There’s two certainty’s with gigachad in the clean and jerk, aslong as he can clean it without struggling too much out of the hole he will jerk it. Most aesthetic jerk in weightlifting currently!
Oh man just a year ago, they kicked this guy out of 89 in favor of Tian Tao+Li Dayin for the 2023 Asian Champs and he showed his displeasure lifting as a light 96 by throwing away the gold medal in the clean and jerk at an easy 212 and going straight to 223 to prove that he was the best and putting him aside was wrong. He failed to lift 223 and since that competition, it's been nothing but gains until he became China's most dominant male lifter today. And barring injury, he is set to become China's heaviest male Olympic champion weightlifter ever, with the second heaviest going all the way down to Lu Yong's 85kg gold in 2008.
@@huanleminh6288 I can't really tell how tall he is and I don't for a second believe the 183cm he's listed under on wiki. Anyway, after Paris, he'll have to drop to 96kg for the 2028 LA Olympics.

-After seeing him doing pulls and front squats at 240 in the training you can't help but wonder how he can clean & jerk 230+... This guy has insane jerk...
haha they should’ve included the part where they talk about Liu complaining about losing muscle definition after moving into this weight class, that’s where “he looks quite muscular” came in
hahaha I'm chinese - we didn't take any offence. He got Gold AND broke 2 world records you can say whatever you want about him! >_< but yeah I took it to mean that he's not got a lick of fat on him... although as you say, it's possible to take it as 'he's got no brains, talent, technique, skill etc...'
225 is 496 pounds which is bonkers, but 232 is a 511 pound clean and jerk. Liu has so much more strength in his jerk that he is gonna decimate it in the olympics.
This is madness! The world strongman axle press sits at ~478lbs and it takes a 300lbs+ man to lift.... This guy is throwing over 500lbs and weighs 222!
More surprisingly - last year he won the gold medal in 109kg of Asian Games, while he weighted 99.5kg ONLY that day... meaning he won over ALL competitors that were 20 LBS HEAVIER than him!

The interesting thing is, that his lockout looks like the one from a power jerk. I´m curious if he actually started power jerking first and it got changed to a split jerk later on. Either way, his jerk is simply amazing!
496 lbs is a stunning amount of weight, that is other-worldly to be able to snatch that and then he did 511.4 lbs ----------------- what the actual efff! Completely mind blown, ungodly amount of weight !
Gigachad has drawn the line in the sand. I don’t think Meso is his equal right now (disregarding his injury). Akbar maybe if he gets more used to the new class. It might be that Karapetyan and Tsikhantsou might be more formidable. Garik looked like there’s more than that 185 but for a guy with great pulling power he doesn’t clean very well his elbows are always close to his knees. The powerhouse from Belarus has missed the 225 the last two comps but I know he can do it. Says he’s done 230 in training.
I found my self so proud of him at the moment. I have no idea why. That was the most unexpected weird feeling. A new Titan being born? A mark in history for sure. Surely it will stand? People say there is always someone better than you out there. They forget to mention moments like this when you become the one that is better and no one else is. So no, there isn't always someone "better". I miss the days of The US and even the UK when our athletes weren't just great runners. Our governments have changed their greatness 60 years ago. They became great at bombing, imprisoning, invading, stealing, murdering, injustice, and hate of one's own people. China is good at those things, but it looks like they are doing far more than putting a new face forward. China is going after hearts and minds. Our governments are so powerful that they simply don't care. China will be next to become something unrecognizable, perhaps sooner than later as they do everything at light speed. But for now, that huge young man just lifted the world - and I'll take it. How does it feel to have been there and what realizations struck you after? You can tell it hit me in my heart. Sports just doesn't do that for me generally but this time it did. Did you grow silver hair after this? Did you hold your breath? Did you spill your drink? Did you call everyone? Did you get to congratulate him and his team or did they keep him isolated from everyone? Thanks you guys great video and I look forward to the next. Are you going to cover the Olympics secretly, privately? Or is that still 100% owned by NBC and held in the tight fist of the Olympic committee? Can you afford to go? It is most certainly a rich persons thing which most people can't afford. What do you think about boycotting the Committee, and world funding a real world games? Just asking after the fact.
Liu’s jerk is just unparalleled. A lot of lifters will be quite shaky through the shoulders and elbows at max attempts, not this guy. Stable as a rock.
Even if he uses drugs, it's still a world record and incredibly impressive. I'm not saying he is using drugs.. just that I don't think that would even be able to take away from this massive achievement. An incredible lift by an incredible athlete
Watch the full session here 👉 www.weightliftinghouse.tv
His Jerk is insane. He just teleports under the bar, it's incredible.
Fantastic lockout. Just rigid.
Just got a seriously strong upper body
If he cleans it, he jerks it :D

He beat the WR by 1kg. But he is up in the ranking with 413kg, 12kg above the next highest
