    You should do a video on all the types of equipment used in Strongman to reference when talking about suits, briefs, figure 8 straps ect. I think it could be cool, especially for new fans of the sport who are unfamiliar with all the terms. You could even throw in Loz's bopping stick, lol
    I gave this some more thought and categories like this could make it even easier:
    Wearables: suit, briefs, soft belt, hard belt, sleeves, straps, figure 8
    Use-ables: chalk, tacky, tacky towel, smelling salts
    Bars: standard, deadlift, elephant, hummer tire, silver dollar, axle
    Stones: atlas, castle, natural, Dinnie, Husafell
    Specialized equipment: Conan's circle, Wheel of Pain, log, hitching post, car walk
    Specialized lifts: Zercher, split jerk, strict press, viper press, duck walk
    Rules: down signal, countback, calibrated plates
    Recovery: massage gun, cold tub, cryo chamber, hyperbolic chamber, cupping

    What's the rule about hand coverage on the bar for the Strongman Deadlift competition? @4:05 - Hicks is obviously not holding the bar with his hands in this video. I remember Uncle Loz not liking the Figure 8 straps because you can lock youself onto the bar & have barely the fingertips touching the bar while deadlifting with them.

    • @EllisThings
      @EllisThings Месяц назад +2

    Mr Loz, with the people that have a weaker lockout would you program rack pulls for them? To get some discipline at the end of the pull without the stress of doing full reps. Maybe even use it as an overload?

    2:02 - main criticism toward's Mitch's log press is faking the lockout by bending the whole body back and keeping the log above the chest. I know Mitch is friend and protegee of yours but it's not split jerking what is the problem here.

It tracks though, he seems to have been focusing on his work capacity this year and his performance at his traditionally poor endurance/speed events (such as Conan’s wheel and yoke) suggests he’s carrying a lot less useless tissue.

    If anyone ever doubts how much harder a stiff bar is to a deadlift bar and specially to a very flexible "noodle" bar, bear in mind the all-time world record in any weight class for a stiff bar deadlift is Jesús Olivares with 410 kg / 904 lbs.

      @antoniocenteno1483 Месяц назад +2

      Eh... Not exactly. If you go to strongman, Eddie Hall Pulled 472.5KG on the long stiff bar in WSM'.
      Also, the drumroll deadlift is done on a stiff bar and the record is 445 also by Eddie and Brian Shaw.
      Plus, they become different lifts and can suit different atlethes
      Ivan Makarov used a stiff bar in preparation for his 500KG attempt at 20' or 21' and he successfully pulled 492KG, he've never replicated that in Cómp and his official PB is 9KG lighter on a deadlift bar.
      The Elephant Bar has as much give too and is harder to pull than a deadlift bar.
      The only point is the noodle or Kabuki bar, that shit bends to your knees before even starting the lift lmao.

  • @TheSledge77

    Did Lucas Hatton have rubber bands under the weights that he was lifting? If so, that, to me is cheating because he would be using them on the rebound to help him lift the squat.

    Mitch: He is looking exactly how'd you expect to look at him, just going berserker on it and you can tell he means bussines.
    Tom: Bro is like... "I'm gonna do the manhood's stones, win, if Thor takes it though, so be it, i finished my 2024 campaign two months ago"
    Hicks: Definetly getting into PR terrotory. Loz is right, his 431 for reps is impressive, but is meant to look a bit better if you chase 500+, but the man definetly is grtting closer.
    Thor: He is looking like he already has 3 events in the bag... Not peaked, and a 2nd on stones. OHP is gonna be it, but he is quickly improving that too, sonit seems like damage control can be there on the day.
