This was a fun back and forth to watch, and it solidified the fact that Lasha Talakhadze is one of the strongest weightlifters in the world. To see him hit that final set for three reps, after doing 15 reps with the other two sets, not only shows crazy strength, but unyielding cardio as well.

While this may have just been a friendly, fun day at the office, Lasha clearly still has a high competitive drive. It will be interesting to see him compete for real, sometime in the bear future.
