It goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway, the Olympic class shake up certainly makes for interesting match ups.

Update: Chen Lijun hopes to get down to 61kg by temporarily removing his liver and intestines.

You can get a solid 250g by dropping the kidneys. Just go on dialysis for the rest of your life and don't tell a nephrologist.

Who needs kidneys to snatch 150kg?

200iq strat, remove kidneys and go on dialysis to avoid urinary drug testing

The 102 class better deliver here... otherwise weighing in as an overweight 89 to avoid Nasar BUL for Paris 2024 will be a legitimate strategy. Where are the 410 totals expected of this class?

The 102kg category must be the most disappointing category we've seen out of the new Olympic categories. So much potential, yet everyone seemed to get fatter and lift the same weight (or less)

Right! One would think it would be the most attended male class, what with average heights and boys wanting to be big and bulky. But instead we had these tumbleweeds so far. Hopefully Paredes BRN does 190+220 to start the Paris race for real.
