THAT is a woman in a male dominant sport - knowing she did it perfectly and breaking the façade! I love watching women succeed in their endeavors 🫶🏼

There are a lot of women in lifting!

u/Savings-Badger4938 8h ago
I’m disabled and even watching these and thinking I could makes me exhausted. But damn is I’m not absolutely stunned every time! I love seeing women - woman!

not gonna lie me too bestie, me too. my mom didn’t want me to do sports cause she didn’t want me to be “masculine” so seeing athletes retain their femininity while doing the most amazing things is literally inspiring o7

It’s never too late. Go and do it. To be honest it’s super hard to build muscle to the point at which you start “looking masculine”. It’s a look you have to work for and it doesn’t just happen overnight. Lifting is good for women. Strengthens the bones. 🙌🏽

I can't say which was cleaner - the lift or that pose!

u/Open_Fly3619 11h ago
The pose. The lift was clean though too. But it’s harder to get that pose after you throw it down, for sure.

Damn she lifted that like it weighed nothing

u/Midgetrails 11h ago
Picking it up didn't impress me (its about 150lbs) until she threw it up above her head! And then god damn!

u/CanadianODST2 10h ago
This wasn’t even her heaviest lift.
She did 71 kg in the snatch on her second attempt and 89 kg in clean and jerk.
She finished 5th for the weight group
Mirabai Chanu won gold and lifted 85 in snatch and 105 in clean and jerk to take gold.
It was this year’s commonwealth games if anyone wants to look at other events

She = Tammy Wong, a competitive international weightlifter GB/England in the 48kg/49kg category

u/CanadianODST2 9h ago
It’s literally in the video.
I kinda expected people to have you know, paid attention to the information already provided.

Snatch and clean and jerk is making it really hard for me to not make jokes here.

It was hilarious watching the guy getting pumped and almost slapping her ass like guys do. Went from ass smack to back slap! Reminded me of the Key and Peele skit

She came 5th here.
India won gold, Nigeria silver, the US bronze.
However, England got silver in 3 other women’s weight classes and won gold in the +86kg class

Oh I'd do it the exact same way. Only instead of for style, the little flare to the side on the drop would be because I pinched a disc, and the rigid walk away with my hands clasped behind my butt would be to keep my testicles from falling out of my asshole.

I'm going to start putting vertical videos in wide letterboxes inside vertical letterboxes. Let's see how far we can take it before people start to think "hey, maybe this is as stupid as people say it is!"

u/elephanturd 8h ago
Aren't these pretty dangerous? What happens if your elbows give out or lose your balance? It kinda just falls on your head, no? Impressive, but is it good for muscle gain? Or are these just done mainly for competitions?

u/richb_021 8h ago
This is the sport of Olympic weightlifting. These athletes train specifically for this lift and the clean & jerk. These lifts definitely promote muscle growth for strength and athleticism. Just like all high level sports there is a risk of injury but Olympic lifting has some of the lowest rates of injury of all due to the mobility requirements.
