Another Greek physician Galen, described strength training using haleteres, an ancient form of dumbbells. Another year old instrument was the Indian club, which was created in ancient Persia.

The first day of Senior Championships in France has largely clan smiled at Langres. As expected, Anaïs Michel was sacred in the morning, imitated by a serious and opportunistic Adeline Cristofoli. Former Lingon Benjamin Hennequin closed the ball with a bang, with a title in 94 kg. Victor without having to force too much in 53 kg, with a total of 149 kilograms, the resident team in France has continued its ideal preparation for the Championships in less than a month. Before a meeting wholly devoted to his cause, it has certainly not raised mountains (67 kg in the snatch, 82 kg in clean and jerk), but this was not the goal. Jean-Louis Gudin, the mentor of Langrois Weightlifting Club, confirmed this: We did not choose to head to win but big bars. The idea was to make final adjustments to the Euro. Stuck at his heels, the Alsatian Manon Lorentz (Obernai). The junior has made a strong impression in a category where the other competing Langrois Jessica Villetet, finished sixth with a total of 121 kg (54 kg in the snatch, 67 kg clean and jerk). A place to be quite promising, especially as 16 years ago, she was the youngest of the plateau. This was my first senior championships in France. I just ran out of juice and I would have loved to 70 kg in the clean. But I'm not disappointed. This is a good preparation for the Championships in France Cadet / Junior, late April, after it analyzed its competition. As if to embody the work of Lingones, training first, organization, too, the HCL has won a second tassel. Although most unexpected one. Adeline Cristofoli not leave because no favorite of 63 kg, facing the formidable Muslim Sunar. But greed is a bad thing and want to send too heavy, the Orléans eventually lose everything, missing its three bars of the snatch (91, then 95 and 97 kg!). The Langres, she had assured the shot moments before. So much so that with a final bar to 71 kg, it was pointing in pole position at the time to address the clean and jerk, front Evelyne Thomas (66 kg). One advantage she retained without trembling, although his attempt in the third bar, beating his personal best of 85 kg (90 kg bar) miscarried. Today, men wrap up the championships in France. Langres Bouly count on Kevin to complete his medals table. Never two without three. Adeline Cristofoli: Certainly that was unexpected! At best, with Jean-Louis Gudin (her coach), we left for second place. And then there are these three bars missed the favorite Muslim Sunar .... AC: I say that, knowing her, she goes back! And no, she decides to put on weight. When I see it lacks the second, at 95, then, I understand that for her, things really get complicated. The third bar? I looked at anything. I put my head under a T-shirt. I did not see it!. AC: I had a moment of relief quite difficult to manage, before the clean and jerk. It's never easy to get back into racing after that. But there was a competitor and he should not be overlooked that. With Jean-Louis, it was decided to provide a bar with 77 kg.I counted six kilos in advance with the body weight, but I did not do anything. When we saw that it ended on a bar 80, so we climbed to 85. I reached my personal best and I tried to make me happy .. AC: Yes. I spent that weight in training last week. But again in competition, especially in these conditions, it was too hard. When you know you won, we did book quite the same battle. I still beat my record in the snatch (71 kg against 70) and total (156 kg against 153). This is the first time I feel as good in the snatch. I was determined .. AC: I have already been crowned three times in juniors, but seniors, ever. This emotion is a combination of many things: the fact of change at home, have taken part in the organization, to see everyone in the audience ... That's the reward for everyone and also contrast to 2007, where I finished fourth. I did not commit the same errors ..
