Ninh explains, The Rules of Olympic Weightlifting. Respect to these guys, the amount of work required to be able to do this is insane! Like, Share and Subscribe. If someone could also share this to Reddit, that'd be great!
I'm pretty sure they removed the body weight tiebreaker entirely now. Its simply whoever lifts the weight first. think that changed late last year sometime. good video though. would've liked to see you mention the difference between a clean lift and a pressout.
There's also another important rule. When the bar is lifted over your head, your arm must be completely straight at the top of the lift. If your elbows are bent, it's a bad lift.
I couldn't watch more than the first 90seconds as they clearly don't know what they're talking about in terms of technique and stopped after it was explained lifters 'lunge forward' to get the weight overhead in the jerk 🤦🏻♀️ that would actually cause you to loose the bar forward and instead you should attempt to remain straight in the dip and drive! The fact that the video omitted mentioning the importance of locked out elbows and someone had to comment about this important issue (else it's a No Lift) shows me i was right 🤷🏻♀️
@@anoeska4564 I mean lunge forward is pretty vague and arguably correct. If you do a split jerk it's similar to a position sometimes called the forward lunge, that's where they're coming from. Also it's a fun 3 minute video, not a judging course
Those bars are built to withstand a ton of weight. I once saw a video where some guys put a literal ton of weight on either side. And lifted it with a crane. The bar looked like a giant horseshoe after it was lifted, but it was still in one piece
Great video. You should do a video on Kabaddi. It is one of the most ancient sports in the world, the 2nd most popular sport in India, and the Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) is fast catching up to cricket in popularity. It is also popular across South Asia. Given the size of South Asian population, Kabaddi is among the most popular sports in the world, even if it doesn't have much popularity elsewhere. I would also say that in rural India, Kabaddi is more popular than cricket (which is more elitist). There are videos on RU-vid of PKL matches and international matches.
+Ninh Ly OH, I didn't know that since I am somewhat new to your channel, but thanks for the reply and its too bad they did that. I guess if you do ever "re-upload" the video, you would have to replace the PKL footage with international footage. Not making any demands, but you would get lots of views from India, though I am not sure how much that translates to RU-vid money for you. Indians flood videos having to do with Indian stuff. Thanks again!
Well, I'm considering re-making the video with different footage, but I might run into the same problem. In the meantime, it's still uploaded elsewhere ... www.dailymotion.com/video/x382o8h
+Ninh Ly Thanks for that link. The only correction I would make is that the chanting "Kabaddi" continuously rule isn't really enforced, but rather 30 seconds is given for each raid. Chanting while exhaling without inhaling was a way to time things back in olden times, but now that Timers and Stopwatches are a thing, the rule isn't really enforced. Great video overall, too bad Star Sports reacted in this ridiculous way. They should be promoting the popularization of the sport, not enforcing BS copyright claims on an instructional video.
Yes, that's correct. In the modern age of stopwatches, they generally time 30 seconds. But before then, chanting Kabaddi was a way of keeping time! And yes, Star Sports sucks ass. Thanks for your support!
So you explained that with 2 red lights the lift doesnt count, but for the exception of lifts that couldnt be lifted what are other reasons for red lights and why? I really think you should be including this. You cant just mention a rule and that just dont explain it..
I wonder if you would consider making a video on goalball. It is a sport created and played by blind and visually impaired people. It's an event in the summer Paralympics and is truly a worldwide game.
Ninh Ly Fair enough. I'm not surprised I am the first to request it. Also, the game is so very unique and niche (i.e. it's not a sighted game adapted for the blind) that it would probably take more research than usual. I just thought I'd put the bug in your ear, just in case.
Thank you.... Just thanks man.... For creating such a channel! Thanks for this one as I was waiting for ages for it! Even though its optional ... You bet I AM dancing after watching this!
It's as explained in the video. A successful lift is where a competitor successfully hoists the weight above their head, steady with minimal movement for roughly 3 seconds using the correct technique. Failure to do so - red light.
@@NinhLyUK That doesn't explain what a red light offense is constituted as, which was my actual question, not what you just answered. Things like "is twisting during the front rack to stabilize okay" or "can the feet take as many steps as necessary during recovery of the C&J" etc.
The gent dancing at the end does so to highlight the fact that his country will be gone in the next twenty or so years due to flooding caused by climate change.
I'm always worried somebody is going to drop those things on their foot when the buzzer goes off. They're professionals, however; they know what they are doing.
If I get enough demand yeah, but it'll be similar to the demand for wall ball, Gaelic handball, fives, eton wall game etc. All of which are played under similar rules.
@@markinglese3874 If the bar is not moving in either the vertical or horizontal plane, it is deemed to be in control. The judges sound the buzzer a couple of seconds after this is achieved to indicate that the lift has been judged and that the lifter may put the weight down.
Question, I just pr’d on a snatch, or at least I think I did, I attempted to bring the bar all the way up, but my elbows were bent and for a second the weight was stationary (but never touched my chest), then I straightened my arms out. Did I fail the lift because of this?
What you describe is known as a press-out and in competition it's going to earn you a red light from the judges. In my opinion when you're not in competition, it's better to press out and complete the lift than to drop it.
Because the footage I took was from a male event? If I have enough footage in one video, I don't go searching for more. My videos on Netball and Roller Derby only featured women, even though men also contest these sports. Not everything is sexist. But the people who imply sexism where none existed - always are.
#You can dance if you want to ... you can leave your friends behind ... cause if your friends don't dance, and if they don't dance well they're no friends of mine#
Believe it or not, that would make people whine even more saying 'what about this' etc. I'd rather just keep people on their toes. Way more fun that way!
I already did ... and it got removed. Star Sports, who owns the rights to Pro Kabaddi filed a copyright claim against my video. I fought it and lost. I'm considering re-making the video with different footage, but I might run into the same problem. In the meantime, it's still uploaded elsewhere ... www.dailymotion.com/video/x382o8h

Last thing before you watch a competition. If it's super-heavyweight division, you must know in advance that Lasha Talakhadze is probably gonna win it.
@@NinhLyUK yeah, I'm from Georgia like him. We've had quite a tradition in weightlifting, including 3 Olympic champions, Rafael Chimishkyan(Georgian born, but with Armenian descent), Kakhi Kakhiashvili and Giorgi Asanidze before him, one of them(Kakhiashvili) 3 time champion(unfortunately non of them counted for Georgia, first time he won in 1992 as member of so called united team and after that he moved to Greece). But non of them quite like Talakhadze. Lasha still has to win as much as Khakhiashvili did, but what he has done at his age and the way he has dominated the highest division of the sport is unpresidented.
You mean this one ... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NrJ6WdoM8zQ.html (Dude, check out my channel before you request stuffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff like that).
Ninh Ly oh yeah.. I didnt really think about this I just love how you make vids and was like: man. Would be cool if he made about foosball But I forgot it is not even a sport
Just fyi the guy at very start of the video representing the USA was accused of rape fairly recently. Probably not the best person to have in a video about weightlifting. His is name is Colin Burns. Also the bodyweight tiebreaker rule isnt used anymore. Now its just who ever lifts more in the snatch. Thanks for making this video though, its a good thing that more people are aware of the sport :)
Ah, I didn't know that about Colin Burns. Whoops. I knew I should have used Lidia Valentin instead ... she's also a lot easier on the eyes. Thanks for the comment.
