Yuri Vlasov


Yuri Vlasov was a very successful international weightlifting competitor for the Soviet Union.
He entered politics near the end of the Soviet era and advocated democratic reforms.
The above photo is from 1967 when he was past his prime, but still a star.

  1. I enjoy the dichotomy of the bodies of weightlifters compared to those of bodybuilders. Working versus cosmetic.
