And now, here is a video of a man lifting over two and a half times his own body weight up over his head:
I don’t think I’ll ever tire of watching Pyrros Dimas lift.
It’s very fast. And very technical. During the clean Pyrros manages to fully extend his hips and then drop right below the bar in one swift motion. Right below the bar. Not behind it. With that in mind, let’s focus on dropping under the bar properly today.
Arnold was the governor of California. By that standard Pyrros Dimas should be president after Greece extricates itself from it’s current financial mess.
