Welcome to Gaia! ::

Oly lifting is way harder than s**t like cabertoss or shotput or discus.

There's so much ******** technique involved, and one slip and you'll wreck your s**t.

It's probably the most impressive strength sport around.

Have you SEEN Olympian lifters?



Oly lifters are, pound for pound, some of the most physically powerful athletes around, bar none. They might not hit the raw poundage of powerlifters, but they're so absurdly explosive that it doesn't even matter. Most powerlifters, or even strongmen, would be hard pressed to do the s**t oly lifters do.

If I had the technique, I'd gladly train as an oly lifter because they powerlift anyways, but they combine it with oly lifts to become monstrous athletes. That's why NFL players do oly training in tandem with their other weightifting regimens, it's a guaranteed increase in explosiveness.

Only when he accepts the Chinese oly lifting overlords.

Goddamn freaks of nature.

I'm not.

Brad Pitt is my one true mancrush. Ask my girlfriend if you don't believe me.

Yeah you're posting your porn stash, but, bro...




...they don't even put that s**t down in a controlled fashion. That's like doing a bench press and just tossing the weights over your head. KAY DONE GUYS LOLOLOLOL.

Listening to ya'll is even harder than lifting.

The questionable judges be damned.
I accept this loss. I'll win the next fight.
