Yoke is way harder then I expected. Seeing Michelle run with over 1000 lbs on his back was mind blowing.

@@bartondean4260 Huge respect for Brian (obviously) but his workout videos are more of a showcase i feel like, he's showing what he does but not really talking actual numbers and results it provided for him. He's always like "that's what works for me" and fair enough it makes sense but people are interested in his hindsight on strongman way more than in a neatly packaged video with him hitting 6 different machines that supposedly "carry over to strongman"

You guys are the best duo on the Gym KZread game with Eddie Hall and Brian Shaw. Keep going together, it's crazy nice!
I love this collaboration. More coach Greg and Mitch team ups!
You guys are like two goldmines on video dropping nuggets along the way! Looks like you have a lot of fun training together. You make us all smarter while doing it. Love it!
You'll never get rid of him now XD It'll be Greg and "Michael Cooper" forever. I guarantee he's already got a picture of you and him with a heart around it in a notebook somewhere XD *Will Tennyson cries somewhere in the distance
Seeing someone this strong is so cool, man. It’s insanely inspirational.
I see some.... questionable videos/advice from Greg, and am not necessarily a fan of his, but I absolutely have to give him the respect he deserves for trying this (admittedly weird af) movement publicly on youtube. EVERYONE looks like an idiot when they first try yoke, and it's humbling. He picked it up quickly, and had a great attitude even when he was struggling. Love to see it, and respect to him.
I really like this collab. Great stuff... keep it going.
These collabs with Coach Craig are awesome!
This combo guys is a keeper. Fun great input and content.
Thanks for the videos Brother! I greatly appreciate your insight and sharing of techniques, especially when you previously broke down that you don't have to do 10k calories a day and so forth! My weight has always maintained right around 230-240, maybe I could push the envelope another 20 or 30 pounds, but I def won't be killing myself trying to overeat when much is still to be gained strength wise at my present weight.
Hey, I’m from Brian shaws channel. I just want to say keep up the amazing content! Awesome to see it.
Who would of thought, they have perfect chemistry - love this!
Awesome to see coach in action. I was only sad not to see a go2max plug😢
The team-up we didn't know we needed
this is a great collab and really makes you appreciate how hard yokes are. I assumed it wasn't as hard just from knowing what walking out a heavy squat feels like, but seeing Greg and knowing how strong he is puts into perspective how hard the WSM level weights rly are.

unless there is an inside joke, it's Mitchell without an e on the end. or if you ask Doucette, Michael Cooper
Its so interesting watching greg here. He seems so keen to learn, humble and wholesome.
I’m thinking the yoke was harder for them because of the crossbar being upside down. I ran my old yoke couple times like that. And it allows the uprights to bounce in and out( left and right) since the part of the cross bar that usually sleeves the upright are not stabilizing them down towards the bottom where the weight is , either way freakish yoke carry!
Really a big fan Mitch Amazon information 💪🏻
Greg should be a guest commentator at a strongman competition
I rearly like watchin you do stuff like this, your a good student you lishen an learn an try to ask the right questions its a great contrast from you seeming to know everythin it helps trust your advice since i now know u can take advice 🤣🤣
You can see how much that yoke is wobbling as he does it, crazy he still got a 7.9
Mitchell is such a wholesome guy, his knowledge and intelligence is another level, favourite strongman by a mile
Never knew it tbf Greg Doucette’s actually strong af too. Like I get bodybuilders aren’t gonna be weak but man’s got records.

I love their chemistry.
That’s still very impressive. People should try to do high partial squats with even 650-750 pounds in a power rack. Try lifting it off the safety pins and if you can try supporting that weight for 7- 10 seconds. That will give you a idea how strong M. Hopper is. He made it look easy.
jaja I never expectedt this crossover, you two together are fire content end of story.
Greg looking at the gym in the squat rack cracked me up
Hey Mitch, notice you are using a underbelt and leverbelt nowadays in most videos. Is that something you are trying out or have you made the switch from softbelt and velcro?
Greg being Greg, completely making "3, 2, 1, Go" his own by speeding up the tempo and replacing "Go" with "Start". I'd have stopped him. "Can't you be normal and unawkward for once, you goofball? Do it again, properly."
First time I’ve seen Mitch struggle with a yoke. They hung and swung like a pendulum.

This was probably after the sumo dls.
I woul like to ask a general question to the community: Any thoughts why the recent WSM are so "small"? Mitch is insanely strong but relatively light. There was the time of Shawn, Hall, Björnson, Big Z... with the winners always having a bw of near 200kg. Since 2019 a lot of "light" athlets are winning or in the top 3. Stoltmans are still heavy but not close to 200. What changed? More speed related events in the competition?

Interesting seeing hoop start with such a wide stance, obviously i am not a pro strong man but instinctually I would think to start with a narrower stance I would imagine its less side to side movement when you start walking.

Mateusz does a narrow stance where he walks straight through his pick-up. Funny enough, probably the two most elite yoke runners right now, Hooper and Evan Singleton, both have wide pick-ups and narrow running.

Hey what's up Michael Cooper!
It's nice hearing Greg's real voice and not his Gilbert Gottfried podcast voice.
When you say the yokes you use in comp are substantially easier, do you mean they are just a higher quality rig or what?
Very very interesting😊
When I look at Greg near Mitchell it looks like in typical superhero movie there is main super hero and he has a less stronger partner sidekick who helps him. Like Batman and Robin. Mitchell is Batman. Damn, Mitch, they should cast you in Hollywood. I want you to see in the movie.
I didn't know they went that low
We have this at my gym, but it is too wide for me. I am taller than Greg, but on an inch or too. Gym is open 24/7, so I may still give a go on late night with no one around! Rather not look a fool.
watching greg do the first yolk HAHAHAHAHHA
You really can tell Coach greg used to be a PE teacher
You can tell Greg respects the hell out of Mitch and isn't O'Hearn-splaining to the world's strongest man. Hopefully we'll see Greg in a lightweight strongman masters division at some point :)
What I'm learning is from watching Mitchell is, it does matter how strong you are (obviously), but it matters more the technique. Knowing as much as Mitchell does with all the sports science stuff seems to help as much if not more than just doing reps of as heavy as you can.
This is oddly my favorite friendship that’s happening on the tube de you.
Greg you look in great shape. More natural than Mike O'Hearn.
Most comfortable sneakers for wide feet?
❤
I guess you have to go by Michelle Cooper from now on
Yoke bar lower than last time.
Next this guy will win WSM world's smartest man lol
⭕️💪🏻
I dont think theres anyone in the world who can do the yoke as fast and heavy as hooper
Can you guys bet on a feat of strength where Greg has to grow a moustache if he loses?
