One of my greatest moments with Weightlifting was being in the crowd when Pyrros Dimas won his third successive Gold Medal in Sydney. Amazing crowd and one of the greatest competitions in history!!
This photo is of his 215kg Clean & Jerk that won the competition for him!
Some vids of a couple of young, promising juniors I'm looking after.
First is Rosson (15 y.o) Front Squatting a 13kg PB of 153kg!
Second is young Tony (18 y.o) snatching two singles on 50kgs. Tony has only been with me for three weeks but has shown huge improvements!
Well done guys!!
