Szymon Kolecki is THE most under developed talent that the sport has ever seen. As a teenager Kolecki was setting senior world records, but due to a back injury and a series of drug bans, what might have turned into one of the most staggering careers of all time was cut short.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wFhQmGfuZpY - Kolecki's growthhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R51SYMFvBUU - Kolecki vs Kakhiweightlifitinghouse.com - Book, Bar, Why Be Normal?patreon.com/weightliftinghouseVirus EU - 20% off code weightliftinghouse

Glenn and I spoke about how to ensure continual progress during a plateau in the lifts. This led to a discussion about the utility of sets of 10 in the squats, something I am more of a fan of than Glenn. But before any of this, Glenn switches to Hulu...

Incredible episode on the Armenian drug culture & Norik's technique. This episode covered 2 main topics - Norik's favourite variations of the lifts and the technical faults that they correct, as well as the drug culture in Armenia and around the world. We actually ended up going quite deep into how tests are passed, how how frequently athletes will dose up, and whether the current system will continue to allow drugs into the sport.Greatest Weightlifters of All Time book - weightliftinghouse.comBars and T-shirts - weightliftinghouse.comVirus EU 20% off code - weightliftinghousepatreon.com/weightliftinghouse

Chris, Glenn and I go in depth on the European model that was introduced in the early 90s to the OTC residents by the Romanian coach Dragomir. Chris holds the Olympic Training Center record for most repetitions done in a week at over 75%. His work capacity was and still is tremendous. Glenn and Chris broke down the idea that training is a science and compared it more to an art than anything else. The rigid structure of the Soviet programs is, in their eyes, outdated and lacking in individualism.Chris LeRoux first competed at the Jr Olympics in 1988 and went on to set 6 American Records, qualifying for 2 Olympic games, and competing at the World Championships.This is one of my favourite episodes to date and I am excited to hear some feedback from you guys about it.https://www.patreon.com/weightliftinghouseVirus EU -20% code - weightliftinghouseweightliftinghouse.com

Yury Zacharevich is the greatest heavyweight of all time. An incredible mix of strength, power and technique created the holder of 35 world records.

I compared the top performances of the Kazakhstan nationals with each individual lifter's greatest international performance to demonstrate some of the decline seen since the more stringent levels of drug testing. There were still some huge training lifts, including one that may well be the greatest display of squatting that we have seen thus far in 2018.Virus Europe code for 20% off - weightliftinghouseweightliftinghouse.com (Barbells & t-shirts)
