Weightlifting is decided in the sub-steps jerk and shock.
Jerk means that you pull the bar from the ground to straight arms above the head in one go, while shock is performed in two steps - where you first turn the barbell from the ground to the shoulders and then push the bar up to straight arms above the head.
Gherman was back on the international competition stage during the European Championships in Albania after a hiatus after coming into conflict with the federation after the European Championships in Moscow 2020.
"Had wanted to carry my best weights"
And now she, who competes in the 64-kilo class, finally got a bronze with her after snatching at most 96 kilos.
In the shock, the maximum weight was 111 kilos, which was enough for a seventh place in the moment.
In total, she therefore became four.
- Of course it is positive and that I am happy.
European Championship bronze is fun for Sweden and me.
But I had wanted to bring my best weights and gold.
I would have taken higher weights in the shock, says Daniela Gherman to the union's website.
With his personal best of 103 kilos in jerks and 122 kilos in shock, Gherman holds the Swedish record in his weight class.
