Thor's deadlift was INSANE. Went 45lbs heavier than he needed to and still made it look effortless.
Made a statement. A real warrior.
He is the static strength king atm and he only needed a few months.. Insanity
He needed to go that heavy, so Bobby wouldn't make a second attempt.
@@AndreRiikonen Not to take away anything from him, but he did train squats and deadlifts to break the powerlifting record.
@@TL13579training and doing aint the same
Thors deadlift looks back to form. That 1006 lbs was effortless looking.
Bro he pulled a thousand pounds like it was a warmup set.... I genuinely believe that we are gonna see a 505KG + deadlift this year.
@@scottkain8977big difference 505kg
@@vaskodimoski5690 elephant bar & no-gear also make a big difference. All the lifters on stage were substantially lower than their normal deadlift (with gear) pulls. Both of those variables make it more difficult to pull the weight.
Based on how Thor pulled that 1006lbs, I can't see him not pulling 505KG with a normal bar while wearing gear.
@vaskodimoski5690 this pull was suitless and like a speed rep. It's not like he struggled at all and people are saying if he can do 1000 he's close to 1100. Put a suit on him and watch what happens, hell he'll probably get close on the raw one rep max if he does the Shaw classic.
@RageDaug hopefully he will do it .
Hopefully during a competition this time
Day 1 BTS on Day 1?!?!? We appreciate you more than you know Auntie Liz!
Yes… i agree… I was as excited to get a picture with Auntie Liz as I was with Uncle Loz. She was surprised… I could not understand why..
Truly the goat
A smiling Mateusz. So lovely to see. ❤
Bro he pulled a thousand pounds like it was a warmup set.... I genuinely believe that we are gonna see a 505KG + deadlift this year.
I dont bc hes not gonna attempt it
Where? Is anybody offering a big payday to do it outside of giants live?
Maybe not this year but we definitely gon see it
Needs to be $505,000 then he’d do it
So *that's* what a 1006lbs deadlift looks like?! 😅
Thors deadlift looked ridiculously easy.
Mitch’s improvement is absolutely incredible. Every competition he jumps leaps and bounds in every event but most importantly events that would finish middle of the pack at events before.
Mitch is one of the best all rounders of all time already, if he keeps at it he still has a chance to go down as a GOAT
Hooper Is a Hyper Moose! I only heard about them in the old viking legends!🤪♥️🐻
Thors deadlift gave me goosebumps, fantastic evening.
Thor looks like he might be able to hit 505 now. 😲
without a suit too. He defo got it in the bag
He needs to do it in one of these competitions for sure. Shaw classic would be perfect for that.
Thanks to Liz for the quick video, and I must say I was missing @BigLozOfficial doing the commentary.
Same, not sure why they removed him :/
@malcolm5514 , they never said why. Of course, they either don't know for sure or aren't saying, either way, it is their business, but it sucks for us.
@@michaelfrench9062politics.
@@malcolm5514 it sounded like he decided he'd rather be on the coaching side than the commentary side, which is fair
The commentary from “Dr” Bill Crawford was so scintillating and chock-full of insights that I did not think of Loz even ONCE.
I believe that Thors stint in Boxing have played a HUGE role in his comeback. Think about the foot speed and superior proprioception. He is a superior 400lbs+ now than he was pre-boxing.
Love you Loz and Liz!
It's clear Mitch's general sports conditioning is giving him the edge also.
What? He was fast before his boxing.
Though it needs to be said that this time on frame is a pr for him.
He's smaller and weaker than he was prior to retirement (for now).
Not sure wtf you're on about.
I agree I know he was still training hard but it was for conditioning and he was so much more healthy. That will have a great affect on his body, the peck tare was a set back but again instead of just breaking the record witch we all knew he would have he stopped and admitted he didn't want to get hurt, he's better mentally and physically, let's hope day 2 shows us more!
@@--SPQR--His body composition actually looks better now. His pressing power isn't back but that's because of his injury.
I just hope everyone appreciates what they are witnessing with Hooper. He has made one of the hardest sports going look easy. Just an unbelievable athlete.
Thor is so ungodly strong
You could even say he is godly strong, channelling the strength of the god in his name 💪🏻🔨 dudes advancing from half of Thor to 3/4s of Thor 😅
Yup. 4th place.
@@jonhofelich9107 which considering he hasn't competed in strongman for what 3/4 years, had an injury meaning he couldn't train until 10 months ago and worse yet couldn't train upper body in a real way until 6 months ago, is absolutely wild he placed so high in a competition this big. 6 months of really training n he's this powerful. Imagine where he will be in the next year or 2
Got to see Uncle Loz and Auntie Liz immediately upon arriving to the strongman competition. Literally, a perfect start to the Arnold’s!!!
If the strategy for Bobby to only lift once came from you Loz, that was genious
Big Loz playing some grown up chess behind the scenes. Didn't see that coming.
Didn't help him much on the next event
He would still have had to warm up, much heavier than other comps. But yeah, saved energy.
@@jefflawson3574 If I recall correctly he has very limited mobility in his ankles from prior injuries which is not ideal when you're carrying a massive weight on an incline.
Mitch made that frame carry look easy. Go Moose go!!
Thor looking powerful.
Uncle Loz your commentary made the show 😢😢
Need to have Loz, Rob Kearney, and Jerry next year on the mics
@@Jetplan36why wasn't Rob competing, is he injured ?
Such a bitter sweet show so far. Great to see the performances and heart breaking to see the injuries...
who was injured ?
@@yougotfelted8297Victoria pulled out, max pulled out, Oleksii and Tom Evans both hurt their elbow on frame but not sure how bad
@@cisrael468 That sucks for Oleksii he just came back from an injury. Hope T.Evans is alright. Thanks for the info.
What had my jaw on the floor was my shock when Martin's dropped that deadlift. I felt absolutely gutted for him and could read it all over his face. He knew he lost contention right there
@jodyfitzpatrick1679 and when he dropped the frame. Some of the performances are also attributing to the bitter part. Like Bobby on the frame, Rebbeca on the Deadlift, Evan on the frame, Inez going face first into the frame was scary and so on. Rollercoaster ride of a show so far. Love how good Mateuz is doing so far! Even though he was visibly disappointed by his time on the frame, but he is hard on himself. And was impressed by Thor's frame run. Can't wait for today!
Amazing coverage! Thank you, it means a lot to us folks that couldn't be there.🙂
And people are still questioning his 501...I cant wait for the day when he crushes this old record in a competition
i'm dreaming of this!
As always, great content and great people. Thanks you two!
Liz, you are saving all of us that can't be there and what a show it is turning out to be! Loz looks so stoked!
Thank you for streaming this, and the wonderful commentary!! Always looking forward to watching strongman shows!!! ♥♥
Thank you for the update! Been waiting all day for the best coverage!
So cool to see Mark Henry hanging out
Love your vids Loz! Thank you for the awesome recaps and behind the scenes content!
Thank you for the day 1 BTS Liz! Absolutely insane performances on Day 1!
It's scary how easy Thor lifts these huge weights, they look like they forgot to add weights to the bar. In 2020 Rogue record breakers when Thor failed an attempt at 501kg it came as a shock to see him fail a lift. I'm confident Thor will break 500kg in elephant bar within a year.
Hafthor has always been spectacular. I am very happy that he is back in strongman
I got the honor to meet you and Mitchell today. It was a great competition, you guys put out great coverage and great content. You guys keep up the amazing work you put into the sport of strongman. Thank you
Disappointed that Uncle Loz wasn’t on commentary, always love cracking one out to his insights.
Wow, I admire your honesty, Just remember to wipe it up once you're done
So much to say but the coolest thing is that Loz might be coaching both the men's and women's winner this year
Schwarzenegger looks like a matchstick next to Thor
😂
Great coverage, thank you for this!
Big well done to all the athletes what a great show wish i could've been there!! Thanks aunty liz and big loz for being such great ambassadors! ❤
Thanks for the video, Loz!
Thank you for getting this content out so quick 💪🙂❤️
Always love the BTS content from Auntie Liz, I got in trouble at work for watching the live stream and not welding, but oh well this only happens once a year. Totally worth it.
I am so great full Liz and Loz make this happen. Here I can stay at home in cold Scandinavia and be sick. And enjoy the powers of amazing human Grit a positive mindset and how to show what is possible. Loz and Liz you make the sport so Mutch better and fun. Bringing a more human side to it. What wonderful bunch of humans all of you! ❤🐻
Loved seeing Loz immediately changing Andreas thought when she was talking about tomorrow. Just deadlifted 315 for the first time and made it because a friend did something similar for me. Thanks Aunty Liz for getting this up quickly.
What an amazing first day! Watching this in the airport right now. Cant wait to see day 2 live!
Great to see Loz so excited, UK women looking great and go for it Andrea, one lift Bobby was great, Thor with that easy deadlift, can't wait for the Moose on day two to lift that 🏆 top job to Liz on the video's we all need
Thor and Mitch top 2,seems like it was written in the stars for some reason😂,i do think Mitch will win it tho,he looks in great condition,he still is getting better with every comp its scary,Thor is a strongman legend and just showed how great he is today,looking forward go day 2.
Waiting for this all day!
Your videos are great as usual you two do awesome at showing everyone what’s going on!!
Great event so far!
This video was amazing! I haven’t watched strong women comps before and really appreciate you covering it. Your channel’s relationship with the athletes is priceless and gives us a perspective that I cherish so much!
Those women always impress me and I enjoy watching them. Congrats to Andrea on a great first day. Also, Thor showing he is still not one to be messed with.
Tom can gain ground on the stone events, though.
At the end we should have women compete against the men in the last event. Just to show the difference 😂 as they've tried the opposite
Fantastic stuff, bringing us all the content as usual!
So happy to see mateusz smiling on day 1, now after seeing day2 and him coming second i hope he is proud of himself, second sucks offcourse, we all know what he's like.
But his 5times lifting that stone was, just awesome.
That guy (just like all of them, lets be honest) deserves a strongman title for sure, he is such an animal.
Seeing from where he started to where he is now, also just because his english has improven so much and his interaction with you guys and martines and romark behind the scenes was allways awesome.
Thank you so much for the awesome content 😊
Great footage as always, I love these videos
THANKS FOR THE VIDEOS YE ARE THE BEST
Thanks for the footage 😊 today will be exited time 😎
Thanks team Loz.
I am so psyched for strongman competitions.
Is Oleksii ok after timber carry? 🤞🏻
Loz can you PLEASE coach Mateusz on the deadlift. Seeing him have to claw back after bombing it every comp sucks, we all want him to win
Yes!!!
I'm sure by now many strong men have offered to work with Mateusz, not to mention Poland is full of strongmen and sensational dead lifters. With Mateusz strongman has always been a mental game - and he openly admits he hates the deadlift. I'd venture it'd be better to work with a sports psychologist. Having said that, it's good to see him happy and healthy this year!
@@Sebastian_Polak_Maly I would really like to see Mateusz hang with the big boys on the deadlift, but he would probably have to make some sacrifices to get there. He might end up more well rounded, but less spectacular.
Great stuff
I met you guys after Frame Carry, and before I could microwave my pizza tonight after getting back to the hotel, you have day 1 bts on day 1.
Thanks for the top notch content.
So good to keep up to date with what’s happening,
thanks guys
Thanks Big Loz and Liz for your coverage always the best. Thor and Mitch on a collision course!!!!
Great meeting you today Loz.
I became a huge fan of Mateusz Kieliszkowski after he did the stone to shoulder.. what 2 or 3 years ago and just blew everyone out of the water!
Thank you Aunty Liz for the interviews and backstage footage
I was soooo impressed with Thor's performance on the frame-carry. Didn't expect him to come even close to second. Phenomenal!
Grip strength actually increases with age all the way till your 60s and even 70s if you work at it. He's been working on it and trying to keep up with his dad, who has an amazing grip too. Shame he couldn't press the stone, wanted to see him podium this year.
Watched it live! Great show so far!
But we need loz back behind the commentary table!! Its lacking!
No words for the level of respect i have for these MEN and WOMEN that put it all on the line in the WORLD of STRONGEST ALIVE.
The most competitive Arnold in years with perhaps the deepest field ever with 5 WSM winners and 3 AC winners.
Coach Loz doing great!
This event is so awesome. The energy is incredible. Massive props to all athletes but i special shout tonthe girls, they reallt showed up 👌
Big Loz is such a nice bloke,cares about his trainees
Well done
I’m so pleased for Andrea 😊 she’s amazing
8:35 from the side it looks even faster, crazy speed
The Mountain is Amazing😊
GREAT TO SEE THOR BACK ,,HAPPY TO SEE MITCH DOING WELL ALSO 🇨🇦🇨🇦💪💪💪💪
While Jerry and Rob were ok, Loz and Gabe should be doing commentary for every major show.
Rob was awesome. While I love Jerry as an athlete, he isn't the best on the mic. The other two commentators...
Rob did a great job.
this is a great show.
Lucy's lockout power (3:09) is absolutely incredible! She's awesome.
Andrea looked amazing can’t wait till day 2 let’s go
Crazy impressive
The UK girls are smashing it over there . Well done ladies ❤
Thor & Lucy’s deadlifts were insane 🤯👏. Along with Mitch & Andrea just running with the frame.
Can’t wait for todays events .
Thank you for the behind the scenes as always awesome to watch .
Insane!
So far so good at the Arnold's.
THOR! Great to see him back. Great coverage guys
I love Mitch cause he’s my countrymen, but Thor lifted like a machine!!!!
Love seeing Thor seem so happy to chat with you!
Team Liz and Loz: best videos. Period.
Also- another thought.
Having a child and going through the boxing both humbled Thor and have made him a MUCH cooler person. Just my thoughts.
Nothing like a punch in the face and poopy diapers at 2AM to humble you!
I think his english coming a long way has helped him become more personable as well.
He was cool before those as well.
What a line up! The womans and mens events were amazing to watch
Hot damn that was electric 🎉
such a good competition this year
So cool to see Thor back
Thank you Liz. Sad for Maxime, memories of Loz in the Masters.
Andrea was awesome. Knew she'd smash the deadlift but way her frame carry was absolutely awesome. Thor's deadlift was jaw droppingly easy, plenty more in the task. Great to see Thor looking soo good. The real winner for me is the hardest and bestest worker over there, thanks Auntie Liz, the speed and quality of this video is pure awesome 😘.
Andrea and Lucy did awesome 👍Great to see Arnie actually watching and congratulating.
Thor's "I'm back" was cool 😎
Good seeing Mark Henry there, dude was [ probably still is] a beast in his Prime :D
These injuries suck 😔 hope everyone heals well
