Kim Unju 175kg x5 Squat 2014 Worlds Training Hall

May 14, 2015 By Gregor Winter

Highlight from the 2014 Worlds Training Hall …

Kim Unju (75kg, North Korea) Squatting 175kg x5 four days out from competition.

This was the heaviest squat I saw performed by a female athlete that week (wasn’t there when the +75kg ladies were squatting).

Gotta love the whole team counting reps. They did this for most of the heavy sets.

    She’s such a great lifter! Is she banned or not? I saw she was stripped of her worlds gold . The olympics wouldn’t be whole without her.

      Yes, she is banned until 10.12.2016. So no Olympics for her.

    The way her bar is loaded looks like she’s doing advertising for an Eleiko set LOL

    Interesting back squat form, elbows forward and under is pretty unusual.
