What I love about Olivia is her obvious love for the Sport. Just watch her approach the stage for almost every lift; she's usually got a grin on her face, like she knows something we don't.
Met with her in June at a training camp and she said her favorite thing to do is actually squat. Her balance and movement ratios for heavy weights are just right for her to accomplish the gold medal at the Olympics
Extraordinaria atleta, felicidades Olivia, si sigue así gara oro en las próximas olimpiadas de París, y si ánimo de exagerar, dependiendo de su dedicación y cuido será la primera tricampeona olímpica 🎉
Clearly the best female lifter in world drug free, having just beaten the Chinese and North Korean world record holding weightlifters heads up in the same competition down to the last cj lifts. Three golds for Reeves, preceded by a 218 kg back squat published in video in recent training. 227 coming up! As interesting is her reporting that until fairly recently she was training three days per week and then added a day. So much for 8/12 sessions per week for drug free lifters, impossible, and no living in a full time training camp year round. Says she actually attends college, perish the thought. So much for the false premises of the day on training and personal life for lifters not trapped in systemic full time likely performance enhanced lives around the world.
@@Ale55andr082 Depends on the country to which you are referring. In the USA, drug testing of elite weightlifters by USADA has been dogged, relentless and continual for many years both in competition and unannounced out of competition, like it or not to admit by those from one of the many systemic weightlifting doping countries getting skunked as just occurred in this case, over many years exposed by external drug testing authorities. So when an Olivia Reeves, who not only is USA international elite but decimates the two world record holders from China and North Korea heads up in the same competition, very rarely comes along, she indeed represents the exception that proves the rule - the systemic doping countries are going to prevail in weightlifting virtually always.
@@Ale55andr082 hate to tell you & burst your conspiracy theory concepts, but yes she is drug-free. Her personal morality and integrity would not stand for it, she does it because she loves to lift and what makes her so exceptional as she is that she does not train six days a week four hours a day she sleeps 10 hours almost every day. Thus allowing her body to recover and at a young age that is the biggest key for progress. I understand your concept because many other countries financially incentivize their athletes and coaches. She does not have any financial incentives she likes lifting to make her mom and dad and Family and now country proud. There will be a time that she will peak but it is not now still has a few more years to grow.
well, while commenting W-71 in Phuket, @WeightliftingHouse has mentioned she has already done it. And if she has, we can be pretty certain it wasnt some weak-ass 90 degree squat, but a proper ATG as she always does
I believe she has just done it, was it all she had when I spoke to her in June depending on how her body was doing so I would think probably beginning of August may have hit the 220 goal.
If she's taking something she would have to be on a cutting edge protocol to make it past all the U.S. testing. Also note she is showing zero signs of virilization.
I feel bad for women weightlifters, imagine training your whole life and not being as strong as I was when I was 24 after going to the gym for 6 months.
Hunter if you can train for six months and be as strong as the best women lifters in the world, you should train for six years and win the men’s Olympic title. Piece of cake.
So you could full squat 3x body weight, ass to ground, after three months in the gym? Sure you could, pal. Tel me some more about how strong you are you freaking clown
