Will there be a NEW Log Lift World Record?

Lucas Hatton should have been invited to log champs. Guy is a monster presser and clearly deserving of more invites.

I remember reading a comment on the Giants LIve instagram page that Bibbys mum was unwell or something, that's why he never made it last time.

[@LalasBrothers]

@@Anthraxian ok, thanks for letting us know.

[@yan3066]

Yep, it's the same reason Big Loz gave when speaking about Iron Bibby, his mother was sick. Bibby did the right think. Relatives worth more than a record.

[@larkinj27]

Agree - Log is a cornerstone event for strongman. I think Biby will probably get it and great to see what Ondrej can do. I think Luke Richardson could do really well at this contest, I hope he's doing well and gets through it fit to keep pushing on but definitely hard to look beyond Mitch for overall win.

[@yougotfelted8297]

[@harrisongmp3065]

Would love to see a SMOE reaction video. Because you guys talk sense and the truth.

[@matthewcincotta62]

I’ve got Ondre hitting 220kg. He did 210kg strict from the rack for a double I believe. Podium will be Mitch in 1st by a wide margin. Evan in 2nd, and a dog fight for 3rd between a bunch of guys (Max, Ondre, Tom, Luke)

[@goldilox811]

Giants Live loves to use Biby’s name (and other athletes that pull out) to sell tickets. They don’t care why they don’t make it as long as they sell those tickets.

[@hulkthedane7542]

Welcome back from vacation 👍. I have a thought about Novikov, that I have not seen/heard anyone else mention; I think, he is influenced by the war going on in his home country. Even though he is not in the Ukrainian army, I think, the instability that has been in the whole country for a few years now, plays an important role. I sincerely hope to see Novikov make a good come back. He may have peaked too young, but I hope, that is not the case.

[@paavoilves5416]

I think he did do some supply missions a while back. For some comp he didn't get to train more than a few times.

[@bobz4968]

Larry Wheels, year ago, at well under 300 lbs, log lifted and press 200 kg! He spent a short amount of time training with Hafthor at his gym in Iceland. How is this possible. Since seeing Larry do this, I am scratching my head when the big strong men fail with 220kg.

Im putting Pudzianowski higher than savickas - he won at WSM 2 or 3 times, with Z, while being 30kg lighter than him

[@1chadbook]

Andre will def come in second behind Biby on the log.

[@johnyoung5413]

I don’t know if this is a controversial opinion but Oleksii needs a decent amount of time off at the moment. He should have sat out this whole year and made a big comeback next year

[@LalasBrothers]

@@johnyoung5413 i agree, i think he needs to take a year or even two years off and just let his body to decompress. He is still relatively young, so even two years break can be really beneficial for him.

Only split jerk if all the contestants train and to the same, i think we could see big numbers, juhatergee

Some of the controversies of SMOE have wider implications for strongman as a whole that are worth discussing.

[@joemama226]

What do you mean?

[@noahlangston]

@@joemama226 take the squat controversy for example. I think it opens up a discussion about the practicalities of having squat at strongman events because they are notoriously hard to judge when compared to other events. Does that help?

Lol, novikov is far from over he just needs rest, dude said he did 150+ strongman competitions even before he won wsm just imagine that, he's body needs break maybe 6 months to a year but dude is far from done.

[@petershortland478]

I do feel Oleksii has peaked so early. by competing so much he has ended up destroying himself i know people need to defend Oleksii but he needs to take a break

[@richardjones3826]

None of Mitch,s squats were legal and he cleaned and jerked the axle, BigZ, Eddie, Thor and Bibi press not jerk, as to the heaviest that would be Vasili Alekseyev 1972, 231.5kg or 521lbs in Tallin. Juhaptergee

[@LalasBrothers]

Do you think that split jerk shouldn't be allowed in strongman sport?

[@MrMikeyj81]

Doesn't matter Mitch pressed and locked it out with ease....deal with it lol

[@AlgernonBrosplitz]

My take on the split jerk: to me it's equally impressive to have the stones to dip under a couple hundred kilos so I'm all for it. And I'm equally against deadlift suits because that makes the lift less impressive. Anyone who doesn't think Olympic style lifting is badass has never touched a barbell

[@77slate]

I don't understand the criticism of using split jerk, in SM. It's a very valid lifting form and isn't the point of SM to just get the weight from A&B. Over the years we have seen some very "creative" lifts it's part & parcel of the sport so to criticise the split jerk is a bizarre stance to me. Agree with 💯 there.

[@TonyStark-xc7je]

I think there's a 50/50 shot for Biby to break the record again. I'm betting on Mitch to win overall, but I think Fojtu is a threat for him on log.

[@jameschristy9966]

Fojtu will hit the lift before the wr butt butt mitch will win the show I don't know why they don't just give him the trophy now and save on people's body's we all know when Kaz was this dominant he didn't get invited to comps it's boring seeing the same guy win everything

[@richardjones3826]

Nah, thats not a press, it was a jerk with a press

[@bobz4968]

I wonder if Novikov is crushed by personal loss from the horrible war in Ukraine. Few countries have been so destroyed with so many dead. Horrible. He at least should take some extended time off as Martinis did.
