December 5, 2012 By Gregor Winter

Here is an older clip from Vasily Polovnikov when he was still training in Russia.

180kg Snatch x2 (at 85+ ,94 ish bodyweight?)

In a comment on a video the guys he trains with in Boston said his bests are 201kg/230kg (at higher bodyweight).

Update: He lifted in the recent Russia Cup in the 94s.  Sn: 165 170 173 C&J: 200 х 200 х 200 х

      Would love to see videos as well. It would be phenomenal to see that type of weight being lifted this side of the Atlantic.

      agreed. one of the videos on yasha’s youtube channel show him missing 170 a handful of times recently.

      i believe the 201/230 is a comment reply from yasha in answer to what his bests are, nothing about when it happened.
