is the deadlift hold straps or no?

loading will be interesting - lots of quick athletes in there.

No straps is what everyone’s been saying

Strongmen doing 13-14 reps on a 200kg stone shows they need to make the stone heavier for the final...last one is 210kg.

Time to have the last one at 230kg+

A few thoughts:

Most people just doing 4 events in the qualifiers. They used to do 6 right?

5 events in the final and they used to do 6 as well?

Only 5 people in each group instead of 6?

All the qualifying heats’ events practically the same.

With Thor injured it could turn out to be one of the most exciting ever but just by coincidence.

The new format is s**t IMO. Am I missing something? Will this Male great telly?

We’ll soon see.

It feels to me like it's been done on a much tighter budget than before.

Have less athletes for less time saves money. Fewer events meaning less equipment has to be shipped. Less variety of events between heats for the same reason.

That happened day 1 when Thor dropped the farmers on his foot and people blamed his injured foot on the yoke weights being wrong.


He didn't drop anything on his foot. He tore his fascia plantar

Licis seemed to struggle with the double dumbell a bit in training

Are we back in 2004, overhead medley with max weight 167 kg log.

And all this format, last man standing stone, 5 events final... not good.

Good job man. At this point i think for Thor and Shaw the competition is over. Probably Liscis will get it, hes a good sqautter.

Not one event tests their actual max strength.

Squats i am not sure of the weight...but if 320kg and 15+ reps, not so great to see who is the strongest.

Rest are grip and moving, not particularly heavy
