She is just so amazing
absolutely insane how she has a 20-25% heavier total than the other top 2 and still had a lot of room in the c+j and 3-5 kg in the snatch. Didn't think anyone would have an easier gold medal than shi or lasha but here she is
Opens after everyone elses 3rd attempt, and then jumps up 12kg to take the world record c+j in two lifts. Crazy.
We are really missing Kashirina to challenge her, even if TK is getting old now. Wenwen is still 13 kg behind Kashirina's epic 2014 Worlds performance.
@Ricardo DeMatteo weird comment. What about her accomplishments makes you feel insecure?
@Ricardo DeMatteo Dude, she's definitely a girl. Yeah, she might be on a shit ton of gear (as are most top WLers), but there's no reason to doubt she's a girl. Get over yourself.
@@barath4545 I definitely think li wenwen could challenge those numbers, I mean she's 21 and her c+j looks effortless, problem is whether anyone will push her with Tatiana getting old
She is definitely the future of Chinese weightlifting. The era of Lu is finishing, now it's Li wenwen. She just won gold at Tokyo.
After Lasha and Shi , I think she's the most exciting athlete out there. She has it all: attitude, swagger, professionalism and is strong as f*ck. And she doesn't have to beat Kashirina at the Olympics to prove anything; she already beat Kashirina at the 2019 World Championships. Go watch the medal ceremony at the 2019 World Championships and watch how she treated an injured Titiana - that's what I mean by professionalism.
Can you please share the link to the video?
Increíble, pasó en el snatch aumentando 10kg, eso es otro nivel, mis respetos a Li Wenwen ✨👏🏻
Almost seems unfair to the other lifters. Must be even more demoralising than going against Lasha
It has to be. You're always told on any given day anyone can win but for Li and Lasha short of injury or a screw up they the heavy favorites for a reason.
Do you think Laurel Hubbard will beat her ?
@@Frank75288 hell no, zero chance. But I get your point
@@Frank75288 there's a chance he could beat Li. There's also a chance I can run a 4 minute mile. But both are unlikely.
@@Frank75288 li wenwen has a 50kg pr over Hubbard. It's absurd. Li wenwen lifts her opening clean and it's gameover
Those plates look sick. So clean
Мощно, ничего не скажешь! И запас виден в обоих движениях.
Wang in the 87s might be just as big a favorite to win as Li is. She powers weights no one else in her class can even clean, but unlike Shi rides them down just out of politeness probably.
4:40 gotta love how she tried to make it look somewhat hard when the lift was clearly routine
She is just super strong! So amazing
Roids?
9:00 lol... That swagger.
“Just turned 21 years of age” excuse me? So by the time she is finishing her career she’ll have lifted... I mean I guess all of the weight if this is any indication!
She's so cute . Hongfu Panda 🐼
Magnifique!
Literalmente compite sola, increíble
Damn, no sound; we don't get to hear her cuss out the bar before each lift! :P
Out of curiosity when supers hang it up do they drop bodyweight? A quick search had Li at almost 150 which isn't generally considered a healthy a weight.
some do, some don't. Matthias Steiner shed 40-50 kg after retiring, the same amount that he gained throughout his weightlifting career.
@@axreason makes sense. I was curious if it was the same as in other sports with heavier participants. If you look at NFL lineman which Li weighs close to most tend to drop a considerable about of weight for health reasons after they leave the sport.
@@bmstylee it seems like she intends to. there was another interview where the interviewer asked about how she feels about being a young woman but weighs so much. she said i am not ashamed of my weight because i put them to good use. plus, i will definitely lost a lot of it when im done lifting.
You definitely didn’t steal her lunch during grade school.. all jokes aside! Incredible weightlifter and very young can’t wait to see her beat all kinds of records as her career progresses!
look at how much she dwarfs her coaches
Absolute outlier. Amazing lifter
21 years old... this Marvelous Girls is... i dont know.... amazing, 148 kg snatch and 187kg in C&J, and have all time to could break the Wall on 200kg in C&J, maybe she need 5 -7 years,but im sure is only question on time for she!P.S. Crazy the Tons of Top Athletes that have the China,ok have 1,4 billions of citizen but also India have many citizen 1,3billions and not have the tons of top Athletes like China.
She looked like she had at least 3 more kilos on her snatch. The Clean and jerk was very impressive to make such a big jump between lifts. Then when she made lifts she acted like a girl celebrating with her coaches. Awesome video awesome athelete.
She calls her coach 'daddy' and the coach team treats her like a little girl. So adorable. Hongfu panda
Andrea Thompson wants a word 😂
awesome. Where is Deng Wei???
She didn't compete in the end
@@WeightliftingHouse hope she Will be in Tokio. Thaks seb
That woman is strong AF.
Lasha + Wen Wen = Goku.
or Majin Buu :p
how is it possible that i ordered a lasha500 tshirt on Mar 31, and still do not have either a tracking number or even a reply from WH support? (just in case, if someone from wh is reading this, my order no is 28959)
Hi Cat, so sorry to hear that. Did you email support@weightliftinghouse.com? If so, would you mind emailing again? Thank you, and apologies again!
@@WeightliftingHouse the last reply from your support was on Apr 22. I was said that "my parcel was lost" and new one would be shipped to me and I would receive a trackng no. Althoug I followed up on Apr 29 (because I did not recieve a tracking no) nobody answerd me since then.
Wow she is Enormous. I’m not talking body weight. She is just a big built women.
No she's heavy as well. I'm not a small guy and she has 15kg on me.
When you never stop bulking...
She is not fatter than the average American girl, not trying to racist.. She literally isn't.
The way she pushed that chinese coach, love it
Best female weightlifter
L. Hubbard is going to the Olympics?
Is that the man?
Likely, trans athletes have been allowed in the Olympics since like 2004, as long as their hormones and everything are in check, much like doping controls for other athletes. She would be the first trans athlete to compete at the olympics
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
She's only 21 and so far ahead of the rest?
Totally serious comment: I wonder what her diet is like. I think I saw in another video that the Chinese mens' team brings their own meat to restaurants and everything. I wonder if Li's diet is as strictly controlled.
they bring their own meat due to food safety concerns, so i'd say all chinese lifters regardless of weight class do this.
They all love noodle 哈啊哈 so the secret is wheat other than rice. Ppl from north China eat wheat product and south eat rice product. So basically the north is stronger.
If kashirina was allowed to compete this wouldn't be so easy for her... Can definitely see kashirina putting up 150/185 in the Olympics if she was allowed the chance
What happened to Kashirina?
@@cbn1362 I think the whole Russian team is banned due to doping. The whole country is banned in the olympic. Their weightlifting team is also banned from competing for many years, I don't remember
Kash got popped in 2020 sadly, but had she not, she could have run on the neutral team, like all Russians will in Tokyo, if they want in.
china is as bad as russia is for doping. they will get theirs eventually
@@youthere7327 i mean who doesnt do it at any sport at this level.
Dang Holley Mangold couldn’t even lift close to these numbers and she’s heavier in body weight by 50-90lbs. I know she isn’t competing from what I hear
Her size compared to her coaches is like Lasha's to his.
What does that have to do with anything!
@@auntie755 Big strong woman, I'm saying...
Hey Seb, would you consider Wenwen a bigger outlier than Lasha?
i wouldn't say so. li is still 13kg off from the heaviest total by a female. on the other hand, lasha has the heaviest total of all time.
No, purely because Li Wenwen hasn't hit the heaviest lifts ever, whereas Lasha has.
Lasha is on a hole nuthalevel
@@SachAlvarez how about this, would u consider Tatiana a bigger outlier than lasha at her prime?
In the Olympics her snatch is higher than over half the people's clean&jerk attempts. Is that normal?!
She's cute and humble
Damn those Chinese herbs and spices. Gotta take ones
Bruh she is so much bigger than other people there Whats her height and weight?
She should try wresting or female heavyweight MMA (if it exists in the future) after she retires from lifting
kongfu panda🤩
My question is? How much does this woman weigh? She looks enormous around all her coaches it's insane. Good for her BTW
Google says she weighs 148kg and is 178cm tall
@@T1JumpTIX My gosh
@@T1JumpTIX Only 178? Are the coaches tiny?
@@chrism45 that is really tall for a woman. But really, its equivalent for a man is 1.90 m.
@@chrism45 Her coaches are not even half her size: Zhang Guozheng (former 69kg) and Wu Meijin (former 56kg).
She is known in China as "the brutey, but cutey"
Kashirina 155, 193.
wenwen is still a junior bro, still 7 years old to enter senior athlete. if every year he can gain 1-2 kilos, it is not impossible that he will surpass the Russian record
Kashirina was much stronger than her at 50kg less than her
*T H I C C*
Seb, serious question: you say it’s “a new era of testing” but how much of this new era reaches into Chinese weightlifting? Or put more bluntly: aren’t they free to use whatever they want, except before a competition?
They can pick genetic freaks like Yao Ming, Li WenWen. They found a girl who probably has Gigantism and using her for basketball
@@TheZachary86 I mean it's probably easier to find genetic freak when ur population is 1.3 billioj covering tens of ethnicities, people living under different climates and environment etc
孟！非！
Here for the BBW's 🤘
why you gotta say that 😂😂. That’s reality tho
Lmao
@@toastyeggfilms Li WenWen for ESPN body issue 🤙
"- So what weight are you currently in ? - Ye im just +87 kg :) - mhmmmm" NO HATE but i believe there should be more weight classes not only in women weightlifting but also in man. like 2 more classes would be just fine i believe to make it more balanced :) Love thoose lifts, such a nice and pure technique
There's not enough athletes to put in those categories though
After they destroyed Kashirina's career,the road is wide open.Never again in history a career of a weightlifter was destroyed due to political reasons.She was never caught doping,while Lasha has been once ,but now the Georgians are in political favor by the USA and will never get caught because they have to finish in front of the Russians.Politics are using sports as a weapon these days.The Russian team got punished the same era that political and economic sanctions were put against Russia by USA and their western allies back in 2014.Shameful tactics that have no place in sports.
She was in fact popped in 2006
what the fuck and only 21 years old
How can a teenager be this strong? I'm very skeptical.
21 years old is not a teenager.
I feel very disrespectful for asking this. I do want to be informed and am willing to listen to what anyone has to say. How come the female weightlifters here are much larger than the male ones? Yet the weight they are lifting is less? Apologies again.
Have you seen Lasha? Lol he is huge. And obviously guys are going to lift more than the girls, biology bruh, do you even school?
Both the men and the women have weight classes. What you're seeing here is the open weight class, these athletes can be as heavy as they want. Because more body mass often means more strength, superheavyweights are often super heavy. Men also have a superheavyweight class and they are bigger than these women. As to why men lift more, this is due to difference in hormone levels, muscle mass, bone density and a number of other physiological differences between men and women. And depending on who you ask psychological and social differences too.
I'm no expert at all, but basically women have a much harder time gaining muscle (some along the lines of half the amount of men) so in order for them to be as strong as possible they gotta accept much more fat than the comparable men in the similar categories. Also this is the heaviest category so they will be as heavy as they need to be in order to lift the most weight, the same holds true for male super heavyweights where you have guys like Lasha at 170kg :D
In simple terms, women tend to have a higher fat body composition. Also you can look at muscle gain curve to fat gain curve in Oly lifting (assuming not to much test) and men put on less fat per kg of extra muscle mass :) also they store more of that day as white fat ( the jiggly stuff on the outside ). Where is Men tend to have a high proportion of hard fats on the inside of their mid area. His is why men have harder day bellies
Your question doesn't come off as disrespectful at all. Typically, males produce more testosterone as their main sex steroid hormone compared to most females who produce estrogen. *Testosterone gets converted to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by an enzyme (5-alpha-reductase), and you can think of DHT as like a super testosterone that aids in male sexual development in puberty. Both have been implicated in increasing and maintaining muscle mass.* Females who are 46XX and therefore lack Y (which carries a testes determining factor) go on to develop ovaries and produce more estrogen compared to testosterone. This is tangential info about estrogen and you can continue to read if you're interested. I mostly typed this out as review for myself lol: Excess androgen production in females is a common etiology of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), which is why women w/ PCOS may have more facial hair growth and acne, and also why they're at risk for developing a metabolic syndrome. Fat cells also produce a small amount of estrogen in peripheral tissue outside of the ovaries since they have the enzyme that converts testosterone to estrogen (aromatase), and increased fat tissue can lead to excess estrogen production. Estrogen helps distribute fat in "feminizing" areas like the breasts, buttocks, thighs to help prepare the body for possible pregnancy and lactation and this fat distribution or pear-shape is associated w/ a decreased risk for metabolic disease. As females go through menopause and estrogen decreases, the fat becomes more central or apple-shaped and is associated w/ an increased risk.
I need her doctors/steroids
something makes me think most of the super-heavyweights smell horrible
Lasha smells like gold baby
They smell like victory.
Love me some land whales
Careful. Your comment can be considered discriminatory towards sea whales by some.
@@fattyacid1901 your name is fatphobic so.
@UChihoGa6Khl7Kj5oZS_XLUA Fatty Acids are no less important than Amino Acids and Glucose in a balanced metabolism. But Land Whales is just a slur of Hippopotamus. Repent!
@@fattyacid1901 they have been recently renamed to 'large acids' Get your facts checked,bigot.
@@fattyacid1901 but what about sea cows?
she ????? looks like a man to me
maybe get your eyesight fixed then
20/20 oops a bit of gear that cant be traced yet just like in USSR ...Germany most of da strongest look like men
watch in a few years they will catch all the Chinese lifters on gear just watch they come out of nowhere and crazy strong wat by luck and hard training my ass all lifters at that level train hard lance Armstrong was natty too haha
@@houseofsgp no they don't "come out of nowhere" crazy strong... There's nothing more suspicious about Chinese lifters' year over year progress than any top lifter from anywhere else (they're all doping). Also, what current Chinese woman lifter looks as remotely androgenic as East Germans and women like Flo Jo did?
@@houseofsgp by that logic ledecky lochte and Phelps are on gear as well, oh I forgot fucking Gatlin who pbs as a sprinter at the age 34 LOL
