(12.09) Li Ping (58kg, China) snatching 100kg for first place at Asian championships.

Chen Shih-Chieh (105kg+, Taipei) clean and jerking 245kg/540lb at the 2015 Asian Championships where he won with 193/245/438 — 14kg above his bronze medal total from last year at the 2014 Asian Games. That 424kg total was also a big int’l competition PR so his numbers are increasing quickly. If he can up his snatch a bit he might even be an overall medal threat on the world stage in the near future!

Video of the Chinese Female Team in Training yesterday. This includes footage of Huang Yuezhen (48), Yu Yuanyuan (53), Li Ping (58), Xie Hongli (69), Wang Zhouyu (75), Meng Suping (75+). (05.09) Lin Qingfeng(69kg, China) gets his back stretched out. Looks like good improv if you don’t have a decompression table. Choe Jon Wi (77kg, North Korea) squatting 220kg for 3 reps today. Meng Suping(+75kg, China) Squats 200kg for a double.

Meng Suping (75kg+, China) front squatting 200kg/441lb for a double at the 2015 Asian Championships training hall. She did this after three doubles at 195kg/430lb and one single at 200kg. She used to hold the world record in the clean and jerk with 188kg before Tatiana Kashirina (Russia) made a 190kg C&J at the 2013 Worlds.   A video posted by hookgrip (@hookgrip) on Sep 5, 2015 at 7:31am PDT

Su Dajin(77kg, China) Squatting 280kg. (after he squatted 260kg for a double btw)

Su Dajin (-77kg, China) in the 2015 Asian Championships training hall back squatting 280kg/617lb followed by a graceful dismount of a 170kg jerk dip (he loaded it back up and did a much heavier weight afterwards). Back at the 2011 WWC, where he placed 3rd, he made a 211kg/465lb clean which is 1kg over the world record in the clean and jerk in his category.

Chinese Weightlifting Team

(04.09) Today we went to the competition venue & training hall and already wanted to leave because it was empty. Good thing we didn’t, because 20 minutes later the place was packed (team China, North Korea, TPE, and many more).

Here is Li Ping (correction: 58kg, China) squatting triple 2.75x bodyweight for two reps.

160kg. Looking forward to the days to come.

    Looking forward to this. Is there a startlist out yet?

    Between this and the IWF Grand Prix, September is shaping up to be a good month!

      I think this is the official federation’s website, I can’t find a start list on it yet but I’ll reply and update the page when I find one.

        Bahador Moulaei is in. Yes!

        I just hope that he is completely recovered this time.

        The schedule needs some adjustments now.

          Done, thanks.

    I’m also very curious to follow this competition. China will probably bring their “B” team, leaving out the athletes that performed in the test event, but I wonder if DPRK will do the same.

  3. wlift84 says

    September 4, 2015 at 19:30

    According to the training hall video the CHN male team will be:

    62 Ding Jianjun
    69 Lin Qingfeng
    69 Huang Wenwen
    77 Su Dajin
    77 Wang Jie
    85 Cao Gang
    85 Sun Wei (not 100% if it’s him)
    105 Zhang Xiliang

      CHN women I could tell:

      48 Huang Yuezhen
      53 Yu Yuanyuan
      53/58 Li Ping (she was 57kg at Nationals)
      69 Lan Huixian
      +75 Meng Suping

      • Erpel says

        The 69 is Xie Hongli and the 75 is Wang Zhouyu

          Thanks! Nice job identifying them all.

          I get the joke. Let’s just wait for the startlist.

              September 5, 2015 at 19:04

              11 correct, 2 mistakes, 2 not shown in video (Xie, Zhou). I’ll concede to underperforming.

      • Gregor says

        September 5, 2015 at 13:57

        and you were right… I asked Li Ping and she is 58kg here

  4. Victor says

    September 5, 2015 at 19:17

    Wow, China is really not trying here. They won’t even send Cheng Meng or Li Fabin out for a sure win in the 56 despite neither (most certainly Cheng) having a chance in hell of making it to the World’s! Not holding out, but don’t wanna go either! Sent Su Dajin for the 77? So basically expect him to bomb and take it as a delightful surprise if he doesn’t. What about Zhao YongChao for the 85? Seems obvious, no? Psshhht, whateva LOL This isn’t even China’s B team; this is the C team.

    • Victor says

      September 5, 2015 at 19:24

      However, 69 should be good (Kim Myong Hyok vs. Lin Qinfeng), and seeing that double 200 FS, it looks like Meng Suping is here on a mission to take the clean and jerk record from Kashirina, so those 2 events should be quite interesting!

    • Afferbeck says

      September 6, 2015 at 08:20

      “Sent Su Dajin for the 77? So basically expect him to bomb and take it as a delightful surprise if he doesn’t.”

      Haha, the poor guy. Even in the clip above, he completely fails and crashes stuff everywhere. Guy can’t catch a break.

        you called it!

        • Afferbeck says

          September 9, 2015 at 20:53

          Unfortunately 🙁 I’m always rooting for him, but he’s constantly lets us down. He could star in a sitcom where everything goes wrong for him all the time.

    • wlift84 says

      September 6, 2015 at 12:14

      As the resident unpaid translator, could you take a look at the longer Lu vs. Su video in the test event thread?

      • Victor says

        September 6, 2015 at 18:24

        There’s not much to translate. Lots of small talk in that one. The most important was at the beginning where Lu was getting back into peak form and it says he’d done a 305 back squat before. After that, it just says that they have a healthy rivalry where they push each other just by their existence, though they don’t talk to each other much. They’re both not overly concerned with each other, more focused on their own progress. Lu says that knowing both Su and Lu Haojie are ready to eat his lunch if he slips up keeps him on his toes. Su says he wants to do 381. Basically just banter.

    • wlift84 says

      September 9, 2015 at 17:15

      Why on earth would they pick Su Dajin? Yes, he’s filthy strong still but his percentages are terrible.

      He bombed 2010 Asian Games, 2010 World Championships, 2012 Nationals, 2014 Nationals and now this.

      He didn’t even lift in the Nationals this year. Today’s winner was 350 and China had five lifters who did more to choose from. Why not send Zhong Guoshun or Caoshi Jiaqi, they’re clearly not in the A selection for the WC.

    • GHM says

      September 11, 2015 at 16:19

      Iran so called national team sucked here. Iran national news agency claimed Iran finished 3rd in the ranking. It could be by points. I predict Iranian team will do even worse in Houston except for Salimi in +105.

      Best of luck to PRK lifters. I just hope none of them get cut cheating
      again because this means a more deserving lifter missing an opportunity
      to stand on the podium.

    Asian Champs, Worlds in 2 months. Gregor, the man, doing a great job as always (thanks to helpers, too).

    Can I say this? Life is great with weightlifting. I love you all so much! 😀

  6. dustin oranchuk says

    September 6, 2015 at 23:48

    kinda thought Su Dajin was dead

  7. grobpote says

    September 7, 2015 at 14:39

    Woww! What an excellent live stream! I really appreciate it!

  8. David Oliveira says

    September 9, 2015 at 03:29

    Did anyone see the Vietnam guy in the men’s 62kg? He was just trolling around, doing extremely low weights easily, and after a sucessful 75kg snatch in his 2nd attempt he initially asked 130kg for his 3rd. One of the most bizarre performances i’ve ever seen.

    • SirJohn says

      September 10, 2015 at 15:17

      Yeah, what was that? He also did the same in the C&J. 90-95-100, made them look like light training and then he was done. Was he upset about something and was this some sort of protest??

      • David Oliveira says

        September 10, 2015 at 20:06

        My guess is that it has to do with that stupid rule that requires any lifter in order to be eligible for the 2016 Olympics to have participated in at least 2 international competitions in the last two years.

  9. Victor says

    September 9, 2015 at 18:56

    Please tell me Su Dajin is officially retired now. I think his coaches gave him this opportunity to come out just to prove to him that he’s ready to retire. It would be terribly uncool if he insisted, after this, that he continue his career. They could have sent out Zhong Guoshun for the win, but they’d rather free up Su Dajin’s training space for a younger guy.
