Ricky Bruch Workout

[@SR71YF12]

This and other clips from the documentary about Ricky are easily among the most motivating training clips on KZbin. Ricky was hardcore long before hardcore became an overused cliché. Ricky was and will remain an inspiration to strength and power-oriented athletes and for many others as well, for his courage in blazing his own path in life and being true to himself. Rest in peace, big man.

[@HIMCULES]

He watches the olympics on tv and the tv is talking to him in first person. He was the MAN.

[@StateCollapse]

RICKY FOREVER! Sjukt bra idrottsman. En av mina idoler när det kommer till att lyfta tungt som fan!

[@tman8524]

The original "lightweight baby, lightweight". What a legend!

[@TotalControlVR]

He who makes a beast of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man.

[@thinker1123]

That was the most fantastic set of leg raises of all time. After my next gut busting set of anything, I intend to swat down any low hanging objects, throw a plate in my blind rage, and charge into the night.

[@sXelysium]

I watch this video every fucking day

[@camouflage81]

Still?

[@wouter_scholten]

And what about in 2018, 4 years later, still? :)

[@PeterNikolovski]

2020 I still watch it

[@Fizniperal]

3:25 That was the best ending ever done for a workout

[@irishstrongman]

Bjorn Ricky Bruch, you will be missed. You were an athletic monster!

[@drumtum]

This documentary is great. Fascinating person, in every way.

[@caelestis42]

This guy actually taught me shot put techniques when I was about 13 years old. I won the district (south east skåne in Sweden) championship needless to say ;)

[@wesseboyman]

One of the very best swedish sports documentary!-captures rickys total determination to set the record!LIKE HE SAYS IN THE BEGINNING:ITS GOLD I WANNA HAVE!!!

[@seatrident1848]

best parts is when all the empty pill cans flyes everywhere and the next thing you hear is a madman screaming under heavy ass weights!

[@ptarleton]

Several Great Discus Throwers do the "Cheat like hell curl." In this sort of Curl, there is only triple extension of the hips, knees, and ankles. That's how the movement ends - at full triple extension. In a Power Clean you must dive under the bar after triple extension - which is something you definatly don't do in a discus throw. Also, the arm position in a cheat curl is more akin to a discus throw than the arm position in a power clean.

[@mrporsy]

2.32. Haha, "Vä fän haur du tatt för nånting?"

[@phillytheflyerable]

B12

[@Fizniperal]

Was there more than ten years ago thanks to Tricks Tutorials TT forum. The internet will never again see such a place.

[@sweedishpie360]

i wish there were more vids on this guy

[@illdanilldan]

In the movie he eats like 500 pills a day, instead of taking shots of real steroids. But after when he wasnt picked for the olympics he started taking shots. But i think everyone took steroids in 1984

[@jd2053]

Greatest exit of all time!!

[@Prinse61]

Every athlete took the same pills at the time. Only few were as great as Ricky...

[@NisseEricsson]

This is the man that inspired The Incredible Hulk

[@TotalControlVR]

Well take it easy now, the quote was made famous by Hunter S Thompson. The song you're thinking of is based on his novel Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

[@WhindSoull]

Last 30 seconds is how I got kicked out of Planet Fitness. :(

[@modesthorse]

are there any more videos of this guy?

[@okokokccxx33]

LMAO at the yelling

[@Eurico_el_grande]

he was a fucking monster i think he deserved win the gold

[@Cha0sLord93]

3:25 and he was never seen again

[@seatrident1848]

and the ending... man im gonna Do that sometime when the gym i filled with newbies!:)

[@gunnarMyTube]

This is from an old swedish documentary / movie about Ricky,

[@d2tb]

that's usually how I end my workouts too

[@TungstenLion]

Has anyone been able to find the name of the song? Its my max out song

[@romazka]

What music,?

[@Huggson]

Någon som vet vilket gym han tränar på och var det ligger?

[@ohedd]

He shared the world record once. All valid.

[@Armathor333]

Awesome...

[@leane200618]

do you know his weigth lift performance ( record ) thanks !

[@ParrryHottter]

Is that a young Mentzer at 2:30?

[@dordo123]

rocky bruch

[@gunnarMyTube]

Han sköt in rätt mkt steroider så det var en brutal kamp som måste ha varit slitsamt. Men man får en insikt i vilken träningsdisciplin som behövs för att bli nummer ett på planen.

[@ohedd]

Ricky personally said he did them because he thought his biceps looked sweet in the release :) Appearently it has a dubble cause then!

[@TeamDiscus]

1:34 is the best part. When the vitamins fly all over the place.

[@TeamDiscus]

Thats the way its done!

[@joehelmer]

@JackTheGripper1985 Till Rickys försvar så var inte han den enda som dopade sig då...

[@dgwear69]

what was this from?

[@wesseboyman]

mega epic ricky!-great

[@d.parasol]

@TheKrypteia Probably the latter, although given the amount of vitamins and minerals he took either would be true.

[@H3XZOc]

most epic end ever

[@blixmax]

i gave whindsoull a thumbs up just because you cried about it ascend

[@dylanesc]

the man is a god.

[@Naturlagen]

Clear skies...

[@JacktheDaniels]

Love it. Intensity FTW. I get so sick of seeing pussies in the gym with their BS perfect-form breathe-in-breathe-out high reps with a weight that's waaaay too fucking light for them. If you want to get shit done, you've got to be roaring like a beast under the heaviest fucking weight you can possibly manage that day, like good ol' Ricky at 2:25. That's how it's fucking done.

[@kungkarlssson]

rip ricky

[@MrThemarkus73]

motivation nro.1

[@PumaTomten]

aldrig sett filmen "själen är större än världen" ?? ;O

[@zodawg0079]

I would love to see someone go to Bally's or LA Fitness, do some weighted leg raises while screaming, smash the lights, and then dart out of the gym screaming some more.

[@TeamDiscus]

@PerfectProspect So?

[@FreddoX1]

@nikeplektrum Klart det är, för Ricky iaf :)

[@leane200618]

Bench squat jerk behind the head clean ...

[@WhindSoull]

@AscendTheStaircase Oh no! Not a thumbs down!

[@H3XZOc]

0:04 = Spartan

[@shaneomac210]

LIGHT WEIGHT BAYBAAAY

[@munkenmedguran]

@FreddoX1 Allt det där var inte vitaminer;)

[@BillyMMA]

woot i saw my father in the background

[@FredPower_]

RIP :/

[@modesthorse]

So this guy was on steroids or what? Whats his story?

[@PumaTomten]

yeah think so to ^^ at the 80's they didnt know so much about the foof, like we do today

[@Armathor333]

You stole my clip on gvideo = )

[@PumaTomten]

its 66lbs = 30kg

[@screeem]

2:54.....flu shots?

[@newkeru87]

@AscendTheStaircase Dude, why are you so angry. That comment was pretty funny, especially if you've ever experienced Planet Fitness and their stupid "no judgement zone" where you get in trouble if you even grunt while lifting.

[@Robfoxman]

Swedish athlet, one of the best of his time. Lots lots of steroids.

[@FreddoX1]

@munkenmedguran Haha, så sant :P

[@ibarraray85]

He need jesus . Lol

[@JohnFPoirier]

We don't see the steroids...!!!???

[@pochtli]

ricky äger

[@saifani]

wtf

[@razaulkarim21]

Hey there, have you tried "Musclegends" (look on Google)? On their website you can watch a smart free video demonstrating the best way to start building notable muscle mass fast. It made it easier for Brandon to break through his muscle development plateau and then develop toned lean muscle mass with no fat fast. It may help you out also.

[@ohedd]

no thats a man

[@discusdoc]

I love this movie! It gets me psyched every time I see it.
