    My body is ready.

    I cannot watch live this time, hopefully full/ish replays will be stored somewhere.

    What China Team, they Participate in Asian Games-2018 Or No ???????? Their Ban was until October 2018 ( together with several other Teams)

      China will NOT compete.

    Interesting to note how close we are to worlds and where some of these better competitors lift in terms of weight classes.

    I’d love to see recordings but couldn’t find any on youtube. Anyone?

    • Gregor Winter says

      August 20, 2018 at 22:06

      working on it

    In the category of no one cares what you think:

    We will miss great athletic performances once 56kg division is gone by next year. We will have 61 kg division nonsense (61 kg = 134.482 lb). At least have 58 kg or 60 kg but 61 is totally BS.

    62 kg today had great results can be seen her.

      I’m not sure I understand what you mean by 61 kg nonsense. 61 is a whole number and it doesn’t make any sense to convert it to pounds if the WL world actually uses kg-s to count. I think for us who use International System of Units, pound,inch and yard are … weird.

    I tried following the VPN instructions and the Toggle streams aren’t working – I’m getting the message “Sorry, due to rights agreement, we are unable to offer this content in your territory.”

    I bought PIA for this and installed/configured as described – is it still working for you or anybody else? Any suggestions?

    • Gregor Winter says

      August 24, 2018 at 09:13

      Yes still working for me (currently watching 63kg).

      The recordings don’t seem to work though, only the live streams.

  7. FJ says

    August 24, 2018 at 12:39

    Thanks for the VPN tips, been able to watch the streams without a problem. These commentators are difficult to listen to though. They clearly know nothing about the sport.

  8. GHM says

    August 25, 2018 at 19:01

    Found this through Iranian TV feed. There is no translation or closed caption. I think he did 182 and then missed 189 and made in 3rd attempt.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MAq-TZU_mU

    This weight maybe considered as a new 96 kg initial record or standard. The linkage to old time weightlifting and weightlifters are going to be lost as soon as new categories are implemented.

      thank you alot for this link

    Some lifters go way too heavy very close to the competition. For example my favourite young lifter Meso Hassona with that 290 squat. I don’t think it did much good for him…
    Too much Insta and Youtube training videos take their toll. Very enjoyable to watch tho.

  11. grobpote says

    Salimi has gone out respectably. 6/6 and 460 plus total. He pulled himself together for the last time,even his jerks were good. At least it looked like he retired. I think Alihosseini was told to fail his last attempt so not to spoil the last moments of a great lifter on the podium. If it was like that it was an honourable deed from Ali. Respect!

    Kazakhs and Chinese were really missed here – I can’t wait for the world champs when everything will get back to normal.

    • GHM says

      August 27, 2018 at 15:02

      Salimi 461 Kg according to https://en.asiangames2018.id/sport/weightlifting/event/weightlifting-men-over105kg/
      I think Iran Federation will beg Salimi to take part in 2018 world championship. This way Iran can score point and enter max number of lifters in Tokyo. Salimi is 28 now and will turn 29 in December. It seems he is not happy to finish 2nd or 3rd in world and Olympics.

      Saeid Alihosseini is 30 years old already. I am not sure he will be at his best in Tokyo.

      The most impressive seems to be the 3rd placer Uzbek RUSTAM DJANGABAEV born in 1993. This means he will be about 28 in Tokyo.

      • grobpote says

        August 27, 2018 at 16:56

        Don’t forget that Alihosseini has been out of it for many years so he didn’t use himself up like the others. I think he might be able to do some damage in the future. But not to Lasha I am sure.

        • Jerker Karlsson says

          August 29, 2018 at 19:51

          It is such a shame we never got to see Alihosseini in his prime after setting the junior world records. Who knows what he was capable of then.

        • Roberto says

          August 30, 2018 at 15:15

          That’s right, Saeid Alihosseini shows excellent joint mobility, looks like he is 20 years old.

          • Soltan says

            August 31, 2018 at 03:58

            just if he was not banned for years definitly he was able to break all 3 record before getting 22 years old on 2010.
