I follow klokov on instagram and he's been posting about his 200 kg pause snatch goal. He just hit 180 or so which is unbelievable, near my deadlift max of 190 kg. I think about how crazy it is that elite level oly lifters can pause snatch my DL max, but then I thought more and I can pause snatch my girlfriend's DL max of 90 kgs and she's been lifting for about a year.

How can men be THAT much stronger? The ratio of elite level male lifters to average male lifters is the same as average female to average male? That seems crazy
