Yoke is way harder then I expected. Seeing Michelle run with over 1000 lbs on his back was mind blowing.

He's always like "that's what works for me" and fair enough it makes sense but people are interested in his hindsight on strongman way more than in a neatly packaged video with him hitting 6 different machines that supposedly "carry over to strongman"

EVERYONE looks like an idiot when they first try yoke, and it's humbling. He picked it up quickly, and had a great attitude even when he was struggling. Love to see it, and respect to him.

Thanks for the videos Brother! I greatly appreciate your insight and sharing of techniques, especially when you previously broke down that you don't have to do 10k calories a day and so forth! My weight has always maintained right around 230-240, maybe I could push the envelope another 20 or 30 pounds, but I def won't be killing myself trying to overeat when much is still to be gained strength wise at my present weight.

That’s still very impressive. People should try to do high partial squats with even 650-750 pounds in a power rack. Try lifting it off the safety pins and if you can try supporting that weight for 7- 10 seconds. That will give you a idea how strong M. Hopper is. He made it look easy.

I woul like to ask a general question to the community: Any thoughts why the recent WSM are so "small"? Mitch is insanely strong but relatively light. There was the time of Shawn, Hall, Björnson, Big Z... with the winners always having a bw of near 200kg. Since 2019 a lot of "light" athlets are winning or in the top 3. Stoltmans are still heavy but not close to 200. What changed? More speed related events in the competition?

@canostrengthcano7850 Жыл бұрын

I’m thinking the yoke was harder for them because of the crossbar being upside down. I ran my old yoke couple times like that. And it allows the uprights to bounce in and out( left and right) since the part of the cross bar that usually sleeves the upright are not stabilizing them down towards the bottom where the weight is , either way freakish yoke carry!
