Highlight from the 2014 Worlds Training Hall …
Kim Unju (75kg, North Korea) Squatting 175kg x5 four days out from competition.
This was the heaviest squat I saw performed by a female athlete that week (wasn’t there when the +75kg ladies were squatting).
Gotta love the whole team counting reps. They did this for most of the heavy sets.

She’s such a great lifter! Is she banned or not? I saw she was stripped of her worlds gold . The olympics wouldn’t be whole without her.
Gregor says
Yes, she is banned until 10.12.2016. So no Olympics for her.
grobpote says
What a pity!
Victor says
The way her bar is loaded looks like she’s doing advertising for an Eleiko set LOL

Interesting back squat form, elbows forward and under is pretty unusual.
