To call Lasha the strongest weightlifter ever you have to compare him to names like Pisarenko, Taranenko, and Rezazadeh. So let's do just that!

The movement is to explode through the legs to move the weight up, without relying on contact. upper body strength is achieved through other movements, and upper body strength isn't as key as lower body force production. its really more having a strong back for the pull, strong shoulders, triceps, etc for overhead stability

It is slightly annoying that people just assume training is constantly improving because nowadays everything is more "sciency". Despite the fact that most studies just confirm what good trainers have known for a long time. I'm not even sure that the general training knowledge has increased since while the good stuff has certainly become a lot more accessible, there is also that much more bs floating around.

He is the only super of the lifters you mentioned that has served a suspension. Doesn't mean he is cheating now but only a naive person would think he isn't. Of all the other guys you mentioned only Taranenko admitted to using drugs, he didnt serve a ban so he could very well have gotten away without it becoming public. Kurlovich and Pisarenko never tested positive, sure they had a suitcase full of stuff but officially they never served a ban and I am not naive enough to even begin to think they didnt cheat too. Rezazadeh never served a ban. One other thing isn't bodyweight a factor in determining the strongest of all-time? Not fair to compare a 160k guy to a 60k guy but in reality the smaller guy is moving more weight in comparison. Just a thought and my humble opinion. Oh and judging isnt exactly perfect these days either.

99% of the time I'm not big on using "strongest in the world" with Olympic lifters because they have such a narrow band of expertise and quite simply never use the kind of weights that you see powerlifters and strongmen using so it all feels off, but Lasha is different. The sheer explosivity he has with enormous weights, and how he'll do things like squat near 350k for reps without looking like he's near failure, he's on another planet.
