I like to think I'm the same, whenever I'm doing all the shopping in one go.

The snatch always frightens me when their shoulders go that far back on the lift. The strength they have to stabilise it is insane

Counting I’ve got the strength to lift two Chanel bags with miniature poochies in them , I’m much impressed by what some humans can achieve. Some of the women are SOOO strong !!

Also when the metal kinda bends and then they smash the thing on the floor

SCARY

Makes my balls ache watching it.

But kudos to them all the strength and techniques involved lifting that amount of weight is amazing.

It was always funny watching the big guys, who had lost all their shoulder and thoracic mobility from 'concentrating' on their bench press, eat humble pie when they couldn't overhead squat an empty bar or even a piece of pvc pipe. The athleticism required to compete to even a moderate level is incredible.
