Ilya Ilyin is arguably the most famous weightlifter of all-time. As much as his two Olympic gold medals and his unbeaten track record built his legend, the loss of his medals through retroactive drug testing built his infamy. Behind the headlines is an incredible story of a young Kazakh athlete who was plucked from his family at a young age, a boy through whom the entire country of Kazakhstan channeled its power. When the IWF began retesting athletes Ilya lost everything, and the country that had given him everything suddenly abandoned him. This is part one of The Ilya Ilyin story.I was fortunate enough to live with Ilya during December. After a few days of discussion he and I decided to finally hit record.From the experts at @rpstrength, try the new RP Diet App for a discounted monthly subscription.

The inclusion of transgender athletes in sport is a difficult topic to understand and prescribe rules for, not least in a sport like weightlifting where the difference in ability between men and women is the greatest of all Olympic sports at around 40%, compared with the 10-12% average across all other sports.CEO of Barbell Medicine, Jordan Feigenbaum, is the person we believe to be the most qualified to talk on this matter. We spoke about the current studies that we have access to, or perhaps more accurately, the dearth of information on this topic. Jordan’s article ‘Shades of Gray: Sex, Gender, and Fairness in Sport’ has been read well over one hundred thousand times, and cites 97 studies as references.If ever there was a way to understand what can currently be known, and to attempt to create one's own thoughts on this contentious subject, this podcast is the way.Follow Jordanhttps://www.instagram.com/jordan_barbellmedicine/https://twitter.com/jordan_thecoachhttps://www.barbellmedicine.com/Here is the arti

Potentially the most eventful week of weightlifting in years outside of major competition. Not only has the coronavirus forced a location change for the Asian Championships, but it has forced the cancelation of an Olympic qualifier. Colombia received three bans which should result in all weightlifters being removed from the Olympics, and so much more.Shop W|H USA - https://www.weightliftinghouse.com/shopusa/Shop W|H EU - https://www.weightliftinghouse.com/shopeurope/Want to stock WH thumbtape?

Jon North never fails to bring energy to any conversation, and this was no exception.

I wanted to go through the data on Sohrab Moradi and Kianoush Rostami's current Olympic bid, to see whether it was possible to draw some likely conclusions and predictions.

When it comes to writing or following a weightlifting program, us weightlifters often find ourselves adding weight or volume every single week. But at what point do we cash in our chips and deload, 'saving' our progress before we continue on, and when do we decide to push on for just one further week in the hopes of heavier numbers?
