Strength Check with Riekerd Bornman and Lachlan Adair

[@Imaginebeingfree1722]

Random comment, Ryan, but I want to Apologize for the negative and rude comments/attitude that i have had towards you in the past .Your videos that you have posted with your kids have softened my my old, troll heart. Wish you the best in your school boy match, buddy.

[@ryanbluebowen]

🙏 thank you brother

[@R.J22]

This is awesome and hearthwarming. Hats off🙏

[@HinterlandOutdoors]

I haven't left any negative comments, but I just would like to add that I like you 44% more now that you have a sweet mustache. ​@@ryanbluebowen

Teach him all your tricks Bowen, this is the one

[@AdamLighter1]

Get this guy to EvW or KOTT and make him a star. If he commits he will become super elite and it would be nice to see someone new already at this incredible level. It would be exciting

[@iamatlantis1]

I agree, as the GOAT Bowen deserves it.

We need to see Riekerd in more supermatches. Love his style Still very young and super strong Greatest potential ever

[@mallhi5557]

Jesus man, Reikard is the REAL DEAL. This guy needs to be at the world level to get that experience. Give him 5 years and he'll be slamming people no problem. The craziest part is that he is a LEGIT fan of the sport and he's extremely smart. He is truly absorbing information like its crazy amd improving so dramatically. I cant wait for the future with guys like riekard, auden, rino, bacho being big names very soon.

Cheers for upload Ryan. Having Riekard in the mix is exciting and you guys are great with him in helping him realise his potential.

[@lenclovek]

this gives perspective how many freaks are out there, this is just insane, Riekerd is natural, armwrestling for about one year, 20yo and already beating Lachlan and Ryan very comfortably, even tho this is just traning and both Ryan and Lachlan are not fresh, it's still nothing short of insane. It made me smile when I saw Ryan and Lachlan coaching Riekerd, he's in awesome hands

[@DantGryet]

You don’t know if he’s natural or not

[@lenclovek]

@@DantGryet I am going of what Ryan says. Ryan says: "Riekered is clean. I'd bet my life on it." You are right in a sense I don't know for sure if he's natural or not. But by this logic I don't even know if he's been training armwrestling for about a year and so on...

@@lenclovek I tend to take Ryan’s word with a grain of salt, he’s pretty disingenuous. Yeah Riekerd will do well.

Ryan could you analyse the strengths and weaknesses of Riekerd and Lachlan which allows for their back and forth in terms of when they go into their press/hook positions? I.e why is Lachlan able to pull through Riekerd in a deep supinated hook?

[@TheObserver83]

That mustache definitely gives your strength an 8% buff. Then 12% and 16% once maxed out at 3 stars. You should also get a nose ring, I hear they buff endurance too! Without the tattoo on lachlan's right arm he'd be down 10% strength.

[@bradreid6057]

Ryan, you need to learn to stop holding your breath. Locking up and shutting down oxygen flow is counterproductive and only hastens gassing out especially in long matches. Denis Cyplenkov would be a great example of someone who can exert max force without turning shades of red and purple. I know it's common, will take some practice.

[@henry.bowerslol]

Can somebody teach the kid to climb please!!! He got all the strength in the world though

[@denginterratt]

Lachlan v Riekerd got me pumped

[@TheClots]

Ryan vs Schoolboy is happening its time to make Lachlan vs Leonidas Riekerd needs a supermatch against someone really strong because this guy is insane

[@ApothecaryTerry]

I reckon if Schoolbus smashes Ryan (I'm slightly favouring Ryan, but *if* that happened) then Riekerd vs Schoolboy would be a great match. Otherwise, Riekerd might also be a good match for Leonidas. He was beating Lachlan early but he's not quite got the table IQ of Lachlan yet, hence the later losses (since I don't think stamina was an unequal factor) so in a supermatch with setup manipulation Lachlan probably still has that edge.

[@Hello-jh1rq]

Lol he needs a match with leonidas - or khaled or kirill or smth

[@JosephMetts]

Lachlan is way too prideful just to admit someone is stronger than him.

[@veritas2145]

Why didnt you guys start with Ryan and Lachlan alternating while Bornman stays on the table? More interesting match for everybody? Or is his endurance still developing?

[@TetragrammatonMan]

Dude need to start with a straight wrist, or slightly kicked back wrist, and work through them from there. His cup is obviously too strong for both of them. He should also start totally square and practice letting them hit from a refs grip type of position.
