I'm genuinely honored to be mentioned as strong at something grip related from you, put a smile on my face hearing that haha
You were phenomenal in that grip comp video. Really super impressive
Well deserved man!
Your level at climbing with the fact that you're weighing 80kg is what makes you have such a strong grip.
No other pro climber is your weight
@@huquui8789weight doesn't really affect his grip since most of it comes from his height
Jan Hojer?@@huquui8789
Adam laughing and having fun and being a great guy while insisting that he is super competitive. I love that kind of attitude!
Was about to say the same. Couple of awesome dudes right here
Yeah definitely fun to watch
That 45 Kilos / world record moment was genuinely hilarious
U can only channel ur ultimate strength *when u r hanging for ur life*
-not a rock-climber
Reminds me of luffys attitude from on piece. Always jolly but can be completely serious if he wants to
"we have the same length yours is just beefier" - Magnus 2024
Thank you 🤝 Someone needed to.
The whole video could be used to make a very awkward sound bite compilation
Magnus interrupting himself when Adam uses his octopus technique to yell "YES!" is so funny to me, love seeing the excitement towards climbing.
Octopussy* xddddd
what the fuck@@workgd3083

Trust Adam Ondra to break the meta even on something as straightforward as a grip strength challenge!
Just when I think Magnus is the nicest guy I have seen on this channel, he brings this dude on. That GRIN is infectious. I found myself smiling hard just watching. I needed this today.
If you haven't seen Adam before ... watch his climb of "Silence" proposed to be the hardest outdoor clime ever completed at 5.15d, with like a V15/16 boulder problem as the crux right in the middle.
It's this insanely cool cave and the route goes from near the ground across the roof and out the mouth of the cave and terminates there. Such an amazing climb, route, and location. The whole video about his jurny training for it and the struggles to finally nail it is a really good watch. Adam actually makes really beautiful climbing vids, very talented team.
Lol this dude…. Just some random guy
Also watch his series in the crack cellar with wideboyz.. also watch wideboyz in general ❤
@@AProblemOfficer Ye he destroyed the crack cellar! He's actually a super strong crack climber aswell, not everyone realises this.
Same i also grinned
12:24 if you've ever wanted to hear adam ondra say "octopussy" on repeat
Donald Trump wishes and grip strength dreams.
Thank you
i love how adam is just a kid inside when he does these collabs, you never see him acting like people are wasting his time despite being literally the best in the world at a craft.
It’s his off-season.
he is exposing himself to a potential 2 milion audience at least. call it marketing, to some extent. there are worst ways to waste time
@@123provaHow about him just being genuinely joyful and pleasant.
@@mnemetotoro i agree that could be another aspect.....that could mix with the one I mentioned...we will never know.
@@123prova It’s a video of two guys with a shared passion for climbing, and mutual respect for one another, enjoying each other’s company.
It’s safe to believe a great athlete can also treat others with respect and be a genuinely pleasant person to be around. Through the years I’ve never seen or heard anything proving otherwise about him, quite the contrary.
I love how Adam immediatley notes that in actual climbing 'grip strength' is just as much about body position and leverage as actual strength. It really shows why he is a master of his sport.
I always love it when Adam is on for the collabs. These guys are so down to earth and it’s cool to see how much they respect each other.
Adam & Magnus being humble is genuinely a great reminder to most that you can achieve greatness and remain a good human being!
In my experience, people at the top of their field are usually super-passionate and humble. They love what they do and they love learning more about it.
Ironically the world best at not keeping his feet on the ground.
@@Mark-fd3mg fair enough. I think there’s quite a bit of nuance and it helps that many pro climbers are down to earth (and it’s a grind to build a brand that makes a comfortable living; climbing has notoriously been a broke persons sport / you don’t go into it to get rich). Not sure humble can be applied to lot of professional athletes or super successful individuals.
@@tylergeikie8005 That would depend very much on culture. I notice many Americans are expressing surprice in the comments when guys like this are genuinely humble and pleasant, or even assuming it’s an act for the camera for marketing reasons, while for Scandinavians (and culturally similar ppl) it’s like “Of course they are, why wouldn’t they be?”
Yessss. More climbing content. I started watching you 3 years ago you got me into climbing. And I did my second outdoor V12 last week.
Same
Up to v12 in 3 years? Jesus that's nuts! Fair play.
Wth i did my first indoor v6 after 5years😂
Sus but small possiblity if you were young enough. I did a short video of trying indoor V17 on my channel so I know what it's like to be doubted.
@@TheCorrectionist1984 I started at 15 I am now 18. And even tho everyone said don’t train till after a year I started training after the first month. I practically lived on a hangboard and campus board. And I did 6-8 hour sessions 5 days a week
One of the things I admire about Adam more than anything is just how HARD he tries at everything, it’s amazing.
So nice to see more climbing-style videos hope more OG-style videos come out. Looking forward to watching this video! Saying hello from Brno :)
If you ever need an excuse to travel to Canada-Yves Gravelle is 3x grip world champion and a V15 climber. Super nice guy and probably the strongest climber, overall strength-wise
Magnus mentioned him in the video, that would be a good collab.
He looks like Popeye lol
I second this collab! Magnus in Yves' mancave would be incredible!
would also love to see a grip strength video with devon larratt, loved the video you did with him a while ago
Would be very interesting! Think his strength is more in the wrist and pronator than fingers, but his fingers will of course still be strong!
Yeah, Vitaly Laletin already did a test and has a shocking 155kg grip.
@@m.c.l.a_studios yeah that was absolutely ridiculous.
Yess, i would really like to see devon and Magnus again
This is the most wholesome video you've released in some time. Your editor clearly knows what to do - leaving in the infectious laughing, comparing pinkes etc. Bravo.
Magnus is the editor 😊
@@technodromencheck the description ;)
saw it! my bad 😀@@jonaspreissler7429
they have the best and funniest energy together! love this colabs with Adam 👏😃😍
The octopussy way killed me 😂😂😂
It is so cooling seeing how psyched Adam is. Just great energy. I really love seeing content like this. You can really see how invested Magnus is and how much he enjoys geeking about stuff like finger positioning. 😂
I know he gets this a lot, but Adam’s spirit for the challenge and the way he gives 100% of his effort into things is so inspiring. You don’t get many people like him in the world
"We have the same length, just yours is beefier!"
Great sentence to take out of context ;)
Missed these kind of videos and always happy to see Ondra collab with you. Wish you another successful year.
I'm not sure how it is off camera but when Magnus and Adam make any content together it's such a positive experience no matter what they're doing. Everything they make together seems to be a banger vid.
It’s cool watching Magnus show Adam all of the grip strength equipment; it’s just like a friend who’s excited to tell you about their new hobby.
The chemistry between you both is so amazing and fun to watch!
I wouldn't have even been surprised if Adam was strictly weaker on all of these metrics than Magnus. Adam's magic has always been in his technique: his rapid and precise movement, flexibility to get the best angle on holds, and world leading ability to find rests.
I think the physics behind the difficulty cutoff make a lot of sense. The limiting factor is actually how much friction you can achieve, not how much weight you can lift. Since friction breaks at a specific point the lift becomes impossible at a very sharp cutoff, without getting close to the amount of weight that you could lift with a normal grip.
THIS. However a different grip or lift most times work different muscles tendons, ligaments, etc. So even one grabs with the hand a bar or sometihng else, the amount of force you can exert is very different (wrist alone vs whole arm, etc.)
Love your videos. I have been out of the climbing gym since I injured my knee. This stuff keeps my hopes up as I get back into it!
let me guess. Meniscus?
Man I feel the pain, last year when climbing I dislocated my kneecap, couldnt go climbing for months BUT I made a fast recovery through training hard.
My doctor and physiotherapist said it would take around 3-4 months to recover, I did it in less then 3 months!
If I can do it, so can you! You'll get back to the wall, just stick to it and get over the hurdle :)
@@zurreal9783 may I ask how???
@@beamyy7745 Dedication, hardwork and professional help.
Before I got out of the hospital I made sure to get in contact with my doctor to get a early workout program, which would help strengthen my then very stretched muscles.
After following the workout 2 times daily for a week, I got in contact with a physiotherapist that helped me get my strength back by doing body weight workouts, some machines, and free weights, did that 3 times a week.
It took around 2 months and 2-3 weeks for me to get back to full shape and in the end the leg I screwed up is now stronger then my other leg lol xD
you guys are just lovely to watch. stay humble.
i always love to see grip strength related content its super cool to see
Great videos man, keep up the great work and hope you have a great year for 2024
adam seems like such a joy to climb with I love his laugh too so much joy in it
Great video, you guys have an awesome dynamic, I always enjoy seeing the fun challenges and it looked like Adam had fun as well!
Adam is such a person of light, such a nice person
Magnus had 73.9 kg grip strength Adam had 73.2 kg grip strength.
and i have 65kg, but i can only climb V3s !
I was expecting Magnus to be stronger (as always 😅). But i think there is by far no climber in the world who could beat Adam in terms of technique.
I have the same hand dyno and they have it adjusted to max open. It only moves a tiny amount when squeezed, so you can adjust it from open pinch-sized down to effectively 1" barbell handle-sized. As climbers and grip-trainers know, open and closed grip strength is quite different. Just now I got 158lb full open and only 142 at the small end (right hand). I can just close a Captains of Crush #2 with my right only (not quite left), but can only hang from the largest pockets (1½ pad?) of my hangboard for 10-15s (weigh 230lb), and only climb V3. Never had access to all the toys in this video! Point being, there's a lot of dimensions to grip and finger strength! Never mind actual climbing technique.
@@csn583I have yet to see a good single measurement of true “grip strength” a #2 coc is pretty fricking good though!
Great as always, Magnus :)
Amazing always love the videos with Adam and Magnus
love your content. so engaging. keep up the great work
this was awesome, but I wish you guys had also climbed! fun to see the strength tests but one of my favourite things is seeing you guys climb together!
just wanted to say magnus you are a legend keep doing great
Super stoked for Adam's sport climbing course. I watched the sneak peak the other day, and actually used his advice later that same day to send a V8 in a few goes in a style that's historically been my anti-style! I didn't sign up for bouldering blueprint since I'm already doing well there, but my goal this season is to send a 5.13, so I'll be sure to sign up for this ASAP!!!
12:23 Adam mentions the weird octopussy. I'll leave it without context
He was thinking about his toys at home, freudian slip
The only thing missing is like a 10 minute video bouldering session together.
I love the energy in the videos with Adam
The laughing and joking in this was so good to watch. Magnus provides content that is enjoyable and uplifting (no pun intended). Keep up the good work. 👍
Alex Honnold tested his grip strength aswell, he got 70 something with his right hand, but then he got like 93 with his left hand. He was really surprised. I was surprised that both you and Adam only tested your right hands!
he did it with pounds, so the 93 is about 42 kilos. Didn't seem like he gave it all tho
I doubt he gave it all... I got 74,8 kg and I'm a just a V6 climber
Lol, do you climb without feet? I pull 51 and I've bouldered 5 grades harder than that @@lucabettoni7432
I will start climbing soon because of you!
When you said, "The whole grip lifting community will be super excited to see this," I felt heard.
A collab with Jakob Schubert would be awesome after he earned his place in the history books for last years climbing season.
I haven't seen Jakob's grip strength measured but for sure it must be at the very top of the charts. I think he would try really hard at this. Adam is not known for having crazy grip strength, but rather perfect technique, insane flexibility, and the loudest screams!
So nice to see these awesome climbers just hang out :D
Please do more videos with Adam. You are a great team
bouldering videos from magnus are always so exciting!!!!
I love these grip challenges. My gym only has the pinch block but its cool to see how I compare to everyone.
Great content Magnus, I don't even climb but your videos are awesome. Cheers
Between this and the other video with Adam.. His laugh is so contagious and enjoyable to see. Every time he starts laughing I just smile
Adam's still a beast, even after a three week break and not a lot of practise with this sport! I watched Emil's grip strength comp video a while ago, and he's crazy strong on this stuff too, but that competition lacked some of these grip types for a full comparison.
It looks like a big part of your max lift comes down to general lifting technique. The movement of lifting something from the floor is not what you'd usually do as a climber. Would be interesting to see what would happen if you rigged it with a rope on a pulley system so you could pull downwards instead of up. Although once it goes over your body weight you'd end up just pulling yourself off the floor 😆
They could have ways to anchor down the feet or legs
Magnus your videos are superbbbbbb!!!!
Adam’s enthusiasm is just awesome!
finally a grip video
@@boogaloo4640 yes i know, ive watched them all. but the last one was 14 videos ago
“We have the same length yours is just beefier” AYOO 😂
The vibe in this video😍👌 I love how passionate and funny they are!!
I had the honor to shake this dude's hand at the "South moravian sportsman of the year" event. Such a chill guy
RIP your hand 😂
Two of the most talented and humble people alive.
Such a chill vibe. Nice to watch.
A couple of things that are important to note: climbers are more about power to weight ratio and also train more for endurance.
Obviously top level climbers have very good peak strength, but over lengthier events or movements for time I think they would fare even better.
Another factor is tendon strength, which is something less obvious and also hard to measure, but things like shallow crimps on minimal fingers aren't something often trained even by grip athletes
If anything this video proves that for the top climbers out there, it's all about the right mental state that allows you to overcome your limits.
its so funny to watch Adam are just excited on everything 😂 this mindset is extreme its just made him happy
The idea that I have comparable strength on that size edge to Adam is one of the most depressing revelations of my climbing career.
Thank you for awesome content.
👍🐿👍
Grip-strength + two great climbers = great video. :)
3 weeks break and do this? OMG. I'm speechless.
Btw those 2 guess are the best advertising what climbing community can have at the moment. Super nice, friendly and always in good mood. But still top of their fields.
Other sports can be jealous.
I love the name of that gym, logo is great too. Inter-discipline strength, speed and flexibility tests are always pretty fascinating... and funny, like when the strongman guys try their hand at long drive on golf channels.
This was great to watch. For future videos I would not be telling anyone in advance what weight the record is, it would potentially have an effect on the outcome. I remember when I used to climb, sometimes I would just pick out a route that looked good to me and didn't want to know anything about it (rating, pro, etc.) It really is more fun to find out yourself.
"We're the same length, but yours is beefier." Sorry, just couldn't help myself.
Love this as it shows how strength is NOT the thing you need the most to be a world class climber
I've never seen Magnus so bubbly, this is awesome=D I guess he's like this around people he knows and feels comfortable around^^
Gotta love a good grip video.
i actaully love magnus's videos, i hope i can meet him one day .
Loved the video!
You know your evening is saved when you see Magnus uploaded a new Video
boys discussing their pinkies is so adorable
Great video, both of you are strong af
Great video as always Magnus! I would love to see you make a video with Alex Megos one day.
Oh, i was thinking the same
Yay!! Just wonderful! ❤ from Canada
Magnus thank you for that video. Actually I am impressed again by how controlled you are all the time. That made made me think off what might make you go excited or crazy. Maybe you can think of that as another challange and see what thing makes you the least controlled :D
@magnus you should make a climbing series for that , its quite entertaining to watch. Greetings from Greece
I always love these videos! 22 minutes of smiling away - thank you. I'd be curious how a windsurfer would do. Although we generally don't require explosive moves as in rock climbing, most windsurfers have powerful forearms. One wonders how that endurance translates into these exercises of pure strength. What circumference is your forearm Magnus? I measured out of interest and I'm at 33 cm.
87kg on a 20mm edge?! Magnus you could give Yves Gravelle a run for his money, that is VERY strong! Maybe a colab in future?
Knall bra som alltid! Stå på!
Ondra and Magnus comparing pinkies! greatest moment
Magnus still continueng the test while his thumb is bleeding...respect man
I'm excited to see my regular gym in these videos :D
Adam is sooo humble! Of course Magnus is also known for that :)
Nice one!
we need a follow up for when he is back in his best shape
Nice vid. BTW Adam already did this with czech strongest man, Anabolic Horse (Jan Krasinsky), but that was in czech.
Ive been DYING for this video!!
i hope Adam comes back one day when he really is in shape! :D
The disguise really got me this time, couldn’t tell it was magnus
Magnus and Adam comparing pinkies is something I never thought I'd find so funny, but alas I'm here laughing my butt off
Magnus casually saying "we might break some records today"
First of all i love ur Videos and shown personality, great work.
Have u ever asked Anatoly for a climbing session? (i dont know about his finger strength but i guess its fun to watch and i bet he can do some crazy dynos)
