Meanwhile in Russia …
Last time we saw this young gentleman it was with a 115kg Snatch (140kg C&J) at 63kg.
Here is an update from then 15 year old Vyacheslav Yarkin (from November 2013, he is 16 now).
130kg Snatch (if those blue plates are 2.5kg, which I hear is not uncommon in some Russian gyms).
YouTube Mirror of the 130kg:
Anyway, he also has a monstrous – neck high – Standing Box Jump
More Young Guns:
155kg Clean & (Power) Jerk?
149kg (?) Clean + Front Squat + Power Jerk
Update 21.01.2015: 193kg Power Jerk at 72kg Bodyweight.
wow this kid is amazing
I instantly thought of Valentin Hristov when I was watching the videos. It looked like the same sort of aggression to get under the bar.
Great videos.
On that note I’d love to see training video of Hristov. This kid is amazing.
I could ask him on facebook maybe. Not sure how good his bulgarian is, though.
Yeah, he seems to write mainly in Bulgarian. For some reason I thought Turkish is his best language. but he seems to be fine with both.
Jeez. His jerk is lightning
