Crazy how big Gavs legs are.

Had the privilege to train with Gav a little over a year ago, glad to see him on the Pod!

He needs to get a lot faster in the moving events if he wants to challenge the best

This was a great chat. World class athlete coming across as a super sound guy. One of the many reasons I love this sport.

I just love this guy and his whole energy. The Bull will go places!

Didn't no gav was a soldier,big respect and thank you for your service

Hope Gav does it, such a great genuine bloke.

Such a great interview. So much respect for Gav.

That 52 mins flew by ..brilliant

Love Gav he's a credit to us Welsh 💪❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Brilliant, love Big Gav!

This is the manliest podcast ever, love the vibe boys !

Great interview guys, keep it up!

Met Gav in power athletics in Caerphilly, he told me he would be world's strongest Man, I chuckled a little, then he gave me a death stare, that alone convinced me that he's potentially gonna do it

great guy, legend in the making, keep the tash!

Go Gavin! Be strong and healthy!

these are so great to watch really funny

Cool series dam he's a big lad!

Radzi for 17 days involved with the World Snooker Championships (which was absolutely unreal and the best sport to watch hands down) and contrastingly involved and talking with the strongman scene. (The other best sport to watch hands down). There is not a better sports presenter, commentator, fan out there💪💪 radzi should be a lock for a captain in a question of sport one day, hes absolutely everywhere in every sport.

I can feel for big gav. I served as an US army infantry and being 6'6" also haha. Of course I had to lug around the m240 and my squad average height was 5'8"....felt like a dark joke my Sargents wanted to do haha

@alanaliyev456GT

You joke when you announce 5’8’’ of average ??? Its average in hogwarts kitchen or gringotts bank !!!! Not possible in Army. Average of 5’10’’ ok... but 5’8’’ is impossible in Army . I ,ive in France . Minimum height for hae right to serve in Army is 1m70 ( barefoot) mesured the morning if you have chance 1m70 is 5’7’’ lot of young men have 6 FT average of 5’8’’ is impossible except if US ARMY count true dwarfs (5’6’’ or less) in your ranks !!!! Here its impossible. You can have derogation for olympian game maedalists ( in 5 first place since 2004 ) but for work in office in civilian .....not uniform.

Little known fact: Gav is actually a host for The Moustache, which has migrated from face to face since the passing of its progenitor, Louis Cyr. Somewhere out there is Eugen Sandow's moustache, driving its host to greater feats of strength, so that it may one day challenge Louis Cyr's moustache for supremacy.

Gavs correct - Infantry is the only job that matters. I was in Afghanistan same time, I was plus sized Infantryman. Gav is twice my size. Can’t believe he was Infantry. Respect.

Great lad

Colin got BIG!!!! 💪💪💪💪

Ya can tell he is ex army just by the way he conducts himself,I’ve been watching him since he started strongman and now he has finally got himself in shape I think there is some good things to come as he is strong as a bill but he is probably the nicest lad in strongman.

That is easily the worlds strongest chair

Would be cool to see Gav start winning shows

Didnt know Radzi was a snooker-fan. Heard his voice during the intermission yesterday, and thought that voice sounds familiar. And Lo and Behold.

Can't wait to see where smarter training at a lighter bodyweight will take Gavin👊

Colin, you're starting to emulate the great Geoff Capes in his retired years with your waistline. You're still in your 40's mate, better get it in check now before you blow up to 400 pounds.

I wouldn't say it's impossible, but I would say it's highly improbable. There are a lot of athletes better than Gavin that struggle to achieve first place, and then you got the true top-tier ones, like Licis, Novikov, Kieliszkowski, T. Stoltman, etc. I see Brian Shaw winning his fifth before Gavin reaching top 5 at WSM or the Arnold.

This this the thing that always bothers me: granted we can agree Gav needs to improve his fitness to get the success he is capable of. And many people keep saying this and writing him off. But, given his army and rugby background, he has the knowledge and the past to show he can get conditioned and also knows how to do this. I think if he gets on it, he can do big things.

Gav is a huge guy but there was a vid when they all showed up at wsm acouple years ago and he was by Brian and you can tell he was like damn this guy is bigger than me and I weigh more lol

I worked with a guy similar, was even in the Bath reserve squad for abit, then broke his leg and got in World of Warcraft and didn't like getting tackled anymore lol

Did the math and he was 473 pounds, that's absolutely astounding!

my scare was when i drank almost 700mg of caffeine and felt like i was about to blow up. I try to stick to 300mg and below now but caffeine is dangerous. Especially now that everyone on social media double scoop 300mg pre workouts

His at biggest was 212 kg Only guy who is haiver is josh silvas And brian and thor at biggest was 210 kg Brian at 2017 Thor at 2011

@Kyle Thain Thor often weighted around 185-200kg in the couple years before retiring but for the deadlift he was 206kg. Brian sad he also peaked around 205-206kg in 2017. If you look at wsm 2017 you can see how massive Brian is.

With that mustache who would doubt him

hes the same size as colin in this frame and sitting about 2-3 meters further away from the camera haha

Colin return to Strongman ?? He looks 25 lbs heavier tban last year (or its sitting position ? )

Guys, first of all, I love the show, great guests, I'm waiting for every new episode..... but try not to speak over each other, put on headphones so you can hear it. Overall its great ❤️ but when everyone is speaking at once, it becomes annoying very fast.... Other than that, these podcasts are great!

And I'm honestly confused how novikov is fighting in a war but yet has time to leave and go compete??? Does anyone find that just weird??!!

Fair doos radsy held his own amongst these giants. Could of so easily just sat back and not take part. But he good presenter

Gav's a nice guy..love to see him lift trophy..but I just don't see him winning WSM?? too many better strongmen will be competing with him over nxt few years. ..

Best get a shift on then.

He needs a proper nutritionalist, I've heard him say he doesn't track calories and just eats whatever. Bigger isn't always better, if he can maybe slim down some more and get faster maybe he'll become one of the best, but not the way he's going now.

Unless he has improved dramatically, I just don't see it. He's just not well rounded enough. Too many legit contenders.

Doubtful

I love Gav but he will never be the world’s strongest man

Lmfao, NO U WONT, gavin is a average strongman at best, he doesnt have all the skills needed to win wsm
