NON-POLAR PAUL not only are you dumb for not getting that the quote was from a comedy skit, but the fact that you compared body builders to strongmen means you probably go to planet fitness
@I'm On Your Roof DEFINITELY shouldn't be attempting a max on one of these things. You could spend an equal amount of money on a power rack, learn proper technique, and be safer in doing so.
There seems to be a direct correlation between badass activities and danger levels (except throwing rocks at a hornet's nest, that's just plain stupid)
Love it! Im 55 and watched Alan do his strongman log technique, did it Sunday morning, now I'm hooked!!! Little by little though like he said. Thanks Alan!!
i agree that some crossfit gyms are bad in terms of pushing their members when they aren't ready, however to be fair i imagine you could say the same thing about a bad strong man gym. strong man competitions have the same goal of getting in as many reps as possible in a given time. any half decent crossfit gym will slowly add more movements and allow time for members to properly learn the movement. and even when they do learn the movement a decent coach will allow the member to increase weight and intensity at their own pace. btw this is in no way a ''hate comment'' i'm a big fan of the channel this is just my opinion based on my experience.
Believe this of all things, I train for strongman competitions, HAVE YET TO HURT MYSELF (knock on wood). BUT, I can’t count the number of times I have pinched my fingers while loading plates on a deadlift bar 🙄. Great topic to cover Alan 👍🏻.
Who is pressing stones and dropping them? That’s right. No one. Safety during the lift is the first priority, because you fail when you drop it. If you can’t handle some level of risk, then enjoy your diaper change. You achieve nothing without risk.
@A.A.Ron Davis It just seems so unnecessary. Like the only other strong man move I don't like watching is the kegel toss because that looks dangerous (throwing a heavy thing over your head and not looking at where it lands) There are so just so many better ways to increase overhead strength, why does it have to be a ball (crossfitters are gonna be using a bar for a c&j and snatch anyways so?)
It's always the small thing that get you. Like for example someone who is able to lift 800 pounds Might get hurt lifting a 50 pound object because he picked up fast and forget his form.
Some of the best factual and institutional videos on RUclips! I've been training 35 years, but, that's not to say I still can't learn anything. If I do want to look at lifting instruction, first stop, is Alan Thrall! That's not bullshit either!
I totally agree, strongman is just as dangerous as any sport or activity. There's one event I really don't like and I think is way too dangerous and that is stone pressing.
The thing I'd be most interested in would be the effects on your spine health in the long term because stone loading should put a lot of axial load on it. I feel like this is worth thinking about when you construct programs so you e.g. don't go heavy on stones all the time and do some lighter technique training paired with heavy accessories like SDLs instead when you're not peaking for a contest.
This video addressed the main issue with a lot of lifting/trainers. As a kid, every person training me to lift did the same thing "oh, you play football? You've never lifted before? Lets start you out with 45lb dumbell press 15x, 135lb bench press 10x and 205lb squats 10x. Do 4 sets of each. Get it done." I hated lifting. It was a nightmare. I was never any good and i was always in pain. Flash foreward to when i was 29 and i met a dude that got me back into lifting. He started by saying "i don't know what you are capable of, so lets start small, 20lbs or so and get tge form down. Heavy weight will come over time. Been lifting hard ever since, raising my numbers and loving every minute of it.
To speak for the crahsfitters on Alans channel. Most crossfit boxes don't advice beginners try out new movements at max intensity. The case is often on the beginner getting too pumped and do stupid choices. While that is said. There are bad boxes and coaches out there. 100%. And when people step away from crossfit after 2-3 months they mostly highlight the bad experiences.
I am just recovering after an umbilical hernia operation, it probably existed since I was young, and powerlifting made some belly fat go through it, but yeah, you'll be ok as long as you have a spotter while benching or heavy squatting.
Trail running-a couple small cuts & scrapes, lifting weights, a couple strained muscles, ball sports-couple twisted anckles. 25+ years in construction, perminant hand ,wrist,back, shoulder, back injurys. You don't have to look for problems, they'll come to you if you wait for them.
Alan is preternaturally insightful on weight training. I don't know how a guy so young, can be so knowledgeable. He is an extremely intelligent, thoughtful trainer.
The issue isn't acute injuries as much as chronic injuries. Mostly cartilage wear and spine disc compression. How many inches shorter does someone get after 10 years of strongman training? We need to know this.
I think people need to worry more about what their goals are. It seems that a lot of injuries occur when you’re fatigued. I’ve had the barbell hit me in the head during an incline because I was solo benching and missed the hook on one side and my arms were toast.
I started deadlift at 65lbs just to feel the form. I realized 65 pounds wasn't enough force being pulled against me to allow me to feel any type of proper form. So I slowly went up until I hit a # in which I could feel the resistance in my form. That ended up being 1 plate. But the tip to take it slow for these lifts is the smartest thing to help learn proper technique/form and avoid injury.
Thnx for the informative video honestly I've seen alotta shit happen in my sport too btw I do calisthenics the freestyle version occasionally repz, I've seen people try to do backflips and hit their head on the bar I've seen people try to do a geinger regrab and slip of the bar and hit their head ive seen people try to do some crazy move and break their teeth, one of my closest friends tore his whole medial triceps head by trying to transfer from one bar and catch himself on the next his hand slipped off and his whole triceps was toren
Theirs been a few moments when someone tries to push their body a little too hard and the bicep tears like the planche Is a really good example of you push that hard and I mean say fuck the mind and your gonna end up tearing your inner elbow tendon
Doinf powerlifting and CrossFit, got to admit its better to do things in a moderate pace or lower weights than try to go 110% all the time. My progess is better doing so.
people can bleed out when they fart, so injuries can come from anywhere. and in Crossfit a lot of programming and training is made up the night before. The Games are worse, they connect events that are not related and use time rather than effort as a metric
I'm novice gym goer, trying to focus on strength training, and also cut some body fat. The only injuries I got (that bothered me for more than a week) were the result of using freaking treadmill...
Nice video. I used to go to a CrossFit gym where the WODs were programmed off of the best xfitter in the gym and everyone else “should” scale. But it was not enforced. And rarely would dudes scale. Seems way smarter to program with the perceived effort instead.
A slightly unrelated question. I noticed Omar kept his belt on during rest periods on that big dumbell. Since I mostly see lifters undo their belts after each lift, specially if they got one of those lever belts, i wanted to ask what do you suggest. Is it smart or silly to leave a belt on during rests. Since it should never be on tight enough to constrict breathing it shouldn't do any damage or hinder the rest period? Or would it be smarter to take it off or release it each time to relax that little bit more (not counting warmups)?
I’ve broke 8 bones skateboarding, had a couple concussions from football, I’ve pulled muscles, and I shattered my skull playing hide and seek injuries are apart of life especially for athletes
I think what people are more concerned about is things like lifting atlas stones with a rounded back. How good are these things for your joints etc. Not that I disagree with the sentiment of the video
I think a'lot of strongman people might like farming. A'lot of those moves are a part of my job. Tractor tires, pulling and pushing things, picking things up overhead, and trying to get a bigass rock from the field up into the rockbox on a tractor. Damn I love my job
Help Alan! I've always been out of breathe when squatting for even 6 reps! I used to do triathlons and I still consider myself still to be in good cardiovascular shape. However I do have a belly with "visceral fat on it. What could I be doing wrong? I breathe deep before I start squating, enlarging my tummy. I hold that breathe for the way down and let it out right at the top of my squat, but I still am out of breathe and I feel the lack of oxygen is preventing me from lifting heavier than 205 for a set. I am writing this becasue just today I had a dizzy spell while squating and a near by personal trainer had to help me rack my barbell. It never happened to me before but it was embarrassing.
Trained with a log for the first time Monday morning. Started to black out and went down face first into some scrap wood in my garage. Had to get my forehead glued back together and narrowly missed my eye. 3/10 would not recommend that maneuver.
Why do you think it is that strongmen don't snap their backs with atlas stones while rounding it like that with deadlift is a 1st class ticket to snap city at any progression?
@Alan Thrall For your CrossFit comment, take a look at this: "... the court ordered the NSCA to pay CrossFit, Inc. $3,997,868.66 as a sanction and then terminated the case in CrossFit’s favor. ... CrossFit, Inc. sued the NSCA after the NSCA published a “scientific” study containing false and fabricated data about CrossFit’s injury rate that was designed specifically to harm CrossFit’s business and reputation."
Makes me think of the time I saw this new guy first join my gym. After they showed him around and hearing him say he's never worked out before , he then signed up and the first thing I watched him do is walk over to the bench press and start loading up 45 lb plates, four on each side for 405 lbs. He was kinda skinny and a thin guy and he didn't even warm up any at all and I thought this should be entertaining. And it was, he couldn't even get it off the rack, in fact it never moved any LOL.. Geeeez what do people expect?
Hey Alan thank you for the video, I have a question, you did a video on the 7 sign of over training which I really liked and I was trying to show it to a friend, but I cannot find it anywhere, what happen?
Strongman probably only becomes dangerous when you’re on a huge amount of gear, eating 10,000+ calories a day and lifting weights that shouldn’t be possible
it's very risky and life threatening to handle heavy objects, we all must stay home safe in front of our tv screens and lay on our cozy sofas drinking beer
Mate, weakman is dangerous. I was doing 15KG dumbbell chest press the other day and i thought a spider was on the dumbbell (it was a leaf) so i dropped the dumbbell at a funny angle and injured my wrist. Can't even move my hand anymore because of the pain, but oh well.
Dont think strongman is dangerous in comaprison to other activities from accident standpoint I think in strongman there is danger in longevity of your body in comparison to swimming for example
Omar needs to be careful. He might inadvertently train his calves doing the truck pull

That dude had absolutely NO BUSINESS attempting that weight. It just folded him as soon as he got 1/4 of the way down.

Unless the rock is 100kg natural stone... then its badass
If u look cool while throwing those rocks you should be good

True story, I'm always super paranoid about my back form while cleaning up my weights after a work set
How about the current trend of pressing atlas stones overhead? Just waiting for someones hand to slip and split their head open.
that sounds pretty dangerous, but if you inflict damage by using more weight than you are used to, i can say the Darwin Award is waiting
Who is pressing stones and dropping them? That’s right. No one. Safety during the lift is the first priority, because you fail when you drop it.
