9/9, amazing depth, no wide stances, no arch, cleanest conventional form there is and doesn't even make it look difficult, this is by far the cleanest and best lifting I've seen in a long time. Humble guy, definitely deserves to be on the top. I feel sorry for everyone in the open once he gets out of the junior class.
@@willr1820 Seems pretty good, he's done 170 kg at some sort of pyramid pressing (120,140,160 and 170 right after each other). He can probably log press arround 180-190 kg right now.
@@nolanhughes34 yep, you're right ! And above all the guy looks like a real athlete to my eyes. Not overweight, not crazy muscular (like those bodybuilders on steroids), just in real good shape !
You can see a large difference between his 2nd and 3rd DL attempts too. The weight isn't that much different, but some people look more explosive and then fall off. Either way, most of these lifts just look easy for international stage competition.
Only 21 and he already has an amazing total, not to mention just how damn smooth his lifts were. This man is going to break some serious world records!
Dude i got so emotional watching this what the hell. Like this is what determination is and this is what hard work is. Nothing will ever beat this. This brought tears to my eyes man like damn i love this so much
Think 4 yourself Luke has way more in the tank on his squat and all of his bench press and deadlifts were completed flawlessly he went 9/9 and he weighs much less than the guy he was competing against. I say luke will probably be stronger in the long run, although Pavlo is incredibly strong as well
@@MonsterFishKeepersPH Yeah so?... Bench press is actually what gets affected THE most by body weight, much more than squat and deadlift. So it makes sense. He still literally got the same total, which is the ENTIRE point of powerlifting. Who cares about his bench being weaker, wtf?
@@filiplofgren8023 yea my bad with the 2nd comment, at least the last sentence. i will edit it. I was just originally saying that he beat the other guy with the SAME total, but because of his bw. and my reply to Roy was still just saying that he had the same total despite the lower bench, i mean idk wat Roy meant with his comment anyways because bench is literally not the only exercise in powerlifting...
@Jack have you ever seen the true potential for Asian people? (Personally I have never) The reason why Asian people don’t lift is because Asians showed strength through martial arts and wrestling, not weight lifting. I just want to see one (if you guys know one then tell me)
@@koreaface look at Olympic weightlifting. The lower weight classes are dominated by mostly Chinese. Have you seen sumo wrestlers? Immense strength as well.
When a kid born in 1999 talks about being a 90s kid "You are on this council but we do not grant you the rank of master" When Luke Richardson talks about being a 90s kid "ight imma head out"
My fuckin god it is so refreshing to see someone bench press and move the bar more than 3 fuckin inches with their back reverse arched like a scared cat
@@koreaface yea, exactly. if he just crumbles, they're fucked. If he just needs them to take some of the weight for him then they're useful. Not even two Eddie halls on each side can do much from where they are if it just crumples him.
Well, he had potential to become the best of all time, doing 1010.5 as junior is insane even for non-IPF federations. Sadly he decided to go for strongman so it won't happen.
Looks like he is keeping it "light" in order to set another world record next year... I mean every one of his lift looked like an opener Edit: nvm I have seen pavlo's video
@@JumpDiffusion what are you even saying? Obviously he would lift more at 200, your comment makes zero sense Guy said imagine luke at 180 because that's what pavlo weighs.. He meant imagine if they were the same weight and you want pavlo to weigh even more..?
