Don't look for random VHS cassettes at your parent's house. No good can come of that.

[@makunochiippo5719]

It can definitely be traumatizing 😂

[@THEANPHROPY]

If only someone told you that before you looked hey bub :::))

[@HkFinn83]

Girl I dated at college told me a story along those lines that I’ll never forget. It was worse than you can imagine. Snuff film.

[@stephenr80]

Porn def guys

[@Waffen-pq9tn]

@@HkFinn83tell the story lmaooo

[@AnthonyGarcia-sy3yk]

That dude is 6'7 282 pounds, and moves like that is f... nuts 😅..

[@joshuawalker301]

6'7, 282lb, decently lean and on Olympic grade steroids. That's a peak performance human right there.

[@AnthonyGarcia-sy3yk]

@joshuawalker301 most likely steroids, but if you don't get caught, it doesn't count ,,, for a streght athlete he is crazy lean ,, under 10% body for athetes is actually a burden your hormones nosedive the leaner you get ,, the only ones care about that are bodybuilders because that is literally they sport..

[@THEANPHROPY]

Bruh all this work translates directly into MMA & striking arts specifically. I remember spending many lessons jumping side-to-side like a monkey & then practising this in my own time along with similar plyometric movements working different angles & planes. This translated in to major improvements in enhancing my already fast reflexes for closing the distance & following through & barging into takedowns & submissions. Awesome stuff you are showcasing here Brother thank you!

[@ThePhillot]

Still a true legend 💪🏻 I had the pleasure of having him as a lecturer during my studies, and he is also very down-to-earth 👍🏽🇨🇭

[@hw_throws8542]

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Cesaro is awesome, but Gunthor is the *true* Swiss Superman

[@ulhasanzk2249]

some of these machines are absolute gold. these days most gyms are body build focused and cardio.

[@christianstreit950]

This is real legit old school stuff, thank you for loading this up! Do you have more old Video Cassettes about boxing-/ combat sports - specific strength training? I really think KZbin would be in awe...

[@ghost187x]

I would love a deep dive on Jay Schroeder and Adam Archuletta training

[@cooperhenthorn6445]

Please do the jay Schroder training reaction video, I am so curious about why long duration isometrics and the other weird exercises in jay's arsenal made achuleta such a freak at the combine. That nervous system training is so interesting, and to have you explain it would be awesome!

[@jarodwilliams9469]

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. This is the greatest footage I have ever seen in my life. This video has impacted me more than any other video on KZbin. GREAT content and commentary. I have so many ideas for my Powerlifting now.

[@johnnylaguna1152]

[@makeit-se2eq]

well yh different time altogether, men been corn semi feminised depending where world are since 50-70s average testosterone level men as plummeted, less exposure in womb means men literally are biologically born semi feminised and more like chicks, more feminine emotional palettes, more prone to depression that cant deal with, lower sexual libidos and sex drives, smaller cocks, easier to herd too (states experimenting with hormonal disruptors both with prisoners and soldiers in various countries) theres lotta hormonal disruptors the animal livestock eat isnt living or eating what should so livestock tends be inbred to sh*t since industrialisation of farming, ontop chemical fertilisers overused in soils pesticides so hormonal disruptors there along with less nurtrient dense fruit and vegetables than past (didnt use to eat like a cow or rabbit too get enough vitamins in....) so poor quality lifeforms consumed everywhere. trans non binary gay dudes etc have gone up partially cause of this too cause gender sexuality if not noticed is impacted by hormones, why the last son is more likely to be gay than the first something to do with less hormonal exposure in womb. plastics in environment messing hormones up. put simply culture changed cause our biology changed most big cultural shifts are seeded by an earlier biological shift either in the elites the population as a whole or whoever making the arts or is most sexually successful to influence gene expression through arts in populous. but yh dudes were genuinely built different back then, your grandfather highly likely was pound for pound stronger than you had stronger grip strength, higher libido sex drive etc.

[@jorndoff2002]

Why would you think that? Does he also train for fighting or have any fighting skills?

[@rampagesmackssons508]

Why would you think that?

[@joh_kun5530]

Probably won't since he'd be an absolute beginner but uuhhh...don't teach elite throwers anything about martial arts...you'll be charged with indirect manslaughtered

[@didierbouillot3614]

Je comprends maintenant pourquoi j'aime autant votre travail : j'ai eu cette vidéo sous les yeux en 98, ça a été une référence! Thanks a lot to share this 🤗

[@DanMasterBlaster]

These exercise drills are awesome, and so transferable to many Powersports, such as Boxing, MMA, Rugby, NFL etc.. I stumbled across this video by she coincidence, as I have been reviewing many training exercises for Olympic athletes that do shotput, hammer, javelin and discuss. These are some of the strongest most powerful people on the planet and they have some of the most comprehensive exercises that are now being reviewed by many other power sport athletes. No one can go wrong by adding some of these power sport athletes exercise drills into their own training program.

[@makunochiippo5719]

I think it’s kinda telegraphing the punches in MMA or boxing but for the other sports I agree

[@dfhdff]

@@makunochiippo5719 agreed should be training more mma or boxing to get better

[@wheelman8637]

Shot put AND a Mitch Hedberg shirt, I can't give you enough things up 👍

[@artkazyak3242]

Werner Gunthor was a true BADASS SHOT PUTTER amazing man

[@drhjhulsebos]

So you're saying growing a mullet is next?

[@ruhaanparandekar9528]

U should for sure do more of these reviews w different athletes.

[@KramF10]

With his strength, size, power and commitment to training, he could have probably excelled in any sport he wanted to (Strongman, weightlifting, Javelin, Rugby/Football etc)

[@youokaybuddyfitness]

This training is so ahead of its time. Hes fully lengthening his muscles which results in better hypertrophy. These old machines somehow give better range than most crap in modern gyms

[@ThomasEichholzer-bl6ws]

Can‘t beliefe I live like 15min next to this living legend. Amazing footage, thanks for the upload.

[@ByronTexas]

Awesome shirt!

[@tomaszsosnowski9279]

The leg extension (as described in german text in the video) was pre-fatigue and post-fatigue work

[@huskysixdirty]

You are very good calling the languages used in Switzerland. To be precise it is mainly a southern German dialect only official there, then French and a minority speaks an ancient Italian version which is almost extinct and completely different to that spoken in Italy. So I guess it was easy to translate the French video but more difficult to get the Suisse German translated. I am not from Switzerland but share their German dialect.

[@wya4860]

Do it!!!!

[@berzerkfury1459]

This is an awesome find i love those unconventional ways of training they seperate 1st from 2nd i believe.

[@THEANPHROPY]

A super good historical account of exercise science. Interestingly the key concepts of what is demonstrated here can also be found on Temple & Monastery walls all over the World such as: India; Thailand & China. The 72 gongs of Shaolin (a skill attained through diligent disciplined habitual practice) incorporates every aspect of what is demonstrated here yet for a very specific end goal & the fact that dynamic trunk control is required for a specific gong or static hold before an explosive movement is only a biproduct of the journey to the end goal. Absolutely fascinating! Thank you for this. I wonder when you will have your athletes wrestling on top of stakes & bear hugging solid trees in an attempt to up route them :::)) Thank you. Peace & Love!

[@FloorballMadeSimple]

Floorball and hockey-players could benefit from these! Those rotational movements must have impact on shot power, 1v1-situations etc

[@Brotherfaris]

This dude is an absolute beast 😳

[@GypsyMay06]

Please review the Jay Schroeder stuff

[@xanderxavage]

Diggin the Mitch Hedberg shirt 🤙💪😅

What do you think about the using of amoniak salt?

[@davecubsrule]

Love your content been on the app almost a year now and respect the information you give out I've had so much improvement and so has my son who's a wrestler. So I would like to give you some small input please it's not to offend but bruh please that stach don't work for you. If anything a full on beard but the stach only worked for Tom Selleck

[@soyanchd5439]

Anyone knows the model of the avia shoes at 10:28 please?

Surprised that an American knows what cricket is! Great video.

[@hw_throws8542]

Fun fact - the first ever international cricket match was between the US and Canada

[@AnthonyGarcia-sy3yk]

Oh, we know, we just chose to ignore that one 😂.

[@driealpo9104]

those guys did stroids dat time , i will be curious to know

[@thomassteadman6180]

Do a Ricky Bruch video

[@agnidas5816]

5:13 - this was a thing that people practised back in Arnold's days already. The effect were obvious - the mechanisms were mysterious . And they probably got the idea from strongmen of the 19th century... It's amazing how time proven techniques stop being used unless some nerd pays for a lab writing session. You also make no distinction between active isometric holds (shown on video) and stretchy stretches(in the science paper) ... totally different things.

[@user-bt6py7zl4c]

How are Gunther joints these days? More specifically, the knees.

[@EnglandLives]

I also would like to know this

[@agnidas5816]

14:20 you say after he just did partial holds. Are you saying you don't do any of the things he did differently than a static strength athlete ? ... what's - your program for then ?

[@totallyraw1313]

How strong and athletic is Gunthor today?

[@HIMCULES]

I saw an interview of his on youtube a few years ago, where he casually bench pressed the journalist at the end, with balance and control, making it look so easy and safe. I think he is good.

[@adaptiveblur2770]

170kg hang clean ???

[@YourLiftingPartner]

Mitchell Cooper, The World´s Strongest Man, in between workouts, he loses weight to work as a presenter on this channel and talks about the years of his youth, when he still had hair.

[@jasonbelt57]

You think more explosive than Ulf Timmerman?

[@Leonidas-eu9bb]

You need to accepted that training with heavy weights is counterproductive for developing athletic power. We want to develop speed/power athletes an not strongman. Especially speed is a unique and it's very sensible.

[@reygutierrez9412]

wtf what happened to garage strength? There’s like no views in this channel but it’s the same shit lol what’s happening
