Ursula Papandrea | A Corrupt Federation
Since the start of 2020 up until two weeks ago, Ursula Papandrea was the interim IWF President, the person at the very top of our sport. In this interview, Ursula spoke about the moment she found out that Nicu Vlad of Romania had called for a secret meeting to vote her out, the depths of corruption that she witnessed during her 9 months in charge, how ultimately Tamas Ajan, though indeed still guilty, may have been somewhat of a fall guy for the rest of the board who continue to pedal bribery and drugs, her resignation, and the remainder of the McLaren report that she never released to the board and/or us.Shop W|H USA - https://www.weightliftinghouse.com/shopusa/Shop W|H EU - https://www.weightliftinghouse.com/shopeurope/Preorder a WH barbellhttps://www.weightliftinghouse.com/shopeurope/product-category/weightlifting-bars/Grab a Barbell in the USAhttps://www.weightliftinghouse.com/shopusa/product-category/weightlifting-bars/Support us and receive programming, videos, and more podcasts -https://www.patreon.com/weightliftinghouseVIRUS Intl.

Pat Mendes | Beating the System
Within 20 months of Pat's introduction into the sport of Weightlifting, he snatched 200kg in training, more than any US weightlifter has ever hit.
