Gotta say before I met Brian I was expecting to meet a giant only to realize in shock I had been looking right down at him! Naturally I’m not one to make fun of or look down on people who weren’t dealt the best physical hand in life, so I treated him with utmost respect and was not disappointed to do so. We traded heartfelt conversations and lifted some weight a few times, and me being a pretty strong guy myself, I had him beat in every physical aspect possible. Of course, there was one thing Brian had me beat in, and that was with his heart, he made my entire month high-spirited with his well-mannered nature has taught me much. We could all learn a thing or two from Brian Shaw.

I like how Brian compares himself to strongman from the past and not just the current ones. And with his intensive knowledge of strongman history, I'm sure he means it when he says it's hard to debate whether he has the strongest grip

This was super entertaining. Love it!

Moments like this are why I love weight training, encouraging your partner to push themselves is so rewarding, just you vs the weights

Physical excellence, of all strongmen, love Shaw the most - his entire setup changes in the gym, just enthusiastic, driven and competitive. Juji's got a great physique... outstanding motivation to start working harder with your own body!

Love this video with you both in it. Been too long. Two of my favs together again. Also I had to buy the egg plant, that is just too cool. I have like every attachment and grip you can think of in my home gym and now I'll have that one too.

Great video. Thanks!

great video thanks Brian 👍

I feel like with Brian cheering you on anything if possible!

Lol. Brian and Juji being surprised that 6x weight/training belts not only sell, but are *requested* is kind of adorable. The 'power gut' has been a staple of strongman since its inception. I'm not surprised in the least that the 6xs sell.

Best video in a while! Thank so much guys!

The support these guys show each other is actually so wholesome.

two of my favorite athletes in one video. really enjoyed this.

Exactly. The bigger your hand is the more effective (not necessarily stronger) your grip is. In Brian case it's the combination of two.

I know Brian gets tired of everybody comparing themselves to him. Like I’m sure he knows he’s much larger than a lot of people, it must be really tiring hearing it all the time especially when he never tries to bring others down. It was just weird seeing JuJu cringe and joke everytime Brian lifted more weight than him like dude we know he’s stronger than all of us😂. Just enjoy the workout and be wholesome
