Meanwhile in Kazakhstan …
Here is a highlight from Ilya’s journey back to the top: 230kg Jerk from the Rack!
The other day, after his Front Squats (240kg x2 at 11:00 here) Ilya said:
As you can see, I squatted 240 for a double, felt pretty good. In three months I’m going to jerk that. [puts the finger on his lips] Just don’t tell anyone.*
By the way, you can always stay up to date on his progress by checking the Ilya Progress Tracker here.
Update: YouTube Video with the hole sequence of him working up to 230kg.
Update 23.05.2014: For Max Out Friday Ilya hits a 225kg Clean & Jerk and a 250kg Front Squat.
