Emily Campbell lifting 146kg

Best lifts from this week

These are the lifts you need to see from the last week:

Lee Sang-yeon (KOR -73) set a new national record in the clean and jerk at 196kg. This is more than teammate Bak Joo-hyo hit to win their Olympic qualifying battle...

Emily Campbell (GBR +87) built up in doubles to 150kg in the clean. I think it’s pretty safe to say that she wants that medal in Paris! She also double 114kg in the snatch.  

Marin ‘stanky leg’ Robu (MLD -89) back squatted 280kg, the most we’ve ever seen from him! Peep the knee sleeves 👀Coming very soon!

Mattie Rogers (USA -81) alludes to a YouTube series covering her return to weightlifting after injury took her out of her journey to Paris. Ok, not a lift, but exciting!

Don Opeloge (SAM -102) just hit a 235kg clean from the high hang… That’s 3kg over the world record clean and jerk! His competition best in the lift is 221kg.
