Amazing support when benching for me and I really recommend them. i have used them heavily for many months, and they still look and perform like brand new. Getting quality merch on sale and supporting Brian is a win-win!
I hope we'll see for Brian one day still lifting heavy. I think if he lost the weight, and boxed Thor, he'd win in a landslide. He's got so many years of good muscle mass stored up.
Don't feel bad brother! I can rep 185 on OHP for a set or two and was stoked when I finally could. Brian and his colleagues can make dudes who rep 225 feel weak and small. They are the top tier of the most elite lifters on the planet. Keep going and keep lifting!
6'8 man and a 7' bar will look pretty close. I don't know how to tag him on TH-cam but would be curious if his wingspan would allow him to grip the barbell end to end cap, he looks really close. I'd say their are less men capable of that than men 7 feet or taller. Would explain why his deadlift is so good
Definitely punching above his weight. Need to be significantly heavier to be truly competitive, though. There should be height classes in this sport: perhaps one for 6 ft 3 and above, and another for shorter guys.
Gabe Pena, Jerry Pritchett, and Kevin Faires?! All guys that are amazing and kick ass. Kevin pound for pund I belive is one of the most impressive strongman out there. Very underrated and he put an impressive 20 rep quat at the Shaw classic. Big fan :))
Congrats Brian! After all these years following you, to see your business do so well, and your success continue is amazing. All while keeping your physical strength growing and keeping that positive can do attitude. Keep it up brother!
Cant believe its been 2 years already, First day I was able to I ordered the belt signed by you Brian! Doesn't fit anymore from the gains but still have it on the wall

Damn, much respect. Hope you're able to make a full recovery. I tore my hamstring 6 years ago. Good mornings and Romanian deadlifts are now my best friends.
@@Brachwah I have done it before for other major injuries and it boils down to consistency and a fixed technique for an abundance of time. 10lb dumbbells and front raises, lateral raises and side raises, for a few hundred reps a day. *The challenge is doing each for sets of 10 x 3, then rotating the hand and doing it for another 10 x 3, then a final rotation and the 10 x 3.* So that's no less than 270 reps, but I usually do 16s, 12s and 8 to 12 for my 3rd set, so I will be going far beyond 270. The methods of PT that will produce tremendous repair to an injury are the king of training standards. When I am done though, I will be a wall of muscle and my numbers for any serious lift should be way higher than over the last 4 years of dedicated strength training. I was doing 405lb shrugs behind the back with a spider web of trap tears having frozen most of my neck, and I didn't know it.
I'm 38. Just purchased a Titan fitness power rack. Plan to make some big changes with excercise and eating better to try and get myself into a much healthier lifestyle. May have to shop for some Evolution Athletics gear. Brian among others has been a huge inspiration behind these changes. Appreciate you!
@@hassanzafar6697 I just don’t think there is anything wrong with a traditional log, Axel, or even a Viking press. I do appreciate them trying to do something different.
@@e.c.9468 that’s what I’m saying. Not a fan of this event. I find it ironic the Arnold’s used a camber bar for squats. cuz strongman are big guys and it’s probably hard to get into a good behind the neck position. So let’s use a bar that takes stress off the shoulder and elbow. And WSM is like screw it let’s get them in that position and press a ton of weight from there.
Gotta love snatch training!!! I did these this morning after doing snatch pulls, hang snatch, and snatch jerk. This is one of these movements that develops rate of force production as an accessory. Remember not to over train, the reps have to be about quality and appropriate stresses.
Thank you Mr Shaw I finally got back in the jym yesterday! Thank s to you sir!! Your very inspirational!! You make me feel great working out!! Shaw Strenght!!! Yessssss!!!!!!!
Look at how high the bar goes when Brian puts it above his head, like a full 12" compared to Kevin's 6" and his elbows are nearly at the height of the boxes. That's how long his arms are. His size can be an advantage but a lot of the time it can also be a disadvantage.
Great timing with this video while I workout on my shoulders so I added this in my third excercise except I only went up to 225lbs for 3reps 2 sets. Thanks for the motivation. Please get that 5th title Brian.

Did i hear kid rocks American Badass ?
Brian's celebration after clearing that small ramp with the forklift had me laughing out loud 😂
Right?!?!?! Haha, it looked like one of his post event fist pumps!!!!
Lmaooo. Me too 😂
That ÿëš was amazing hah
Fork lift plus 400 pounds up an incline over loose gravel. Love it
Never saw anyone get a run up in a forklift before. Like he was a kid making a jump for their bike
I love how much you can tell Brain loves strength and being a strongman its really inspiring.
I hope we'll see for Brian one day still lifting heavy. I think if he lost the weight, and boxed Thor, he'd win in a landslide. He's got so many years of good muscle mass stored up.
@@sleepyjo9340 age gap is large
@@Fohnzii none the less, if he got ripped he'd look like an absolute unit.
Yessirrrrrrrr
I did overhead press today too.... got myself 120 for 5 and was pretty happy. Then I watched this video.
When it comes to WSM mere mortals(99.9% of us) need not apply. It's very inspiring and humbling all at the same time.
If you're happy and improving, the numbers don't matter. Good going
Overhead Press is a tough lift to progress. As long as your numbers are going up, who cares?
Not sure why people care about what others lift should be you vs. Previous you always and only

The most impressive thing with this video is the fact that an olympic barbell look pretty small when resting on Brian's back...
Yeah, Brian's snatch grip would be about a foot wider than the bar shaft lets him go!

Decent in my dreams 😆
Love watching Brian operate heavy machinery
He is a heavy machine himself
Almost looks like he was driving a clown car
Cant believe its been two years already! So happy for You, Keri and the rest of team shaw, and the gains you've made on all fronts.
Kevin is really good! Gets underestimated because he is not the largest strongman but he outperforms his size.

@@Pedant_Patrol id say more so weight classes like everything else
@@michaelmayo2489 Strongman has weight classes.
There shouldn’t be classes for height because there are advantages for tall guys and advantages for short guys
@@CWPWWRESTLING exactly! Novikov is small, but He is one of the best strongman at the moment

One of my favorite strongman. I yelled “Cmon Breakfast!” At the Shaw Classic. Lol
Seriously put those Rogue boxes to the test! Awesome video as always
For real that made me nervous lol
These dudes casually reppin weights that would crush me. every day!
Congrats Brian! After all these years following you, to see your business do so well, and your success continue is amazing. All while keeping your physical strength growing and keeping that positive can do attitude. Keep it up brother!
Thank you for the inspiration, Brian! congratulations on the milestone
Kevin is an animal. The amount of power he can pack into his (relatively) smaller frame is ungodly. He is a huge inspiration to me
Excited for you big guy. Remember keep your gas tank healthy for speed events and I know you can get another title! 💪
The human forklift driving a forklift...the multiverse has collided!
He could just have lifted it over
I'm always hyped to watch these videos man
Big dudes lifting heavy, with Limp Bizkit, Hatebreed, Pantera
This is the best part of life right there
same...I'm a big fan of Brian's music choices
Cant believe its been 2 years already, First day I was able to I ordered the belt signed by you Brian! Doesn't fit anymore from the gains but still have it on the wall
Can’t wait to watch you win another WSM title… you are the best ever and full of motivation and inspiration
09:00 the look on Kevin's face when Brian said starting point was priceless 🤣
These heroes are overhead pressing people's deadlifts 😂. Nicely done!
Yeah, just working back into it....ya know, with 425 Lbs...lol.
I really hope you become and win the 5th Title of WSM this year
LET'S GO BRIAN 5X SOON :D
You can tell in his overall demeanor that is is not playing around. He wants it. Licks is looking good as well and Novikov, but Brian isn't done yet.
Brian Shaw motivating me while workouts is something I would legit pay for ...
Brian with the best playlist as usual
5 titles, 5 titles, 5 titles.
Kev telling B to “control the chaos” immediately made me think of the Witcher and now I see Brian as Yennefer.
Building / expanding your business - check. Hard workout with friends-check. Looks like a great day at the office to me!
You have been having some great strongman guests. KEVIN FAIRES went beast mode at the Shaw Classic on the Bronco squat.
I normally do behind the neck press after ohp and it develops massive shoulders
All these videos are so intense to watch they are brilliant mate!!! Putting in the work big time!
When the lifting capacity of the forklift climbs into the driver seat
WOOOOOOO!!!! so glad to see all the growth and its been TWO FREAKING YEARS!!!! congrats

Been keen to see more of what Kevin can do, thanks B!
Kevin always impresses me, his strength levels for his height and weight are amazing!
Am I the only person not excited for a potential behind the neck press? Just seems like a really good way to Subluxe a shoulder.
Yeah a really weird event but at the same time a good callback to the wsm 90s
Yh would’ve preferred something else

I wore my Championship Mindset through surgery on the 1st. Love the tee shirt and the message it brings.
Is the wide grip really the best way to go?
I loved watching your content for years
Good job Brian👏 you are making progres,now this is world strongest man 2022,big fan ,i love you❤
I always appreciate your content. Inspirational and informative. Thank you.
My favorite part of these videos is seeing how many of my favorite pros have the same songs on their workout playlists
Shout out to the rogue wooden boxes holding all of those weights slamming on top of them
You mean the boxes that practically fall over every time they drop the weights on them?
We love💗 the Shaw Family too. Thanks for sharing your video 💪😀👍

Possibly one of the most underrated strongmen competing. Brian bringing the top young competition in. Smart again.
Kevin has the most internally rotated shoulders I’ve ever seen
Mad props on indestructable shoulders Brian... those behind the neck presses make mine hurt just watching.
My boy Kev doin his thing on the big stage. Happy for you Kev. Way to rep for Provo.
Brian do one leg day video man
Those boxes are anxiety-inducing when they tilt inwards
Great Collab Brian. Kevin you are looking great can't always awesome watching you compete, looking forward to seeing you at Worlds
I can imagine Brian’s offer would be I want you to guest in my podcast, in return, you get to train in my gym
Awesome seeing you and my cousin Kevin hanging out.
Brian, how do you make a forklift look small??!!
By doing lots of another kind of fork lift.
Them tunes are kicking ass!
Thank you Mr Shaw I finally got back in the jym yesterday! Thank s to you sir!! Your very inspirational!! You make me feel great working out!! Shaw Strenght!!! Yessssss!!!!!!!
Kevin keeping up with Brian says a lot considering the difference in size!
It always sounds nice when Brian says nice.💪
You can build a bar that can go into those open slats to hold the boxes apart.
bro out here shoulder pressing my max deadlift
These guys are behemoths in a positive way 💪😎🤘I love these videos it makes me want to start lifting again myself 👍
I love the intensity from Brian!
I blew my shoulder out watching this video
Looked like a lot of pain to me! I was waiting for those wooden boxes to splinter.
eh, they look like two layers of 3/4 so they ain't gonna break anytime soon... falling over though, that's what I was afraid of
Would be nice knowing the weight as u go up.
Holy shit! Why are those boxes sooo unstable?
Kev is the man!
Would be cool if there was captions edited into the video for each weight lifted because some of us don’t know how easy Shaw makes the weights look.
Why is everybody doing these behind the neck presses? I’ve seen it from like every major strongman lately.
Love Brian’s taste is music 🤘
Brian so tall and big his range of motion makes it look like he's pushing it up twice as far.
Luv u Brian, cant wait to see you take number 5!!!
You should add electric callboy - pump it to your gym Playlist. Ultimate gym song haha.
cool, rarely see this lift these days. my pr is 180 kg.
Prove it.
I’m just pitcher Brian 40 yrs from now as an old man driving around in his forklift helping his kids build probably another gym.
The taste and samplings of workout music in this video are excellent.
Awesome pressing prowess 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Grip challenge between Brian and Kevin?
I never thought I'd see a man of Brian's size on a forklift.
thats some big power -Top session
The craziest part about this is Oleksiy Torokhtiy did this too
Always cool seeing you do these lifts, gotta ask tho why you use a mouth guard?.
Brian on that forklift is like when you choose donkey Kong in Mario kart
Brian LOVES the forklift 🤣

This video makes me want a Brian/Lasha colab video!
Faires seems by all accounts to be a great competitor and person. Thanks for sharing.
I see the gym is filling up with Rogue equipment,,, Very nice
the guy that formed that concrete is somewhere with his hands itching, he knows someone is abusing his freshly made edging hahaha
Is pressing from behind your head more beneficial than pressing from in front / what’s the difference is it better for strength ?
They are doing it for WSM
Brian is a strongman, a father, has got some money and is also forklift certified. Man has reached the limit of being a man.
