Meanwhile in Kazakhstan …
Another “Big Friday” and you know what that means, right? Team KAZ is going all out.
Here is Almas Uteshov (94kg, Silver at 2013 Worlds with 175 + 222) from whom we don’t often get to see training footage, with a 230kg Clean & Jerk.
Almas is on the team that will lift at the 2014 Asian Games in September. Looks like he is the guy to beat there.
While we are in KAZ: Rustem Sybay also got some PRs. 175kg & 177kg Snatch and 230kg Rack Jerk.
Update: … and Ilya did a 242kg Clean & Jerk for his Big Friday. Follow his progress here.
Wow, very sharp technique for a max attempt
