I have not watched much of the Olympics, but I happened to catch Olivia Reeves gold medal winning performance in the women's 71 Kg weight class. It was impressive. Did you see it?

Check out Olivia Reeves' squat workouts on YouTube. Impressive for sure.

I thought it was interesting that it's been decades since Americans won a medal in weightlifting and both Olivia Reeves, gold and Hampton Morris, bronze (world record holder in C&J) are under 22 yrs old and started in Crossfit as kids.
