How do people like Clarence (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSyByWwlEi4BWzjCdJCQEDA) manage to become so incredibly proficient at Oly lifting and powerlifting, while still keeping mobility at insane levels?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00SWOUnAgL0 here's an almost double bodyweight snatch
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvrzgKsRnJ0 a triple bodyweight pause squat
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7ZZSpSSm68 and a 3+ times bodyweight deadlift
He's got an almost double bodweight bench, how the fuck is he so good at absolutely every lift?
Idk, maybe he stretches
Practice

mobility is the absolute prequisite for oly lifting.
Genetic freak + inhuman levels of chemicals being injected via ass cheeks
Drugs
Genetics
Good programming
Patience, time and effort

Yeah but you don't see Klokov or any Oly lifter doing tricking, where Clarence does
>>36615126
What's your fucking point with this thread anyways??
I think the better question is why does he look about the same size as me in terms of LBM/bodyfat when he blows my lifts out the water????????
>inb4 ur just delusion bro he is bigger than u!!!!!XD
Seriously though...why? Yeah I know over-loading is what makes you bigger, it's what works for me, but my muscles seem to grow and grow regardless of how much weaker I am compared to this guy, so long as I add a few KG here or there to a lift I keep growing. Nowhere near 2x bw bench or a 3x bw squat or deadlift and yet our muscularity is about the same.
It's almost as if there's something else going on here...perhaps genetics?
I've seen dudes at my gym benching 3 plates for reps, who have droopy DYEL manboobs, and yet I bench 2 plates for reps and have a muscular and aesthetic chest.

So? Klokov didn't do gymnastics before lifting, as far as I'm aware he was into lifting since he was like 9.
Clarence does gymnastics

Too much hypertrophy, not enough CNS adaption.
You also write like a child.

Holy fuck.
When you reach that level of physical prowess, doesn't your body undergo some changes? I mean, that guy must be constantly sore with fucked up hormonal levels.

Lel. I just spend 40 hours in the last week on a 3000 word essay for a fucking sociology class and I am a mature-aged student.
I am really fucking slow at putting together academic like descriptions. If I was to write like an "adult" I'd end up spending 15 minutes per post.
Part of its definitely genetics
put hes trains seven days a week so I would say hes does a fair bit of mobility work or maybe he doesnt even need to at this point who knows
Hes also definitely on roids as of 6 months or so ago
look at his vids in that time and how much is lifts have gone up and hes bulked up
>>36615167
Whatever you say, child.
>>36615126
If you look at videos of klokov stretching you will see that he is by no means rigid.
guinness and magic

So you are like 5'11 and 103kg with abs?

It's part of the forensic science degree m8, don't ask me why it's there, their making me do it for the credits.

Granted, this was before he started training on a polish strict training program which eventually led him to exploding knees, but still, he reached a 6 plate squat at 87kg bodyweight by just doing what he felt like doing, it's ridiculous.

This just makes me mad as shit.
