Man... Robert you are a BEAST!!! Its GREAT SEEING ALL The AMAZING progress you have attained since the last time I saw you in Naples, Idaho at the N.A.S. in 2011 competition I was in the 201lb division. I have this AWESOME Picture of you SCREAMING at me to get the Atlas stone over the Yolk bar!! IT SO BAD ASS! So Proud of you Man!!! Keep IT UP!! YOUR ARE CHANGING THE WORLD!!!!!
+Robert Oberst I just wanted to tell you I think you're pretty f****** awesome I've been a big guy on my wife not as big as you I'm 6 foot for 3:35 I'm sixty years old now when I was younger we used to get drunk and do stupid s*** before that me I could lifted truck off the ground or live some incredible thing and I get it drunk Nobel dumb things like that I know what it's like with heavy things it's not just in your body it's in your head you gotta see it you got it you got to be a part of it got to be part of it understand the way you have to eat you can feel a big truck without fuel it won't go nowhere but you got a gift and it's not just in your body is your head keep it up as long as you can when you get to my age you have a fake hip maybe I hear something so take these years you can do this stuff and do it is good and can make your money stick in the bank and then train other people don't give up I've had cancer I've been run over by a truck and I have osteoarthritis pretty bad but I won't quit lifting keep it up guys you rock
I love to see your videos, Robert. I'm currently training for my very first strongman comp next summer and following your progress always pushes me to push myself harder. Keep doing what you're doing, you beautiful man-beast!
Met you at the vancouer pro am, going to put a vlog up soon with you in it. Just gotta say meeting and talking to you is a memory I will hold onto, And I gotta make that pasta when I start my bulk haha
Sir Robert.I would like to commend you on your hard efforts that raised those muscles from the scratch :) Keep it on and do your best!I wish you the best of luck and i hope everything goes well as far as concerns your family-Yourself-and whatever you value the most!
I don't know if you read these Robert but you are seriously one strong person! Damn dude. It's motivating to see for us mere mortals. Respect bro, stay strong.
Wow, you make it look so easy... some time ago i went to the gym and i tried to do something like that with only 20kg, i was able to do like 3 or 4 squats and at the other day i was totally in pain LOL.
Robert mate I'm turning 15 in 3 days and been training for about a year and want to start strongman and I could really use ur help with program progressive scheme cheers mate and mobility rehab and rehab cheers
I could do 20 front squats of 200 lbs when weighing 168 lbs, how can he do the same reps weighing over 400 lbs body weight? This guy is seriously fit and strong.
Riesen Esel Watched the video. There is one Asian dude than can front squat 230KG for 2 reps......but weightlifters would specialize in that particular exercise any way as it makes up a huge part of their 2 lifts. Also just because someone weights a shit load does not mean they will or should be good at front squats. This guy is more of a puller and overhead presser any way and has a shit load more isometric, concentric and eccentric strength than weightlifters because he is a strong man not a weight lifter who by the way have more power and explosive strength and just because he weighs a lot does not mean his front squats are not impressive as I personally do not know many big guys that can front squat 5 plates.
+Roman Most elite strongman are able to do this.Big Z, Eddie Hall, Koklaev and a few others are front squating nearly 300 kg ore more.Oberst legs are not so strong, he ist better in other disciplines, because he is very tall. The strongest superheavy weightlifter are able do front squat 300 kg for a double. Best front squater today i think is Derek Kendall he is a monster squater.All time worldrecord in clean and jerk in 75 kg class is 215.5 kg from Alexander Varbanov.
I'm curious if he ever uses an Olympic clean grip rather than the cross grip, and if so why not. I find I lose the bar forward a lot more with the cross grip than the clean grip.
+trampley No offense to the dude but I can't imagine he has the mobility to get into a comfortable rack position like that. Plus he doesn't want to be an olympic weightlifter so there's no point in him worrying about being in a clean rack position if the cross grip is easier
But we are talking about the front squat and 220x2 for a shw isn't impressive. I know he is a worldclass stronman, good in loglift pulling disciplines and other stuff. The strongest shw weighlifters and strongman like Big Z Eddie Hall are able to front squat nearly 300 kg X2. Oberst insn't that strong in the legs.
+Alex Ettinger invest in a GOOD trainer to show you technique on the basics. contrary to the current trend you cant learn how to work out by watching youtube videos. you need to get in the gym and be hands on with someone who knows their shit
Does he not have a coach or even a slightly experienced lifting partner or somethin? how does he expect to beat the top strongman if he can't even deep squat? you are only as strong as the weakest link in the chain,so just stretch your goddamn stiff ankles
That's, certainly.... Interesting music...
Should be titled: Cosmic Flatulence
Electric Fart Symphony
man for a big guy he has some cardio. he doesnt breath heavily after sets like other strongmen. thumbs up robert!
Yeah his brother is a doctor so he takes care of his heart
Watching some of these video has gotten me to push harder in the gym. Thank you Robert!

Music sounds like my toilet visit after chipotle
I look up to guys like him. showing how lean and ripped doesn't always have to be. just being truly big and powerful is where it is
my ears are D E A D
Nice Tunes in my ears
Keep at it. I will love to see more of your videos. Great work.

Ober The Ogre

BoulderShoulders check out StartingStrongman.com...site created by Robert's good friend Kalle Beck. They have a free 12 week strongman program
Holy shit your like a mix of the Hulk and Thing , just wondering have you ever gone head to head against Brian shaw?
You got some really flawless technique. Btw, where do you get the shirts?
How can I be big and strong like you
He has really small legs for such an incredibly strong bloke. Muscle is pretty amazing stuff.
I could do 20 front squats of 200 lbs when weighing 168 lbs, how can he do the same reps weighing over 400 lbs body weight? This guy is seriously fit and strong.
Let me guess, you're American
pizzaDhut Well, you're weak _and_ racist
Both of these guys are probably scrawny or fat with zero muscle
I wonder how many bars you've bent over the years.
Huge fan of yours dude. You and Ronnie Coleman should do some front squats together as you are both awesome at them.
+Roman 225 kg for a double thats nothing for a superheavy.77 kg elite weightlifter can do this and he weighs more than 2 of them.
Riesen Esel Please show me a video then? As I doubt that very much.

Riesen Esel I agree with most of what you say and clearly you know your stuff. Peace to you Iron brother.

Woul d you ever give Oly lifting a shot?
he can't even bend his ankles,oly lifting is 70% mobility and 30% strenght
220kg for a double? Fuck that is friggin' awesome! Front squats are my kryptonite...
+David Quinlan 77 kg elite weightlifter can do this, i am not impressed.
Riesen Esel A 77kg weightlifter would not lift a 200kg atlas stone or pull a plane, what's your point?
But we are talking about the front squat and 220x2 for a shw isn't impressive.
I know he is a worldclass stronman, good in loglift pulling disciplines and other stuff.
The strongest shw weighlifters and strongman like Big Z Eddie Hall are able to front squat nearly 300 kg X2.
Oberst insn't that strong in the legs.
The best strongmen always do conditioning and
Get comfortable with being uncomfortable!
I WANT TO BE LIKE YOU. I'm 16 and really want to start to lift Weights more and get huge. i just don't know were to start
get some books(and youtube videos) and study that shit and try everything u can find. Pick the stuff which works for u and train.
+Alex Ettinger invest in a GOOD trainer to show you technique on the basics. contrary to the current trend you cant learn how to work out by watching youtube videos. you need to get in the gym and be hands on with someone who knows their shit
yo robert, you should do a vid about your beard
I'm surprised he didn't bend that bar.
rip full rom
I hit 365 for 2 this year as a sophomore all natural
he is adorable
Crazy impressive, big man.....improve that ankle mobility and you’ll do some real damage in WSM
The way his hands are placed, he kinda looks like he's choking himself...
channel dead ?
Somg name
Why do u guys have to play the worst like dubstep gym mixes lol
Does he not have a coach or even a slightly experienced lifting partner or somethin? how does he expect to beat the top strongman if he can't even deep squat? you are only as strong as the weakest link in the chain,so just stretch your goddamn stiff ankles
OB still the same guy from high school just bigger!! Proud of your accomplishments bro
BRUH! YOU WERE ON A 5 HOUR ENERGY COMMERCIAL!?
