Really cool that he keeps working while taking care of his child. He even has an area for the children. Probably really cool to see your dad work and workout.
@@mitchellhooperstrongmanAre you stupid or something sits obvious that the baby is taking care of him. How do you think he knows so much. It's the baby telling him ratatouille style
I'd agree but then 90% of what's available is still influencer regurgitate. People are still being bombarded by diarrhoea sleet. But I guess it's easier to find if you're motivated.
So crazy that this guy is the strongest man. To be his size and to be in the same ranks of Brian Shaw, Thore, and Eddie Hall is incredible. He's not small by all means, but to beat Brian Shaw at his size is incredibly impressive.
Wow! This just goes to show that there is always something new to learn. The fact that The KOT guy could make The WSM rep to failure and get winded is a testament to his methods of strength training! I'm impressed so much by both these guys!!!
It is just such a joy when you see two Giants in two different sections of the world of athletes collaborating. Bringing more TRUE knowledge to the world. I myself have benefitted amazingly from @kneesovertoesguy I used to do high-end sports as a teenager. Got injured and never came back from that and but today I'm stronger than I ever was at the age of 38.
Every time I open RUclips you are doing something cool and noteworthy in a Collab. You're really delivering on the things you said when you won world's, amazing!
I did about 8 weeks of bens program. Really helped my hip and knee pain i was getting while squatting. Hope you sprinkle some of his stuff in. I now sled for 10 minutes before every lower body workout as my warm up 💪
Seeing that deadlift last year just before they announced you to be in WSM as a sub and winning this year, I love how you're expanding your content. Thanks for repping Canada on the world stage!
@@mitchellhooperstrongman Perhaps overnight isn't the right choice of words, but with the amazing finishes in the classic and worlds, the channel has gotten a lot more exposure! Either way, I'm glad I found the channel and I appreciate all the work (editor included) you all put in!
These videos really come right on time. Right as I am going for Powerlifting training after 9-10 years of bodybuilding style training. Damn these will help me tremendously for building up my lifts. You're awesome dude! Really looking forward seeing your growth the coming years. Keep it up;
lower ab building is why i started to do that kind of reverse squat band workout, but its good to see it has other benefits too which would explain some gains I've had
Can you maybe give an update on your ankle situation? Have you implemented something new into you routine to work on it? Great video thx for the content
Love your work Mitch! Great to see you working with both Squat University and Knees Over Toes as they are constantly portrayed as different/opposing online but I believe they both have great value to add. Awesome to see someone as successful as yourself willing to meet new people, genuinely curious to learn and not being afraid to ask the questions we all want answers to like you did here with Ben. Please keep it up mate, great example of being a top bloke 👏💪
Mitchell I've been a huge fan of Ben Patrick AND you for a while and can't tell you how excited I was to see this pop up on my feed. Not too often this much class is in the same room. Much respect
Hugely rooting for Michell to hit it big, both in his competitive career and his RUclips career... just commenting for algorithm! This is awesome content top to bottom
I love how you always challenge the people in your videos. Makes it far more interesting than most of the fitness content on youtube. Reminds me of conversations I've had as a coach with Jeremy Hamilton (world record setting powerlifter). E.g. Whenever I try to talk science with him he doesn't (usually) believe it applies to him. How can the average result of a group of intermediates apply to the number one? It makes it more fulfilling as a coach to make progress with an athlete when they're both smart AND elite. It's even more fun when it's not me being questioned all the time haha.
I think the beautiful thing about knees over toes guy or brett contreras or squat university is just the simplicity of it all. You generally don't need ice baths, stim, supps. It seems to be more about moving properly through full ranges of motion, loading appropriately, eating, and sleeping. Nothing cutting edge or groundbreaking which i find nice.
5:00 you cannot really build muscle tissue for your ankles area. but the tendon will become more resilient with such an exercise the stretching effect due to the weight will also strengthen this tendon area. another thing especially in strongmen is when they train with a frame or other weight carry exersise. they often do not check on walking optimal. you can walk in 2 ways forward: one is by putting the rear of the foot first on the ground and then roll into the toes. the other is by putting the toes first on the ground and roll into the rear section from there. what will help to unload your spine from a lot of stress compared to the first option. try it out yourself with weight to carry around. and you will feel the difference at this specific ankle area as well in stress it has put on. as big as your muscles may be. the tendons to your feet are always quite narrow compared to that. strongmen workouts putting a lot of stress on that area in general. so make sure to give them enough room to regenerate from the stress. by making sure to also stretch your feet occasionally without any weight added. and rotating them in the air in every possible direction. this also strengthens the tendons a lot. especially if that kind of movement is most of the time not done. you can also use your hands to stretch your feet in all possible directions with a bit of force if you want. this adds to further strengthen them and getting used to specific angles better when under stress from the heavy loads you carry. besides of that. keep up the good work and i wish you well success furtheron.
Mitch learning from Knees Over Toes Guy will lead to Strongman becoming boring when he's taking his 10th WSM title in a row 😂 I think the combination of Ben and Mitch's knowledge would make for an incredible book on avoiding/recovering injuries!
I try to sled some items backwards during my work and also train the split lunge regularly and notice a huge imlrovement in running and squatting and going up and down stairs. Pretty much pain free.
I've been trying to get into knees over toes stuff lately myself. Theres just something wrong with my left knee somewhere in the chain and I cant figure out what. I'm hoping with this sort of training my issue will work itself out. Also you say people wont think your a strongman. but you're still massive VS your random guy on the street haha. So I'm looking forward to seeing what people say.
Would love to see you do more with Ben, Mitch. Hell, i'd really love to see both of you do some content together, create some kind of mobility-enhancing workout geared towards strongmen, to improve all their fundamentals--like those ankle lifts you were doing at 4:35.
Hey big man I just found your channel within this last month, just great stuff here! If you keep making content like this, or at least re-visit these same creator's/Athletes for updates on what they've learned over the last year, no way that your channel won't pick up another 100K Subs over the next year. Great Content, Thank You Moose! #Strongman #MitchellHooper #Moose
Good that you are doing youtube. If you want to make money being a strongman you have to get as much media as possible and MILK IT! Wont be a strongman forever. But you're media content can.
Mitchell, is it possible to train heavy and train for an ultra marathons/ironman? In some of your previous videos, you've mentioned that you will eventually go to triathlons.

bro been banging out the content lately mad props what a beast athlete
Doing our best, glad you’re enjoying it 💪
I love how willing to learn this guy is. He's also smart with it. True world champ stance.
You don’t know what you don’t know 👀
@@mitchellhooperstrongmanand no such thing as a stupid question
Ben honoring his role as father before coach which is respectable.
Mitchell is becoming my favorite strongman to follow on youtube, absolutely love the vide and the content. He truly is a sportsman !
I appreciate that! 💪💪
You're an inspiration! Knees over toes guy is such a game changer, especially for me that has been suffering with a bad knee all my life.
Love to hear it 💪
So crazy that this guy is the strongest man. To be his size and to be in the same ranks of Brian Shaw, Thore, and Eddie Hall is incredible. He's not small by all means, but to beat Brian Shaw at his size is incredibly impressive.
Would love to see a collab with Dr Aaron Horschig from Squat University. That dude has helped me loads with my training and mobility issues.
This is one of the most informative, accurate no-bro-science real-science videos on youtube.
Glad it was helpful!

Adding some of his input to your (already) incredible ability... yea man.
Love your videos and your true happiness in what you are doing. Don’t see that too much any more in today’s life.
Just found this channel, crazy ur a strongman champ and look 100lbs under prime Thor or Shaw.. keep going you athletes are mesmerizing
Really enjoyed this episode. My background's physio and I'm well into the 'strengthening is (almost) always the answer' camp
Wonderful content. Thank you, Michael Cooper.
😉😉
Love to see you training with kneesovertoesguy. after including his workouts, ive improved my mobilty and strength significantly.
Love to hear it 💪
Very interesting. I have trying to increase ankle mobility for two years. Gona try these!!
Would highly recommend!
I think these 2 gentlemen together would help everybody. Good to see these exercises. We all need ankle mobility. I think!
Bet that hurt the next morning getting out of bed 😂. Seriously though thanks for posting these videos helping us old crocs learn more 💪😎
These guys are revolutionaries.

Love to hear it 💪
brilliant collab
All these collaborations... you are an excellent ambassador for this sport, sir!
Are you open to suggestions regarding other youtubers to collab with?
Geez Coop from Garage Gym reviews has bulked up a bit 😂.
You seem like a genuine nice guy Mitchell. I’m keen to start following your career.
Great content mitch!!!
this is totally excellent.
💪💪
This was very informative and useful!
Glad it was helpful! 💪
Loving the RUclips content blitzkrieg. Keep it up
Glad you enjoy it!
Wow! Awesome sled runs!
Impeccable!
Would love to see you do some full workouts with him
Dude, you are all over the place in your quest for YT excellence. Will you collab with Larry King, Liver King, Jujimufu and Mike O Hearn next?
@2:04 - wow look at the difference in angle range of motion between right and left while sledding! I’m sure a Tib bar is coming…
Nice video. I would be interested to hear how much of Ben's stuff you've incorporated into your training what impact you feel it has had.
Really good content man.
The king collab two people who’s goal is to help as many people as possible with exercise
One step at a time 🚀
Did Loz recommend Ben Patrick?
Thank you for showing me all the people i need to fallow lol

Knees over toes guy except when they're over your head
Wow Mitchell is speed running all RUclips collabs possible.
Mitch learning from Knees Over Toes Guy will lead to Strongman becoming boring when he's taking his 10th WSM title in a row 😂 I think the combination of Ben and Mitch's knowledge would make for an incredible book on avoiding/recovering injuries!
I try to sled some items backwards during my work and also train the split lunge regularly and notice a huge imlrovement in running and squatting and going up and down stairs. Pretty much pain free.
Would you keep doing these exercises ? If so I cant wait to see your progress!!
Yes of course!
The steady improvement arc is here
Feel that "reverse squat" will be a game changer for Moose; which considering he's already #1 quite comfortably that's a scary proposition.
I've been trying to get into knees over toes stuff lately myself. Theres just something wrong with my left knee somewhere in the chain and I cant figure out what. I'm hoping with this sort of training my issue will work itself out.
Also you say people wont think your a strongman. but you're still massive VS your random guy on the street haha. So I'm looking forward to seeing what people say.

Wow, Ben on Mitch's channel xD
I wonder if we'll see Mitch with SquatUniversity at some point!
I’ve made a reel with Squat U
Awesome
I've been looking for that tibialis rig since I used one in the late 90's - could you please tell me what is it called / who sells them?
Another Brian Shaw in the making,helpfull and polite
By the end of this year

Yay!
Guy in the back at 2:37 looks like Snake from the Vinland Saga.
This 60 year old woman really enjoyed this one. ❤
Glad you enjoyed it
content over knees guys great job
dam i broke tib/fib twice on right leg them toe lifts would kill me, but since i have gotten the steel out it feels much better after 20 years
Really interesting to see a giant guy like himself struggling with these “simple” movements. I need to add all of these to my sessions
Kepp going man, your videos are amazing. Colab after colab.
Happy to hear, Fabian has been putting in work 😴
Does these corrections affect your strength in any way? Would imagine that short term the lifts would be harder due to less tension?
Been doing some sledding lately and really thinking about implementing more
Highly recommend!
@@mitchellhooperstrongman my coach is giving me crossover sled pulls for adductor work but I’m gonna ask for some push/pull stuff soon.
You looked like you hit fatigue quicker on the reverse squat than on the Tom Platz challenge. Hip flexor work is no joke!
Tough 😤😤
The smartest strongman - trains the smartest - and surrounds himself with the smartest people
Good that you are doing youtube. If you want to make money being a strongman you have to get as much media as possible and MILK IT! Wont be a strongman forever. But you're media content can.
Is this guy's accent a Canadian accent? Wikipedia says he's just Canadian, but my ear says otherwise.
Can we still get “good enough everyday” t shirts
Mitchell, is it possible to train heavy and train for an ultra marathons/ironman? In some of your previous videos, you've mentioned that you will eventually go to triathlons.
It’s important to train for the thing you’re trying to do. That being said, have fun with it and do what you enjoy 💪
