Hey there, weightlifting fans! 🏋️♀️ Big news from Phuket: China's Wang Zhouyu has just snagged three silver medals at the International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) World Cup! 🎉
Competing in the women's 81 kg category, Wang lifted an impressive 120 kg in the snatch and 147 kg in the clean and jerk, totaling a whopping 267 kg. Talk about strength goals! 💪
But that's not all the action. China's other superstar lifter, Liang Xiaomei, who holds the world records in clean and jerk and total weight for this category, showed true grit despite a recent waist injury. She ranked seventh this time around, but don't count her out! Liang still leads the pack in the qualifying standings for the Paris Olympics with her record 284 kg total lift. 🚀
It's inspiring to see these athletes pushing through challenges and aiming for the stars. Let's send them all our support as they continue their journey to Paris 2024! 🇫🇷✨
