I see your point and your comment was genuinly funny, but I just wonder how much cardio you need to tow a fuckin' semi or an airplane for 30-40 meters. I understand it's different kind of cardiovascular effort and impact than running 2 miles, but I still think their cardio might be better than most people would think. Especially considering their size.
Other way around bud, Powerlifters aren’t known for their cardio. Strongmen obviously train cardio, because they have moving events where they’re running while carrying an assload of weight
Id love the eating part of building muscle if i could just snap my finger and some resturant dish appeared infront of me. Its alot of bland food when you bulk lol
It's not easy but that's the price you have to pay to feel the adrenaline rush of having 12 to 13 screaming fans watch you repeatedly flip a tractor tire.
It’s nice to see that other people share the same sentiment of ‘eating food is the training’. As a guy who’s been underweight for most of his life, seeing it’s a struggle for even the elite is kind of a motivator in a way.
If you want to gain some weight and struggle, I'd suggest drinking your calories. It goes down easier and helps supplement the meals. I was underweight (140lbs at 6') all through high school and college and started doing 1k calorie shakes in the morning and that alone got me to 160-165. That also helped the eating that got me up to 180.
Definitely listen to Steven. But also use the shakes as a chance to get ur micronutrients in like fruits & veggies. Might as well make it more healthy.

Even as a lover of food I don't even think I'd be able to get to half of what these guys get to even with a few joints to help 😂 boggles my mind how their stomachs handle that much
I love how everyone else can pretty much break down how many calories they’re getting each day and then you have Mateusz: “I never track calories, l like tofi.”
I'd like to emphasize that nothing that was spoken in this video was actually ADVICE. They literally just talked about what they do personally in order to achieve their goals. I'm fairly certain very few of these extraordinary specimen would actually advice other people to indulge in such extreme diets.

How have I never seen this before?! This is an awesome video of a variety of Strongman sharing tips of their diets. This just motivates me more and more to keep on eating and bulking the right way. March 2020 before quarantine, I was 150lbs. As of right now July 2021, I am almost 190lbs :) majority muscle. Still got visible abs, veins, vascularity, everything.
Awesome! I went from 133lbs (Dec 2021) to 154lbs (April 2022) at 3500 cal. I'm leveling off for now but will do another 3 month bulk after the summer. Have you been bulking this whole time?
Their body's basal metabolic rate must be like 3k cal easy. Around 160kg minimum. The energy requirements are absurd, which is why the surplus is much more than normal.
I've eaten 4000 calories a day for a few months (clean calories, not rubbish) and it's an absolute pain. You lose the will to live after a while because you feel like you're constantly eating, preparing food, going to the toilet, resting after big meals.
Great advice when you are young and just want to get bigger and stronger! I followed this approach for a while and made great bulking gains off of it.... ...but now I'm getting older and have to clean up a whole lot for my health... which SUCKS! I miss eating like a pig.
On the flip side, you can use this as an example when people who try to lose weight don't succeed. Often they start eating cleaner but they don't decrease the amount of food they eat and so they don't lose weight, similarly it's obviously possible to gain weight on a diet of oats, fruit, fish and lean meat
I remember at one point I tried doing a bodybuilding type diet, I hated it and had to eat every two-three hours for 5 meals and it was just unbearable after 4 days. I can’t imagine this
It sounds like it would be fun to eat these guys. I tried it for one day. It was fun about four meals in until about 4 o' clock. The last three meals were hell and I couldn't drink the final pint of milk with protein shake. I didn't sleep at all well that night and my digestive system took days to recover.
4:25 lol Eddie. one minute "its all clean stuff" and the next its pizzas and cheesecakes cos he can't get the calories otherwise. he contradicts himself all the time
