Meanwhile in Armenia …
Here are some training hall clips from the Armenian men’s and women’s team.
Highlight: 18 year old Simon Martirosyan with a 230kg Clean & Jerk near the end of the video.
Thanks to Albert for submitting these to ATG.

Aren’t the outer plates yellow?
Don’t think so, but not entirely sure now.
He’s doing 240 at 0:30 if they are red. IMO they’re not.
I don’t think that’s 240, looks more like one super wide red in the middle
I think it is 240. Look at the plates on the right side of the barbell when he drops it.
Last one is a yellow I think in both instances. So to me it looks like 220 at 0:30 and 210 at the end

10kg more than that other 230kg training cnj, I wonder if they’ve let his weight go into the +105kg full time.
210
