this man was built different. nobody else at the top trains like this😅

120 Kilo each arm is fucking unreal

The secret is half a family cheesecake, and a litre of cranberry juice.

I'm doing 42kg dumbbells seated overhead for 8 reps x3 and feel quite strong. Eddie can do fucking 60kg for 40 to 50 reps in one set, absolute unit of a man he is

120kg in each hand for an over shoulder press is uncomprendable I'm a big lad and at my best I was doing it with 50kgs for 3 sets of 12 which was a lot better than most of the other lads in the gym so to imagine what Eddie was doing is just fucking mental he really did have the strongest shoulders on earth

Eddie is one of the strongest humans to have ever walked the earth in static strength.

People on comment section saying shit about someone who has the strongest shoulders ever

when Eddie hall won world strongest man they was nobody on his level and when he picked up 500kg that's insane legend is Eddie hall

How can you sit there and look at him repping a heavyweight boxer on each arm and say ‘you’re not doing that right’

Mountain dog and West Side barbell. So much knowledge on the benefit of partials. Eddie is a monster

Time under tension is the expression you're looking for my man

this strenght is actually unbelievable for me.. i'm training for 5 years now.. and i will never even come close to that.. really insane

keep in mind; this man reached 400kg+ deadlift without a structured program

The shoulders are posture muscles. They need a lot more volume than some other muscles to grow. So I could totally see this being a good way to train them.

If you've seen the video of his axel press at giants live, where he doesn't use any legs and all upper body, this makes total sense.

Extremely motivating! I already worked out today but this makes me want to dive back in.

I gotta try that soon. I wanna see how many reps I can get in at 50% but I’m already pretty sure I don’t come near 40 reps

Eddie is so strong that every time I hear him tall about his stats I feel like he is lying... my mind just can't comprehend

My rowing coach had us do this but for squats back in high school. Pretty cool to hear someone using the technique at the highest level

Time under tension builds muscle

"When they say what's the point I say well, there's lotsa points."

This guy casually did 60kg dumbbell presses for 50 reps because it was half his max weight while I struggle to do 10 reps with 30kg. What an absolute unit.

He does my weekly volume in one set.

That's INSANE strength, right there!

Bro shoulder presses double what I can only dumbbell row for 8 and he does its so much easier wtf😂

when eddie says "when I was at me peak" we actually believe

Strong man using bodybuilding technique. Respect, my routine is actually a mixture of both bodybuilding and power lifting

TUT- Time Under Tension 💪🏼

270 pound dumbell shoulder press is unbelievably

Him: "don't do a full rep so that you can't rest" Meanwhile the video in the background showing him resting between reps

I didn't believe in constant tension, and was a full ROM twat, but then - after another three month hypertrophy block failed to build biceps yet again - I tried it, and it's changed the game for me.

Why Listen to Eddie when it comes to strength training, what does he know?😂

Eddie using that bro science

Good advice for tall guy's love it, thanks!

Time under tension is golden🙌

Different reps for different purposes. There’s no “wrong” or “right” way to do something, but people pretend like there is. Well, they’re might be some bad ways 😅 but there’s lots of different ways to do something

Imagine how much he could do fully hydrated

"mommy, can I👶 be a muscle🦍head when I grow up." "No👆son, u may not."

Plus unless your spending a lot of time stretching, your gonna rip you shoulders on max weight doing full rep.

Eddie's bro science coming in strong. Obviously it worked a treat for him, he's an absolute specimen and inspiration. But my god does he talk some nonsense ❤

Imagine what he can do when he’s hydrated

Nice one “ will follow that advice

Thank you!!!! All the big, strong guys don't do "full range of motion." Keep tension on the muscles and rep it. Hell yeah BEAST. Set the record straight.

Actually fully extending a shoulder press uses way more triceps than delts. He's doing it the correct way for muscle building and strength. Most I ever did was 50kg for 8 when I was 18

Your reps are perfect Eddie, time under tension is a major concept and your range of motion was correct. Great job.

Time under tension

He talks like he’s an 80 year old grandpa reading a story of his young days to his grandkids

Time Under Tension was a very crucial rule I learned from my HS FB coach. He played for the Texas Oilers. Old hard bastard name Brewington.

I respect how he explained how they weren’t full reps

Always felt more comfortable with the bar.

well, I certainly hope that his heart muscle is just as strong.

And also saving your joints and tendons

That's actually great advice. I used to train with around 80 percent and go to almost failure with the last set with full reps. I hurt my shoulders a couple times from going to heavy or locking too fast and not focusing on form. This eliminates all of that risk.

Can’t argue with his results

Because it's harder to lift from "resting" position when doing full movement than from limited range movement

I think most normal mortals should just do a full ROM in most cases lol, Eddie is a genetically gifted elite freak of nature that would probably get stronger shoulders than 99% of lifters just sitting on the toilet bowl lol. The man didn't plateau on deadlifts until he was north of 900 lbs.

Gives Off some great advice it working for me I’m 55 training 3 times a week and making progress thanks eddie

Usually when I hear some KZfaq guy giving advice on how to train I take it with a grain of salt. But with Eddy, you know it's no BS

Here in lies the issue: people take advice from the genetically gifted and ignore the science.

Remember people, Eddie is lifting for pure strength. Not aesthetics.

He said for strongman he's not talking for hypertrophy which is the goal of most of us

Hall and Shaw are BAD Ass funny cool. Amazing power!!!

Bro science final boss 😂 Blud said 40-50 reps

For hypertrophy this is not optimal, you need more time under tension

That strength is hard to comprehend.

I train for 12 years now but i cannot imagine heaving strength like that, absolutely unhumanlike

At your peak you could press 120kg easily? It either isn't your max or it wasn't easy. Can't have both.

The evidence does not support this. What he was doing was endurance training. His power, came from other training practices he was implementing. Studies have also suggested he can get some good hypertrophy benefits with this type of structure, but its not the optimum way. The most efficient way of achieving hypertrophy seems to be 8-15 reps somewhere in the 75% of your 1rm range. Its not a power building structure. Also worth noting, the 5 rep range and over 20 rep range takes the longest to recover from. The best recovery also seems to take place in that 8-15 rep range with that 75ish percent load. Thats not my opinion, that is what science is suggesting based on recent studies.

I started doing this and applied it when using the machines at the gym, it WORKS 💪

How he doesn’t get shoulder pain from pressing out 90 degrees like that I’ll never understand

Bro i thought he was talking about chest when he said 120kg, but my man was doing my bench pr on shoulder press with dumbells on EACH HAND

No one should ever question this mans tactics...

“Didn’t do full reps” then proceeds to tell you the the correct way to do a full rep

Good advice thanks

He is absolutely right, there is no need to do full range movement You have to constantly work your muscles & keep mechanical tension which will put stress on muscles & recruit more & more motor units . That,s how you grow

Hes right. Time under tension

I adopted this mentality in my calisthenics routine and I've never felt stronger

Tell me why I thought someone was about to touch the ends of two lightbulbs together at first 😂😂

Cheers Ed ill try it next

Imagine how much he could do if he was hydrated

And he did all this dehydrated

What you state here is true, but if you are talking about bodybuilding you have to slow your rep speed way down. That makes it harder on the muscle.

Don’t think people understand the difference between fitness training strength training and bodybuilding or aesthetic training this dude is so much stronger then Arnold or any of them

Imagine getting a full strength punch to the face from Eddie, i think most people would pass out or die..

That's a proper way bro & no 1 tell to anyone same way in chest shoulder biceps even lags

Good advice to hear, cheers matey..

Insanely strong! But for optimal hypertrophy the descent should always be slow and and as deep as possible.

Fantastic advice!!!

Full range of motion is very important but time under tention without harming your joints is also very important to stay healthy

Time under tension - a point that many lifters miss.

“At 50% meaning 60 kilos for 40-50 Reps” Dumbledore said calmly

Thanks

CONSTANT TENSION !!!

Regardless of how strong he was, he’s full of broscience.

damn. the logic behind that lifting method makes so much sense I'm kinda pissed off I haven't figured this out on my own

Few things here. He doesn't say he never ever locks out when he's pressing. He's saying, an exercise he did do to build 'strength' is high reps at 50% of his ORM. The not locking out provides for increase Time under tension, and therefore easier to get to exaustion. Remember, 120kg on one arm for the shoulder is INSANE. Just because he's a beast, and he's nortern, he's not an idiot. What he's doing is using low weight (he can lift high reps off) low weight to him, high to us at 50-60kgs. Then he's just pumping out insane reps and trying to reach exaustion, to build more strength, but minimising risk given the sheer weight. The increased time under tension because he's not resting (avoiding the strict and therefore rest both at extention and contraction), he's getting to close to failure easier, and therefore building strength and muscle (and tendon strength). All these low resolution memes spouting 'bro science'. Eddie would crush your brain with his hand. When you're a GOAT, then you can have an opinion chumps.

Suddenly *Under Pressure by Queen starts to play*

I always tell people this motion is much harder than full lock... they always smile at me... i feel a lot more pressure doing it this way

Imagine how much he could press when he’s properly hydrated 😮

Best shoulder gains I got was working a summer in a warehouse, carrying 10-20kg boxes overhead for a lot of the day. Went from doing 20's to 30-35's
