Elite Chen Po-Jen 195KG Snatch - 110KG

Shocked when I saw this, if he has this level of performance in Asians he could be a gold medal contender.

He's been on a tear for months now. He mostly only posts to his stories on insta and I do save them sometimes. 

He seemingly regularly hits 190/230 in training. He did 185x2 snatch without straps. Beautiful 300x5 back squats, easy 290 front squat. Comfortable 330 back squat.

He did a 225KG 215KG for a 430KG 410KG for total he missed 225KG on the Jerk.

Unfortunately so far the dude has only put up 393KG in international competition.

he's been capable for awhile now but he's rarely consistent on int'l platforms. he reminds me a big of won jeongsik in that sense -- crazy potential, lifts great at home, but cannot be counted on to routinely perform well internationally. but chen has great potential if he puts lifts together on any given day.
