wow, i love watching the armenian lifters! (my coach is armenian)

So i wonder if the coaches are going to get martrosyan (bronze metal in the olympics/ jr world record holder in snatch and total) to move up to the 77s with the emergence of miroysan??

[Dave Almeida]

From what I read after the Beijing games Martirosyan will be moving up to the 77kg class.

dave, how did you hear this? was it in an article that you can post?

Also i talked to my coach about this today (he was the armenian national coach for the 1996 olympics) and he remembered mirosyan training as a 9 year old!  he also told me that he is the son of Oxan Miroysan! (1988 olympic Champion)

Thanks Barry - good videos.

I have tried to comment on your blog a couple of times in the past and I get stuck at the word verification - it never seems to accept my answer. Always says "your request could not be processed" - always. Perhaps be rid of this hoop until you have a problem with spam? I will do the same with mine.

I just got rid of that feature Shawn, you are not the first person to say that. I am glad you enjoyed the video. I should have better quality videos of the 77's and 85's over the next two days.
