Mobility Monday Episode 30: Ilya Ilyin

Today we feature Ilya Ilyin, two time Olympic gold medalist in weightlifting. Kazakhstan's pride and joy, Ilya is able to balance the requirements for mobility and power in his expression of the barbell. Olympic weightlifting is all about speed and strength, a testament to the thousands of hours practicing the same two lifts. Enjoy the slow motion capture of 242kg being lifted from the ground and then violently thrown overhead.
