Thought the same. "Okay, it's a prank but ...... were these weights fake then or what is the prank?" To me: This man is a natural wonder and i still dont understand how he is able to do what he does.
@@Dornpunzel i can help you understand this insane concept that has you confused. i know it sounds insane but it was not a spider bite or a chemical accident that gave this man his powers, it is a phenomenon known to many as hard work and dedication. 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
@@him7401he is a known powerlifter and holding a record , you can see if weights are fake when the bar does not bend . If it’s bend it’s real . This guy and his videos are 100% real
It just blows my mind the weight he can lift. Even being in the shape he is, his strength is still astounding. I can lift everything he is, but I am also twice his size.
I love the honesty and careful concern by all of the staff at these gyms. they seem very intelligent, capable and realistic. And they give me more confidence in what folks should expect in a gym...which I have never been in btw.
There aren't words to describe how powerful you are for your size! You benched with ease weight that men TWICE your arm size struggled with! You're AMAZING!
Bodybuilders will build muscles for size, powerlifters are often training for strength. I used to outbench most of my gym buddies weighing about 50 pounds less than them, just because they were training for a bodybuilding comp, and I was in it for power.
I literally never was at a gym but I have to say I’m super surprised how nice and helpful everyone seems to be. this changes my sight a bit and I might give it a try…
you know, I really would like to give it a try. but I’m the classic case… honestly I’m ashamed because everyone there would be in better shape than I am. but all the big guys in those videos being so nice makes me think they maybe won’t point me out as a lough. all I got is my attitude to be willing to work hard to feel better.
@@call1a1rich I was intimidated to get started because I thought I’d be judged but everyone starts somewhere and everyone’s there to try to get better. A lot of people are excited to help out a beginner. I found the bigger and scarier the guy looked he was usually very willing and eager to share information.
@@call1a1rich Try to practice Calisthenics in a park or your house: Pull ups, push ups, deep, squats, leg raises and pistol squats. That will give you a good base for lifting weight if you train properly. For instance, in my case I look thin with a normal shirt too but I remember one day I went to a gym and I tried a machine for back which a fatter or more muscular guy was using. The thing is that I was able to move the weight mucho more quickly than him and I noticed he look down on me before I lifted the weight haha
you guys are really motivating! I just made my first trainer appointment for saturday. as a rookie I was told to get instructions first. so thank you guys for responding! quite sure I wouldn’t have called if the reactions were bad…
@@Billabongbabalog Anabolic steroids increase muscle mass. Which also increases strength. If you people are going to accuse someone of being on something then name the drug? What drug keeps your body at natty levels of muscle mass and gives you elite level strength?
I know the purpose of these videos is just entertainment but I love to see that people are willing to take time out of their day to show someone the right technique or have a conversation with them :)
i felt for the aussie trainer, he was genuinely concerned. i think they need more than "its a prank" regardless how entertaining it is, he said himself it's his career. he took it seriously and i think he deserves more for that. Mega video though
they are like coleagues, no one can lift that much not being a really good professional powerlifter and the trainers knows it if they are no religious haha
Whats so interesting is how this is an illustration of our culture, in that it is warm and welcoming. I've been a personal trainer for over 34 years, professional natural bodybuilder etc and I'm so happy to see how our people are portrayed in our natural environment. It doesn't matter where in the world one goes, the personality of most REAL, committed lifters toward ALL people who are willing to put in the work and not make excuses is phenomenal. Notice how gentle, kind and humble we are and it's not an act.
And say to yourself that “it’s not over”… I really needed that today man… You have a ton of 100% little truths that do nothing but add up!! THANK YOU!!!!
I have watched every single video of this amazing man and I'm still bewildered by his unexplainable strength. If I was very rich I would get him as my personal trainer without a doubt.
Yeah ... I don't get it. These guys are soooo big and yet they don't lift the weights he does with his relatively "small" (but impressive) build. Must be his "knowledge" combined with his "formoola".
You remind me of a bro I used to know back in the day and he was always awkward and everyone thought he was weird. I embraced his social personality and turned out this man was a little unorthodox, but a genius and when others questioned me for hanging out with him he taught me things I would have never learned from anyone else. He was a big bro I never had and in the short period span that I knew him before he passed away. I swear he instilled in me personal life skills and observations that I never would have imagined. Til this day I have not met anyone as crazy and wild as the boy! RIP to Danny. I miss you bro.
💥💥Shout out Danny!✊👊 Isn't it weird when people question you about hanging out with someone! Cause they are not as cool as they should be, or something! Used to happen to me in high school. I would sit with anyone and I was popular. That was 35 years ago LOL
Everyday before sleep Anatoly videos became my usual entertainment go to. I love every part of it. Humor, acting, element of surprise, quick thinking. I noticed in every video how humble people are even if they are puzzled on what's going on. His strength are motivating me to start gym. I like his size
I love seeing the reactions to people finding out it's a prank at the end. Please keep those in the videos! Your power to size ratio is insane brother, keep up the great work!
This guy has serious skills, both athletic and how he puts together the video and even the commercial part of the video is really entertaining. Kudos! I laugh out loud everytime I watch these.
Last week I saw your videos for the first time. And they are so funny. The reactions of the people in the gym, I only can imagine how they feel,they lift their maximum,and then the cleaner comes and he can do more and so easy. It made my day.
The woman in 6:36 knew all along. While she was watching and thinking like "Girl, don't worry about him. He can take it" I like how patient she was in that video so that she wouldn't ruin Anatoly's prank for the woman trainer.
I feel for the trainers as he goes to lift the weights. I’d be freaking out like there’s no way I don’t end up in the news tomorrow after this dude breaks his neck 😆
Right I wonder this too, it seems like he convinces the trainers the weight is for a picture and that he won’t actually lift the weights and then lifts them when they don’t expect it. But not every time, it makes me wonder why the trainers allow him to make these attempts. I guess he leaves them no option other than forcefully stopping him.
@@brandonguild1666 tbh I think this is just fake and for entertainment purposes only, there’s no way this is real, you don’t just randomly have a high resolution camera zooming back and fourth like logically where the fuck would it be placed for these people not to realise. So they are all I think just actors tbh, all of this seems too sketchy to be true but really fun to watch nonetheless 😂
@@justend9760, yup, much more content than people realize is made like this. Scenario -> actors -> video. The goal is just to make more money than you spend filming.
I bet the guy who tried a bench when he was saying "maybe it's plastic" felt like a total pu*** after seeing a guy half his size knock out lifts with ease 😂
@@since1876, that's the thing: even being in his shape, the weight he lifts is incredible for his size. I can easily lift the weight he does... but I am also WAY bigger than him. Yeah, even after it's discovered he is an obviously trained lifter, it's still mind-blowing to see someone his size lift that much weight, regardless.
@@johndeeregreen4592 I've never lifted weights before. I'm unemployed right now and make money by making and selling things. It's kind of enough to survive on, but I really need to find real work so I can afford a gym membership. Last time I could have afforded it, I was too intimidated by all the options to want to even go. Then, after an injury, I started doing physical therapy and now my body is stronger than it ever was, thanks to all the exercises that I'd never done but am now doing. I also now realize it's not rocket science, go to the gym and do whatever feels good and do it until you're tired. And then do one more set. Make sure nothing ever hurts in a bad way. Everyone who works there will be happy to show you the right way to use a machine! And finding exercise routines is as simple as searching Google or using the openai chat bot or whatever. But I bet when I can afford to do it, I'll be able to put up a lot of weight. I'm 6'6" and 316ish, so I'd imagine that if I actually started working to build muscle, I'd be able to keep up with lots of people. But I'm sure that without a couple decades of intense training like this guy already has, I don't stand a chance at putting up the weight to bodyweight ratio this man can do....he's got some interesting genetics and probably some excellent personal trainers that he's worked with over the years.
Everyone take note, the first guy is what a trainer should be. He is firm, fair and willing to give a serious reality check to his client. No fuss, no mess. Anyone who is not Anatoly, he would be 100% on telling you, you need two years for your body to adapt and adjust to lifting weight.
Bs lol i started lifting weight in November 2022 and my PR benching was 60kg now it’ 110kg. I started squats back in January and my PR was also 60 now it’s 140kg. I started barbell curls November at 15kg and now my PR is 52kg. It’s all about mindset, diet and discipline. Mind you this all happened within 6 months of gyming.
Keep it coming man! I've been going through a bad moment at this point of my life and I find some inspiration in your videos to hit the weights once again. Greetings from Mexico. 🇲🇽
THE DEFINITION OF LOVE: "Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. 3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; 4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope: 5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. 6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. 10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. 11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement." Romans 5:1-11.
Владимир, я все твои пранки смотрю, не пропускаю ни одного) ваще кайфую от твоих видео, от реакций людей, от твоих силовых возможностей! Ты делаешь это лучше всех!!))
Anatoly va a cambiar la percepción de lo que es un buen cuerpo de gimnasio, se viene la tendencia de cuerpos fuertes naturales, gracias Anatoly por servirnos de inspiración con tu súper poder.
I don't work out, can someone please explain to me how someone with small muscles can lift more weight then someone with big muscles... I don't understand the physics or science! What's the secret?
I need you and your training and just positive views and push towards positive mental health as well as physical! I've been clean from drugs and alcohol for more than 2 years now and I have been struggling finding me again since. Your videos inspire me and make me want to do better. I wish I could have you as a trainer for real! Ty for being and doing you always!!
I very much respect those (you included) who have/continue to overcome and bounce back. Physical stuff is good and healthy, but what really will get you to 'find me' is knowing God. I'm Catholic, and I take great comfort in the fact that God IS love (as in he is willing to sacrifice for me) and doesn't need me at all-yet here I am and he has to will for me to exist at any given moment! Peace to you. If you ever want to check out Catholicism, ask a priest at your local Catholic church, get a Bible (Ignatius study Bible has lots of good footnotes explaining things in light of centuries of study), check out the catechism of the Catholic church, etc. If you ask God to lead you to the truth he will always show you!
Your acting is exceptional, such a great comedian! You make such a likeable character. And those dimples when you smile wow. 🤩 not to mention you are incredibly strong and fantastic at lifting weights, plus all the calisthenics. I look forward to these hilarious videos.
Anatoly, you are such a lovely soul. I don’t power lift and Sony even know how your video appeared but I’m glad it did. I think all the trainers are so kind with your unrealistic goal of 2 weeks 😂😂. What impresses me the most is the fact that you, sir, speak very good English, especially in the short time you’ve had. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world and showing the world that things are not always what they seem. A great lesson learned is never to pass judgement but rather encourage, love and help your neighbor. Peace be with you.
This is absolutely HILARIOUS !!!! and respect to the fact that after all that heavy training making him super strong, he turned to a positive minded man that can put a smile into our faces :) :) :)
It's the all natural asteroids his grandpa gives him from the farm. They create natural strength, without the side effects of drugs or some of the other substances some people use!
Most people in these videos make a couple of steps back whenever Anatoly lifts the weights. This is a sign of fear! They are so surprised with what they see, that their instincts tell them to keep a distance! Amazing videos.
The Trainer with the black cap is just so patient and friendly so special when you are a novice and uncomfortable about entering a gym let alone training .
What I don’t understand is how you’ve trained really hard for so many years and lift the sheer weight you do, but you haven’t bulked up like these dudes at the gym that look like the hulk. I just started watching your videos and I think you’re freaking amazing. Thank you.
@@LiberatedMind1it’s not that, he’s aim is strength training which is 1-6 reps 2 he’s genes 3 quite possibly he is natural If he’s trying to stay in a specific weight range for powerlifting competition it would not be that significant for he’s appearance like fighters for example
Vladimir Shmondenko, alter ego Anatoly, makes me laugh every time. It's great watching people's reactions when they see him lift his 'dream' weight after just a few short moments of training. I can't decide which character of his I like the most. Having a cleaner mop around me whilst training would probably wind me up, but it is so funny to watch him simply move the weights out of the way to dust, or be a first time nerdy trainee, complete with his favourite sandals and Spiderman rucksack, or be disguised as a frail looking old man and seemingly, without any effort, lift an impossible weight for such an unlikely person. I think pretending to be a trainer is my favourite, especially as he tries to convince everyone he is the best trainer in the world and offers to demonstrate his prowess with a pink elastic stretch band. Anatoly is hilarious to watch and listen to. I want a trainer like him. When he points out everyone's mistakes and makes suggestions like, not enough 'squeeze back. His' advice and choice of handbag for a gym bag for holding his portfolio and his home made eggs give me the giggles every time. Vladimir is extremely motivational as well as being a genius comedian. 😂 He makes me want to join a gym. Every Gym should have an Anatoly!
It's amazing watching your videos. I'm almost 60 and now want to get fit watching you. I'd like the strength without too much bulk. It's never too late to start I say. Anyhow, thanks for the inspiring videos! 👍
Yeah, of course I subscribed !! Anatoly, you're a BEAST !! I'm 55 and have pretty much the same build as you. Been that way for all of my life and I'd never trade it for anything. Nothing commands more respect from a normal sized looking man with incredible strength. While I'll never be as strong as you (hell, I'm 55yrs old bro....lol), my daily routine is jogging down the beach towing 30lbs of chain for 4 miles. The only thing I worry for you is, an injury to a muscle or tendon. Please take good care of yourself and enjoy the moment. You Sir, are a rock star !!
Man, you don't always need huge muscles to lift that kind of weight. Anatoli is the best example of this, and many people can't handle it when they see him. He's skinny and not as muscular as others, yet he can lift weights so easily. Love you Anatoli Man ❤
You should actually ask them for technique tips and then progressively "improve" within one session. Makes it more believable and i think they'd be even more shocked
Wow 🤩 your videos not only hilarious 😆 but mad inspirational as well! I just started training at 40 but you help me to keep pushing hard everyday brother
I had a problem going to the gym I was afraid of going to it, and now after 1-2 Videos from Anatoly I like the gym and tomorrow I go to train. I have watched so many motivational videos, and how I can fight against my fear, not even one had helped me, and now after I see so many good people and reactions it just opens my mind :D. If anyone has any friend who is afraid of it just share with him 1-2 Anatolys videos :D
My first time checking on this Channel but trust me, the humor that comes with this guy's pranking skills took my thumb finger to the subscription key. Nice content and much love bro❤️🇰🇪✌️
05:26 Anatoly: "Trainer, Listen! No body believing you... You lost again and again and again!... The lights are cut off but you still are looking at your dream, reviewing it everyday and say to yourself it's not over! until I win!!!" So Motivational 💪👊😎
Смех Анатолия такой очаровательный. И все эти большие парни выглядят ничтожно по сравнению с ним 😂 как будто они ничто 😂 Вот что значит природная сила. Анатолий настоящий супермен. Класс
@@ОлександрЛюлька-п5эas he is professional powerlifter, it's easy to google his nationality. He is Ukrainian. There is many videos with him from american gyms, so he is American?

The reactions of the people in the gym, I only can imagine how they feel,they lift their maximum,and then the cleaner comes and he can do more and so easy.
It made my day.
The woman in 6:36 knew all along. While she was watching and thinking like "Girl, don't worry about him. He can take it" I like how patient she was in that video so that she wouldn't ruin Anatoly's prank for the woman trainer.
I know, right! She was a good sport! ❤
И большое ей за это благодарность и уважение!❤
"Nobody believe in You" again and again had me laugh so much😂😂. You are the Ultimate Hulk🎩😎
I feel for the trainers as he goes to lift the weights. I’d be freaking out like there’s no way I don’t end up in the news tomorrow after this dude breaks his neck 😆
Right I wonder this too, it seems like he convinces the trainers the weight is for a picture and that he won’t actually lift the weights and then lifts them when they don’t expect it. But not every time, it makes me wonder why the trainers allow him to make these attempts. I guess he leaves them no option other than forcefully stopping him.
@@brandonguild1666 tbh I think this is just fake and for entertainment purposes only, there’s no way this is real, you don’t just randomly have a high resolution camera zooming back and fourth like logically where the fuck would it be placed for these people not to realise. So they are all I think just actors tbh, all of this seems too sketchy to be true but really fun to watch nonetheless 😂
@@justend9760
It's not that hard to place some cameras these days mate.
Ya people that didn’t know lifting would def hurt themselves trying this kinda weight.
@@justend9760, yup, much more content than people realize is made like this. Scenario -> actors -> video. The goal is just to make more money than you spend filming.
...it's always satisfying to see the "awe" in their faces everytime Anatoly shows them what he's really capable of 😁
I think too many people after watching your videos want to do powerlifting 💪
Such an Inspiration bro
Not only strength, but a good sense of humor and actor, congrat!!
This guy is way too god. "Im good with heavy weight but not with small weight"😂😂😂😂😂
He does not have STABILIZATION for small weight.
Classic 😂
I've been struggling with small weights all this time, maybe I should just 10x the weight
@@antonitobendrito2243 😂😂😂
Even after he reveals it's a prank everyone is still wondering how he lifted it 😂
I bet the guy who tried a bench when he was saying "maybe it's plastic" felt like a total pu*** after seeing a guy half his size knock out lifts with ease 😂
@@since1876, that's the thing: even being in his shape, the weight he lifts is incredible for his size. I can easily lift the weight he does... but I am also WAY bigger than him. Yeah, even after it's discovered he is an obviously trained lifter, it's still mind-blowing to see someone his size lift that much weight, regardless.
@@johndeeregreen4592 right? The prank part is great but the fact he puts these weights up so easily while only weighing about 180lbs is incredible
@@johndeeregreen4592 I've never lifted weights before. I'm unemployed right now and make money by making and selling things. It's kind of enough to survive on, but I really need to find real work so I can afford a gym membership. Last time I could have afforded it, I was too intimidated by all the options to want to even go.
Then, after an injury, I started doing physical therapy and now my body is stronger than it ever was, thanks to all the exercises that I'd never done but am now doing. I also now realize it's not rocket science, go to the gym and do whatever feels good and do it until you're tired. And then do one more set. Make sure nothing ever hurts in a bad way. Everyone who works there will be happy to show you the right way to use a machine! And finding exercise routines is as simple as searching Google or using the openai chat bot or whatever.
But I bet when I can afford to do it, I'll be able to put up a lot of weight. I'm 6'6" and 316ish, so I'd imagine that if I actually started working to build muscle, I'd be able to keep up with lots of people. But I'm sure that without a couple decades of intense training like this guy already has, I don't stand a chance at putting up the weight to bodyweight ratio this man can do....he's got some interesting genetics and probably some excellent personal trainers that he's worked with over the years.
He is russian one of the Putin's followers
I used to watch you before but never got your channel. Finally I found you. Wow, amazing. You are blessed brother. You are truly talented.
Being humble even with this sort of confidence and physique is the unique quality you carry.
Dude is funny and strong and a inspiration.. Anatoly a legend already 💪
Everyone take note, the first guy is what a trainer should be. He is firm, fair and willing to give a serious reality check to his client. No fuss, no mess. Anyone who is not Anatoly, he would be 100% on telling you, you need two years for your body to adapt and adjust to lifting weight.
Bs lol i started lifting weight in November 2022 and my PR benching was 60kg now it’ 110kg. I started squats back in January and my PR was also 60 now it’s 140kg. I started barbell curls November at 15kg and now my PR is 52kg. It’s all about mindset, diet and discipline. Mind you this all happened within 6 months of gyming.
@@therealzucci Good for you man, keep going. Hope you had a trainer half as good as this guy. Stay motivated.
@@therealzucci how tall are you? Not as big of an achievement if you're a 6'4" Icelander
@@mickeymickey9914 lol I’m 5,85 and weigh 80kg
@@loganblackwood2922 thanks but I didn’t use any trainer but I got some advice
Keep it coming man! I've been going through a bad moment at this point of my life and I find some inspiration in your videos to hit the weights once again.
Greetings from Mexico. 🇲🇽
You and me both. it's nice to laugh for a bit and getting inspired to hit prs, Instead of reflecting on my shit life.

Nothing lasts forever: happiness, sadness, depression. You’ll get there.
THE DEFINITION OF LOVE:
"Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. 3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; 4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope: 5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. 6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. 10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. 11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement." Romans 5:1-11.
Love the trainers how they're very nice and respectful.
Dude, this had me creasing. Also props to the trainers for being good sports and showing some real concern.
Does creasing mean u have to poo? Like crowning, touching fabric, prairie doggin?
@@justinwiedemann5400 nah bro, means doubled over laughing, you're literally creasing yourself, must be a UK thing.
@@gavinwilson2071 ahh gotcha lol
He is russian, bringer of russian peace like the one in Ukraine
@@gavinwilson2071 def a uk thing💀 i have never heard anybody say creasing
I can't get enough of these videos, they are all hilarious. Keep giving us more!
Владимир, я все твои пранки смотрю, не пропускаю ни одного) ваще кайфую от твоих видео, от реакций людей, от твоих силовых возможностей! Ты делаешь это лучше всех!!))
He literally learns the technique, does one rep and turns around and says I think I’m ready for big weight 😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂
Anatoly va a cambiar la percepción de lo que es un buen cuerpo de gimnasio, se viene la tendencia de cuerpos fuertes naturales, gracias Anatoly por servirnos de inspiración con tu súper poder.
this dude is so lean yet so fkn strong. he’s freakishly strong.
Strength training is anything maxing your lift under 5 reps. It builds only strength and not size
roid free
He gets his strength from all the karma and winning.
I don't work out, can someone please explain to me how someone with small muscles can lift more weight then someone with big muscles... I don't understand the physics or science! What's the secret?
@@thetruepatriot7733 I think Flintstones vitamins. Caveman stenf.
You're a humble person. Some people pretend to be humble, but you are one really.
Hey it is very very hard and grueling to be humble.!!😂
I need you and your training and just positive views and push towards positive mental health as well as physical! I've been clean from drugs and alcohol for more than 2 years now and I have been struggling finding me again since. Your videos inspire me and make me want to do better. I wish I could have you as a trainer for real! Ty for being and doing you always!!
I very much respect those (you included) who have/continue to overcome and bounce back. Physical stuff is good and healthy, but what really will get you to 'find me' is knowing God. I'm Catholic, and I take great comfort in the fact that God IS love (as in he is willing to sacrifice for me) and doesn't need me at all-yet here I am and he has to will for me to exist at any given moment! Peace to you. If you ever want to check out Catholicism, ask a priest at your local Catholic church, get a Bible (Ignatius study Bible has lots of good footnotes explaining things in light of centuries of study), check out the catechism of the Catholic church, etc. If you ask God to lead you to the truth he will always show you!
Only Anatoly Can Bring Peace In The World
Ohh really? How ?
true
Jesus has entered the chat
I thought all Ukrainian men of fighting age have been drafted? Why isn't he fighting Russia?
@@robr7200 Yes, I just asked him that (see above)...unless he already explained, so maybe we missed that?

Your acting is exceptional, such a great comedian! You make such a likeable character. And those dimples when you smile wow. 🤩 not to mention you are incredibly strong and fantastic at lifting weights, plus all the calisthenics. I look forward to these hilarious videos.
Dude is so strong. Power to weight ratio is crazy
Yeah, I was surprised he only weights about 170lbs and can bench and squat 4x his bodyweight.
Anatoly, you are such a lovely soul. I don’t power lift and Sony even know how your video appeared but I’m glad it did.
I think all the trainers are so kind with your unrealistic goal of 2 weeks 😂😂.
What impresses me the most is the fact that you, sir, speak very good English, especially in the short time you’ve had. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world and showing the world that things are not always what they seem. A great lesson learned is never to pass judgement but rather encourage, love and help your neighbor. Peace be with you.
This is absolutely HILARIOUS !!!! and respect to the fact that after all that heavy training making him super strong, he turned to a positive minded man that can put a smile into our faces :) :) :)
It's the all natural asteroids his grandpa gives him from the farm. They create natural strength, without the side effects of drugs or some of the other substances some people use!
Probably because he doesn't use steroids.
I'm old and never liked gym but this guy makes me rethink 👍
none of that is actually true, the weights are mostly faked in these videos. just an fyi
@@drrydog Shut it, female.
13:04 "You can take little bit " proceed to eat a moutful or strange leafs xD got me dying

Анатолий, спасибо за улыбку на моём лице, которая появляется, когда смотрю твои розыгрыши. :)
Congrats to 1 million subscribers bro! you earned every single one of them 🙏💪
Original chanel www.youtube.com/@shmondenko/videos
i am just one of them, but yes, very well deserved.
Tu é o cara!!! Saudações do Brasil. U are the best!!! Congratolations from Brazil.
Most people in these videos make a couple of steps back whenever Anatoly lifts the weights. This is a sign of fear! They are so surprised with what they see, that their instincts tell them to keep a distance! Amazing videos.
The Trainer with the black cap is just so patient and friendly so special when you are a novice and uncomfortable about entering a gym let alone training .
One of the best and most inspiring pranks to hit the internet is all of the world's history. Big fan! Congrats on all your subs!
What I don’t understand is how you’ve trained really hard for so many years and lift the sheer weight you do, but you haven’t bulked up like these dudes at the gym that look like the hulk.
I just started watching your videos and I think you’re freaking amazing. Thank you.
He probably stays within a weight bracket on purpose.
@@LiberatedMind1it’s not that, he’s aim is strength training which is 1-6 reps 2 he’s genes 3 quite possibly he is natural If he’s trying to stay in a specific weight range for powerlifting competition it would not be that significant for he’s appearance like fighters for example
@@mariosassiotis2697 All true, but these athletes do also try to stay within weight brackets, or their whole regime is derailed.
@@LiberatedMind1 yeah I agree it’s just that number is way lower than a martial artist plus the weight them in competition day
You dont have to be big to be very strong
02:47 What are you looking at bro???!! 😂
Her ass
Two wonderfull eyes😂😂😂😂
Vladimir Shmondenko, alter ego Anatoly, makes me laugh every time. It's great watching people's reactions when they see him lift his 'dream' weight after just a few short moments of training.
I can't decide which character of his I like the most.
Having a cleaner mop around me whilst training would probably wind me up, but it is so funny to watch him simply move the weights out of the way to dust, or be a first time nerdy trainee, complete with his favourite sandals and Spiderman rucksack, or be disguised as a frail looking old man and seemingly, without any effort, lift an impossible weight for such an unlikely person.
I think pretending to be a trainer is my favourite, especially as he tries to convince everyone he is the best trainer in the world and offers to demonstrate his prowess with a pink elastic stretch band. Anatoly is hilarious to watch and listen to. I want a trainer like him. When he points out everyone's mistakes and makes suggestions like, not enough 'squeeze back. His' advice and choice of handbag for a gym bag for holding his portfolio and his home made eggs give me the giggles every time. Vladimir is extremely motivational as well as being a genius comedian. 😂 He makes me want to join a gym. Every Gym should have an Anatoly!
Anatoly is the superhero we need, but don’t deserve!
It's amazing watching your videos. I'm almost 60 and now want to get fit watching you. I'd like the strength without too much bulk. It's never too late to start I say. Anyhow, thanks for the inspiring videos! 👍
Ride on king
He is russian
Yes but u need to be able to atleast walk to gym .....
Yeah, of course I subscribed !! Anatoly, you're a BEAST !! I'm 55 and have pretty much the same build as you. Been that way for all of my life and I'd never trade it for anything. Nothing commands more respect from a normal sized looking man with incredible strength. While I'll never be as strong as you (hell, I'm 55yrs old bro....lol), my daily routine is jogging down the beach towing 30lbs of chain for 4 miles. The only thing I worry for you is, an injury to a muscle or tendon. Please take good care of yourself and enjoy the moment. You Sir, are a rock star !!
none of that is actually true, the weights are mostly faked in these videos. just an fyi
@@drrydog He is not using fake weights.
Man, you don't always need huge muscles to lift that kind of weight. Anatoli is the best example of this, and many people can't handle it when they see him. He's skinny and not as muscular as others, yet he can lift weights so easily.
Love you Anatoli Man ❤
You should actually ask them for technique tips and then progressively "improve" within one session. Makes it more believable and i think they'd be even more shocked
Man I get so much motivation from your videos.. ngl you got me into powerlifting and pushing myself every time I’m in the gym!! Love from Canada 🇨🇦🇨🇦
He is so amazing right! Maybe if we're lucky one day, he will come to Canada. :)
Wow 🤩 your videos not only hilarious 😆 but mad inspirational as well! I just started training at 40 but you help me to keep pushing hard everyday brother
Respect, volume doesn't mean force. Love this philosopy. Good eat, humour, and respect your body you'll be strong enough for anything!
I had a problem going to the gym I was afraid of going to it, and now after 1-2 Videos from Anatoly I like the gym and tomorrow I go to train. I have watched so many motivational videos, and how I can fight against my fear, not even one had helped me, and now after I see so many good people and reactions it just opens my mind :D. If anyone has any friend who is afraid of it just share with him 1-2 Anatolys videos :D
Well done man! Get after it
My first time checking on this Channel but trust me, the humor that comes with this guy's pranking skills took my thumb finger to the subscription key. Nice content and much love bro❤️🇰🇪✌️
Anatoly, making folks question reality for fun. Awesome content.
"until i win" omg i cant stip laughing 😂😂😂😂😂
We need more people like Vladimir in this world...
05:26 Anatoly: "Trainer, Listen! No body believing you... You lost again and again and again!... The lights are cut off but you still are looking at your dream, reviewing it everyday and say to yourself it's not over! until I win!!!"
So Motivational 💪👊😎
love watching this guy, hes amazing, funny, strong obviously, and i am out of adjectives
These gyms have excellent staff great bunch of people.luv the videos and the laugh.❤
