Side bends are boutta become the new Lu raises

Love it when this channel showcases pro athletes in this format. It just hyped them the hell up and it so cool seeing what the best of the best do in their sport

His speed under the bar is absolutely ridiculous.

A lot of weightlifters' bodies look very tight and tense. Like as talented as they are, they are very much raw strength athletes who are built perfectly move the bar. Paredes in comparison has such incredible elasticity, range, and stretch reflex to his movement, he can just flow. He seems like a raw athlete who could probably be an elite sprinter, jumper, or footballer if that's what he chose to do instead.

Yes, warm up and recovery is an often overlooked factor in performance. This guy know that days off allow his body to recover from fatigue. And warm ups are a great way to gauge your physical state

He's the kind of guy who clearly would have been elite in literally any sport he tried and just happened to end up in weightlifting.

Not only is he strong as fuck but he’s also aesthetic as fuck, dude has crazy genetics

105kg strict presser here when I look at him I am impressed of his press.

Could you do an analysis on his technique? Being long-limbed and all

the depth of analysis in this video is extraordinary. amazing content Seb

Great video across the board! Well done

Great video, as usual!

Based on his build, he would’ve been a good 100-400 m sprinter. Crazy strong!

Those deep side bends are for the sneaky important QL muscles deep in the core. They connect from the hips to the spine on each side. Way more than just ab work…

Thats some great content. Thanks a lot! greetings from Brazil

Great video. Enjoyed it very much.

He looks like a converted track and field athlete

Lesman is super clean in training and competition. A good watch.

Amazing I'm speechless this kid rag dolls the weight around like it's nothing no problem. Wholeheartedly, he's the world best.

I like seeing the things that the athletes do before each competition like this. And I agree with another commenter that side bends are about to be added to a lot of people's routines. I also wonder if Lesman does plyo work? His leaps are extraordinary.

This is informative. (Muscle) snatching the same weight as a gauge for how heavier weights will feel works for him. For someone else, it might be tall snatches, but you cant go high in weight with that. I know Kuo Hsing-Chun likes to use snatch high-pulls and Mirko Zanni likes to use tall snatch drops. Having a variant as a steady landpost to how well you'll perform that day is genius. Maybe I'll use 60kg or 70kg snatch balances.

Seb ,You should review about IWF GrandPrix 2023 .There's so many Legit Lift to watch ,Especially Rahmat Erwin Abdullah as Light 81kg Clean&Jerk 202kg even almost get WR 209kg Clean looks Smooth

Lesman and Gor next to each other is a fun comparison of body types lol

Nice piece Seb, but I disagree at least a little with the conclusion. I think Lesman's program actually has a great deal to do with his attaining his place at the very top of the sport... because it's the programme that's allowed him to maximize his obvious gifts. I.e. it may not be the _perfect_ programme for him, but it's the one that's allowed him to achieve true outlier success. And I think that his warmup approach in particular is excellent, and should be mirrored by more high-level weightlifters, and particularly those in the higher weight classes. Maximizing blood flow to muscles and warming connective tissue prior to loading are obviously keys to injury prevention, and his approach is clearly designed to achieve these objectives. Additionally, as muscle (and joint) cross-sectional area rise with overall height and bodyweight, we know that recovery time from exercise trauma also rises. It seems likely that there's some equivalent correlation with the biological changes that take place during warmup activities as well. In the interests of full disclosure: I've used a similar warmup strategy for my own weight training for over thirty years now, and I can report that I've avoided major injury for that entire time period... so yep, I'm probably a not-entirely-unbiased observer 😛 Interestingly, my warmup routines weren't learned in any gym - rather, I learned them while training in martial arts. I never was much of a martial artist, but the approach to prehab that I learned in that pursuit has served me pretty well.

Really nice video. Never heard of him before. Thick lumbar area . Thanks for video !

That’s shoulder press workouts are insane. Weww

Insane muscle snatch

The fast twitch muscle fiber on this guy...

great athlete with impressive speed

This is just crazy!!

His strict presses are very impressive for me.

He makes it look easy

This man paid his dues long before this

You should really record the sessions at 50 or 60fps, you can really get a better feel for how fast these lifts are that way.

Any idea where I can buy that Superman tshirt @1:24 ? Could not find it anywhere, it looks badass.

He's got a solid steel core!

Now that he's moving up to the higher weight class, I'm curious to see if he can snatch 190+ in competition

everything is possible 😮

If you are not covering this man's cycle, you are leaving out an important part of "how does he do it".

How come he looks so jacked? I have an idea😂!!!

Damn so he is insanely good at snatch but probably cant clean with meso. Who do you think wins the total next time? Meso cleans high 220s but only snatches mid to high 170s. Meso prs at 96 are 178/228 which outtotals 187/212 but maybe this guy can clean more in the future?

Nurgisa Adiletuly has been banned from competing, likewise most of the kazakhstan national team who also has been banned from competing including Alexey Churkin, Arli chontey and many more.

He locks out like a speed glitch

7:57 what’s this excerise called

Nice

Bout to go max my side bends out, don’t mind me

No one my age, 61. Imma struggling with 120 lb clean as of last night @ 135lbs bw

9:58 nagissa from kz not competing now seb

The Lesman Paredes I was died forever.

His name might be lesman but he is moreman

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Bro is the footage from Uzbekistan?

Wow what a specimen of a man

We don´t live under a stone. Lesman is pretty well known since 2015. Gregor from all things gym made some videos of him.

I can't get acces with the code :(

Cool

How and why did he switch counties?

Can you do a video on the use of drugs in weightlifting. We all know that all lifters use some sort of drug or PEDs.

clarence kennedy got him fasho

it gets scary when you realize 89kg is so close to 96

How come the Colombian kept hiding him for Rivas???

Doesn't Lasha have a better record?

He looks so damn jacked cause of all that damn test😅

He looks natural as Mike O'Tren...

Black Power, plain and simple.

There's another much simpler explanation to all of your questions, but I'll let you hold your breath until you have another Ilya Ilyin moment.

He looks tall. What are his measurements?

strict OHP 130kg jesus...

I don't think Kazakhstan is competing. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Is he in the Olympics?

Lesman is simply magical; the only one with the physique to match and beat the Chinese Kids

JUICE

Dont do soviet twist they said

How can then place the metal bar on there breast without no bone 🦴 breaking

Side bends are a pretty bad workout for your obliques. Just holding a heavier weight and doing a farmers walk is objectively better core work with less risk of spine injuries with the obviously benefit of grip training.

All of these rop oeople from any country looked jacked because if PEDS

Muscle snatch 115kg 😅

maybe colombia and armenia dont have an anti-drugs bureau?

I don't even have to scroll down and I know some losers will say "Steriods!". Does he on Juice? Very likely, just like everyone on the stage, but these athletes are never taking the drug in order to look like competitive bodybuilders. When everyone on the stage juiced up, to the end they still competing for genetic, hard work and skill.

Average vegan natty 13 yo tiktoker

de caption saying lesbian paredes made me cry lololol

Bro looks like A-train

PEDs

Genetics plus roids = Better than everybody else

Genetics

Only if Clarence Kennedy competed.

Steroids help

Ngl, at first I read “How lesbians train differently from the rest” lol

Yes he has a WR but calling him the best athelte ever is completely overrated.

Definitely not natty

not hard at all...that says all

apart from his asthetic, his records are not impressive as his has touched the 400 mark once only , while moradi ,tian tao, el-bakh, and few have touched this mark more than once

juice

New title: How lesman train differently and take steroids the same! Now he must do the same without steroid snd testosterone help to see where he can reach. Peace, no hate here.

100% drug free of course!!!

No. Lu and other Chinese look way better

That's what you get when you eat clen and tren hard.

Sidebends are not abdominal work!!!!!!!!!

Superior African genetics, is the short answer
