National Weightlifting Champion Trains in Aceh Ahead of IWF World Championships
Mohamad Aniq Kasdan, the national weightlifting champion, is set to embark on a two-week training camp in Aceh, Indonesia, starting this Friday to prepare for the International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) World Championships in Bahrain next month.
Focus on Technique and Personal Best
During the training camp, Aniq’s primary focus will be on maintaining his current total lift while attempting to push beyond his personal best, targeting a 300-kilogramme (kg) lift. He believes that there isn’t much to refine in terms of technique, and his main goal is to execute perfect lifts and break his national record of 298kg.
"I’ll use the training camp in Aceh to the fullest to achieve my target of 300kg," he told Bernama. "Right now, it’s more about maintaining my lifts and pushing them higher."
Competition Expectations
Aniq anticipates facing familiar opponents from his appearance at the 2024 Paris Olympics. He hopes to achieve flawless lifts and break his national record, which he set at the 2024 Commonwealth Weightlifting Championships in Suva, Fiji, in September.
"My main goal is to execute perfect lifts and, if possible, break the national record. If I end up on the podium, that would be a bonus," he added.
