The Rise of Russel Orhii: The King of Powerlifting

- Born in San Antonio Texas to Nigerian born immigrants, Russel Orhii had hard work and dedication in his blood. His father is the former director of Nigeria's food and drug administration and his mother not only worked in nursing, but passed her bar exam.
So he inherited the work ethic he got from his parents and brought it to the football field. While he didn't dislike football, he realized something interesting. He preferred lifting in the weight room more than actually playing.
So When he got to the University of Houston, he gave up on his football dreams to pursue an avenue that he felt he was better suited for...Powerlifting.
From day 1, he set out to become the best powerlifter in the 83kg class and by year 8 he not only accomplished that, but influenced an entire generation in a way even he couldn't have ever imagined. With 5 national and two world titles, He's more than earned the nickname...the king of the 83's.
This is the story of Russel Orhii.

I didn’t know much about Russ. This video gave me a complete introduction to who he is and what he’s accomplished. Respect to Mr. Orhii! He’s African it’s in his blood to be strong as hell. 😂 shame on Greg. Great video 💪🏾
my goat
Russel 'I am natty' Orhii
Did you squat this week? 🤔
“The Final Deadlift” absolutely HAS TO BE a documentary title , I’m claiming ownership here first so if ya take it , RUN ME MY MONEYYY 😂 but fr, raw doc title
That title is pretty fire
Quite the pose off!
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
gonna have to do Jesse Norris next
Quality video man! Only critique would be that the entire powerlifting world uses KG, I’d recommend putting that in in the future bro
Definitely will! Thanks for the feedback
Full documentary dropping 🙏 W friday
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
The trap lore Ross of fitness
Not gonna lie, you ate Russ on that pose off 😂😂
Wait a minute I got a question if anyone can answer it he competed at the Aggie showdown but didn’t he dropped out of college
I'm curious, was Russ a full-time content creator from day 1, or did he ever have to balance PL with something like a full time job?
To the best of my knowledge he was a part-time content creator and full-time student, before he transitioned to content and powerlifting full-time
I love this documentary!
I am an editor looking to work for channels like this. I would love to join your team
Shoot me an e-mail!
@@LargeKoffi where do I find your email? I can’t see it on the app.
It’s ivorymediainc@gmail.com
Give Russ his flowers. But yall are about 3-4 years late on this 😂
Austin perkins is the new king.
Him claiming natty is absurd
not really he gets randomly tested year round and he lifts in a tested org. but idk
0:06 he must not been around a lot of people and two this guy is on gear. I don't f with him cuz he said he was natural. Lying hard on it too sadly
Mofo weighs less than me and lifts way more....... time to get to work
Russel you're so naive thinking this can be called documentary. Marketing...crap, yes, that's all ;)
The fakest natty in the industry.
Cope.
Get stronger 💀
What the hell is powerlifting . Not even a real sport
30 different divisions with 30 goats
BORING
Why aren't you the goat then?
