Here are my clips from the 77kg Warm Up Area at the 2015 World Championships.
Featuring Lu Xiaojun, Kim Kwang Song, Mohamed Ehab, Andranik Karapetyan, Viktor Getts, Su Ying, Nijat Rahimov, Krzysztof Szramiak, Rasoul Taghian.
Interesting thing that I didn’t manage to capture was Lu missing a 190kg clean (Dr.Westbrook showed me the video). Clearly not a strength issue, but definitely not expected. Update: Video below

Update: Here is Lu Xiaojun missing his 190kg Clean
Su Ying did not look great… amazing how he still managed to snatch 165 on the stage!

LOL That’s how good Lu Xiaojun is; everyone’s looking for a video of him failing a clean as a rarity when people usually look for videos of a lifter making a huge clean.
looks like he dropped it intentionally
Yeah, looked like it to me……
+1 for it looking intentional. Probably just getting a feel for the balance and timing, not bothering to stand with it for the sake of saving his legs for the competition attempts.
