I love the way he smiles/laughs after a lift, he seems to love his sport :)

Goodness, amazing strength. No wraps, no belts, he's freaking awesome. Love the use of the squat jerk.

Well Lu mght take that record from him at the world champs next year. 379 at olympics.

China's Lu Xiaojun strains in the clear and jerk of the men's group A 77-kilogram category of the World Weightlifting Championships in Goyang, west of Seoul, South Korea, Tuesday, Nov. 24, 2009. Lu won the gold medal with the world new records scoring total of 378 kilograms.

Lu Xiaojun and Liu Chunhong are now the most dominant Olympic lifting athletes with the retirement of Hossein Rezazadeh.

never heard of him before goyang 2009 but he's just awesome!

ya i guess his first major international competition ...heard of him when he finished 2nd in chinese national games ..now i feel 77kg is the most competitive category ..many lifters capable of doing more than 165+200

The wr looked like a training lift lol still warming up

he got a bod any 170lb bodybuilder can respect. yet he's about 3x stronger than they are

PEDs=Performance Enhancing Drugs. 70s & 80s were rife with PED use hence the re-structuring of the weight classes. I don't really care whether PEDs are used or not. I just want to see amazing lifts! :)

True that, didn't do the maths. He would have to do a 178 and a 215 to achieve that roughly and that would be unbelievable at 77kg. Although you could say that Alexander Varbonov was possibly using PEDs but lets not get into that argument.

Lu looks like he's been on a horse for three weeks.
