Surely she could lose weight on her own?
Edit: And it's not gonna be great for her weightlifting, she must be getting paid or it's pretty stupid!

Have you seen how large she is?

I'm a huge fan of strongman , but in my opinion the another level in sport is due to new substances and nutrition . They take it too far . It's not normal to be 200 kilos . Just too much . Have a big respect to what these guys do ... but I don't think this is healthy and sends a wrong message !


They don't add strength. Just heal injuries and help recovery. That's what I have been told

I've done 2 cycles years ago and what they do is a pure magic . What u've heard is a simple justification . They add a lot of strenght in a short period of time .

She comes under extra fire because the girl beating her is 30kg less heavy than her, squats less, and totals 25kg more I think.
Holly has a 230 back squat!

A 0.4xbw squat isn't impressive! Grin

I was180kg at my first wsm and lifetime PED free. It's far from all about drugs at top level.

Never said it's all about drugs , Terry .But how the level of strongman increased so much in the past 10 years . Back in 2000 biggest guys were 140 kilos . Now bodyweight is much higher . Today Svend Karslen and Samuelson wouldn't ever enter the wsm final. So ? If it's not about drugs it's about genetics . So Karlsen has no genetics ? I know Z is on growth hormone for sure .Man ...he's 38 for GOD's sake. He took the Strongman to that level . Every year bigger and bigger . All u guys have supreme genetics , no doubt about it . But genetics is not enough .

It's a pity its an issue at all really. And then we all have these uniformed conversations about it on the internet (speaking for myself, obviously there are atheletes on here who know what they're talking about). I don't like the "guilty until proven innocent" attitude around elite level sport either.

Re: WSM... If the sport was "clean" it would be 90% of the same guys competing, weighing 90% of what they do now and lifting 90% as much weight, I'd guess. And no less impressive. Only everyone knows testing doesn't really work so maybe you don't really have a choice if you want to be the best?

I think gyms have a lot to answer for though. A lot of kids that don't have a clue what they are doing to their bodies and the people who run the gyms know what's going on and turn a blind eye. Personally, I don't understand being on anything unless you have a shot at being a top athelete.

I said it before .... these guys are naturally super strong . A few in the world can ever reach that level with all drugs used . U gotta be really stong and big naturally . Big Z is my hero and for me the strongest ever !
But .... u gotta have in mind how the level of strongman improved in the past 10 years .

Are/were Karslen and Samuelson 6ft 6inch - 6ft 9inch? You can obviously fill out more when you've got more height to play with surely???

Its pretty obvious peds are involved more now than ever. That goes for all sports. Training has also evolved as has diet and natural supplements.

Think about it. Go back 30 or 40 years ago and mention the weights guys are lifting now, most would laugh at you.

For example nobody would think a 400kg deadlift is possible for an 85kg lifter. Yet if one guy were to hit that, then i guarentee a good few more would come close, because they would then know it is a possible target. Point is people do not know whats achievable until somebody hits a target first!
