Strongman Thread - CHADeusz Kieleszkowski edition:

>shows up every year to destroy and humiliate the strongest men in the world at one single event while being half their size
>doesn't even care about winning the competition, just wants the psychological edge and small yet significant victory of Shaw and Bjornsson watching him do something they're simply incapable of

huh.
does no one follow strongman here?
it's pretty entertaining, it's actually the one strength sport I think could/should become huge. It probably never will though, because of "toxic masculinity" and whatnot.

Yeah, but we could change that. Can you picture Atlas stones being replaced with fatties? All the lulz.

"STRONGMAN! Watch them lift women onto stands!"

I guess in burger land lifting women would, in fact, be far more impressive than lifting 200kg stones.

Seriously though, at any other time in history strongman would have been the most followed sport, these guys would have been treated like heroes. Tests of strength have always been around, it's part of western culture, we're fascinated by it, strength is the most impressive and important physical attribute.

Instead half the world's population is fascinated with guys kicking balls between two posts.

what a shit, numale world

>watching a fat ass lift stones and lift things
yea real badass and exciting

He is improving year after year too, without ballooning up into an enormous fatass like Hall did.

What event does he destroy them at?

Can he live up to his potential and become the next Mariusz Pudzianwski tho ? Until then Pudzian will always be the GOAT , fatcels cant compete with this supreme specimen

Moving events generally. But I think his strategy is just to kill one event and not worry so much about the rest. Might be because he knows he'll bomb at deadlift (although I hear he got that taken care of, he had some kind of assymetry or something)

This year he destroyed natural stone to shoulder, last year at WSM he took the plane pull by a large margin while being the lightest guy, which is pretty impressive. I really like MK. more so than Martins "Gay for Pay" Licis.

At the arnold classic going on right now he put shaw and mountain to shame in the stone lift. No one was even close to him.

That was pretty impressive.
>tfw watching comfy rogue stream on youtube right now
>tfw it's timber carry
>tfw rooting for MK and since it's a moving even he might be able to take it
he's so based lads.
also the livestreams made the Arnold the GOAT strongman competition.

also shaw actually had access to the stones.
and that cunt hafthor kept going on about "I'm icelandic viking, we lift de natural shtonesh for centuries" lmao

does anyone know why licis isn't there?

Honestly though, hafthor is gonna win right?
I'd like shivlyakov or mateusz to win but I don't think they can. Thor will probably take overhead and deadlift.

did Eddy Hall really retire after he won the worlds strongest man ? or why is he not competing at teh Arnolds ?

he's semi retired. I think he's only doing smaller competitions, Europe's, Britain's, etc.Idk but he definitely was at Europe's though.

If halfthor shits the bed on the frame and one of them manage to beat pritchet/get 2nd or 3rd it could happen

Since when is Martins g4p?

there are some weird vids of him on youtube called "huge muscle teen bodybuilder" or something. basically it's just him shirtless getting worshipped by and lifting manlet twinks. so not gay porn per se but arguably worse.

a bit of a bitch move if you ask me, snatching the WSM title when Brian cant compete and then doesnt even come back the next year.

>Veeky Forumsizens in the livechat
also too bad for Mateusz, that's a shame, he was really going fast.

well that's it for MK and the shiv, thor is gonna win. can't stand that cunt.

Yeah if he hadn't pitched forward like that he would have a chance of flat out winning the arnold

post strim

>when Brian can't compete
Brian got smoked and he knows it.

literally youtube's rogue channel
yeah, and he knows it. that face when he left. the face of a broken man.

well it's still more interesting than literally any other sport out there. ofc I'd rather do than watch but I don't have the g e n e t i c s

You can compete at amateur level shit for fun like powerlifting

Kieleszkowski might gonna be the next big name in strongman. Its absolutely amazing how he won the plane pull in 2017. Plane pull usually favors heavier guys but he smoked everyone.
I have to admit that strongman as a sport is really exciting right now, huge number of amazing athletes competing and you can never know for sure when something surprising is gonna happen.
We also have to look out for Martins Licis, he is also young and lighter but still has brutal static strength (deadlift and squat) and great flexibility. He gay tho.
The big old names still are doin great imo.
All in all this is the toughest competition ever in strongman.
Btw who let Mark Henry speak at the shows, he sounds like an absolute retard.

Both of the commentators are fucking awful

I liked Kaz doin the commentating in the past but he had problems too for sure.

How do strongmen not constantly suffer horrific injuries?

They pretty much do.
Savickaz just had some major shoulder injury not long ago.
Martins Licis lost function in one of his arm for like months.
Brian Shaw had multiple hamstrings injuries.
Eddie Hall torn several ligaments in his fingers.

lmao, all that blood

That was one explosive nosebleed.

>he sounds like an absolute retard.
That's because he is.

Looks like he ripped his hands up really bad, the guy is a fucking animal, if Pudz didn't exist he'd be the proto-slav

Seems like bad weight selection on Thor's part, no? Should've been more aggressive, now he's coming in 2nd for sure.

unless shaw tears another hamstring

Not being pussies

They constantly suffer horrific injuries.
Sometimes they get better, sometimes they don't.

>Mark is sweating more than the competitors

Eh he did what he wanted to and is moving on. He won, and now is trying to stay healthier and promote longetivity

They definitely do, but the WSM and the Arnold are their two biggest events. These two mean everything for them. They're capable of sucking it up for the rest of the day

>mfw we still have one more event
can he make it brehs?

watching dimitar is always so painful.
he always looks like he's about to die. plus he never does well at anything. I mean the guy is a 1000lbs+ puller and overhead beast (circus press world records, 500lbs+ push press club) but he always loses everything.
being a manlet is tough.

you just explained why WSM will never be popular. It's hard to relate to those 400lbs monsters.

Meanwhile soccer has people with all weights and heights and body types. Normies relate to that.

He is the evolution of mariusz. He has the moving events/athleticism AND he's also strong enough to compete in heavier shows like the arnolds.
Mariusz was never *that* strong. He finished 8th or something at the arnolds. His strength was never on par with guys like big Z or the current competitors. He was still stronger than 99.99% of serious lifters though, but he was more of an endurance/speed type of guy (relative to the average strongman competitor)

Who cares about normies

he even kinda looks like mariusz at times lmao

I actually like Mark Henry. Not very professional but he's pretty likeable. I don't get why everyone hates him so much. Also you just have to respect the guy, he's a strength freak in his own right. I mean in his prime he probably could've held his own against the likes of Shaw and Big Z. Same thing with Kaz.

Let's face it, commentators are pretty useless anyway.

Hafthor is an embarrassment. He had one real chance to get the trophy, but went retard and refused to use a squat suit when everyone else does. Too bad, hell never get it now, and its looking like the little Polish guy will take it within a year.

someone should make a "Curb you natural stone" vid t b h.
but let's be honest, thor will have a few years before Licis and Kieliszkowski start beating his ass. No big Z, Shaw'll get weaker, Hall doesn't compete anymore. He'll have the most static strength by far.

I don't like him though, after he tried to sneak in that jerk in the viking press at 2017 WSM. Hall seems to think he's a cunt. On the other hand Hall seems like a right cunt himself.

normie or not, how can you not enjoy watching this
youtube.com/watch?v=WodTx_Cj9q0

what could possibly constitute a better display of physical superiority and determination? kicking a ball around? lmao. this is just amazing, the struggle, the intensity, the unexpectedness. strongman is literally the only sport I enjoy watching. and it's shit like this and mateusz's surprise wins that keep it even more interesting.

Sadly Mateusz's spine is all fucked up due to some genetic disorder. He may win it soon but will not have longevity. Sad, he is an ANIMAL. almost did it up big on the frame carry too.

the stone lift yesterday is easily one of the top feats in strongman history

Being a manlet not named vytautas lalas is even worse
I really think that dimitar would do better if he cut his oral dosage down a bit, after a certain point they most be doing more harm than good.

About to start again

get in here bros

>no links

youtu.be/XbT0S17CRU4

What are you guys watching? Link?

...

not a fair event for my small hand niggas

just run more hgh then

look at the TOP OF HIS HEAD

>we crossfit now

horrrry shit

>ywn be W I D E
lalas is based, shame he probably won't be competing anymore, definitely never got the rep he deserved. He should've won WSM that one year, he was beating fucking Big Z then they threw the power stairs at him, aka manlet's worst nightmare. Pretty unfair. He did win the Arnolds once so he will be remembered, all is well.

On the other hand he's only 35 so maybe we'll see more of him, but I think he keeps getting injured.

How are you allowed to pause the weight on your belly?

is dimitar bloatmaxxed?

continental clean rules. aka the non retarded way of lifting a thick non-rotating axle up to your shoulders.

He is a cunt, but Thor is still more of a cunt for trying to cheatyboi the viking press and bitching about it afterwards.

It looks like they might pop an organ or something. 370lbs on the gut...

LEG DRIVEEE

I mean hes strong for his size but it doesn't matter when he doesn't place top 3, how does he humiliate people who are way past his level.

he did really really well on the natural stone to shoulder (4 full reps vs the next highest be 1 full rep)

WHAT THE FUCK

did you even read lmao
i did say specifically that he humiliates the other guys at one (1) single event per year.
in his wsm appearances that was the timber carry and the plane pull (while being the lightest, you gotta appreciate that), yesterday it was the stone to shoulder by a large fucking margin.
so yeah, when he does win he absolutely destroys the opposition. pretty interesting competitor.

Poor Shiv. Bloke's knackered.

>mixed grip cleans

CĂ‚LISSE

>two injuries on this meme shit

>ahnold hanging around the bottom of the frame taking selfies

lmao

kek

what organizations are there? where would i watch strongman stuff? how do i find strongman meets in burgerland?

You have to mix grip an axle because it's large enough that you can't wrap your whole hand around it and it doesn't have rotating collars.
and yet it's still caused less injuries than the super yoke last year lol

easy as fuck lmao

based shaw

>Thinking you can double-overhand an axle

>when strongmen can clean and press your deadlift

*intimidates the plebs*

shaw did 500lbs for a world record on that so technically he might be able to continental it DOH. but then again, what's the point.

also does the axle this year look physically unimpressive as fuck? these look like 20kg plastic weights, plus the short axle... makes it look like they're struggling to lift 60kg

YOUR NEW
WORLD
strongman champion

to call him a chad for specializing in one event is retarded. you're retarded.

Yeah the axle is a lot less impressive than the austrian oak

...

The massive cart wheels definitely look better.

Thor won with 4 clean&press of 370lbs

Mark Henry is funny, but he is so bad at being an announcer

>doubting Halfthor

*apologises for soiling the platform*

Its all because he bought a kooler with a K
