I love this. I'm a Natural Movement coach and my neighbor is a Strongman. We're alway blown away at the number of principles that overlap with our strength methods 🙏🙏🙏

[@james4119]

just got into the stones a month ago at a local gym. Is something different & really gets ure strength recruitment up ! ive noticed going back to freeweight movements after this - really helps - enjoy :)

[@crzypandaman]

Curious if there are blueprints or a website where I can purchase that platform set up? I love how it's interchangeable!

[@bakubaka4482]

@Roman Archie no one cares.

Have been on bags for a couple of years and keep sneaking to stone videos when they aren't looking. Pretty sure am about to start cheating on the bags and bring a stone home. Good stuff, like the short and to the point vids.

[@RedEmpire36]

[@kennyxsd]

Awesome. I want to be able to lift that one day. How much do the stones weigh?

[@carsondougherty9050]

Too much for you

[@Henskivilla]

I hope someday I can do this.

[@kendalllladnek9779]

My first instinctis to make the ogre's version of marbleworks to lift the stone into and roll it along so it drops safely, maybe through tires as hoops or something, and rolls back down, like the pool balls under a pool table where the holes are connected.

[@aaronwrecks3324]

How much do the stones weigh? From light to heavy thanks man, great video.

[@joelcarper4082]

23 lbs. -586 lbs. If I'm not mistaken

[@Obsidian1392]

[@AndreyBassNotes]

The size of his arms are insane.

[@michaelshaleen6565]

Greetings to all NMS travelers. May the plethora of gameplay bugs not lose your progress

[@shivajiborude416]

Best

[@jeffreyschmidt3997]

So lift with your back. Got it

[@CrniWuk]

My pet stone run away :/.

[@dillonpendleton]

What kind of lifters is he wearing? Old school adidas?

[@rohanghube9529]

On mahashivratri we lift 100 kg stone 😅

[@macromeal8790]

instructions not clear…crushed my foot.

[@kirstenjacobsdottir8472]

When you lift the stone off of the ground, shouldn't you have your back arched to help engage your back muscles and Gluteus maximus more like in a deadlift?

[@bryonmaxwell9882]

Kirsten Jacobsdottir not so much because your bringing it to your quads to reset arm position before powering up

[@thammar1990]

You have to lift stones with a rounded back

[@lucashallo4760]

i shat a hole in my pants pls help

[@toast1012]

reminds me of the motorcycle guys from south park or people who think electric cars aren't cool because they don't make obnoxious noises when they totally destroy dinosaur powered cars. dont get me wrong, respect to you but LOL the dropping of the stone to turn heads in the gym is the funnest part to theses guys and they know it but wouldnt admit it :P

[@jesse9497]

If you lowered it to the ground then you would more than likely injure yourself, can you imagine trying to lower it and crushing a finger?

[@thammar1990]

Dumbest comment I've ever seen on youtube

[@jeffreyschmidt3997]

I can imagine turning my foot into a hash patty by accidentally dropping the stone from full height onto it, but I get your points

[@jaygmailz]

How much does that stone weigh?

[@chiefbeef9657]

the 16" one weighs about 175 lbs
