Can't wait for Karlos to do 200kg snatch just like that next year. He seriously progresses so fast that it's just insane. I'm so proud of our Bulgarian star 🇧🇬
Congrats and eine ehre to Max Lang on his international retirement. Still love the old school videos of the gang at Bundesliga. Great lifter and ambassador to the sport. You will be missed!
@declanosullivan8749 he did look in great shape at Paris. All his lifts looked easy. Probably his best shape. He would have to cut to 88 if they pick that category
Karlos is yet to blossom! All the best to him. Really sad about Andreev, so much potential. Insane, insane Blagoev, 195.5, he was just built for snatching. Zdravko Stoichkov (oldschool Bulgarian weightlifter) told me personally that when Blagoev snatched it was a thing of beauty.
I will miss watching his fierce lifts, but I congratulate him on his marriage and hope he finds happiness and satisfaction with his plans for the future.
If the IWF doesn't take action to make the sport more profitable, it won't be long before big names retire and new talents give up before showing their full potential.
He should see if he can get a contract in Kosovo like Rostami. It’s not too far from Bulgaria. It’s absurd. He’s one of the top 30/35 male lifters in the world, 2nd best in his country and he can’t even scratch out a decent living.
Bulgaria is completely heavy duty individualistic capitalist libertan spartan state & society everyone is alone responsible for his/her own success & failure even their kids are spartan & independent compared to the spoiled kids in other nations. Even USA & Americans look like Commies in socialism compared to BG & Bulgarians.
I'm gonna start by saying I love your channel and really appreciate what you do. That being said, you need to talk about what's going on with Nino. He is one of the best well known athletes in the sport and you are THE news channel for weightlifting, you can't ignore it.
Seb isn’t gonna touch that mess with a ten-foot pole. It’s not his place to talk about stuff like that, no matter whether it involves a well-known athlete or not.
I noticed he used to have a massive "cave in" a.k.a. his knees point inwards during the stand-up and any squat he did, but now he keeps his knees in the right place, over each foot. Improvements in technique as well.
That's called getting stronger. Chuck a few more kg on the bar and watch his knees cave like before. Knees go in as the adductors assist in extending the hip, as long as balance is preserved it is not a bad thing, it might even by mechanically advantageous, which is why the body does it reflexively. It's not 'better technique' to have 0 knee cave, if you had to sacrifice some weight to do it.
@ He did it on his max weight attempts and now he doesn't while lifting 10 kg more, the level of effort was similar since he was hitting his max each time. I would say it's both an improvement in strength and in technique.
I love that we have both WH and Sika Strength news shows. The former is like the big broadcaster: straight men delivering the latest, all very fancy and professional; the latter is like the Channel 87 News at 2am: a little rough around the edges, some not-for-public consumption content, but just as damn good.
Our federation (Bulgaria) gives bonuses per broken WR. Not by how much the record gets broken. So, its better for Karlos to break each record by 1 kilo each time. That way he would get the most in bonuses .. So 183, 225 is spot on on what he’ll probably do in a few days
If that’s the case then why did Karlos tie the world record total in Phuket on his 1st attempt cl& jk and then jump 8 kg to obliterate the record ( ok it was cl & jk record also. If he played his cards well he could have had at least 2 world record totals even though he failed at 224 twice.
@@JohnDoherty-dl2fz no idea 🤷♂️ maybe cause he’s a young stud 🤣 fact of the matter is weather they break a WR by 1 or by 10 they still get paid the same. Maybe he wanted to make a statement dont know
Karlos is like the new Andrei Aramnau, dominating everything and lifting world records as a 20-year-old. Just hope he doesn't get injured like Aramnau who chased Yuri Zaharevich's records (210,250) and got a lot of injuries. That's why people love Karlos, even if he won the olympics, he doesn't rest like Akbar Djuraev and Liu Huanhua. But he competes and lifts world records for the fans.
370 squat, 190 bench, 322.5 deadlift gives a 882.5 total placing him 283rd in the world (fully tested federations only). Current world record holder in powerlifting is Jesus Olivares with 470 squat 272.5 bench and 410 deadlift so make of that what you will
This will be the last time Karlos will compete at 89kg. Blagoy Blagoev in May 1, 1983 in Varna as an 90kg Bulgarian lifter made a total of 420 so Karlos is going to do 420 at 89kg. Seb when Karlos goes to 96kg this is you chance to complete against him since that is your weight class.
Carlos is incredible, but I’m still not over Lu being gone from the sport hated to see him age out. Also, the rap that he must’ve accepted with the EPO was a sore way to exit.
13:15 That really depends on his mini-max, so wherever his weakness is. I know people (including myself) who will either make a bench attempt look easy or fail entirely bc they fail right at the chest. That being said, that usually goes for max grip benches and it didn't look like that for him. Honestly can't tell what his max would be, it'd just be a wild guess. Compared to the best IPF lifters, that's still quite far away. Then again, once you get to certain loads, there is quite some difference between the top couple guys in the SHW division. He is now ranked 291 of all time (among tested lifters) without weight restrictions. His DOTS score is 454, which is certainly better than I have done but not national level in competitive federations, I don't think. That squat is pretty big though. Quite a ways away from the tested WR but ranked 81 of all time among tested lifters. And to be fair, his total is near the biggest totals I have seen in person (although the people I have seen total in this range were a lot lighter). All that said, that's huge for a first PL meet, especially if you consider that he might not have trained for this (much). And yeah, I compared him to the very best. He is obviously in the 99th percentile. 8th biggest tested total in NZ and 2nd biggest tested squat.
Rizki may be the number one sinclair. But, that 365 was hell of a performance from Rizki. While Karlos always lifted like its Tuesday, i dont really think Rizki is the GOAT tbh
he could potentially beat his record here at 89 then move up to 96 and hold the record there if he wanted too and then move up again to 102 and most likely grab a record there lmfao
Of course, but the best weightlifter squat is at 400 KG, that is for a sport where you don´t compete with a back squat, since it's an accessory lift. 370 is still amazingly good. Not the best in Powerlifting for obvious reasons.
That’s why I think If you are top athlete you have to try and get your social media up as much as possible. Most of the top athletes get pennies from the actual sport.
Bozhidar, the bulgarian who won a bronze medal at the olympics, said in a recent interview that he have to ask his coach for 25 dollar (50 leva) so that he can buy his family food. The bulgarian sports funding is a complete joke, dont believe them saying that they paid Karlos and Bozhidar the money they promised.
Kinda sad about Max Lang not going to Olympics even once, he competed in 3 Olympic cycles. Very competitive at Europeans (3rd to 6th overall was normal) and sometimes top 10 at worlds. He had his own UA-cam channel for a few years. Can’t believe that BS about Andreev. Won Europeans last year, Bronze medal in Paris and they won’t pay him appropriately. Prime candidate to lift for another country. Kosovo isn’t far from Bulgaria. Why not go join Rostami and establish a new powerhouse in Europe. Seb you used the word outlier to describe Karlos. I agree but another superb lifter who wasn’t mentioned among the great 90-96’s was my boyhood hero David Rigert. Many times EC and WC in the 70s and undefeated from 71-80 tho he did bomb in 2 Olympics which he should have won easily.
I can't believe sports enthusiast celebrities, UA-camrs, etc. can't organise channels, merchandise and advertisers in order not to let talants quit the sport over finance. Such a shame.
He will be missed. The powerlifting squat was a bit high.but ok. The weight wasnt extreme..kind of normal. The bench looked good but, the weight was light. The feadlift was great. He had another 20 kilos in him.
TLDR: The bulgarian lifters of today are natty and being screwed left/right/center financially as well, but they are close to the roided to the gills weightlifters of the 80s/90s in terms of performance. Crazy af. What keeps them going at all ? PS: Karlos himself said they've tried to put something in his food some time ago so he can pop on the testing for a certain championship and therefore refusing to eat the food being given to everyone in these training camps.
I watched your "day in the life of Karlos Nasar" video. AND at no time did he eat a crazy amount of tuna meatballs. In fact he didn't eat any tuna meatballs. What's up with that ? I've been eating 50 meatballs a day to be like Karlos, for nothing !
Amazing content but selling tickets to people to watch the world weightlifting championship is ridiculous, in my opinion. That doesn't help to sport at all. National tvs or hopefully there will be other ways to watch it.
This is an Olympic sport not powerlifting championship to stream and make money off. You can join the chanel and support them by all means but charge for world championship is beyond a bloody joke.

Omgggggg. Unbelievable. Let's go Bulgarian. From Brazil! Awesome

Congrats and eine ehre to Max Lang on his international retirement. Still love the old school videos of the gang at Bundesliga. Great lifter and ambassador to the sport. You will be missed!
So he did it with a body weight of almost 94 kg. Karlos came close to Sohrab Moradi's record in the old 94 kg class (Snatch: 189 kg, C&J: 233 kg).
He will do 230kg for sure, he won't be able to resist
New weight class might push him to go up. Depends what the olympic category is
@@josephfeliciano6415 I would love to see a 98kg Karlos, he would be a worldbreaker.
Er, well…more of a worldbreaker
if he gains weight probably, but all his 230 cleans look crazy heavy when hes actually near 89
@declanosullivan8749 he did look in great shape at Paris. All his lifts looked easy. Probably his best shape. He would have to cut to 88 if they pick that category
@@josephfeliciano6415and an extra 1kg if 88 is the Olympic category is nothing really
Karlos is yet to blossom! All the best to him. Really sad about Andreev, so much potential.
Insane, insane Blagoev, 195.5, he was just built for snatching. Zdravko Stoichkov (oldschool Bulgarian weightlifter) told me personally that when Blagoev snatched it was a thing of beauty.
WH ... great upload as usually ! Carlos ... you're a masterclass athlete ... all the best to you! Greetings from Nova Scotia, Canada!
Sad to hear about Andreev, he's one of my favorite lifters to watch. So much power
I will miss watching his fierce lifts, but I congratulate him on his marriage and hope he finds happiness and satisfaction with his plans for the future.
If the IWF doesn't take action to make the sport more profitable, it won't be long before big names retire and new talents give up before showing their full potential.
"retire" you mean get popped lol
Sad to see Max retire but happy for his next journey. Thanks for ten great years Max!
Carlos looks like tank these days
He is, crazy amount of lean muscle, looks like a100m sprinter from the 80's
By the way, Karlos' 415 as a 94 beats 413 best total of 102's... insane
An astounding weightlifter and possessing extraordinary character for his (tender) years. No wonder Bulgaria is so very proud of him.
A 415 total is insane and i can tell that he has more in the tank than 230. He did a 15kg jump he can easily do 230 at 89kg.
Thank you Max for your dedication to the sport. Have a great retirement!
Not this again
@ Wait what? I don’t get it lol did I do something wrong.
@@BenButler50 oh wait... you posted something very similar to a classic WLHOUSE troll comment haha. You're all good!
@@WeightliftingHouse I was like damn sorry Seb 💀 Just trying to be nice to Max haha Great documentaries you’re putting out! Keep it up.
“301kg it was slower then I maybe would’ve anticipated” brother WHAT!?
Bozhidar retiring is kinda sad, but I wishb him all the best
Very sad! He is in the middle of his career
He should see if he can get a contract in Kosovo like Rostami. It’s not too far from Bulgaria. It’s absurd. He’s one of the top 30/35 male lifters in the world, 2nd best in his country and he can’t even scratch out a decent living.
Can't believe he's retiring. He's one of my favorite lifters - very exciting to watch. He has so much more left to give!
We could of seen 160+ and 200+ from him at full 81kg
It’s so sad what happened to Bozhidar, an amazing athlete who deserves all the support of his country, he should compete for another country then.

boy is on serious gear

Hammer. Karlos has already been one of the most tested lifters for several years if that’s what you’re referring to. No problems.

why is Li Wenwen out
prime ilya was sth else
Even suggesting that Li Yan won't win the women's +87 is a bit weird
It’s a possibility though, we’ve seen Chinese lifters smash records in domestic comps but struggle to match it on the international stage
He's also still a so young. The pee burns tiolet bowls.
