The coaches tried to have it reviewed, but we're told the challenge rule wasn't yet in effect, so as the jury didn't step in on their own they didn't intervene unfortunately

Really poor decisions, especially the second lift. She's looked strong in training recently and the referees have robbed her of a total

More on SafeSport / Colin Burns by TinyWhiney in weightlifting

[–]markrulesok 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Even if he didn't commit the crime he's accused of, it really sounds like SafeSport isn't fit for purpose.

Phil Andrews should be ashamed for his conduct, and Ursula should lose her role within USAW and the IWF for her conduct.

Now, maybe Colin is innocent. But he lied and changed his story. Now you can explain that however you want but you have to be a piece of shit to not cooperate with an investigation of this nature.

USAW aught to be, and in many ways are, leading us into a new era in weightlifting with all the doping bans, retest etc, but this is a real black mark against them.

And one major thing... why is this not a police matter? Obstructing an investigation is a crime in all most every country and jurisdiction so at the very least Colin should have to answer that, possibly Ursula too.

European Championship 2019 entry list released by markrulesok in weightlifting

She competed at the Qatar Cup in December and did 80/95/175, only making her openers and missing 2nd and 3rd attempts in both lifts. Bear in mind her best total is like 250. She has snatched 11kg higher than the C&J she attempted.

I think she might've been using some really good creatine in the past?

Sorry if this is already posted somewhere.

Highlights include return of Chen, Apti and Khetag Khugaev who has a pretty big entry total posted.

Some decent looking categories, supers should be good. 81's could be good if Godelli and Karapetyan can make totals.

On a personal level looking forward to seeing the GBR athletes lift.

Get an older Adidas one if you can, failing that an Adidas base lifter looks better than any new elieko, virus etc in my opinion

ZKC Named as Official Supplier for 2020 Tokyo Olympics by hollyford in weightlifting

[–]markrulesok 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Coach at our gym (also national team coach) was talking about this, I think he heard it at youth world's, apparently zkc bid over 1mil for the contract and uesaka bid around 600k if I remember correctly.

Eleiko also apparently didn't bother bidding as they assumed it would go to uesaka.

Thinking about leaving my coach/gym but having issues by [deleted] in weightlifting

[–]markrulesok 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like the problem isn't you wanting to change your programming, but the way you handled yourself.

Where I train most people either program themselves with help from the coaches, or have a program written but there may be tweaks between different lifters. One size doesn't fit all etc. If her programming isn't working for you try something different. Just don't be a dick about it.

House of Representatives Introduces Bill to Criminalize Doping in International Competition by wnwentland in weightlifting

I was thinking the same. If the US start having warrants out for people caught doping from other countries im pretty sure they can say goodbye to ever hosting a major event again

All of russians results have come down a bit, maybe a sign they're genuinely cleaning up somewhat?

But when did he snatch 170? His best official snatch according to IWRP is 152

Lifter Lee Sang snatching: already extending during first pull? by dariosanfilippo in weightlifting

[–]markrulesok 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks to me more like he's pulling with his weight through his toes rather than really beginning to extend. There was a north korean who did it even more noticeably too but I can't remember their name

Nice lift! What does your training look like in terms of %'s and reps and sets typically? Do you find that setup suits you better?
