Kazakhstan-Olympic Gold

A week ago I asked what this nations sporting strengths were? After sharing a joke with some great and very humorous Kazaks in London who were attending the Olympics. My answer lay in my question all along... Strength! Weightlifters, wow. The ninth largest country in the world with not too many people, so they have to lift a lot of stuff around a huge expanse of land, that's simple training techniques people! Ok there is a cyclist helping them in there, but I'm still fascinated with this land.
