@@BigLozOfficial In terms of the natural feel of the conversation this one was right at the top. I'd never be averse to you having any of your guests on for a second round, but I could listen to you and Lalas together all day.
Honestly best interview so far, hes such a sound and down to earth man, maybe its because I'm Irish but he was honest and was open about his struggles. Lalas 👍 You should think about doing motivational talks in schools I know in donegal we'd listen.
This was one of my favorite interviews so far! Vitautas’s English was way better than I thought it was going to be and he had some great stories and insight into the sport. Loving this series, Loz!
I'd love to hear you talk to these guests about advice towards Kieliszkowski's deadlift, Novikov competing to much, how the hell is Shivlykov still walking let alone competing. lol I love that this is showcasing athletes we rarely hear from but I love to hear their opinions on the current crop as well. I never knew Vytautas spoke english this well until today. Which blows my mind. I have watched a ton of events for a long time. I had no idea. Obviously I hadn't watched enough. Edit: (got to what I was asking for, somewhat) Woot! Loved it when I got to you guys talking about other athletes!! Don't get me wrong I love the personal stories too. Somehow, I'm a sucker for the behind the scenes gossip.....which is odd because I fucking hate the Thor vs Eddie stuff.
I'm a fairly new strongman fan and hardly hear anything about him, I assumed it was because he's private and/or has poor english. Very wrong about the poor english.
Fantastic interview, could listen it for hours more. Lalas was a fantastic strongman and great athlete overall. Without injuries he could of easily take the torch from Savickas and win a few WSM titles. Anybody who follows Arnolds and WSM knows it could be argued Arnolds is harder just due to the sheer amount of weight they use for events. Just saw Savickas starting his own youtube channel which is also fantastic, he improved his english a lot! Anyways great interview and hope to see Lalas again and other strongmen on your channel, keep it coming and much love from Croatia!
Really enjoyed this one.Vytautas is one of my biggest idols, he´s great. I´m also 5´10 an told that I´m not big enough to be a good strongman. Vytautas proofed that it is possible. I´m really inspered by him.
This has to be my favourite interview so far. Really well spoken guy, and I loved his opinions about everything. Would definitely not be against him being brought on for another interview. Great stuff, Loz!
Lalas has always been a favourite of mine and this proves why. Articulate, informative, engaging, interesting/interested but most importantly funny!!!!!
Loz, if you keep talking to everyone, you're going to form a consensus on solving all of Strongman's problems! At some point, it would be a challenge - not to mention a great service - to put together a compilation of all the suggestions, recommendations, and answers you've all come up with as a group to make strongman competitions better around the world. 👍💡💡💡👍
Oh man Lalas! Definitely one of the most underrated strongmen of all time I reckon. Between this and Neil Pickup's armwrestling interviews of late, I'm pretty set for content! Thanks again Loz!
I knew I liked Vytautas but after his reaction to Loz' use of a chiropractor has cemented that feeling.😁 "It's considered a type of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), which means it's not a conventional medical treatment." "Chiropractic is not widely available on the NHS" and that is why it's complete BS. Before people jump on me I've tried them for back issues. What actually worked for me was strengthening the muscles and stretching everyday.
I've only properly gotten interested in strongman in the last 2 or 3 years, so it's really great to see interviews like this with guys I've not come across. Vytautas is a really interesting and funny guy. Well done Loz
I’ve got to say Loz!! I’ve been watching strongman for 15 years solidly and class myself as someone who knows a hell of a lot when it comes to stats/results/research and pretty much anything that’s on the web. Your series with all these hero strongmen is the best thing on TH-cam! You’ve managed to get these legends on for hours talking about stuff we’ve never heard about. Unbelievable! I can’t wait for Thor. One thing I would say is I love it when you ask the guys what there Max lifts would of been in their prime. Keep up the good work because you’re quickly becoming the most reputable TH-cam channel in strength and fitness. I say fitness because for you to grow you can’t just strictly stay in strongman. Whatever is a huge event that involves big strength we need and respect your opinion! 👌
What an interesting interview. Lalas was really engaging to listen to and you two conversing with such ease made it even better. I broke my back last year and I'm now just getting back into training, so it was really really interesting to hear about Spinal injuries and different rehab approaches. Thanks Loz
I used to see this guy training in total fitness gym 16 years ago in Ireland . Lifting crazy weights . Then every Sunday a group of them would do strong man in the car park .
What a phenomenal interview. Loz knows these guys so well, they are totally happy to be interviewed - relaxed. Loz puts them at ease as if sitting in his living room
Fantastic! I love Vytautas! He has always been one of my favourite strongman. We never hear enough from him so was great to wake up this morning to see a video with him. Thanks Loz great video as always 😀👍💪
Thanks for having Vytautas on, one of my favorite strongmen. I had the same experience as you Loz with the CBD. I did a lot of research and tried to get the best quality stuff I could, and all I can say it did for me is I slept a little better. Not worth the $$.
I only found your interviews recently, but I am absolutely loving them. Definitely gives us fans a much deeper insight into our favorite athletes. Thank you, Big Loz!
Got the feeling with this one that you were really on the same wavelength! Not familiar with Lalas before but he came across really well. Definitely going to search him out now!
Hi Loz, Absolutely loved the interview with Vytautas, he definitely seems like a cool bloke and he definitely was a top strongman when he was competing. Definitely enjoyed listening to him. Thank you for making the video. Cheers, Billy
half of WSM issues could be solved by just moving the events indoors. would make the sound and lighting way easier for the crew, would keep the events consistent and avoid any weather problems. and then the athletes wouldn't have to be sat in a flooding tent/shipping container for 9 hours. I wonder if the prestige of the title will shift more to arnolds or maybe even WUS in the coming years. probably not
one of the most interesting itw.... Vytautas, the most little powerful man, and what a kind mind. Great guy. Great point of view about WSM organisation...I always be shocked about time clocking. It 's so easy tu put a clock like in crossfit to see the time left....i don't understand some lack of professionalism about WSM sometimes. I understand his view for the chiroprator. But there are good ones ;-)
When I saw him in competition I thought that he looked like one of the most formidable men I've ever seen. He was like a block of muscle with legs and just the toughest face. Crazy strong
Finally got around to this one and I gotta say, I think I enjoyed this one the most, and that's saying something. They've all be great but the rapport you and Vytautas have is great. Really hoping you do a part 2 sometime!
This was a great interview again Loz. I must admit to coming to the sport recently i dont know loads aboit Lalas but am definitely going to check him out more. Loving this series recently.
Another great interview, thanks Loz! 👍🏻 Firstly, didn’t realise Lalas was based in Ireland - what a great accent Lithuanian-Irish! 👍🏻🙂 Yes - Definitely need to get some strongman live on tv - or at least a highlight show at the end of the same day - like they do with athletics and other all-day/multi-day events. Would be great to have some big competitions to look forward to throughout the year instead of cramming it all in December and nothing for another 11 months! 💪🏻🙂👍🏻
Z is great at the power stairs. He's obviously ridiculously strong, but having slightly shorter arms is an advantage here! As in most forms of pressing as well, where we know how great he is. Compare it to events such as the arm over arm, or even the deadlift. Someone with the proportions of Mark Felix can and will excel here.
Yeah Strongman was around Christmas time here in California on ESPN, I watched it on December 26th. Tv changed in so many ways since the 90’s early 2000’s. It’s hard to find the Strongman show on Cable TV now like ESPN
He is one big guy I've said it 100 times n will keep saying big loz legend n such a nice guy true sportsman would like to know wud you be competing in this deadlift record you would hit 6
Great interview. Loz I think you should change your into to a more happy one it would portray your character. But loving the channel I'll say one of the best in this field
Vttaulas the strongest small man of all time except Paul Anderson (for his time). I was shocked how powerful and most impressive shoulders when he took second to Big Z the greatest strongman. Incredibly comfortable with English Very smart Glad he owns a gym ( in Ireland very cool)
Vytautas deserves more recognition. Dude’s strong af.
Great personality too.
Anyone who wins the Arnold deserves recognition
I feel like Vytautas would actually be a great commentator, you two would make a good team.
If you're not six foot, Lalas is your inspiration.
Darren Sadler!
Jimmy marku
This is one of the best interviews I've seen. I loved watching Lalas compete
It was one of my favourites too. Lalas is so easy to talk to.
Yeah, bad luck with injuries and such can really suck.
@@BigLozOfficial In terms of the natural feel of the conversation this one was right at the top. I'd never be averse to you having any of your guests on for a second round, but I could listen to you and Lalas together all day.
Never knew Vytautas was so articulate and interesting! Loz this is great content mate!
This guy in his prime looked like a cartoon character. Don’t think there’s been many strongmen with shoulders wider than him
Irish-Lithuanian is an interesting accent
I love how he talks
Yeah he sounds like a local to me
25 euro uber drive from his ear to his shoulder Dayuumn Lalas!
Great to hear you chatting with other athletes as always BIGLOZ!
Lalas turns sideways to go through doorways
that might actually be true. Thor and Brian have to duck. Lalas has to turn.
Honestly best interview so far, hes such a sound and down to earth man, maybe its because I'm Irish but he was honest and was open about his struggles. Lalas 👍
You should think about doing motivational talks in schools I know in donegal we'd listen.
This was one of my favorite interviews so far! Vitautas’s English was way better than I thought it was going to be and he had some great stories and insight into the sport. Loving this series, Loz!
The tallest 5'10 man in wsm
Never knew Vytautas was so articulate and interesting! Loz this is great content mate!
Wow, your interviews are like a who's who of strongman, just shows you how respected you must be within the strongman community!
Vytautas Lalas was one of the most underrated strongman. Thanks for this amazing chat Big Loz
Glad you enjoyed it
Been saying that for years man.. he deserves all the recognition in the world.
I'd love to hear you talk to these guests about advice towards Kieliszkowski's deadlift, Novikov competing to much, how the hell is Shivlykov still walking let alone competing. lol I love that this is showcasing athletes we rarely hear from but I love to hear their opinions on the current crop as well.

Great stuff, Loz!
This was one of the best interviews I have ever seen, entertaining and informative, I was sad when it ended, I could listen to you two all day.
Thank you Bruce. It was great chatting with Lalas
It would be awesome if big loz could have Vytautas on regularly to talk about strongman.
Lalas has always been a favourite of mine and this proves why. Articulate, informative, engaging, interesting/interested but most importantly funny!!!!!
He’s a awesome guy. I always like catching up with Lalas
👍 Well thanks for sharing the joy with us Loz 😁
Vytautas deserve 1 WSM title
Dudes shoulders and arms are something of legend.
This dude has the most alpha shoulders in history
180 talk, 200cm wide! He lives in my country too, I will claim him as irish, as Lithuania has the GOAT already lol. Loz you are the king!!
He is smaller than 180 even
So happy to see one of the strongman that inspired me to start strongman especially be only 1 78m tall myself

Great channel loz
He’s awesome: thanks buddy

great chat ! I was hoping you would talk to Vytautas. Awesome !
Best interview so far! You should definitely think about doing a strongman podcast
Everytime I watch one of these interviews I find myself saying that this is the best one yet.
This might be my favorite interview. Vytautas was a beast, yet so down to earth. Legendary!
I used to see this guy training in total fitness gym 16 years ago in Ireland .
Lifting crazy weights .
Then every Sunday a group of them would do strong man in the car park .
Great seeing the channel grow. Lalas is a legend, as are you Loz 💪
Thanks buddy
@@BigLozOfficial cheers Loz, been a fan for years.
Watched all of your interviews and this was definitely the best! Hope to see Lalas back at comps later this year!
Never knew he was living in Ireland
Michael Reid u won’t miss him lmao
Thank you Loz. Been a rough week, and you and Vytautas are my biggest inspirations so I look forward to watching this!
Brilliant again!! Such intriguing guests. 👌🏻
Awesome interview. I didn't know much about Lalas before this, and I wouldn't have expected him to be so fluent in English.
What a phenomenal interview. Loz knows these guys so well, they are totally happy to be interviewed - relaxed.
Loz puts them at ease as if sitting in his living room
Fantastic! I love Vytautas! He has always been one of my favourite strongman. We never hear enough from him so was great to wake up this morning to see a video with him. Thanks Loz great video as always 😀👍💪

What a great personality, amazing interview!
Keep 'em coming Loz, bloody brilliant!
1 hour and 20 minutes just flew past. Thanks again
Love this interviev!!! Two great athletes honestly talking about everything in strongman sport! Love this!!!
Finally getting a chance to watch this! This should be awesome.
I only found your interviews recently, but I am absolutely loving them. Definitely gives us fans a much deeper insight into our favorite athletes. Thank you, Big Loz!
Particularly enjoyed this one. Your work is priceless, Loz!
Two toplads here respect💪🏻
What a great interview, keep them coming bigloz 👍🏼

Hi Loz,
Absolutely loved the interview with Vytautas, he definitely seems like a cool bloke and he definitely was a top strongman when he was competing. Definitely enjoyed listening to him.
Thank you for making the video.
Cheers,

Great Interview Loz!
Loz thank you for all the videos good job man and big love from Las Vegas 🙏🙏

I never knew Vytautas had a neck! He's trimmed down a bit. Still looking as wide as a barn door though 💪🏼🤩👍🏽
Great comparison to tennis grand slams, the top shows are all prestigious in their own way
Best one so far👌
Another great interview Big Loz 👍
Awesome vid Loz!
another great show Loz, these are the conversations fans want too hear
Love your videos! Gaining some vital insights. Big love from India. Hope the strongman scene grows here as well.
Love this! Great interview, had no clue he lived in Ireland

Good job on videos big loz love the videos your a true legend of this sport hope to see u compete n smash it
Always loved watching Lalas
Great interview👍😉
Love the arm wrestling chat, Cleeve Dean, competed in the first WSM iirc.
Great job Loz!! You've been doing some awesome interviews brother. I had no idea Cyplenkov was a strongman previously.
Another great interview, thanks Loz! 👍🏻

Lalas top bloke.Says it as it is.
Would love to see a video with devon larratt if possible
Vytautas has got to be one of the most massive height to size ratio strength athletes ever.
And yeah he's right, the king's move is utter bullshit!!
LOL the Twins story is great. What a fun movie to be inspired by
1st thing i love all the interviews. But this my favorite ive watch it 3 times smile the whole time. Got 2 get him back again
We will definitely have Lalas back on. It was great chatting to him
Respect from Ukraine
Awesome content. Brian got Mateusz on. You can get him. He's a great dude.
Likefor sure for an interwiev .Vytautas should try Larrat for armwrest.Lietuva gogogo
Such a nice guy!
He is one big guy I've said it 100 times n will keep saying big loz legend n such a nice guy true sportsman would like to know wud you be competing in this deadlift record you would hit 6
Maybe in my prime I could get 4/5 These guys are just getting better and better though.
@@BigLozOfficial I truly believe you cud even now you are one of my favourite strongmen of Al time
Great interview. Loz I think you should change your into to a more happy one it would portray your character. But loving the channel I'll say one of the best in this field

Very smart
Glad he owns a gym ( in Ireland very cool)
