Colin Burns Snatches 175kg, An American Record In Two Weight Classes
Colin Burns snatched 175kg/385lbs to set unofficial American records in his weight class and in the weight class above his.
Fresh off his deload leading into the Arnold Weightlifting Championships, American record holder and 2016 American Open champion Colin Burns just snatched 175kg/385lbs:

Burns, who competes in the 94kg division, already owns the American record for the snatch as a 94kg with his 173kg lift at the American Open last year. On top of that, this 175kg lift is 1kg above the 174kg American-record snatch in the men's 105kg division owned by Wes Kitts.
While American records cannot be officially set at the Arnold Weightlifting Championships, we do get to see some amazing performances. If Burns' recent accomplishment is any indication, it seems like we are in for some really impressive lifts.
