FFS Thor please understand there are die hard fans of you here. You gave me a panic attack with that title! Don't kill us bro.

[@dschutz2211]

Zero self awareness there😂

[@bruce_parker_87]

When your son tells you that you are strong, there is no better feeling. True win.

[@Nirsterkur]

Absolutely well said! Who said this was a not so good session.

[@MC-ep8cu]

Idk bro. You ever tried molly and acid and alcohol at the same time? Or banging two chick's at the same time? Look I love my kids but your statement seems a bit hyperbole

[@TwilightOperative]

That is the most valuable compliment.😮

[@Grox44]

Hahaha that was so cute. His sons are going to be so strong one day.

[@liamc7097]

That was honestly the worst kind of clickbait. Heart was in my mouth watching your deadlifts dreading something catastrophic. Glad it's only a Baker's Cyst and hope it's all cleared up for the Arnold. Stay healthy Thor! Pretty damn cool to see the World Record holder making sensible decisions if things aren't moving right

[@dangleeszak2323]

Thank you for posting this. I was worried too. Now I can watch the video without flipping out xD

Grow-up. U-tube is saturated with clickbait garbage. I also wish Hafpor success in his return to Strongman. But after 60+ years of weight training experience. Injuries are part of the risks.

[@DavidBChannel]

Honestly this title mixed with the fact that it's been longer than usual since he's posted a heavy deadlift on insta made me really worried.

[@chrismarcel7]

Glad to see that is only for precaution. We all have setbacks,, today after 9 hours of work I was tired and did not want to deadlift the desired weight BUT I hope it will be better next week. At 53 I have to be smarter than my 20s, 30s and 40s Ronni Coleman said that he was the strongest at 40 years so yo have time to play big time Hafthor. Take it easy brother. I love the way you make your videos so keep feeding us with them. Love and Light from Argentina. 💪⚡

[@NathanMcCrackan]

Good luck buddy 👍

[@unclemoneymoneyuncle8702]

Man, I feel you, recently back from a torn hamstring only to strain my intercoastal rib but before that it was the rotator cuff and lat giving me issues and minor strains here and there and it almost seems impossible to train injury free, I just want to be able to push and not be heldback by these setbacks no matter how big or minor.... so I def feel you on such and I hope you're able to figure out how to navigate through! I mean I know you will for sure no questions asked, but I def feel you on facing things when the body isn't always so cooperative as we'd like it to be!

You have nothing to prove. Be well Thor

good choice to not push it .knowing your body is critical- smart training Bro.I been at it consistently training since the age of 11. I am 58 and going strong .. I use my own bodyweight now as I squat , pushups. pull ups.. etc...

[@PowerLiftingNewsUSA]

Get better Thor best channel ever

[@spyhunter775577]

Brian tearing his hamstring on the Arnold Deadlift was the defining factor in his multi-year performance decline. I sincerely wish Thor would limit himself to a 450kg deadlift for the next 4-6 months even if he’s capable of more. Performing at 95% reduces his injury risky by several factors more. He’s literally the top guy to beat, just give it one more year before you become that guy.

[@dannyandrews6192]

[@Nirsterkur]

Another small aspect: 7:07 The Heavy music in the top set brings back all those nostalgic moments from the past, for example the 480, the 455 double, the 146 Cyr and many many more... Can't wait to see the next Deadlift session video with HARDCORE RAW TO THE BONE HEAVY MUSIC on the top set, which will ignite all our DNAs worldwide!

[@Zibo2k6]

I must say this Arnolds is going to be the most stacked for a long time. So many good athletes that are going up against each other. Does not matter who you are rooting for since this competition will be so much fun since its stacked as hell. Lets go i think anyone of the big can take it so show up and just try and crush it and the audience will get the best experience ever!

[@WalkingLegacy]

Kind of cool to see Runar again. I feel like he kind of disappeared there for a while. Keep at it, champ.

Have the same problem now with arm wrestling. I want to train hard, but have tendon pain right now. It's hard to just take a longer rest period to let it heal completely.

[@CarmaineCotham]

Please come to The Shaw Classic. It would be such an honor to meet you.

[@Nirsterkur]

Hafthor is concerned about his pec tear recovery. If that chest press is there Hafthor will not do the Shaw Classic to safeguard a complete recovery for the Rogue Invitational in October. If they replace it with something else, maybe a max squat, Then Hafthor will definitely consider, imo.

[@Nirsterkur]

I started incorporating behind the back barbell static holds for the past 5 weeks (one set to absolute mental failure during my Arm and grip day) after getting inspired by Hafthor doing it since early/mid 2019. There's good progress already and I'm gonna continue with it. One more thing I would love to see is Hafthor progressively upgrading his behind the back barbell static hold time with this weight. At the moment he is behind Stefan's 65 seconds and Bjorn's 61 seconds but not by that much, at 59 seconds.

[@retimixshotcrete5870]

[@RenegadeRanga]

Wesr very tight knee sleeves and it can help the bakers cyst pop. The swelling will go down to your ankle (fluid) and then go. It wont fix the underlying issue but will release some pressure.

Even if you don't recover as fast now I think you got another 10 years in you. I think you will get stronger than you ever were before and break multiple records. I hope you take a lot of vitamins especially vitamin B3 Nicotinic Acid. You should take NMN anti aging stuff.

[@zakksmithbls]

I wonder if hapthor uses the analysis of events per hour on the cpap machine to also track sleep quality. Watches and trwckers always give me a result that looks good. But then I check my events per hour on average and it shows that I'm still getting broken sleep

[@sethullrey3259]

Missed these.

[@VitoDRF]

I just turned 38. Ive been lifting heavy (for me anyway) since I was 20. Ive noticed as I get older I need more rest time between sets, my hips and back are always tighter so I need extra stretch time, and just about any time I go max effort on the squat or DL I end up with some minor muscle strain somewhere. But other than that I can still handle the same training volume. Its all about listening to tour body (even when it's humbling) and adjusting accordingly.

[@TheJBSFamily]

Yeah I never really max out anymore, I always base my max on calculations at this point. Just isn't worth the strains anymore lol
