While we wait for the first weightlifting sessions of the 2016 Olympic Games to start, here is something to ease the pain.
Team North Korea’s training session on the 17.11.2015. It was Om Yun Chol’s last heavy (for classical lifts) training session in which he went 120+160.
Also in the video: Lots of Pulls and Squats.
Btw, how about the complete failure of the Rio Weightlifting organizers to put together a media team for training hall footage? You had 4 years to prepare … How is that even possible?
