Honestly those shrugs are really impressive. WSM should have a shrug off between Grizzly and Haviland.

45 years ago, in kavala, a small greek city, was many boys that was strong. dimitris makridis had a gym, small one that all was paying to buy weights. he was 70-75 kilos but he bench 230 kilosx3-5 reps squat 280 kilos3-5 reps and dead lift 330 kilos. he motivate many in times that was no money no machines no drugs. kyriakos was going to the gym of one of the best students of dimitris. many of his students even are near 70 and not train regularly can still bench 170-180 kilos. i am 70, i was visiting the gym 3 times in a month did not train hard. now i start some training and old memories work. i bench 20 sets x 15 reps 90 kilos every 2 day and i realize how good was the program we use old times

Lasha is the all time record holder open class weightlifter. It's a standard exercise for weightlifters. Kyriakos is putting up similar numbers in his 50s.

Don’t make the bloat lord angry

That's how you know Hooper is a true competitor, he's like a swordsman winning the biggest competition then requesting that Miyamoto Musashi and Sasaki Kojiro come to the next one so he can actually have a challenge.

i want to see Devon Larratt vs Kyriakos Grizzly. That would break the Internet.

I think part of the reason for his truncated ROM could be injuries. At that body weight, years of lifting and the weights attempted, I guess he has had a fair share of debilitating injuries - lower back, ankles, shoulders, knees etc.

Don't know if he could win, but I plan to be at Myrtle Beach this year and would love to watch him try.

I hear you and agree....BUT... I want to see you try to do 300kg behind the back wrist curls. Even with all that bouncing and crap I know know. But go ahead and try. Just try it. I bet you can't even lift it into position in the first place. The guy is freaking crazy strong.

I like the format of these videos, and how you are doing deeper dives into some of these viral sensations. As for inviting grizzly to worlds strongest man. What if they had an exhibition lift for Max Zurcher lift? Almost like how they used to do back lifts for very short ranges of motion.

The muscle snatch is really good! Even Lasha Talakhadze doesn't usually go too much above this waight when practicing....

He does pullups. If that is the only thing he does, then that already is incredibly impressive to me. His short range extreme weight stuff is strong, impressive, but it's just plain weird.
