These are the most notable training lifts we've seen this week:
Lasha Talakhadze (GEO +109) power cleans 210kg! The most we’ve ever seen from him is 215kg, but surely he can lift way more? When he returns to compete at the Olympic Games it will have been 11 months since his last international meet.
Jourdan Delacruz (USA -49) power snatched 80kg from the deficit! With a personal best, as an -49kg, of 89kg, this variation turned a few heads in the office. Having first competed internationally in 2015 Jourdan heads to Paris as somewhat a veteran.
Anyelin Venegas (VEN-59) jerked 135kg from behind the neck. Her best clean and jerk in comp is 126kg. Venegas is currently ranked at no.6 in the Olympic rankings and so will be lifting on the biggest stage in 11 weeks!
