World's Strongest Man 20:07 - Dec 29 with 2346 viewsmax936

Any followers of the contest on here, Lad and myself enjoy it, size and strength on these guys is immense.

I don't think they should be allowed to wear straps to do Dead Lifts etc though, even though they can all use them, grip is a big part of strong man so I think the wearing of the straps should be banned.

I come in at about 80 kg's at the moment. I'm planning on increasing my running through 2023, I'm picking up too many injuries throwing weights around now.

I think I've clocked about 22 mins. I'm a bit off that pace nowadays.


Injuries well That’s CrossFit for you

My PB for 5k is low 20s. About a stone heavier now but sub 20 is rapid


Take me a day and a half with my knees and hip

I use the Ifit app for my weight training. Loads of brilliant trainers that take you through weight courses. Best one is a guy called John peel (not that one) who does a 12 week course.

Take a look at Athlean-X on youtube, I found him to be very good, I used his version of the best 8 Dumbbell exercises to make up a dumbbell circuit yrs ago, it was a decent workout, 20 min warm up on exercise bike 3,4, or 5 sets of the DB circuit then a 30 minute blow out on exercise bike.
Need to create another exercise regime to help get this weight off in new yr, fed up with my size.

Anyone who served, to me, is the ultimate hero. If you are aware at an away game in the NW let me know and I’d be honoured to buy you a beer

He looks huge on the tele fair play, my lads mate is 6'9" and quite chunky and he fills the room when he stands up, so I can't imagine how much room these guys would take up.

Do you think Gav Bilton would have a better chance in Strongman if he lost half his belly, as it must hinder him ?

In fairness he has dropped a bit of weight , unfortunately for Gav he has come at a time when there is such a depth of top competitors , he has won a couple of titles and has done decent on the international stage , he is quite new to this sport compared to most mind, so he has in a short amount of time done tremendously well but the guys at the top I think will be out of reach for him

He's in todays heat, CH5 7pm hope he does well, he has done well domestically, but I think you're right about him being able to compete against the Worlds best, but fair play to him.

Have you seen Gary Taylor recently he is a lot smaller compared to his strongman days. Search "Talking Strongman with Gary Taylor" on YouTube and you would be surprised!

I tried to post the link YouTube link but for some reason it will not load up on here.


Just watched Talking Strongman with Gary Taylor, hell of a difference in him, looks very well though.

His cardiovascular system does not have to work so hard now 24/7 with less muscle weight to pump to, because extra muscle would still have required blood supply unlike body fat which does not require that.

He has made a wise choice not to carry all that bulk beyond his competition days imo.

Argus!

I'd love to see more of that, the way he bent that frying pan back pan was crazy, Considering his size, I was thinking earlier was he something to do with Uri Geller, and went a step further and done the frying pans instead.



Look up Thomas Topham 18 th century British strongman from London - He rolled up a pewter plate . He also did many other groundbreaking strength feats ,
