt mean that they have the endurance to snatch 62 kg 30 times. CLEARLY as the video shows. I like both athletes and I do not try and compare them b/c they are in different sports. I just simply wish that people would stop discrediting ilya for attempting this workout, and stop discrediting rich b/c he cant snatch as much as ilya. its fuckin stupid.

[@projekt84]

rich froning doesn't take steroids? could've fooled me :p

[@sw8053]

Once again...you are just making accusations with zero proof? Now your just trying to justify your logic which is impossible. You can say that I have no proof, but any weightlifter knows that it is no secret that lifters overseas use roids. You can look at how many are banned from the sport. there is like 13 from Kazahkstan alone. Show me some signs that rich takes steroids.

[@projekt84]

just look at him? look at the extreme lack of regulating PED usage within crossfit. look at how demanding the crossfit games are, and try to see if anyone not on a PED could actually win it. could just be dat dere progenex though

[@andrewkiss5233]

i'd love to see a translation of what he said afterwards, must be a bit frustrating.

[@Ensostyle]

"first time and i`m glad that i did it, cool"

[@yurireznik5509]

До конца надо ставить на пол и выпрямляться вверху , Клоков делал с 105 кг чистые за 4 минуты примерно .

[@k1nd_cat]

Не пизди. 100кг. на 5:47 он уложился.

[@puassonspot]

+1

[@23chicco]

ilya dont perform crossfit, your body has been made for stenght , your fibers are explosive not used to have to do with endurance.

[@sidcranstonp.e.9090]

The whole point is that this is a set of movements for time. If this is a show of strength then it is absolutley an excellent example. If it is an attempt to complete the CrossFit workout Isabel to compare scores against other athletes, then it is not a good comparison.

[@sw8053]

please show me where he is implying that he is in comparison with anyone? How about he is just doing 30 snatches the way he wants to do them and feel the burn of it. Fuck crossfit standards. I love crossfit but Im not going to criticize if someone isn't doing Rx movements. especially when they are not trying to.

[@seanmcginnis9853]

scott McBroseph The name of the video is an explicit comparison.

[@sw8053]

Sean McGinnis really, if it was a comparison then it would not be 70 kg seeing that isabel is 135 lbs. Also we are talking about a European that really has no idea about crossfit that is doing 30 snatches the way AN OLYMPIC LIFTER would do 30 snatches. The title doesn't say ilya ilyin does 30 snatches and outdoes most crossfiters times. He's just doing 30 snatches who cares. My point is why do all of you trolls have to find some type of negativity in a post. every fucking time someone post something of them doing something it gets criticized. How about he is supporting crossfit. Crossfit gets so much blowback and then you get a 2x olympian doing a crossfit style workout and cross fitters still fucking criticize. The title does not call out anyone. it just says he is doing isabel. Do you really think that he is not strong enough to do isabel the way crossfit judges it?? You can can say that crossift is bullshit because according to olympic standards your not allowed to press out. so fuck it.. crossfit is wrong. WHO GIVES A SHIT.

[@Ensostyle]

Another one weightlifter doing Isabel - Crossfit Isabel done by Super heavyweight BW 140kg

10.01.14

[@MrPhaleg1977]

Nobody does Isabel on full Snatch, so, all reps counts

[@izdavoi67]

Klokov Dmitry does !

[@Frank-cj3nh]

Is it me or does he look tiny compared to his most recent videos on his channel?

[@GingerMeProductions]

during this video, which was filmed sometime around march, he was around 85ish kg. Currently he is all the way up to something like 112kg.

[@bmseven28]

Russell Laros lol,85kg in march?he competed at 94 in 2012...he has been 105 for a while

[@nastyk57]

bm seven he took 9 months off of training during which he lost a ton of weight

[@haczabim]

Only 70 kgs", lol. You do it

[@Doe7251]

70 kg now hes in 104 kg category and breaking wr on c&j did he pack on muscel must be striods .

[@bmseven28]

he clean and jerked 242kg,of course he's on fucking steroids..

[@orritomasson]

70 kg is the weight he's lifting (20 kg bar + 2 x red 25 kg plates), not his body weight.

[@Beaver489]

Obviously don't lift if you thought 70kg was his body weight... Look at the size of him, his quads probably weigh 70kg. Also, nearly (probably all) elite weight lifters are on PED's, doesn't mean he's not a great lifter, it just boosts his genetic potential.

[@Cerdelimo]

+Beaver489 But if someone say that an athlete is in the gear, it doesn't necessary mean that he wanted to take away the effort and dedication of that athlete! Just pointing out something!

[@henryjohnson6291]

+Cerdelimo the guy sounded too stupid to realise the level of athlete illyin is...

[@armatihsatov6884]

Храпат

[@rfjohns1715]

This really shows the lack of endurance as well as probably off any performance enhancers. He really struggled.

[@sambrayer]

Sean is an awful far way from home.

[@seanmcginnis9853]

Far from "Isabel." I know competitive lifters never fully stand with a snatch, but tough. Half a range of motion in a prescribed full range of motion workout is incomplete.

[@LoyalDogProductions]

...said the crossfitter who's been doing snatches for six months and thinks he's an expert to the world class gold medal winning olympic athlete

[@flahexer]

You are very smart, Sean. Congratulations.

[@seanmcginnis9853]

LoyalDogProductions Did I knock his skill, strength, or athletic prowess? I will knock your reading comprehension. Simply stated, that is not Isabel.

[@DevinLeland]

llya llyin is a two time Olympic gold medalist and three time world champion. He snatched 185kg at the Beijing games, that is 407# ! I think everyone, starting with you, needs to be thankful these guys are having a little fun with Crossfit and showing a little support for it rather than running us into the ground (which they could rightfully and easily do). Guy snatched 154# thirty times and made it look easy, with darn good form throughout. Bravo! He isn't training to be a crossfit games athlete, so who cares. He is a top level Olympic athlete!

[@flahexer]

Valuable comment Sean, thanks.

[@jonmolina948]

Would've been easier had he let the bar rest on the floor.

[@michaelscott5105]

must be off the gear

[@jonmolina948]

+Michael Scott He had taken more than a year off after winning the Olympic gold in London.

[@michaelscott5105]

i really like Ilya love to meet him one day

[@Braddaddyx]

Really good performance BUT you can NOT call it Isabel at 70k, because of no full range of motion and using Gripsupport (which really makes a difference), i could imagine many elite crossfites beeing faster at this, doing full range of motion an not using gripsup. Nevertheless really good, especially for his first time.

[@sw8053]

who gives a shit bro. call it what you want. he got his heart rate up. he stepped out of his comfort level. Why do you feel the need to be negative. \ The end of your statement is all you needed to say. "really good especially for his first time"

[@Braddaddyx]

cant handle other opinions e? everybody has to think at ur level :-)
