I had the opportunity to participate with the Omega Force Strength Team this past weekend and would like to share what I do outside of lifting in my garage gym!
Enjoy!

So here are some videos from the June 1st Omega Force Strength Team Program at the Glasgow Highland Games Festival in Glasgow, Kentucky!

The Omega Force Strength Team - The Worlds Strongest Team with the Worlds Greatest Message!

Seems like a bunch of fat boys, and I doubt they're the strongest "team" in the world, or even close to it.

What makes you think they are?

The Pudzianowski/Jarek Dymel team is without a doubt stronger.

Koklaievs training camp is stronger too.

Any Russian powerlifting camp pretty much is stronger.

The Gillinghams.

James Hendersons team.

Metal Militia.

Westside Barbell Club.

And lots of other "teams".

How does one become "blessed" by the videos posted here?

Looks like you guys had fun. Thats all that matters.

MisterMagoo · « **Reply #5 on:** June 06, 2008, 04:30:30 PM »

Hedge, let me apologize. i didn't watch the videos before saying that.

"lifting for jesus"? man, wow. i mean, i need a "laughing so hard my balls hurt" emoticon, because i'm laughing so hard my balls hurt.

you want to make jesus happy, go do something useful. i doubt he's sitting there going "yeah, well, i was hoping you'd go out and help the needy, but i guess lifting a fucking log is pretty good."

BPGorilla does have a very entertaining youtube channel, though the whole lifting for god is laughable

Thanks for your thoughts MisterMagoo

I believe your opinion may just be the perspective you see it from.

Each feat of strength illustrates a point.
Have a great day!

I am glad you found the videos entertaining.

Strength ministry is more about spreading the gospel through feats of strength as illustrations.

Have a great day!

it's not nice, it's arrogance. he thinks he's got a direct channel to god and his lifting is testament to the lord almighty, so there's no need to let the angry comments from the peons get to him. it's a kind of patronizing arrogance you only find with the zealously religious.

Good point. He's an asshole

i have many, many issues with religion, but i try to keep them from boiling over 99% of the time. what really chaps my ass is the guys who make sure they punctuate all of their sentences with "jesus". part of the ruse is that they hope people call them on it so they can act holier-than-thou and reinforce their self-image as ultra-pious.

you want to worship jesus, go for it. but don't plaster it all over the place. nothing looks dumber than someone who finishes a lift and says "praise god!" john bernor did that in his famous 720x5 beltless vid. sick lift, stupid proclamation at the end.

So these guys not only claim to be the strongest team in the world.

But also to have the greatest message.

Talk about confidence.

Love to see them back that up.

Why does it bother you guys so much??

This guy isn't even arguing or fighting back and you are just burning him to the ground.

While that isn't my flavor of faith, still great work with those performances.

I remember seeing a guy in middle school doing a similar thing about not doing drugs. He did one he called "breaking the chains of addiction" where he wrapped some chain around each hand and then across his back and then he snapped it by doing like a cable cross kinda motion.

It may have been corny but look at it this way, the guy was getting paid to do something he loved and was spreading a positive message at the same time. I doubt that it actually kept any body from doing drugs but it still is something cool I remember all these years later.
