Strong man VS Climber - Who has stronger grip? The Norwegian Hulk
This is what competition without ego is like. All friendly, stiff competition but full of respect for each other. Fantastic sportsmanship and you can see they’re learning from each other at the same time.
As an alien being, I laugh at these male mammalian pissing contests. The universe is more variedly absurd because of them.
I thought it was very awkward.
@audhumbla They're both Norwegian
Yeah. This is what II find MOST guys are like when they aren't around women :P They just want each other to do better without any posturing :D
@ADAMION 19 yes i did...we resoled that a whole ago :)
Love the energy of this video. As a trainer it's interesting to see the strongman lifting using lower body mechanics and Magnus using a lot of shoulder/scapula retraction the fact it's so evenly matched up to this point is incredible
Hulk vs Spiderman!!!
As someone with thin shoulders my back and shoulder aches when he uses shoulder movement to lift it up 🙃
I noticed that too. Fascinating to see their different techniques on the same lifts
I love the way Magnus goes back and forth with his guest. He is like a passive encourager haha, he isn't in your face and loud, but definitely gives motivation and credit to push you further and further. I also like he humble he is.
Amazing when two gentlemen can have the most polite and encouraging competition. Both of you are excellent in your own areas and it is clear that you both walked away with new shared insight, and it genuinely looked like you enjoyed each other's company while going through these exercises. I applaud you both.
@Soykilosmoke bro look at the way he gives him dirty looks at times lmao
@Jason Voorhees he just seems awkward he also doesn’t speak English fluently as well
@Soykilosmoke the tension
@Jason Voorhees what makes you say that?
you could tell they didn't like each other
Magnus' grip strength is crazy for his size. Great showcase of how training specificity plays into things.
@Go muscle size - a 200 lb muscular person on average will have higher grip strength than a flabby 200 lb person. Those two guys are outliers in the population. Both top on their sport
Size? Grip strength has nothing to do with a person's weight. Overweight or underweight people usually have less grip strength than normal ones.
I love the humility of two truly competitive people on display here. You can tell that you both work very hard on your abilities and don't take anything for granted. When I was young my father had a logging business selling firewood. I was about 16 when he shut the business down, but my brother was in that sweet spot of youth (late teens/early twenties) when we all did that kind of work. His hands were so powerful from picking up hardwood pieces one handed and throwing them (two at a time from the ends with barely the fingertips gripping the edges) that even though he has relatively small hands, he could palm a regulation basketball fully inflated by crushing it with his fingertips. I bet he would have done well on these tests back then, especially the 3rd one. That tool is shaped very much like a piece of split firewood. Your demonstration here shows how the limits of human strength are more universal than they seem. You both are strong in very different ways but your hand strength is very close because the two types of exercises you regularly do require it. Very cool.
This is the most wholesome and respectful thing I've seen in ages. Seriously impressive how you have both arrived at a very similar place from completely different directions.👍
Follow her over to the fireplace and then she would look at it and yell at him anymore she just she never meals for eating more I guess she knows that it’s not a thing that she wants
After a certain point with strength sports you're really just competing against yourself and a handful of other weirdos who have put in years and years of very specific training. At that point it's hard not to be coming from a place of mutual respect. Nice to see that coming out in this
The thing I like the most is how encouraging they are to each other. That is the sign of true sportsmen who don't truly compete against each other as much as challenge themselves. I have great respect for these two.
@Puro That's not necessarily true. You attempt something and that sets a benchmark. Now you work to raise your benchmark. You are therefore challenging yourself to do better than before. There are many factors you can target, be it quantity, duration, speed, etc. You don't have to push anyone else to push yourself.
To challenge yourself you have to challenge others so they improve, otherwise you have nothing to try to beat.
The humble and kindness of both of you was very warming. We need more of this in the world🤞🏽
Magnus is 5'9" and the Norwegian Hulk looks to be about the same height (perhaps even a bit shorter) so despite being nearly 400 lb and very strong, as far as strongmen go he's likely got some pretty small hands. Other huge strongmen who are much taller like Thor (6'9"), Brian Shaw (6'8") and Mark Felix (6'5") have incredible grip strength in part due to their massive hands.
Yes height makes for a bigger frames and bigger body proportions. Good job.
Magnus is 5'8 or 173 cm.
he's 170cm / 5'7
Massively informative and entertaining. You guys show so much respect for each other!! Doing rock climbing does increase your grip massively!!
That was awesome! Very fun to watch, I am very impressed with how humble you both are, and the sportsmanship is very supportive on both sides.
Dude put up some good competition despite being entirely out of the realm he trains in. What a beast. Not to detract from your performance. You're both ridiculously strong
@Cosmic Billy Just a quick google could have shown you that I'm right, did you even bother to check before attempting to call me out for something easily fact-checkable? If you're talking RAW bench, the record is 782lbs, which is still significantly more than the guy in the video. But if you're including the separate category of bench shirt press records (press shirts help with safety and balance, protecting lifters shoulders to help safely focus upward muscle force)), then the current world record is 599kg, or 1320lbs by Jimmy Kolb.
@KahlevN lmao BENCH pressing 500 to 600KG?? Thats over 1100lbs buddy. 501kg is the world record DEADLIFT. Not bench. No one in the world can bench 500kg🤣
@Daniel Kaschel By that I mean stronger than your average guy that works out and lifts a lot. But from my experience just about every decent sized gym in a medium sized town has a guy that can lift that much or more. Hell some US high schools have guys that lift more.
@KhaReckless I done some power lifting and lift normal, but can say i barely train my grip to hold the primary weight. You either train the large muscles isolated and pick a few smaller ones with it as an added bonus. Or if you go power-lifting the aim is to use every muscle in your body to get shit done. The amount of weight i can hold with my grip significantly decreases if it solley hang from my fingers (grip)
Loved seeing this and the genuine comradery and support! While I've never competed in any strength competition's or anything like that and I've never been a gym guy I've just always had very strong hands/fingers which I've started to lose due to Multiple Sclerosis. Despite the extreme unpredictability of my strength from day to day or even moment to moment I think maybe I'll look into a gym membership where I can work on it in a more controlled manner. While most likely not the actual intention of this video, Thank you for the inspiration!
Succes man, im sorry to hear that
the comradery of this exercise is refreshing. Guys trying to best the other yet encouraging each other and admitting fairness. top notch. The world needs more of this.
21:21 I definitely would like to see that! But maybe a strongman challenge, before challenging the Norwegian Hulk again? I love to see more of you guys together, challenging each other for fun and science!
I sort of knew that Magnus was going to be the stronger one for grip, but, I was rooting for the big guy for sure. This was really fun to watch! 2 incredibly strong athletes putting ego aside and had a good friendly competition. Three cheers for you guys!
Магнус Карлсен им присунет калибр Магнум
Really respect the professionalism between you two and how open the big guy to learning. Good show you two. Very educational
This is obviously not news but this really shows how INSANELY strong Magnus grip truly is!!! And hats of to both athletes here, very impressive!
Send a text…………………..⬆️⬆️ You won package🎁
@bruhgnarok i will!😄
@Stephan Skjennum EIF. Tell your brother to lower the weight by 10-15kg and go full lockout for the disbelievers.
The humility and mutual respect between these guys brings back fond memories of my martial arts days. Big ups to both!
I love the part at 16:50 where he's trying to figure out Magnus's incredible finger muscle. Very nice guy, and he took it well.
What I really like about this is the strong man has an opportunity to be genuinely surprised by someone's strength. It's not often this guy pulls a really tough deadlift and sees someone come up and lift the same weight. Pretty cool to watch his reactions to Magnus lifting weights he's also struggling with.
Awesome video. It's great to see two down-to-earth athletes test their abilities in such a friendly showcase of technique and strength.
He seems like a very easy going, friendly guy! I would love to see more content with him, Magnus
Every Norwegian you bring on your channel has a such a calm kindness to them and always so modest. Makes me want to live there.
@Wendy Here I'm Dutch and lived in the Netherlands for 34 years and moved to Norway 4 years ago and still living there. It's harder to get connected with Norwegians than in most other countries. It's way easier to start a conversation with a unknown person in the Netherlands. Here in Norway people keep to themselves. I know another Dutch guy who moved from Oslo to a small town near Lillehammer. He has 4 neighbours around him and they never ever came by to have a chat with him. You really need to work hard on making new friends in Norway, and still, even working activly on it, it takes a looot of time. People here really mind their own business and they think that they are harassing people if they start a conversation. For the norwegians: ikke tro at du er til bry for noen hvis du begynner en samtale med en fremmende.
@Lasair Many Europeans don’t realize the U.S. is almost as big as all of Europe and has many different cultures. Best not think of the U.S. as one place.
@Tornacense de futuro I wish I knew, I was surprised to see similar attitudes in this comment section from non Americans.
@Jorge Mendez One of the most depressed society in Europe ;) What Americans don’t get that Europeans in general are much more polite and nice.
Love seeing all of these incredible athletes’ reaction to Magnus’s immense strength😂
Wonderful example of dedication and inner strength. My family once shared a table with a gentleman from Denmark who was a massive looking weightlifter. Very intimidating. He turned out to be wonderfully kind and articulate. He was studying to be a social worker. Do not judge a book by its cover. Thank you for sharing such a friendly competition.
They are such great guys to each other, but I love how the Hulk tries with his weaker hand first. You can visibly see his technique improve through the grips
Hello thanks for reaching out! You’ve won text above to acknowledge prize’🎁
They were both so incredibly nice to each other! Such different skillsets, but so much mutual respect! I really enjoyed this.
I have huge respect for the Hulk. He must have known he couldn't compete with a professional, but still faced the challenge. Also very inspiring to see that strength is not everything, but that technique matters the same. That gives hope 😄
Great fan🏅🎉thanks for comment you are among the shortlisted Winners ❤❤ Use the Above name to Acknowledge Your prize.
I love how he's genuinely impressed by what Magnus is able to do. While also managing to be impressive himself at something he isn't trained for. Quality content all around.
🔝🔝↗️↗️ CONGRATULATIONS YOU WON🔝🎊🎁..........
@Pål Mathisen thought that about high school wrestlers you just get kicked in the face when you shoot like that in real life.
Yeah i love too love his humility.. He's not worried about winning... He genuinely wants to see both of them fullfill their best
Yeah its cool to see the adaptability of the body
he does grip ytaining...
For the last 46 years I have coached athletes in Track and Field. Magnus is the first athlete I have seen who could not tell your their Personal Record in any event. I love the mutual respect these two men display. This should be required viewing for all American Pro Football players.
@Infinity It is, and thank you. For me, a survivor of an off road motorcycle accident at the age of 21 which left me a paraplegic with a spinal cord injury. Both sons know the risk.Most of their role models as kids were world class wheelchair basketball or racing champions. My wife and I trust our younger son, the climber, to make the correct choices on the rocks. Over my 45 year career working in rehabilitation. I have seen way too many paras and quads who were hurt climbing, diving in water or in MVC accidents. Thank goodness for the Boy Scouts. Both our sons embraced hiking and living and experiencing the outdoors at an early age and they are more comfortable sleeping under the stars than in a bed. They are both safety conscious and they have taken the testosterone aspect out of their outdoor activities. All the best to you this Spring when you are able to get back out on the trails. Be safe and stay at it as long as you can. In my opinion, walking is overrated(smile,) but it sure makes life easier. Be safe.
@martymorse2 That's really exciting to hear. I'm more of a trekker/hiker myself, and not that good at climbing. But I watch videos like this to awe at the very dynamic approach at climbing, which is different than almost any other sport. Some stuff looks like straight up Spiderman shit. It's really impressive to see.
@Infinity Excellent feedback Infinity. Thanks. Our youngest son is a climber. He is currently living and working at Yosemite. He is in heaven out there with the hiking and climbing. I doubt he could tell you his pr's in any of the lifts he does other than with his climbing and bouldering specific work. Love the problem solving aspect of rock climbing. It is so much about imagery and adapting. It will prepare him in a metaphorical way for the. rest of his life.
Pretty sure he can tell his personal record in his field, that is climbing. I don't think climbers focus that much on the numbers of their grip strength, but they for sure wouls remember how high they climbed, or what their hardest course was.
Incredibly humble and eager to learn something new! Love how he cheered you on! Both Impressive 💪🏼
I'd love to see a rematch in year honestly, Norwegian Hulk is such a huge guy already and I'd be excited to see how much he could improve now by knowing what specific tasks he has to improve at
I *absolutely* want to see this man climbing. Please make it happen. Also, wow. Both of you are incredible.
I love how the weightlifting community is so positive. Even when directly competing against each other they always cheer one another on.
Hello thanks for reaching out! You’ve won text above to acknowledge prize!🎁
It's so nice to see people who don't practice the same sport training together and learning from each other, the mutual respect they both have for each other's skills is admirable. ❤
@Amy Spencer So you intentionally dissing me is somehow more mature than me just being playful and nice? Ok 👌
@Lost Gavin calm down! 🤣 She clearly states that they are both sports men so chill tf out. Why are you so pressed about strangers showing respect to other people anyway? YOU'RE acting like a toddler. 😏
Scandinavians are very humble people from what I've seen, even when they're extremely good at what they do. Kind of wish that was more common with people here in the US.
They are both professional high tier athletes at the top of their craft, that means they are of the same cloth!! Your acting like one person knits sweaters all day while the other splits the core of the earth! They have mutual respect because they are very similar to each other! 😩
I would like to see him come and climb! I’m impressed with all the big guys climbing ability that you’ve have on your channel so far!
the fact he was continuously impressed with your lifts shows how humble the man is and that he can appreciate a different kind of strength.
the big guy is such a gentleman and so humble, both actually. Tremendous sportsmanship
It’s Refreshing to see gentlemanly sportsmanship….. bravo 👏🏼 lads!
I train regularly and I must to admit that I was nearly sweating by watching this lifts. Thank you for sharing!
The Norwegian Hulk is so nice, humble and genuine. He tried really hard, and by the end of the video, he was amazed by your technique and strength. You guys should definitely collab again. I really enjoy when you collab with Norwegian athletes (or people, in general). Everyone seems to be humble and friendly, and speaks their mind with no problem. The pace of the video is excellent and the editing is just perfect, not chaotic or boring. Great job guys!!
@Bennibotち He is incredible! Seems like the nicest guy and what a powerhouse. So impressive.
@Meowster Thank you so much. He was SO happy when he saw all the positive comments.
@Bennibotち You have an amazing dad!
Thx for being posetive about my dad :). Have a great day
Nice video as usual! I wonder if someday you'll manage to test the grip with an elite judoka, that would be a good and even challenge!
I like how both guys are extremely humble despite their massive achievements, good fair-play too!
19:56 "Almost every day for 20 years", what a king
Enjoyable to watch. My father had a trick where you lock your middle finger with another person with one turning opposite each other. I haven't witnessed anyone beating my father. Great video I'm really impressed by both people and encouraging each other is really nice to see. I think sharing a passion. Doesn't matter which discipline.
I couldn't stop smiling during whole video. Superb sportsmanship!
As a submission grappler, I have rolled with all kinds of body types, and various configurations of strength and athleticism. But by far, the person with the strongest grip and arms I ever encountered was a 165 pound rock climber. It was insane how easily he could manipulate other people’s limbs, almost as though he had hydraulics in his own
@The Major you are talking complete nonsense
If you look at my posts you will see a 69 year old with a different type of grip free climbing trees. I can also do a plank on one finger
@Logan Media yeah, people who participated in a lot of fights tend to develop brain-related problems like dementia or Parkinson's later in life. Couple that with many ailments and bone wounds caused by taking too many risks, and you are gonna have one hell of a terrible retirement.
@Don’t open the door please. Also most of those guys who did try to show off how strong they were or did constant physical labour were probably crippled from wear and tear later in life.
@The Major "Back then what we call strongmen, were the normality." No, they weren't.
I love how friendly and encouraging you guys ere to each other. Very respectful. Nice...
Hello thanks for reaching out! You’ve won text above to acknowledge prize!🎁
I'm impressed, not as much by the display of strength as by the humility and no-bs attitude of both the very likeable gentlemen. Well done to both.
I love how there is not posturing here. They are both encouraging each other to do the best they can.
I watched these gentlemen not really interested it the subject matter but their ability to convey strength through humility and politeness really makes you realize what we have lost as a society.
Great video, the competition was good, but the best part was the gentleness , humbleness, and respect both athlete treated each other with, which makes you both winners !!! . God bless you ! Thank you ! 🤩🤗👍👏🥇🏅🏆
I love how friendly and humble the competition is between them. Also I enjoy seeing people clearly giving it their all but knowing when to stop before an injury. Clearly these people know their limits and how to do it as safely as possible.
@Iverson that doesn’t matter when it is about grip.
hes cheating with his feet ancles, lifting with the toes
I think very typical Norwegians..
Definitely agree! And not only humble, but encouraging each other and sharing their strength and knowledge !
super cool man, i learned a lot..one of the strongest men has relatively weak hands, compared to the rest of his body. goes to show how specific strength training matters in specific situations seems like a super nice guy.
Fantastic sportsmanship, healthy competition. Ultimately nice to watch. Thank you.
Amazing how close they are, These guys are so cool, that was fun to watch.
I was surprised about the hulks finger strength, because I don’t expect him to train it that much. But comparing body weight, Magnus performance is incredible. Casually lifting 100 kilos with one hand…
It’s almost uncomfortable seeing two people being so supportive and kind to each other while competing! We need more of this!
@pineapplepenumbra IKR! Just asking for a broken foot/toes
I don't find it uncomfortable, I like it (apart from the feet in socks, near weights).
Its just two man seeing whos stronger at those particular exercises its about being curious and not about competing
@KIURazin You on drugs! I did not get you?
Very interesting. The comment about having more muscle mass but not being able to use it in something this specific was correct, I think. Rock climbing is very dependent on grip strength strong man yes but not like rock climbing. Also, being able to do it over and over vs one time powerlifting type stuff is important. Great competition.
Nice to see tons of kindness and respect between amazing, impressive athletes.
14:02 The kind of feeling when the others understand your hardwork and passion is so satisfying.
What an awesome competition. This is what sportsmanship is.
I always had a tiny suspicion that strongmen were strong, so, to me, it was more amazing to see how strong a rock climber can be in the hands. While these specific exercises were designed for rock climbers, a strongman has to actually hang on to the insanely heavy things he's lifting, so besting a top level strongman is very impressive. The Norwegian Hulk climbing? Well... It might be fun, seeing a mountain tip over. Still, better to leave them standing, I think. He'd definitely do better at climbing, than you would in a strongman contest, though - even with the mountain collapsing over him. No offense.
Every single time I watch one of Magnus’s videos (doesn’t matter how many), I still find it inspiring how humble and encouraging all parties are with each other. To me, this is how sport is meant to be. 👍👍 Edit: summed up as, “it’s a very specific strength”
@DeSpace Man I agree. That’s true of anything, really. It’s not even the money if you think about. It’s branding. In sports, food, art, etc, once something/someone becomes a “brand” it begins to lose some or all of its originality and becomes an insincere calculated marketing machine to one degree or another. I don’t want to see sports stars selling me cheeseburgers or, more tragically, talented musicians falling into the cycle of being spoon fed pop songs written by someone else and composed at a computer.
@DeSpace Man doubt, i have seen people fight very seriously over a game of football (soccer in the freedom land) and it didnt even have a prize, just people fighting for their pride and ego.
@DeSpace Man I think the climbing community is also just full of people who want to connect with nature and have a good time. That's the best motivation.
It's humble because there isn't big money in it at the moment, when sports become a million dollar pay check it start to become nasty & ugly. That's the reason I do sports for fun & for enjoyment once you go into tournament or pro & lost of money involved it's no longer enjoyable for me. I had player & coaches come up to me & say why don't you come & play in the pro division with us your skills are very high, I said nah then it become a job & isn't fun anymore I'm not interested in a trophy or prize money at the end of the day that's not what sports means to me.
@Tony Travels transphobia? Where?
Amazing to see how grip strengths play a role in pulling stuff; Magnus, a guy much less stronger, is able to lift more than the strong man. If strongmen like hafthor and eddie incoporate grip strength training, they would be absolute beasts!
Its insane how close in size their hands are
Love the good sportsmanship between the two of them.
You are doing great stuff, Magnus! Great concept!
The big guy is damn humble 👏
I bet the kids at his kindergarten absolutely love this guy. They are lucky to have such a great role model.
jope so
There must be pictures of him with like the whole class hanging off his arms. lol
2 amazingly different athletes, but both seem like decent guys who are good sports, readily able and willing to give the other guy opportunity and credit. I wish some countries could act that way.
YES, he must go climbing. I can't wait to see him master a new challenge.
I want to see the Norwegian Hulk on the front line as an offensive guard or tackle in the NFL! What a nice guy, both guys were nice guys. Enjoyed this unique challenge.
I really enjoyed this! There is a rock climbing place close to me. I always think about going there more often. Your videos are going to change my "think" to "do"!
Completely different training to achieve completely different skills. It's amazing how strong is the grip of a climber.
The Norwegian Hulk is one of those people that one instantly likes. His performance in the last challenge was AMAZING!!! I used to be a rock climber and I know how tough that challenge is. For him to be able to nearly match you on that one was inspiring. Great content!!!
@Ricardo Arjona Gaming as someone who was scaffolding i agree, but your body gets use to it so you don’t continue building muscles past a point at a job appearance wise lol
He seems like a very sweet man!
@Ricardo Arjona Gaming great name
@J K i worked at a warehouse for 6 months no fancy machinery all the work was done by hand, at that time i felt stronger than i feel now despite currently hitting the gym 3 times a week. i guess you cant compare a two hour workout to lifting and moving heavy things all day every day...
@A PK the masculine urge to look like a pile of marshmallows and deadlift 300kg
Excellent test and competition. So interesting to see the different abilities 👍🏻 Yes I’d also like to see NH try climbing.
love how you have other athletes on your show and you are so respectful.
That was a fun video. Who would win..... and yet it didn't matter! Just nice to see two people from different disciplines working on the same problems. 🙂
I love this they're both so strong I was amazed by how strong they are!!
I think endurance is going to play a big role. Maybe a machine that calculates the grip strength in one grab.
Seeing the difference between the skillsets with these two athletes was awesome. massive respect to both of you for the friendly competition.
I feel like hulk could do better if he had a week or so to practice. You got to remember rock climber does this more regular so he has better technique and muscle coordination. Hulk is learning this and it takes a bit to get your muscle coordination and technique down. Everyone experience this issue with new lift when starting it's kinda hard at certain weight but you find you quickly progress because you are learning technique and your muscle are working more properly to assist you to max out at your potential in the moment.
Tim Harrolds WTF are you on man?
@P Oh damn... thanks for info
@nillyeg The broken phalanges and metatarsals. That much weight would just snap the bones and crush the joints. I think the climber would suffer more from the permanent loss of mobility, although the strongman would be permanently lopsided in his lifting. The pain would eventually heal (with surgery and physio) but the damage would be lasting.
@P imagine if it fell on his foot. The pain x.x
it amazing him watching the little guy pick up the one finger he seems confused about it but also vary respectful and impressed by it
I'm the most impressed by the fact that Magnus is lifting WAY more than his own body weight.With ONE hand.
Both are kind gentlemen. Magnus is very humble and respectful throughout the process😊
Great example of a humble human interaction ❤️
Great video and great to see two opposite sizes comparing strengths in a non egotistical way.. 👍👍👍
This is so wholesome. Both these men are clearly incredibly impressive athletes, just with different specialties. And they are both so kind and encouraging. It just makes you feel good watching it.
when you're truly strong there's no need to be ehhh nasty? Now think back on all the other guys😂
@Anthony Beltran I'm willing to bet he's not runnin gear either.
It's the Scandinavian culture
Love how they are so humble and how the big guy is the furthest thing away from a "meathead".
sportmanship at its finest
This video blew up. I hope you do more videos with him, especially with these type of challenges.
I love how he just goes "wow you're strong" 😂
The kids in his class definitely love him. He just has that look, that’s awesome!
The hulk never looked this friendly and kind. Amazing sportsman. Amazing sportsmanship.
The Norwegian Hulk is very cool. What a humble guy, and a total beast. Awesome. The climber guy is cool too!
The fact that these guys are lifting near my body weight with one hand and making it look easy is Insane
@Villtra Well, if he's able to move the motor for 30 mins with the 30kg drag, then I'd call that endurance. Raw strength is measured in "how much is the absolute max, that you can lift." (as shown in the video) We could abstract this even more. Let's say we measure endurance like this: Both sit on a training bicycle, both get to choose their preferred drag. Now check how much kilowatts of power you guys can produce in 30 minutes. This means you got to work on higher rpm to keep up with the higher drag he's able to push.
@F D He doesn't. They compared their hands at the beginning. The Hulk had longer fingers.
I mean I weight ~60 so they can lift twice my weight lol.
@Canas marathon runners dont have leg power,doubt most of them can even squat 100kg ,my point was,compared to their size ,strongman have very good cardio and they train it,most people at that size would just die
@crankpatate that would depend on how high the resistance goes, at lower levels his heavier legs would make him worn out way quicker, but when you get to like 30 kilograms or something he wouldn't feel much of a difference while I'd be barely moving, but that's not really measuring endurance anymore, just raw strength
I was very happy to see them cheer for each other during this. Great video.
What a nice dude. Would love to see you teach him a bit of climbing. Bet he would surprise us.
dude seems like a fun dude to lift with! Great Video Magnus!
I was lying in bed watching this wanting to be stronger so decided to do two pushups for every successful rep that either of you did. Let me tell you, I'm exhausted. This was the only time I let an ad play all the way through just for a rest.
