A few weird things in my opinion, why do an unrack and walk back on a deadlift and not just starting from the ground? Also on the bench it was 10kg jumps and when he was about to hit a pr he jumps 15kg!? ... the last jump should never be higher than all those before. And on the squat after seeing the 80kg there was no way he should have attempted 100kg. ... I don't wanna hate or anything, he is doing amazing at only 11 years old, he has a bright future a head of him with a lot of pr's
Yeah it makes no sense, don't know what Eddie is doing to him. That 110 kg deadlift was definitely a max effort for him, shouldn't have done 120 kg (which he didn't since he had help), and definitely shouldn't have gone from fucking 60 kg to 75 kg on bench.

Agree, I know Eddie is a prime deadlifter and know what he's doing. But at this age and the way he lifts the kid is going to ruin his back before the age of 20.
Even at 60kg Squat he is too high and not hitting depth on the Squat. The deadlift is painful to watch, horrible technique which will injure him. So sad. That total means nothing, it’s really not his total at all.
@@novak905 ah nah bro the kid is fine the weight his lifting of 18 years old girls who strength training which is normal cuz he have the same test and estrogen level as them cuz he didnt hit puberty yet

Dude I'm 17 and my max is 75kg after 2 years of training, this kid is a maniac (I'm also pretty small, about 158cm and 45kg) and impressive kid none the less
Eddie, you're destroying your son... He could he a slipped disc and he wouldn't tell you because he doesn't want to let you down. Been watching this channel a while now. I study phycology. He does not enjoy deadlifting. Max's back is injuried right now. Like not just sore but it is damaged...
I couldn’t agree more, I posted a similar comment and then checked to see if anyone else was on the same page. Please stop with this and build slowly with perfect form and technique 🙏
how do you know he's not just camera shy in that moment, or disapointed bc he thought he could lift it, or another reason... If you look at me when i deadlift, you'd probably think i hate it too. It's a hard lift, you're not gonna be smiling a lot but that doesn't mean you hate it.
@@sigmaloki It doesn't work like that. He may think he doesn't put pressure on max, but he actually does without knowing it. If your dad is the best strongman in the world, you want to be the best strongmannin the world too.
Thing is if anyone has any genuine concerns, Eddie just thinks you're a hater and he knows better. It's valid points. Eddie wants the ego boost more than max does imo, no need for it.
Ur an idiot... It's perfectly fine lifting at 11 years old... Lit no problems at all if done right... Also hes worlds strongest fuckin man... He knows wtf he's doing... He's smarter and better at it then u my guy
Great Job on the hard work Max! Here's some advice from an absolute nobody on the internet who's injured himself many times (me!): You have a LONG time to get strong, lifting big number at a young age is cool and everything but the no1 thing that kills an athlete's career is injury. Great PB's but I would advise taking a step back, work on that form, train for longevity and enjoy being young! If you can bullet proof your joints and nail that form you will be an unstoppable force to be reckoned with! Big Love from the under qualified internet nobody :)
I'm literally a nobody, I just injured myself a lot when I was young lifting too heavy too fast and I saw most of my progress once I slowed things down a bit Mr Max is more than welcome to ignore my advice, after all his Coach/Dad is more qualified than I'll ever be
Just by seeing your progression we know you will be a beast sooner than later. Continue the good work and don't hesitate to build your foundation before your strength. You are still growing and it's not a bad thing to focus on your tempo-eccentric and your resistance. Sometimes it helps to just be ready with those big lifts. Anyway i'm happy to follow you and your dad. You are really really inspiring to watch.
Time to lower the weights and work on form for a few months. Some of these lifts were really rough to watch. One bad experience can sour a kids interest.
Just want to say as a registered child psychologist that Max frequently looks confused and always looking to please his father, in a very obedient way. After every lift Eddie has to put a little feedback in there. Be careful you aren’t forcing your own interests on a vulnerable mind and creating him impossible standards of self worth which can only be reached by pleasing his father. I’m sure there are many activities to bond with a child such as playing football, swimming etc. I’ll get hate for this, but it’s what 99% of people are thinking and don’t have the balls to say. I have my own children, and I let them express who they are and I guide them and mentor them in their own interests, rather than pushing my own on them. In any case, let’s hope lovely Max grows up with more humility and less arrogance than his father. Max, you are good enough as you are.
You’re a dead set w⚓️ Max is the one who asked to train in the first place. And if you look at footage of max’s behaviour when he was younger before training the difference is night and day. It’s sh#t dribbling idiots like you who are arrogant with your holier than thou bullsh#t. The kid simply wants to train with his dad.
Deadlift form was atrocious, and he should have known with wobbly knees at 80 on the squat, 90 was about the limit. Pushing his son to do 100 instead of 95 is braindead. Max didn’t even have proper depth on the 80kg squat. In competition, he would have to knock many kgs off to avoid a failed lift.
Kid needs to build a base and coordintion. Takes a long time to be the worlds strongest. You need to be the mature one Eddie. Its nice to see your kids progress, but dont be greedy
Let’s be honest Maxes form on every exercise is awful but because Eddie is World Strongest Man ever says he knows what he is doing when realistically he is destroying maxes body
100%. More people should be saying this. I just went on a rant commenting on this video about the exact same thing. Regardless if Eddie is a former WSM, his coaching and advice is appalling.
@@dylanjohns8409 i have been saying this for years. eddie hall doesnt know how to train. his coaching and advice is trash and is built around his extremely gifted genetics
Bless you both I just lost my father and when I see this the boy is very lucky with his father as was I. One day you will also look back and realise how lucky you are with your father! God bless you both
Man this was absolutely awful to watch, this is to a degree child abuse, I don’t think Eddie hall is even realizing what he’s doing, he’s hell bent on making max as strong as he can be. Mixing in pills in his food next or what?
It's sad because the back gives zero warning before it goes. he can go from being the strongest kid in his school to the weakest over night. i hope eddie hall reads these comments and changes the way his son trains. just the 20kg bar alone is already an overkill for an 11 year old
you are right ! Pushing a 11 year old this way is abuse for God sake ! Its not father love at all.....Must he become a better version than him ? Let a kid be a kid....This is not a sport for an 11 year old.....
Eddie you gotta fix his form man, his lower back was already set too high before even pulling, the amount of strain on his back during that lift is scary, please lower the weight for him so he doesn't hurt himself
It's called adversity, builds character and discipline. At his age it's not about the weights it's about building a strong mind. Would you rather him baby the kid and then he grows up into a lazy drug addict like a lot of rich kids these days?
@@StepLucch I’m not talking about that, he’s pushing too much weight is what I mean, and acting weirdly proud of him like he actually hit the weights when he didn’t, creating false hope and bad habits.
Dude what that’s how you train? Are you dumb don’t disrespect him as a dad let alone a trainer get the fuck off this channel he’s not “Pushing this kid to hard” and the only thing he cares about is his health get the fuck on buddy. Good shit Eddie and max 👍🏼
I know I’m late, but wanted to wish you a very happy Birthday! Keep up the great work,these memories will one day be priceless when we all see you become Wolds Strongest Man 💪💪💪
His joints and vertebrae cushions will be screwed if he keeps pushing numbers. Many Olympic Powerlifters that started really young have that issue. Like many comments here said, focus more on building a foundation and technique.
Happy Birthday for tomorrow Max 🎉🎉🎉 and Very Very well done on your current lifts sir! Watching your videos is really helping to move my own life forward for the better after years of doing nothing and feeling sorry for myself with my degenerative disc disease. You have helped me to want to make myself better. Keep going dude. Thank you for sharing you journey, I'm sure you'll have helped more people than just me 💪💪💪🤙🎩
I’m sorry Eddy but you’re kid is rounding his back and not following proper technique because its to heavy for him If he keeps doing this he will definitely injure himself and never reach his full potential Stop pushing him to pick up more than he can handle. You should know that this takes years to perfect and build strength but all this takes proper technique I know that you will roll your eyes. Step back and reevaluate yourself and take a step back and help your kid not hurt himself
Rounding your back is how you should deadlift, stop being a glassback. Injuries happen because you never deadlift with a rounded back and when you do, your back is not ready for it.
I think maybe pushed him a bit too hard here, form incorrect on a lot of exercises that can lead to irritated and fucked up joints in thr future if he keeps going like that with that form
Kudos to you Mx Beat Jr! Ber careful of your back. Give it rest when needed. I use to carry and pick up 500 plus ponds in the work I did as a young man. I hurt my back and continue to work though the pain. I had to because it was my work. Today my back is full of arthritis and I now have a deep brain stimulator in my lower back to help me walk and keep the pain down.
Somebody should put a stop to this child abuse. It's great that he trains with his dad, but with that form and with those all too heavy weights he'll injure himself. I'm quite surprised he hasn't already. And what an earth was that PT or other people thinking watching this happening at the place?! Are they afraid of Eddie to say nothing, or what?
Wow Max, you are amazing, don't give this up even if you don't want to go into strongman, wish my dad had gave me a push in this direction. Have seen a massive improvement on not just your attitude but your concentration levels aswell, great to see, all my love to you and your family, hope to see more soon 👍
true we used to play rugby against a kid at this ages he was a tank and so built more then Max we feared him once he got to the ages of 16 his body was fucked.. he never played rugby again and I am sure he had development issues with his body....
will not hurt him, it will serve him well later on in life if done correctly , I've been lifting weights since I was 8 years old I'm 58 now, it has saved me many times in life, I've always been healthy and strong and it builds discipline . and who better to teach him then his father who also happens to be a genetic freak and worlds strongest man.
Bro you got plenty of years to get to where you want to be, day of gym could really end the rest of your life with a simple back injury 😢 it’s the deadlifts I’m more worried about.
being a good athlete doesn't mean you are a good coach. This is why the top athletes get the top coaches to help them You cannot justify bad form simply because "his dad is the beast" and he won WSM so he knows what he's doing... By that logic I cannot critique anything unless I'm a top athlete. Also it would be fine for Michael Phelps to throw a toddler in the deep end because he's the greatest swimmer of all time so knows what he's doing.... Eddie really needs to stop this bad form before an injury happens. Imagine getting chronic pain for life in your teenage years from ego lifting to impress your dad. Likewise Eddie needs to think on this too. Imagine your child getting injured and you had a good chance to prevent it. Yes he's strong but the forms bad and that means a big injury risk. If it was any other person people would pounce to point it out
Yeah man it’s not worth it…. I made this mistake in my teen years and hit some crazy numbers for my age but now have injuries that bother me on the daily. Wish I could go back in time with what I know now.
This is never right. Single rep maximums with big weights, poor form, unrealistic jumps, and just 11 years old. I've seen youngsters attempt daft stuff in the gym before, but not under the supervision of someone who should know better. The lad already has a bad back and arm and he's attempting silly lifts to no good purpose other than to get TH-cam views. Hopefully this doesn't end really badly.
coming in a week late to see the video, hope you had a great birthday maximus. Those were some great lifts. Your dad should make a video on how to spot people, too many people nowadays will grab and pull up when all you need is a pound or two of assistance.
Happy Birthday Max! 🎉 You’re incredible to watch and Im excited to see where you’ll take this. Don’t let the old man push you too hard and keep working on your form! You have the rest of your life to add the weight. Form is more important for you now. Get the technique perfected and you’ll be unstoppable in a few years and take home all the gold.
it's not in any 11 year old to lift anything remotley close to this. just the bar alone is enough at this age as long as the form is correct and even that im not going to get my 11 year old to do rather push ups and sit ups and running
@@bigpig88 No he does actually have a mutation in his MTSN gene, which is the hercules gene. It allows him to reap the benefits of excess muscle growth but with the cost to his bone structure, speed and stamina. I don't think his son has it, no, his bodytype doesn't indicate that at all. Usually people that are born with this are naturally shredded from childhood.
There just extreme endomorphs combined with shorter lifespans hence why earlier puberty. Without steroids I doubt Eddie hall would be that extraordinary
13:48 The gym is an amazing outlet after my mom passed away I was in the gym all day and the owner started talking to me because he realized I'd been there all day and he gave me a whole year membership for free after I told him what was going on. The gym helped me a lot, the gym is therapy.

@@gez1972 i started lifting at 16 and was a stickman so i was always kinda behind my potential on my lifts, i did all of those my first few weeks lifting at 70kg bodyweight
The thing most people don’t appreciate about weights imo is that as the weight goes up, it puts an exponential not linear stress on the body. 200kg is not just twice as hard as 100kg.
Max is coming outta his shell. When he was first on cam he was so nervous and shy. Now he's more confident and becoming a great young man. He's got the right person as a farther.

the weight his lifting of 18 years old girls
who strength training which is normal cuz he have the same test and estrogen level as them cuz he didnt hit puberty yet
Weight lifting ages u faster than cardio
that 75kg on the bench is insane at 11! The way he can keep pushing when hitting failure instead of just giving up is great too. Well impressed Max! and happy birthday
that was not a 75kg bench lool.
Ok 74kg then. How much could you bench at 11? How much can you bench right now? 😂

75kg bench at 11 is wild🤣🤣 i know a lad whos been going to the gym for 2 years and cant do that and hes 18! very impressive
hes not training correctly for hypertrophy then
@@woahrocket hes naturally pretty small but you are probably right. most people my age half arse gyming either dont eat properly or dont train properly or both
@@woahrocket Not necessarily some people just took an L at birth lol. I've got a 20 yr old friend who only just benched 75kg after ~2 years. He started out at 50kg bw, bulked up to 75kg and has a 6'3" wingspan @6'1" tall. Horrific bench genetics but is approaching a 4 plate deadlift
Dude I'm 17 and my max is 75kg after 2 years of training, this kid is a maniac (I'm also pretty small, about 158cm and 45kg) and impressive kid none the less
Ikr!? I did 80 kg when I was 15
Super impressive. Gread job Max. I'll continue to follow your progress religiously. Can't wait to see it!
Eddie, you're destroying your son...
He could he a slipped disc and he wouldn't tell you because he doesn't want to let you down.
Been watching this channel a while now. I study phycology. He does not enjoy deadlifting.
Max's back is injuried right now. Like not just sore but it is damaged...
I couldn’t agree more, I posted a similar comment and then checked to see if anyone else was on the same page. Please stop with this and build slowly with perfect form and technique 🙏
how do you know he's not just camera shy in that moment, or disapointed bc he thought he could lift it, or another reason...
If you look at me when i deadlift, you'd probably think i hate it too. It's a hard lift, you're not gonna be smiling a lot but that doesn't mean you hate it.
Eddie dosent put any pressure on him to do this. This is said and shown in many videos on eddies and maxes channel
@@sigmaloki It doesn't work like that. He may think he doesn't put pressure on max, but he actually does without knowing it. If your dad is the best strongman in the world, you want to be the best strongmannin the world too.
Tbh he looks happy, just concentrated and tired
Subtract 5 from the bench, and 10 from the deadlift and squat, then you have his real numbers.
Why?
Definitely take more than 10lbs off the deadlift and far more for the squat
@@gopromaster8169 I was talking about KG buddy. He's lifting KG, he's in the UK. Meaning multiply by 2.2
@@N3RDYLICIOUS ohh ok yea mb

bro will never be as strong as you because he’s gonna have a broken back by the time he’s 13

Thing is if anyone has any genuine concerns, Eddie just thinks you're a hater and he knows better. It's valid points. Eddie wants the ego boost more than max does imo, no need for it.
HE’S AN EGO-MANIAC
Ur an idiot... It's perfectly fine lifting at 11 years old... Lit no problems at all if done right... Also hes worlds strongest fuckin man... He knows wtf he's doing... He's smarter and better at it then u my guy
Great Job on the hard work Max!
Here's some advice from an absolute nobody on the internet who's injured himself many times (me!):
You have a LONG time to get strong, lifting big number at a young age is cool and everything but the no1 thing that kills an athlete's career is injury.
Great PB's but I would advise taking a step back, work on that form, train for longevity and enjoy being young!
If you can bullet proof your joints and nail that form you will be an unstoppable force to be reckoned with!
Big Love from the under qualified internet nobody :)
his dad was number 1 in the world in unbelievable lifts who tf are yall to tell him how to train and also its a pr who keeps perfect form on a pr
I'm literally a nobody, I just injured myself a lot when I was young lifting too heavy too fast and I saw most of my progress once I slowed things down a bit
Mr Max is more than welcome to ignore my advice, after all his Coach/Dad is more qualified than I'll ever be
What's the purpose of taking the DL off the rack, dropping it, lifting it and carrying back to the rack?
none
It's a strongman thing
To easily add plates to the bar
@@Hyper_DX not sure if its realy " easily" with your one repmax
@@Hyper_DXThat's true but it's also possibly the difference between hitting a PB or not.
ed is too arrogant to listen to a youtube comment but he is ruining his son.
Just by seeing your progression we know you will be a beast sooner than later. Continue the good work and don't hesitate to build your foundation before your strength. You are still growing and it's not a bad thing to focus on your tempo-eccentric and your resistance. Sometimes it helps to just be ready with those big lifts. Anyway i'm happy to follow you and your dad. You are really really inspiring to watch.
Time to lower the weights and work on form for a few months. Some of these lifts were really rough to watch. One bad experience can sour a kids interest.
I agree
he needs to take off everything just the bar alone
Well done Max! Must be fun hanging out with your dad and getting stronger in the process.
Just want to say as a registered child psychologist that Max frequently looks confused and always looking to please his father, in a very obedient way. After every lift Eddie has to put a little feedback in there. Be careful you aren’t forcing your own interests on a vulnerable mind and creating him impossible standards of self worth which can only be reached by pleasing his father.
I’m sure there are many activities to bond with a child such as playing football, swimming etc.
I’ll get hate for this, but it’s what 99% of people are thinking and don’t have the balls to say.
I have my own children, and I let them express who they are and I guide them and mentor them in their own interests, rather than pushing my own on them. In any case, let’s hope lovely Max grows up with more humility and less arrogance than his father.
Max, you are good enough as you are.
Totally agree100%
Uneducated comment. Eddie literally said at the end of the video he'll love him no matter what he does and Max is his own man
I agree but it seems he likes it🤷🏼♂️
You’re a dead set w⚓️
Max is the one who asked to train in the first place.
And if you look at footage of max’s behaviour when he was younger before training the difference is night and day.
It’s sh#t dribbling idiots like you who are arrogant with your holier than thou bullsh#t.
The kid simply wants to train with his dad.
registered? You're not allowed to be within 500 feet of children! Who are you to give a father advice on his son?!
Eddie is pushing him so hard, that by the time he is 18, the kid will be fed up with the gym, and will want to be a Librarian.
Gonna be like Ronnie Coleman in no time! ( Wheelchair bound )
Congrats Max! I loved the short talk at the end. Channel your energy into anything positive you want in life. You will get very far.
Deadlift form was atrocious, and he should have known with wobbly knees at 80 on the squat, 90 was about the limit. Pushing his son to do 100 instead of 95 is braindead. Max didn’t even have proper depth on the 80kg squat. In competition, he would have to knock many kgs off to avoid a failed lift.
Man is an actual BEAST, he is decently far ahead of me when I was at his age but I cant me surprised with such an amazing coach! Keep going man!
Kid needs to build a base and coordintion. Takes a long time to be the worlds strongest. You need to be the mature one Eddie. Its nice to see your kids progress, but dont be greedy
I love watching you two work together, and seeing the progress. This is awesome!
Bros gonna fuck up his body.
Looking forward to seeing the progression over the next decade. With a good teacher, the same genetics, the same work ethic...you'll be unstoppable.
bros been 11 years old for 3 years now
Kids a freak of nature in the best way! The disapline and having a wsm at your trainer! Big things ahead for maximus. Well done everyone involved
Let’s be honest Maxes form on every exercise is awful but because Eddie is World Strongest Man ever says he knows what he is doing when realistically he is destroying maxes body
Finally someone sees this. Eddie is destroying max's body
100%. More people should be saying this. I just went on a rant commenting on this video about the exact same thing. Regardless if Eddie is a former WSM, his coaching and advice is appalling.
Just because ur father was worlds strongest man doesnt mean u will be
@@indene4033 I know that is my point Eddie is forcing new PRS each time when Max can’t even lift his last PR without help
@@dylanjohns8409 i have been saying this for years. eddie hall doesnt know how to train. his coaching and advice is trash and is built around his extremely gifted genetics
Bless you both I just lost my father and when I see this the boy is very lucky with his father as was I. One day you will also look back and realise how lucky you are with your father! God bless you both
Man this was absolutely awful to watch, this is to a degree child abuse, I don’t think Eddie hall is even realizing what he’s doing, he’s hell bent on making max as strong as he can be.
Mixing in pills in his food next or what?
It's sad because the back gives zero warning before it goes. he can go from being the strongest kid in his school to the weakest over night. i hope eddie hall reads these comments and changes the way his son trains. just the 20kg bar alone is already an overkill for an 11 year old
@fredrikandersson3885 As extreme a claim as you have just made, I agree with you.
you are right ! Pushing a 11 year old this way is abuse for God sake ! Its not father love at all.....Must he become a better version than him ? Let a kid be a kid....This is not a sport for an 11 year old.....
@@pleun315 100%
cant wait to see how strong he will be once he hits puberty
please teach him better form tho, dont make him ego lift a weight he cant because that will cause back problems at 15
Eddie you gotta fix his form man, his lower back was already set too high before even pulling, the amount of strain on his back during that lift is scary, please lower the weight for him so he doesn't hurt himself
Eddie legit said “Do not stop pulling, never stop pulling”
Eddies ego is getting the better of him and he’s taking it out on his son.
Happy Birthday Max 🎉🎁🎊🎂🎈. Following in your Dads footsteps. Can’t wait to watch your journey with lifting and how strong you become.
Bro Eddie giving me weird vibes atm, pushing him too hard and trying to “create” something rather than caring about his son’s health.. very strange
He's not
It's called adversity, builds character and discipline. At his age it's not about the weights it's about building a strong mind.
Would you rather him baby the kid and then he grows up into a lazy drug addict like a lot of rich kids these days?
@@StepLucch I’m not talking about that, he’s pushing too much weight is what I mean, and acting weirdly proud of him like he actually hit the weights when he didn’t, creating false hope and bad habits.
Yeah, a little unsafe, at times. He doesn't need to sink or swim before hitting puberty.
Dude what that’s how you train? Are you dumb don’t disrespect him as a dad let alone a trainer get the fuck off this channel he’s not “Pushing this kid to hard” and the only thing he cares about is his health get the fuck on buddy. Good shit Eddie and max 👍🏼
Happy bday Max legend in the making! Big love from the netherlands and keep up the Good work mate

@@Reviews360Game It's a myth that weight training can negatively affect you while you're growing.

Horrid form to be teaching an 11 year old
I know I’m late, but wanted to wish you a very happy Birthday! Keep up the great work,these memories will one day be priceless when we all see you become Wolds Strongest Man 💪💪💪
His joints and vertebrae cushions will be screwed if he keeps pushing numbers.
Many Olympic Powerlifters that started really young have that issue. Like many comments here said, focus more on building a foundation and technique.
Happy Birthday for tomorrow Max 🎉🎉🎉 and Very Very well done on your current lifts sir! Watching your videos is really helping to move my own life forward for the better after years of doing nothing and feeling sorry for myself with my degenerative disc disease. You have helped me to want to make myself better. Keep going dude. Thank you for sharing you journey, I'm sure you'll have helped more people than just me 💪💪💪🤙🎩
Thank your dad for me too please.✊
I’m sorry Eddy but you’re kid is rounding his back and not following proper technique because its to heavy for him
If he keeps doing this he will definitely injure himself and never reach his full potential
Stop pushing him to pick up more than he can handle.
You should know that this takes years to perfect and build strength but all this takes proper technique
I know that you will roll your eyes. Step back and reevaluate yourself and take a step back and help your kid not hurt himself
way to heavy it should be atleast 3 times lighter
Rounding your back is how you should deadlift, stop being a glassback.
Injuries happen because you never deadlift with a rounded back and when you do, your back is not ready for it.
Do U have a bad back son ?
" Yeah "
Well , here's 120 kg do that 😅😅😅😂
You call this lifts a lift ?? Half reps plus daddy help
True😂
Remember that he's a kid and may be reading this. We all know what's what but go and tell Eddie that on his channel.
forget lifts it's dangerous at his age and the form displayed here
Why disrespect the kid as a grown man ? You need to reevaluate the way you think bro . All of those bad movements were do to his father
Imagine coming to the gym first time and seeing this kid lifting this heavy
I think maybe pushed him a bit too hard here, form incorrect on a lot of exercises that can lead to irritated and fucked up joints in thr future if he keeps going like that with that form
Yesssss
"Do you have a bad back?" - "Yeah..."
I wonder why
That kid is not gonna be able to move by the time he's 18
Ikr
Why 💀💀
Literally how does lifting do anything but help your movement? Give me one piece of evidence supporting that
@@callam4336 Lifting with poor form will fuck your movement. If you can't realize that without "evidence" then you're a fucking idiot.
@@callam4336his technique is trash
Kudos to you Mx Beat Jr! Ber careful of your back. Give it rest when needed. I use to carry and pick up 500 plus ponds in the work I did as a young man. I hurt my back and continue to work though the pain. I had to because it was my work. Today my back is full of arthritis and I now have a deep brain stimulator in my lower back to help me walk and keep the pain down.
Somebody should put a stop to this child abuse. It's great that he trains with his dad, but with that form and with those all too heavy weights he'll injure himself. I'm quite surprised he hasn't already. And what an earth was that PT or other people thinking watching this happening at the place?! Are they afraid of Eddie to say nothing, or what?
Wow Max, you are amazing, don't give this up even if you don't want to go into strongman, wish my dad had gave me a push in this direction. Have seen a massive improvement on not just your attitude but your concentration levels aswell, great to see, all my love to you and your family, hope to see more soon 👍
Eddie what the f*** are you doing, stop, you will hurt him.
IKR!! Crippling his son for TH-cam clout? Unreal - think Thor must have given Eddie brain damage…
true we used to play rugby against a kid at this ages he was a tank and so built more then Max we feared him once he got to the ages of 16 his body was fucked.. he never played rugby again and I am sure he had development issues with his body....
Shut up
will not hurt him, it will serve him well later on in life if done correctly , I've been lifting weights since I was 8 years old I'm 58 now, it has saved me many times in life, I've always been healthy and strong and it builds discipline . and who better to teach him then his father who also happens to be a genetic freak and worlds strongest man.
@@johnsykes4414 exactly 🫡
Few days late but Happy Birthday Bud! Keep it up You're smashing it!
Surely that cannot but good for a 12yr old to lift that sort of weight, especially on that deadlift.
Weight is okay for any age as long as there’s good form, there’s not good form here which is the issue.
He has passion and keeps pushing himself, this next decade will be interesting to watch
Bro you got plenty of years to get to where you want to be, day of gym could really end the rest of your life with a simple back injury 😢 it’s the deadlifts I’m more worried about.
I think Eddie knows that and will help him if he has poop form
@@Ashcheeks-s2jbased on the form In this video... no
Happy birthday Max, I couldn't do one single push-up when I was your age.
Well done mate!
being a good athlete doesn't mean you are a good coach. This is why the top athletes get the top coaches to help them
You cannot justify bad form simply because "his dad is the beast" and he won WSM so he knows what he's doing... By that logic I cannot critique anything unless I'm a top athlete. Also it would be fine for Michael Phelps to throw a toddler in the deep end because he's the greatest swimmer of all time so knows what he's doing....
Eddie really needs to stop this bad form before an injury happens. Imagine getting chronic pain for life in your teenage years from ego lifting to impress your dad. Likewise Eddie needs to think on this too. Imagine your child getting injured and you had a good chance to prevent it.
Yes he's strong but the forms bad and that means a big injury risk.
If it was any other person people would pounce to point it out
Yeah man it’s not worth it…. I made this mistake in my teen years and hit some crazy numbers for my age but now have injuries that bother me on the daily. Wish I could go back in time with what I know now.
Maximus you are blessed keep it up your relationship with your dad is phenomenal bravo bravo
This is never right. Single rep maximums with big weights, poor form, unrealistic jumps, and just 11 years old. I've seen youngsters attempt daft stuff in the gym before, but not under the supervision of someone who should know better. The lad already has a bad back and arm and he's attempting silly lifts to no good purpose other than to get TH-cam views. Hopefully this doesn't end really badly.
11:50 max is crying inside.
coming in a week late to see the video, hope you had a great birthday maximus. Those were some great lifts. Your dad should make a video on how to spot people, too many people nowadays will grab and pull up when all you need is a pound or two of assistance.
Eddies ego is gonna cripple his son 😕
Eventually yes
Yep. I really wanna see max doing some nice work in the future. But his dad might ruin any chances of that.
@@Chuckstrongmissourian Eddie Hall vs. Jake Paul in a boxing ring.....who wins ?
Happy Birthday Max! 🎉 You’re incredible to watch and Im excited to see where you’ll take this. Don’t let the old man push you too hard and keep working on your form! You have the rest of your life to add the weight. Form is more important for you now. Get the technique perfected and you’ll be unstoppable in a few years and take home all the gold.
That was hard to watch bruh injuris were close
For all wondering why Maximus isnt uploading new workout videos, he is currently writing a master thesis at age of 11 😂
NAH its jusf not in the kid. Dad forcing in upon him
it's not in any 11 year old to lift anything remotley close to this. just the bar alone is enough at this age as long as the form is correct and even that im not going to get my 11 year old to do rather push ups and sit ups and running
Happy birthday and great job in the gym crazy lifts show your dad who is the beast in the family 💪
Do you have your dads “hercules” gene?
Neither of them do they just have better genetics than most, eddie calls it the hercules gene for tv shows
@@bigpig88 Hasn't Eddie a rare condition that does not stop muscle growth at a certain stage? Like these belgian cows that are just muscle?
@@bigpig88 No he does actually have a mutation in his MTSN gene, which is the hercules gene. It allows him to reap the benefits of excess muscle growth but with the cost to his bone structure, speed and stamina. I don't think his son has it, no, his bodytype doesn't indicate that at all. Usually people that are born with this are naturally shredded from childhood.
There just extreme endomorphs combined with shorter lifespans hence why earlier puberty. Without steroids I doubt Eddie hall would be that extraordinary
@@ANTERIORcsHis son also has it, he said it twice in one video before
13:48 The gym is an amazing outlet after my mom passed away I was in the gym all day and the owner started talking to me because he realized I'd been there all day and he gave me a whole year membership for free after I told him what was going on. The gym helped me a lot, the gym is therapy.
strong kid jesus, i was benching 75 deadlifting 140 and squating 100 when i was 16 💀 and hes basically matching them before hes even fully hit puberty

Keep hammering on that form . You're even stronger than you realize
awsome to see that you have got much more control the reps max. Keep it up mate, you are doing great:)
Straight child abuse! Absolute horrible technique. Blown discs and neurosurgery before he can drive!
The thing most people don’t appreciate about weights imo is that as the weight goes up, it puts an exponential not linear stress on the body. 200kg is not just twice as hard as 100kg.
bro needs to fix his form man!
Max is coming outta his shell. When he was first on cam he was so nervous and shy. Now he's more confident and becoming a great young man. He's got the right person as a farther.
