Too bad I did’t see that earlier. Would have been fun to watch live.
Here are the recordings of the 4th Janusza Przedpełskiego Memorial Meet in Poland.
Clarence Kennedy lifted there, together with some big names like Bartlomiej Bonk.
According to his Fb he was ” feeling sick all week and my strength levels have gone down”.
Still went 6/6. Results PDF here.
Snatch: 140kg at 38:00, 145kg 42:20, 150kg at 49:00
Update: Read his Interview on ATG.
Clean & Jerk: 180kg @ 22:25, 185kg @ 27:00, 190kg @ 31:00
Kornel Czekiel 220kg Clean and Jerk @106.5kg
Thanks to Phil for submitting it.
Why did he even compete there as the only foreigner?
What kind of question is that?
First people complain that he doesn’t compete, now this.
I think Ireland doesn’t offer too many opportunities to compete. So it’s good that he gets out in the world, makes new connections, gains confidence competing and lifts with people who are stronger than him.
I think he once said he was in contact with a super heavyweight Polish lifter who helped him a little, could just be he has connections there now. *Pinch of salt*. I hope he PB’s in the Junior Euros on the 6th.
They did a really good job with this meet set-up in general and the video taken. Wish this was how every lifting meet was: music between lifting groups to keep audience entertained, a good announcer, officials who make speeches, and great video coverage.
That’s right.
They make a really good job broadcasting the meets.
Where was the live stream of the University Championships?
Organizers should take note. Setting up ustream is not that hard.
Note pavel najdek and kolecki in the CJ vid at 44:15. Lots of strong dudes in that building.
Pawel Najdek is my coach lol. There were a lot of important people there.
I’m glad he’s getting more experience and exposure. Great lifts despite being sick!
Did he compete in 85kg or 94 class?
He competed at 87,7kg bodyweight.
It’s worth to note that he broke all seniors and juniors Ireland records in snatch, clean and jerk and total. Well done.
