Amazing video, I liked the final part

[@mshvidogio]

Strongest Man has strongest coach Giorgi Asanidze😎

[@ReneMcLaren]

They do but a different stage of the pull. Dimas fully extends with his legs and negates much scooping at all. He flexes his lats and traps to bring the bar to the same height as his hip with his legs fully extended but torso still over the bar. At this point he violently pulls back and extends up cutting out a portion of the lift.

[@4ksandknives]

Incredible

[@pq1137]

Amazing lift despite the fact that he ran out of time

[@z3ven]

The end actually brought a tear to my eye.

[@mu0325]

3:50 you can tell that he is going through too much wrist pain... True champ

[@TYKKETYKKE]

I always wondered why their arms are un-even... that meaning, the lift looks asymmetric to me. The right side of the bar is always a bit lower than the left side of the bar... how come?

[@JacktheDaniels]

@testiclecrusher2 I guess it depends on what we define "larger" to be. If we define larger to be mass or volume, or both, then what he said is a painfully obvious truism. If we're strictly talking height then you have a point.

[@burner2231]

I love it how the commentators are way off on his technique! He performs the lift mostly with his legs. and they are saying that he uses his traps and back lol. If you look at a slo mo of his lift, you notice that he doesn't fully extend the back and uses his traps only to pull himself under the bar

[@isaacstetson5720]

who cares

[@xgamermudkip7154]

I feel like the olympic commentators know better than you. Especially considering that they're correct. The further hinged over you are, the more of a back lift it is.

[@65bucksmedia]

Arms could be uneven for a number of reasons. One arm MIGHT be jsut a tid bit longer than the other. Or maybe one arm is a placed a little bit closer to the inside. Or maybe because one arms stronger than the other. You tell me. Your guss is as good as mine.
