it's more about anthropometry than height, chinese and russians select their lifters from childhood for short femurs relative to torso and short arms

you can have these proportions at any height, but they are more common in shorter people

unlike in powerlifting (where the deadlift benefits from long limbs) or strongman (dl, carries, all types of shit) where long limbs can be an advantage they're just total dogshit for weightlifting and will stop you from being competitive so the chinks and russians don't even waste their time with children who show those traits

I like how he seems to be apologizing for dropping blood all over the platform. What a nice guy

He's always smiling regardless of how he's doing when competing at the World's Strongest Man.

For me, its sterioids

Why does yelling make you stronger?

He looks very finnish

I prefer his other look desu

Russians select their lifters based on how long they can dope without getting caught.

My boss went drinking with Eddie Hall once before he got into strongman shit. They share a mutual friend. Apparently Eddie Hall is a total dickhead.

Sometimes when Mark Felix competes it looks like his eyes are gonna pop.

Best part of the first week of the summer olympics is weightlifting and archery - compelling shit for reasons I don't need to know or care to understand.

I'm sorry, could you repeat that? I couldn't hear your bragging over the sight of her ass.

>implying the power clean isn't easier than the full ROM clean

have anyone's needle holes ever started shooting blood during a lift?
I know some people bleed from their pimples

>bragging about being stronger than women
Do you also want a medal for being smarter than a Downy?

he could get an actual medal for being stronger than women if he changed his gender

He at least banters and gets on with his fellow strongmen competitors, unlike that Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson who fucks everyone off. That's one good thing about strongman competitions, everyone gets on and supports eachother.
