Yup.  I used to use a 2.5" bar and DBs for clean and press and curls as well as alternating DB toss. Those things were very difficult for me to hold onto, LOL!  Needless to say I really enjoyed my time "Dinosaur Training".

You realize he does this stuff in WSM and other big contests?

I guess Mateusz 330 lb Circus DBell press (1-arm) is fake?

Get back to the Meth-Lab Johnny. They need their paint-can tester back...

Mitchell achieved the world record on the Yoke / Log Press at the recent Rogue Invitational. He completed it 31 seconds or so. It was ~1,000-lb Yoke, followed by a 385-lb log for two or three reps.

I didn't realize he was only 26. Maxime Boudreault [who lives a few blocks from me] is still Canada's Strongest Man, but Mitchell may catch up to him pretty soon.

The dedication of these guys impresses me, but I worry about their health. As recently as 2004, the Farmer's Walk was 120-kg / 265-lb per hand. Meanwhile, the u-80kg guys just did 131-kg / 290-lb per hand, and the WSM guys seldom go below 365-lb.

The only explanation I have is that around 2008, the WSM competitors started using pro bodybuilder PED dosages. I don't know what else could have changed.

Take the stone run at World's - they start at ~265-lb, and go to a ~400-lb stone. It used to start at ~220-lb, with the heaviest stone being ~285-lb.

Mitchell, from what I've heard, is a pretty friendly bloke. I could see him win World's one day.
