Who said that weightlifters are obese? Look at these bodies chiseled with a barbell! Lightweight, middleweight, heavy…
Only super heavies from +109 class do not boast their physics. They are working out with even greater weights! But you never see them without t-shirts!
Well in the past, maybe. Nowadays big guys seem to be shy of their bodies. What happened?
Do you know the actual body weight of the strongest weightlifter?
When we saw Lasha in 2015 his body weight was indicated next to his results. In 2016 we could see it too. But in 2017 the bodyweight indication was removed. We don’t know how much more than 109 he weighs. 160? 183?
What’s happened?
Bodyweight used to play a role. The lighter sportsman would win in case of lifting the same. Now higher in rating is the one, whose successful attempt’s first. Even if the bodyweight’s bigger.
If weight does not play a role within a weight class – no need to cut it, but is there a sense of gaining fat? Does mass really move mass? Want to know – subscribe to OlympicGo!
