Tian Tao 230kg Clean & Missed Squat Jerk

October 5, 2016 By Gregor Winter

Finally we can put that rumor into the facts drawer …

Here is Tian Tao Cleaning 230kg and missing the Squat Jerk from his Rio prep!

Yes it’s potato quality, but you can clearly see two blue, two yellow, three greens plus a white plate on the bar.

230kg!

    wonder what is his true max on clean, cause this not look like to much of a struggle

    Wow. I wish there was a competition for just cleans. Tian Tao would probably take it easily.

      It’d be between him and Sincraian.

    Does this mean he’s done 226-229 before successfully? I know he’s done 225. It’s not normal to take 5kg jumps in PR at that level.

    Yuri Vardanian cleaned 230kg in competition and narrowly missed the jerk, straight after setting a new C&J WR of 224kg in the then 82.5kg class, when totalling a WR 405kg some 30 years ago.

    Remains the only lifter in history to have totalled more at the Olympics than the Gold Medalists in two weight classes(90kg &100kg) above him. Such was his dominance in the 1980 Olympics, he would have won bronze in the 110kg Class, where only the Gold Medalist C&J more. In the superheavy Class, the silver medalist only totalled 10kg more than Yuri, despite weighing over 52kg/8st more.
