Olympic Champion Sohrab Moradi Is Insanely Strong

Sohrab Moradi is the Olympic Champion in the men's 94kg division and if you aren't aware of his Instagram, you need to enlighten yourself ASAP. Moradi is posting some earth shattering lifts. This post from a couple years ago recently resurfaced -- demonstrating Moradi's ability to kill weights. Here he is snatching 200kg/440lb and clean and jerking 240kg/529lb in 2015.



To put that in perspective, Moradi won gold at the 2016 Olympics with a 182kg/401lb snatch and a 221kg/487lb clean & jerk and the world records are a 188kg/414lb snatch and a 232kg/511lb clean & jerk! On top of that, a few days ago, Moradi made 315kg/693lb looks ridiculously easy in this video of him squatting.
