BULGARIAN Training Was INSANE! 

Yes! 🇧🇬

There are no influences. The Bulgarian population is 85% South Slavs (proto-Bulgarians and Slavs), 10% Roma and 4% Turks, these ethnic groups are segregated to this day.Bulgaria was an ally of Hitler during the war and that's why most Roma became communists and they started to integrate, but then democracy came and they started to be uneducated and commit crimes again. The Bulgarian identity is South Slavic. In this team there were of all ethnicities.

@@krasimirmihaylov9551 Найм е полвина циганин и полвина славянин ,има си и термин за такива хора,неговата турска "идентичност" е на базата на религята а не че е етнически турчин.Също така гледах филма и там личи турската пропаганда "два милиона турци" ДПС доказа че турците са 250 000 ,много от тях цигани например Ахмет Доган.

@@krasimirmihaylov9551 аз говоря за отбора 1980-1990

@Gods Of War That is a great point you made. I totally agree with everything stated. And I even have to disagree with coach D. Miller about the snatch technique of Chakarov. I fully realize his technique is not orthodox as per most weightlifting coaches. However it works extremely well for him. And because he was so used to handling max or near max weights, his technique was very consistent and reliable. If I recall correctly, I think Chakarov had a best snatch of 187.5 kgs. in the 90 kg. Class !!!

@@williamhall9204 I am not blaming coach Miller. I mean he lives an entire ocean away and I trained under the coaching of George Markov. Information about Bulgarian weightlifting training is very rarely accurate in the net so I can't judge mr Miller.

Той говори за времето когато бяхме 9 милиона,

Plus they have good resorts on the Black Sea.

@@Anticommunism99 hey war breaks out. American GIs need place to get drunk.

Ok eric

the bugez in you

😆😆

Plese talk about what they were eating and taking

I'm Bulgarian, and sadly all our great weightlifters (and combat sports athletes like wrestlers, judokas and so on) are living in decent conditions, usually working as trainers. Their bodies are wrecks, though, since that kind of training is not meant for you to last long.

Thank you 💪💪

Shi snatched 170 in early September, don’t think I’ve ever seen him snatch 175, that would match dayins record in the 81kg class not that I’d put it past him lol I think he like lasha can snatch more then what we know of

don't forget and the competition for those conditions next to each athlete was another one from the same category that boost alot

Agree

Which Louis got the max effort from Bulgaria

@@AlejandroSanchez-pl6jw what do you mean

@@Cryptocurrency1O1 Louis combined Bulgarian and Russian method. Conjugate method has two max effort days for bench and Squat from Bulgaria and ;two dynamic effort (focus is technique and speed) from Russia, with different variation of the main lifts

@@AlejandroSanchez-pl6jw nice info thanks 👍😊 And maybe a thing with all three is that they dont focus on longevity?

pork and fresh garden food

😆😆

So you believe that the anabolics were the only reason for achieving world class in weightlifting but most importantly that other nations athletes are natty? LoL, I have some news for you

Do you think they were the only ones doing it? They all did it, they all did the same amount of it. So at the end of the day, again it all came down who is better.

chinese system seems pretty basic tho? i always thought it's mostly the lifters themselves, and them starting as little kids

@@goobgoobgoobgoobgoobgoobgo3656 yeh it’s the athletes being selected for a sport they’re genetically and morphologically suited for, plus unlimited use of chemicals from an age that is quite frankly child abuse, and a culture of excellence that is infectious.

Chinese system is the cool system of Weightifting these days.

Everybody took drugs in those days, just the bulgarians got caught because of the USSR

Escape velocity?

sounds like a video idea...

@@GarageStrength Yes

Yeah but he was raised in bulgaria and trained under abajaev for a few years before he daked the injury to escape to turkey

@@angusroewl7206 That doesn't make him Bulgarian. He is Turkish. Do not talk about something if you don't know the background.

@@enissahin2804 Nobody is saying it makes him Bulgarian. But in the context of sports, the general practice is to describe people by the country they represent, not their ethnic identity, ie someone born in Nigeria can be described as an "English soccer player." Personally, I think it's stupid, but modern western values claim that not doing so would be "racist." (The Nigerian could even angrily deny having anything English in him, state that he hates England, and defiantly assert his Nigerian identity, but the British media would still insist on calling him English lol. Turks, for all their faults (haha), at least have enough self-respect not to fall prey to this idiocy.)

He was bron in Bulgaria. That makes him Bulgarian :D

Sulemanoglu was Bulgarian and the Turkish bought him basically.

He is a Turkish Roma, he is neither Bulgarian nor Turkish, Christian Roma accept Bulgarian identity, few in number Muslim Roma Turkish.. Bulgarians are Slavs.

@@-kr8206 Tf is a Roma. You're trying to say "Pomak". Doesn't matter. He's a purebred Turk. End of story.

​@@cngzsn "purebred"🤣😂😂😂All European Turks have Slavic DNA. You took a "blood tax", go learn history. The Janissary corps were made up of Slavs from the Bulgarian group, whom you took away when they were young. And if you want to know the Roma are not Bulgarians, they are from India, so things are obvious.End of story.

@@-kr8206what you talking about in bulgaria living real turks too they come because first world war and several hundred thousand stay in bulgaria till today they have own villages and mosques, roma gypsies are different Story

@@cngzsn Roma can also be defined as Eskimos if the money is good. Pomacs are Bulgarians, most of them are Slavs (the difference is that they are Muslims). Many of the Christian Roma today are even Bulgarian nationalists. So all this Turkish propaganda is meaningless. In Bulgaria DPS it wins only 3% percent of elections and 6% with votes from Turkey. Stop making propaganda from the cold war because the result will be pro-Russian Bulgaria, you have no chance.The majority of Pomacs are not Roma, you are wrong.

@@existentialerasure because you don't earn money in weightlifting

@@existentialerasure not really, football is a skill sport for a start. Secondly unless you’re a heavyweight sized person you’re probably not playing football

Priority is the pro sports like Basketball, Football. More incentives to pursue what are life changing contracts in those sports. There is no official system, though throughout the US there are many youth sports teams to get started. However there are now potential future Weightlifters getting exposed to the sport thanks to CrossFit.

Someone mentioned American Football but those athletes also practiced twice a day and they all have familiarity with heavy weights in the gyms as well. Difference is that lifting weights in the gym is secondary to actually getting in the field and practicing football drills (which is bound to get incredibly taxing on the cardio system since it's basically full on sprints and drills over and over), but it should still tax the CNS differently compared to olympic weightlifting. Incentive for athletes to gain generational wealth is going to drive athletes to train to their absolute limits in whatever sports that they are in though. American Football did that to their athletes in spades. There's no incentive for Americans to go into weightlifting unless they're really passionate about it from a young age (and it'd have to be someone special too) because it doesn't pay, and chances are, weightlifting can't be a full time job for a lot of these athletes. Oh, and also strict (almost draconian) drug testing requirements. Btw I don't see the issue as the Americans doing anything wrong specifically (powerlifting records achieved by Americans using different training methods proves this), but it's more like they might have instinctively realized first hand that going balls to the walls on their max weight for (god knows how many sets every session) isn't the best practice for actually progression after they get to a certain level of their training.
