Meanwhile in Russia …
100kg Snatch above bodyweight you ask?
Adam Maligov (85kg) gets a 190kg Snatch off Blocks!
It was 2 months ago when did 180kg off Blocks.
Note, that for his 185kg Snatch last week, he said he was at 90kg bodyweight.
Read his Interview here.

Update: Looks like he also did 195kg!
Jon says
Gregor, any idea how to build these blocks? Links?
Gregor says
I don’t have specific plans for those, maybe someone reading this has build a similar model.
Aldr says
Insane! Seeing him fight Okulov and Apti will be great! And let’s not forget Markov!
Jon says
Apti has been expected to move up to 94 for some time now.
Gregor says
That was the plan. However he got injured and couldn’t train for some time.
In his last videos he didn’t look 94kg to me. We will know in August at the Russian nationals.
Leon says
Is that aloud? At 85 to snatch 190. Sure from the blocks, but man. When are the russian nationals? Have to see them.
Gregor says
at 90kg + blocks + straps
Nationals are 18-25 August in Grozny

Beautiful looking snatch indeed. But as Tuvok (Star Trek) :))) would say: However, it doesn’t mean he’s gonna do it in competition. I remember Laszlo Barsi – 1987 world champ in 82,5 kg – snatching 200 kg from blocks. He did 180 kg in competition.15-20 kg more from blocks is natural for most lifters.
