Meanwhile in Germany …
1.5 months after the 2013 Worlds Ivan Markov is still in competition shape.
At the Bundesliga meet between SV Germania Obrigheim and KSV Durlach he went 167+203.
You could probably wake him up at 2 in the morning any day during the year and he would still total around 370kg.
Same after the 2013 Europeans. Two weeks after the comp (where he got a 375 total) he lifted at the Bundesliga final where he did 370kg – So two 370 performances in two weeks in two countries. (Thanks Markus)
- Bodyweight: 84.9kg
- Snatch: 160kg, x165kg, 167kg
- Clean and Jerk: 190kg, 197kg, 203kg
And yes, Bundesliga athletes get tested.

I know cause I competed 3 years in Munich and it was awesome! The beer was flooding the whole place all the time :)))
Here is a list of the best performances in Bundesliga from this season (13/14).

There are about half of the competition-days over.
I remember that Stefan Botev missed his flight from Bulgaria and he drove instead of flying. After about 1500 km of driving he easily lifted 400 kg.
