Olympic Weightlifter Lu Xiaojun is going to rape everyone in London 2012 | Video

[KidDynamite]

resorting to ad hominems because you know i'm right? lmfao. my height has nothing to do with this argument (that you started) you dumb *******.

and my point is that force IS generated by the mass of the athlete, because glucose is mass. get the **** out of here, please. i don't want the next generation to end up as retarded as you.

rofl buddy just give it up. We both know what you meant by mass when you first bought it up. And that isn't even correct anyway. The force is generated by a chemical potential, which creates muscular tension, which transmits force to the barbell. This force creates an impulse which generates the barbell's momentum. You're welcome for the physics lesson. Now stop being such an idiot.

And now magog, I'm officially bored. You can discuss your weight classes in peace.

Do either of you actually do the lifts or just argue about them

and do you know what generates a chemical potential? (and by chemical potential, i hope you mean chemical and charge potential, which is called an electrochemical gradient you ignorant *******). you're welcome for the biology lesson in my previous post.

which transmits force to the barbell.

okay? i never disagreed with this.

This force creates an impulse which generates the barbell's momentum. You're welcome for the physics lesson. Now stop being such an idiot.

thanks for stating what i've been trying to state this whole time. you have just outlined the cause and effect relationship (direct) of how mass translates into momentum, therefore strength. have a good day.

oh and i hope you meant the person's momentum.

i clean and jerk but that's about it. better than this ******* that probably hasn't ever touched a weight in his ****ing life

[MushuMiles]

how would weight classes not matter? lulz

but anyways. I think its way more impressive for a lil guy to be lifting 3 times his body weight than a big dude lifting that same weight. if they judged it by bodyweight in relation to the weight lifted that would be alright i guess

[stevezor]

ITT:

KidDynamite is a 300lb fatfuk with mediocre lifts for his size and has to resort to "hurrdurr bigger is better, more weight is all that matters".

That's how they do it if people tie in the same weight clasS

it seems the masters of the olympics are as smart as I.

no ****ing homo but you look exactly like the cop i rode along with

Is nobody actually reading what KidDynamite is saying?

I still have yet to hear a reasonable argument as to why their should be no weight classes. If there is a correlation between how much a person weighs and how much weight they can put up, then it makes more than enough sense to have weight divisions so that more individuals can prove their strength, why make it so that only the biggest get to compete when little guys can be just as strong in their respective weight class?
someone is hating on the little guys =[

Why aren't there basketball divisions that shorter guys can play in with a hoop lower "so that more individuals can prove their" basketball skill?

All he is saying is: sports are unfair due to genetics, if weightlifting accounts for worse genetics (smaller guys), then why don't other sports?
If it's not genetics that make them smaller, then the argument is they are not reaching for the 'top' of their sport by staying at a smaller (and hence most-likely not being able to fulfil their maximum potential in lifting the most weight) size. Similiar to a sprinter that doesn't want to put on muscle to run faster, and asking for weight categories.

The reasoning seems sound to me

[iron_monster]

There's a lot of lifters that stay at a lower weight class because they perform better and feel better at a lower weight

[BinauralBeats]

Olympic record holders and medallists, pioneers of their support


still not worthy of respect of non avi non lifting miscers

[DiscipIine]

no avatar, no stats, and a real hatred against weight classes? sounds like an angry fat dude who brings up how much he can lift and rages when aesthetic people refute it with pound for pound. Don't get why ya can't just appreciate how much of a beast that chinese dude is without starting a dumb argument.

[Sneetches]

Funny how I watched these vids and got hyped only to have some ******* come and chit all over the thread, what a shame. You guys should have all ignored him though, retarded as he may be.

[Ricky116]

Seems some folks have a problem with reasonable discussion. Brb I wonder at the ingredients of my burger, I must hate burgers

Honestly his argument is sound he's just being dumb by calling people idiots as he argues it, just starts flame wars. I feel like they have different weight classes to provide more events I guess. it's a lot more entertaining to watch people of various shapes and sizes all compete for a gold medal than just one guy from each country. i'm a bit stumped really its a good question

On misc people would write
5 ft 7 170 lbs
and ask if he even lifts

This is a good post.

I like weight classes, I think the Olympic competitors across them all are incredibly impressive and you can be damn sure I'll be watching the events... But the point he raised is interesting regardless.

is it on nbc?

i never olympic lifting and judo showcased (that and boxing)

[ptotheb]

Weightlifting isn't a skill based sport, so weight classes exist only to allow smaller, weaker men to compete. Stupid as hell. It makes about as much sense as height classes in high jump.

I'm not hating on the guy, I'm hating on the stupidity of having weight classes. This isn't boxing.

not sure if retarded.

im guessing youve never tried to snatch, or at least snatch heavy. There is tons of skill and technique required to do it correctly

[peteryji]

Lu haojie and tigran martirosyan will be the biggest threats to xiaojun in London. according to coach wang baofu, xiaojun is hitting 385 kg in training this month. lu's world record is 378 kg in Goyang, so 385 is sorta a big deal. coach says his potential "far exceeds" 385 kg...he's hit as high as 180kg in the snatch in training, which would take his total to 390-392 with a 210-212 CJ, which is in-line with his training bests. this of course being done at a bodyweight of around 80-81kg before cutting. IMO we'll see the 77kg weight class records broken if Lu has a good day, 380 is definitely do-able. will be interesting to see what condition martirosyan is in as he was coming off of an injury at the 2011 WWC.

varbanov still stands out as the all-time greatest in this weight class (382.5 at 75kg).

also keep an eye out for hysen pulaku, he could be a contender for the bronze medal IMO, should place no lower than 5th place (xiaojun, haojie, martirosyan, and sa could very well go 1-2-3-4). been following hysens progress on youtube...guy hit 211 CJ and 166 snatch (BW ~82kg) before jetting out to london. compare that to his 2011 WWC paris results, his progress is remarkable.

Seeing Lu waving flags around with the Chinese athletes in the opening ceremony made my day, lol.

Ignorant statement. Yum Chol Om of North Korea (in the 56kg/123lbs weight class) Clean & Jerked 3 times his body weight 168kg/370lbs. Dude is just shy of 5 feet tall and obviously is significantly smaller in structure than even the smallest heavyweight. That doesn't take away from how impressive it is for a guy that weighs less than a high school cheerleader to throw up more weight than any of the "bros" with their hats on backwards in the gym doing bicep curls in front of the mirror.
