Hey guys sorry if you still got adverts, alex put in the shooting stars song in there and there was no way we were going to take that out. It was copyrighted so I apologize if you got a bullshit v-shred add or something. Anyway here is the link to the kickstarter : www.kickstarter.com/projects/theweight/the-weight
I've "followed"/read upon doping and corruption in many sports: from football/soccer🤢🤮 to cycling to baseball etc. From Sochi olympic scandal to Operation Puerto, doping and corruption have always been at the heart of sport. Very eloquently presented Zack. Its not about achieving Utopia but its not out of the realm to pragmatically hope for some improvement in upcoming years
From Korea, the first video I watched was about snatch and crossfit. That time I felt you are a very honest guy, and still. I hope you get the goal and make it happen.Thanks again.
Best UA-cam content this week. Thanks Zack for discussing this in public. Side note: This language is Persoan/Farsi not Arabic. It is the official language of Iran. Iranians don't speak Arabic.
Hello Zack I really want to thank you for those sincere words which are absolutely true. I am from Albania and it goes the same for some of our weightlifters like Romela Begaj, Daniel Godelli, Briken Calja and others. They have been stripped of numerous times form medals and I feel bad for them. I also love the 9:21 where it says "the fall of the last dinosaur of international federations" 😂 Keep up the good work your fans are worldwide
Because you mentioned home runs in baseball, and my particular psychology, I had to look it up. Turns out there was a guy in the NL that hit 58 a couple years ago.
Dammmn so we could have crowdfunded a medal for Clarence this whole time? Or even funnier we could have donated our way to Rippetoe/Castelberry to win a medal
Also, FYI: Shahin Nassirinia is Iranian. Iranians speak, read and write Farsi, NOT Arabic (I want to point this out because it’s like saying Chinese people read and write Japanese...)
Hey Zack huge huge fan! You 100% got me i to this sport and provide the best online knowledge for beginners in a digestible manner. I wanted to ask if you guys plan to continue trying to make this happen even if the kickstarter doesnt work out by july 29th?
man, one time at a world cup in canoeing, the day before races the coaches of the ukrainian kayak team completely scratched all athletes due to the fact that they messed up their doping cycle to where they would have never passed
I would honestly like to see different sanctions like powerlifting where they test and where they don't. That way if you want to do it you are free to without harassment and if you don't you can make sure (hopefully) everyone else isn't also. This would give the "dope em up and see what they can do" crowd a scene and the "no way jose" crowd a scene.
Hi Zack, do you think the tested/untested split can help alleviate this problem? It would still be a problem in international level since what countries care the most will still be the Olympics. But I reckon maybe some can say fuck it and compete at untested meet. If it's big enough then it would take away some monopoly power from singular committee.
Speaking on the baseball thing, the last very prominent player to get popped was Ryan Braun after winning one or two of the hitting titles and playing like an absolute God. Then once he got back his numbers had shot down. (This is all from memory, if someone has the hard stats for him that would be dope)
I can't understand why Russia, Kazakhstan, we in Bulgaria didn't created professional weightlifting shows when our countries was and maybe some are still banned from the IWF. The careers of so many great lifters was ruined. There's no place for drug tests in professional sport. Olympic games should be for amateurs that don't want to use PED's. There are so many sports like boxing, football, powerlifting, strongman that doesn't care about this Olympic mafia where political and financial interest dictate the rules. I want to watch records beyond the human abilities, but I totally lost interest when they started to take medals and send them to other people 8 years after the competition. So what am I watching when after a few years no one of the winner may not be a winner and some records may be erased? What a joke.
I feel like I missed the main point you were trying to make between form and technique. I get that you believe PEDs help not only strength, speed, recovery, but also precision or readiness to train. But I didn't get distinction between form and technique. Are these objective, observable criteria? Once I understand the difference, can I watch a lifter and say, well judging by his/her form (or technique?), the lifter is on PEDs (or not)? Not trying to needle you. Just did not get your point.
Essentially just watch a lifter during the times when they’re a s hot as ever then watch them now. The performance decrease is the objective in that their total is reduced substantially. Their form with these lifts is shaky as well.
@Zack Telander you should message Nick's Strength and Power about the powerlifting film so he can spread it and hopefully get more backing in one of his news videos.
I want to donate, but I’m from Europe and I wonder if I will be able to see it in my country. If not, I still support this cause, but I don’t see a reason donating myself.
Historically, in sports overall, the US have been one of the worst culprits when it comes to doping, and in sports like track and field, arguably the worst. But maybe there is too little money in weightlifting for US athletes to dope, but for me, saying that US athletes are clean rings as false as saying that Russian athletes are clean. I'm not sure whether I disagree with Zack on this because he is biased, or because he knows stuff.
As I understand, in the book " The White Prisoner, Galabin Boevski's Secret Story" the author claims there was official favoritism towards Naim Suleymanoglu.
I think there should be tested and untested federations BUT: the Olympics should be clean. However even in clean sports, doping happens but just enough to be under the limit if being popped. Basically because there is a genetic variable to how much testosterone people can naturally have, (I think its between 235 and 1075ng/dL) however there are anomalies and to account for this doping agencies will allow usually up to around 1400ng/dL before it's a positive). For those wondering, how does this work? Well the way your body carries testosterone through to muscle cells is through red blood cells, these carry the necessary nutrients and hormonal data to develop growth and recovery. This is important because this can range from cycle of steroids then blood collection or just a natural blood collection, the only indication of any foul play is abnormally high red blood cell count(this is how Lance Armstrong did it), so basically when it comes to doping in sports athletes at the top will always walk on that tightrope. Just enough testosterone carrying red blood cells in the blood to not get popped. This is why Lance Armstrong talked about how during his training cycle he would have to wake up during the night to raise his heart rate to ensure the red blood cells were flowing because the bloods thickness causes much higher risk for blood clots.

Hey Zack, did you know that, according to studies, there are two foods that naturally increase your testosterone?
If the weight becomes a thing you're going to need a Hollywood trainer to get in shape....m. VSHRED
Brother ,this is the most demotivating and depressing thing that can happen
So is lifting now worthy 😔, if the dopers are just winning the show.
Look into the copyright deadlock thing, it will help you avoid this.
If you want more female viewers maybe don't have such an overly sexualized co-host. Yes, I'm talking about mattress.
Hi from a lady friend 👋
This is what Clarence Kennedy is talking about in his Q&A on why he doesn't compete, right?
Yup
Also bc he's on roids
@@patrickl5290 everyone in the highest level is on roads lol

The mattress is just so cute... congrats to the video editor
mattress knows some ruusian too
President Camacho Spava mi se - although looks like Russian, is not - Cyrillic font - so Serbian more likely. Odd choice
It's Serbian
It says “I’m sleepy”
Best of luck for the movie Zack! It'd be interesting to see more movies by lifters for lifters
Lies again? Gold + Silver + Bronze like ippt test
Only 0.5% 😲 😂
Hi Zachary Hansen Telander, I’m also part of the 0.5%! Annnnd I have been following you even before you started this channel 😉 ciaooo
Weightlifting in 2030 :
Brad dingleberry power snatching 400 kilos
Shahin would have spoken in Farsi if I am correct, not Arabic.
Goodbye Zack! This is in case you go missing
He said in the podcast with Max “don’t come after me with all your fucking lawyers, I have no money”
I've "followed"/read upon doping and corruption in many sports: from football/soccer🤢🤮 to cycling to baseball etc. From Sochi olympic scandal to Operation Puerto, doping and corruption have always been at the heart of sport. Very eloquently presented Zack. Its not about achieving Utopia but its not out of the realm to pragmatically hope for some improvement in upcoming years
Also a lady! Hi team. And thanks Zack, learning lots
12:13 Well at least MrBeast thought Kendrick was legit so, hold your head up big guy
Shit that was pretty random lol
Just checked it's the real Mr Beast. Never thought of him as a weightlifting fan.
Harry Garrett haha
From Korea, the first video I watched was about snatch and crossfit. That time I felt you are a very honest guy, and still. I hope you get the goal and make it happen.Thanks again.
That elbow “injury” was the fakest thing I’ve ever seen oh my god
He clearly had the lift easy until he threw it
Best UA-cam content this week. Thanks Zack for discussing this in public.
Side note: This language is Persoan/Farsi not Arabic. It is the official language of Iran. Iranians don't speak Arabic.
Who else noticed that MrBeast had the one positive comment on Kendrick's video??
I fking love your content bro, it's so well investigated. Thought out and created! I hope continue
great, GREAT video man, keep going
Yoooo that clip from Bald and Bankrupt though! Love that channel
y’all should feature clarence kennedy
Another lady checking in.
Hii sweet
I watch this channel and I’m a lady! Love your videos! Thank you for all of your hard work!
Great video, bro. Hope you keep making more of these
Everyone just donate a dollar?
Those tomatoes really showed off your editing skills, I'm impressed

Just donated to movie! Let’s make this happen guys!!
0.4 gang rise up. Only for 2 months tho
There are a couple ladies here, whoot! Love ya Zack!
Thank you zack for bringing this topic to light!
Because you mentioned home runs in baseball, and my particular psychology, I had to look it up. Turns out there was a guy in the NL that hit 58 a couple years ago.
And the amount of pitchers throwing 95+ is higher than ever
Well said, Zack! I completely agree that this sport can and should exist in a clean environment, especially without all of the corruption.
Dammmn so we could have crowdfunded a medal for Clarence this whole time?
Or even funnier we could have donated our way to Rippetoe/Castelberry to win a medal
absolutely right....hope you got the amount of money for the weight...cheers
I also am part of that .5%

Make Zack telander the president of weightlifting
yooo you're back w them sweet beats in the background
I watch your channel all the time :)
Wow I had no idea. Thank you for enlightenment
Strong athletes, it is a pity that right now politicized the sport.
If you’re Canadian, you know who Ben Johnson is and what he meant.
Super interesting
Hey all girl here 👋😉
I suggest to you to also investigate the Kenteris - Thanou case. I believe something similar happend.
We love you Zack, thank you for having the balls to say the truth!

Holla from that 0.5%
Love you ❤️
Please add the C.K. strenght guy! aka Clarence from Hogwarts!
Love the polly bridge music
So what does Pyrros Dimas have to say in regards to Shahin Nassirinia's comments? It's pretty serious stuff.
Does this mean the end of weight lifting in the Olympics? I'm not confident of the future of this sport.. :(
very informative - likely all true... now take 10 steps back because the sport is tetering on disapearing forever... you are contributing to that
This is not exactly what I thought you meant by buying and selling medals...its even more messed up.
Right? I was expecting some eBay shit hahaha
Little correction.They speak Farsi in Iran not Arabic.
Zack's dad exposes cheaters? GOAT
Like the Red vs Blue clip
I feel like the difference between good form with drugs and good form period is what really makes the great lifters great
Yes
I feel like I missed the main point you were trying to make between form and technique. I get that you believe PEDs help not only strength, speed, recovery, but also precision or readiness to train. But I didn't get distinction between form and technique. Are these objective, observable criteria?

Part of the 0.5%!
what's kendrick lamar's movie called?
get clarence in the movie
immediate oscar nominee
JAYPLOP hahahaha
Rick telander is your dad 😳 could have guessed it but never thought about it
@Zack Telander you should message Nick's Strength and Power about the powerlifting film so he can spread it and hopefully get more backing in one of his news videos.
I don't get the technique vs form semantics
do you edit your vids yourself? I dig this stuff
Aján is the fucking Counselor Palpatine of weightlifting
I want to donate, but I’m from Europe and I wonder if I will be able to see it in my country. If not, I still support this cause, but I don’t see a reason donating myself.
the film will be available internationally!
@@zacktelander That's great news! Thanks
No matter how many times I see the face on the mattress, I fucking die.
I can't donate, but i hope so much the film gets completed
How can i sell a olympic medals???

I'm not sure whether I disagree with Zack on this because he is biased, or because he knows stuff.
I mean he specifically talks about this, which is why he gave the specific detail that he was talking about US Weightlifting.
Ya'll need to have Jon North make a cameo in the movie.
Krappfiskarn I wish Mark Rippetoe show up. :)
Little heads up. Iranians aren't arabic, they're indo european. They speak persian, an indo european language with arabic script.
im 17, a lifter and feel unique now xD
Shahin is Iranian, he speaks farsi (or Persian), not Arabic. Love your content though, keep it up.
It's all a lie!😭
I'm gonna go hug my broom stick and cry myself to sleep lol
Do a few drills with it first
you should put clarence kennedy as the final boss
