What is Strong? (60 second)

[MeLlamoEddie]

I hope this encourages fat people.

[TheGrizz9fc]

For those who think being big means your strong, You have a mis-guided conception of what strength is. Yes you probably are strong, but what this video is hinting at is being mentally strong also. If you are "big" try and run about 8 miles and see if you fail miserably. If your skinny try and bench press 315 and see if you fail miserably. Strength has a variety of meanings.

Be careful when judging someone by their size, big muscles do not mean you are a badass.

[kimseddie2]

who else thought they heard their phone rang at around :50

[chicharitohernandez8]

"maybe strong is just what you have left...when you've used up all your weak" I LOVE THAT

[zajec11]

Pause at 0:58. You can also say you see a hot girl

[shmana]

that was such a cool nike commercial



[jprzywar]

Who are the athletes shown in this video?

[c3rv3l0]

13 people still dont know what strong is

[Xupypr1337]

awesome ! good job !

[supermcballin]

Lies... it says 60 seconds.. there is 62

[tubermann1]

what does some skinny guy running have to do with strength?

[fanthor]

@tubermann1 having a huge body =/= strong

[22640cal]

@tubermann1 A "skinny guy" may be able to finish a marathon where the body builder "strong" guy may be able to lift 500lbs. They are different forms of strong

[MrAllevian]

@tubermann1 Go run 10k in 40min and you know what strength has got to do with it.

But I bet you cough your goddamn heart out after running this pace for 5min.

But feel so damn STROOONG whilst lifting a piece of metal 5 times. HERO

[otherjr]

@MrAllevian Lifting that piece of metal five times may have years of patience, dedication and pain behind it. When you respond to someone like this, youre lowering yourself. It is not strong.

[MrAllevian]

@otherjr

In most cases..talking about dedicated bodybuilders it might be true what you say.

But hey- I once decided in my life to let idiots know that they are some. And this is how I like it. It jst ain´t fair to let them remain in ignorance about it.

But I respect your point of view, mate.

[khalevin]

@MrAllevian Different sports, different ways of training the muscles, different capabilities, different achievements. But same dedication, passion, and will.

[ChristianS1996]

@tubermann1 your obviously not a runner lol

[m0cahacker]

MIND

[Naraku1987]

Run forest run

[miscanime]

Maybe Strong, is just fancy marketing...when you've seen this stuff all week.

[lights779]

[robmaro74]

When you reach the top, keep climbing!

[PerroMalo90]

What is strong?....

[atter0]

Jesus wears sacuony,you should too!!

[ThaGenius101]

Jesus needs a haircut

[marcobikramyoga]

anal

[hairyvirgin]

I want to be like these models you've used in this advert

[TheLinkMedic]

We all know Anton Krupicka is the real running jesus.

[54Grip6]

Yesssssssssss!!!!!!!

[soulcheckw2]

Jesus wears Saucony? Brb, getting new running shoes.

[cas4mla121]

looks like johnny drama

[teina123]

i wish i was jesus running

[22640cal]

lol yea jesus can walk on water but definitely cant run, thou shalt not strike thy heels.

[Killroy1999]

Jesus is a heal striker.

[dropeff]

If it s not jesus its Chris kornell!

[jaamil30]

strong is my happiness

[Porsche997911Turbo]

yeah i am. . .haha i run everyday and use adidas. But its my opinion man so it doesn't really matter what i say ;)

[zanotam]

The Song... what is it?

[KvL92]

Riven is strong.

[TheMagnatar]

Did Jesus never hear of skin cancer

[TheIcekake]

0:49 hot chick ruuuunnnniiiinnnnggg !!! oh shit that's a guy

[Porsche997911Turbo]

Saucony sucks! ADIDAS RULES!

[ezrarzep]

@Porsche997911Turbo you dont know what youre talking about man, obviously youre not a runner right??

[weissgerbergasse]

This is a video about running for people who don't actually run very much. This is quite depressing actually.

[OlBluesMan90]

i love the participation of the computer committee criticizing "Jesus's" foot landing.. Maybe you'd like to make a video and show us along with some of your times.

[77freakofnature]

Yes heel strikeing Is bad it works your shins to much and you could get a stress fracture or shin splints

[blahblahblahxx333]

fucking philosophy

[bobby27105]

Saucony is a very cool company

[MrKuhner]

@overthehills92 tony krupicka

[major356]

this makes me wanna go climb a mountain now

[20Sarunas]

pre stache

[dan1600m]

its PRE 0:35

[TheQuietObserver01]

Jesus needs to stop heel striking 0:35 *sigh* I guess no one's perfect

[forleif]

@TheQuietObserver01 theres nothing wrong with heel strike

[TheQuietObserver01]

@forleif There's nothing wrong with landing on the heel, but slapping the front of the foot down like a champ (like jesus here) isn't ideal. If you watch the 'geometry of strong' video, that is the kind of running that jesus should have been running with. Especially wearing a shoe like the kinvara

[forleif]

@TheQuietObserver01 i agree. the transition should be gradual from the heel to the toe

[HHOButterSkate]

tarzan has a terrible heel strike

[PGERTY666]

fags who dislike cos its sitting at 100% are weak

[WoW2006ville]

0:15 chris pontius?:)

[thehousefox]

Anybody else want to go run on that road?

[czere112011]

Run Forest, run !

[MrMakan1]

@huyly Heal striking is when you land on your heels. If you ever watch Anton Krupicka run you'll notice he is landing on the balls of his feet, not heels. Its easy to hurt yourself if you do long distances with heel strike.

[thISxTHplacE]

@MrMakan1 Okay, so it is NOT easy to hurt yourself if you heel strike. Just because you heel strike doesn't make you prone to injury. Don't make stupid claims that don't even make sense.

[crazy9516]

@thISxTHplacE natural runners are actually less prone btw but the point is that any type of running can hurt you if you dont warm up

[thISxTHplacE]

@crazy9516 yeah, I know that, but that isn't what he said.

[TheOlympicGamer1]

where is the track that is at ten seconds at?

[dragonis12345]

I think I'll go for a 55 mile jog. Then maybe wrestle an alligator.

[johncliffordtaylor]

@dragonis12345 Yeah thats good but when your done beating the hell out of the gator don't forget you have to chop down a whole bunch of trees so can build a log cabin. So that way you got a place to sleep in between bear fights!

[lilhawk2892]

@johncliffordtaylor yeah... and?

[mightyPants]

strong is lightweight baby!

[hatchlingcopperhead]

If I had a dollar for every pixel in this video I would have, well idk I cant count that high

[hastientank]

jesus runs in saucony's?

[huyiy]

@hastientank apparently jesus heel strikes too

[hastientank]

@huyiy i'm not a runner what's heel striking

[ogeuno]

This was awesome

[BboyStance1211]

it's a commercial but it's so inspiring..

[Jdog221000]

I say the Kinvaras on that guy!

[vckilling]

Do you relize theres no 1:01

[Serviss09]

Maybe strong is just what you have left,

when you've used up all your weak - Saucony

[alex630710]

great commercial, very inspiring, sure beats those stupid Axe commercials

[nades06]

@overthehills92 you mean besides being the dude with the most legit flow ever?

[sonicscool113]

62 second

[zorbarian]

expected 'nike' at final

[eyesofatiger1]

Can someone tell me the name of the SONG?

[MrMakan1]

He is doing heel strike, definitely not Tony :)

[ruthbrajevich]

awesome commercial!

[buisonduy]

Such good writing.

[livingminimal]

Where is he running at the end? Anyone know?

[petruccigod356]

@livingminimal my guess would be somewhere in germany

[shermansav]

@livingminimal no it is not Tony, but we are supposed to think it is

[1bhughes]

@livingminimal he's running on Mt. Tamalapais in Marin County CA

[mulletman245]

dooper



[1ofacrowd]

dooper

[ciglry33]

Very inspiring, awesome commercial - love it and LOVE the hurdler.... nice touch and nice direction for Saucony. Great variety of athletes and beautiful photography. This might just get this old lady up and moving.

[cabrion1]

The first person to dislike this will never find their strong.

[hoperator]

Saucony should be doing better ads than this if they want to get noticed. So boring.

[MrRobeezy29]

@hoperator why dont you like it?

[calmenda]

Awesome commercial. The long haired runner is running on Seven Sisters on Mt Tamalpais in Marin County, Ca. BEAUTIFUL out there.

[Birdieruns]

@dorinff I get it...it is because I put on my sauconys EVERY morning for my early (4:45 am or earlier) runs that I have the "strong" to get through whatever the day has in store for me. "Bring it on" is my mantra!

[hockey10st]

deep

[overthehills92]

who is the long haired guy in the water and running on the road?



[Sportslovergirl101]

@overthehills92 that is my coaches brother

[rockyiscol2]

@overthehills92 hes Tony Krupicka hes ran 100miles in like 12 hours

[GuidoLTFY]

@overthehills92 jesus , duh.

[NikolaBevanda]

@overthehills92

that is Forrest Gump

[countmcdumas]

@overthehills92 just found the "what is strong 'long hair' guy" on Saucony's Facebook page. His name is Andrew Gray McDonnell. Looks like a runner and surfer from his Facebook pic. I think i saw him in a Stub Hub commercial too.

[RotaryPoweredDick]

@overthehills92 He's a man who exercises horrible form. With advertisments like this how do people know not to heel strike? Pathetic...

[RotaryPoweredDick]

[Goldbear402]

@overthehills92 Johnny Drama



[Orzresze2009]

Jesus

[ludagaz]

@overthehills92 they've seen Anton Krupicka and they thought it's cool for them to have a running Jesus too, not just New Balance.

[MrGuitaristMatt]

@overthehills92 Jesus

[ezrarzep]

@Weedpenner jesus lol

[19Ron95]

@overthehills92 Tarzan :)

[2strokebandit]

@overthehills92

that´s ur dad bro, didn`t you recognize him ? xD

[Micallef444]

@overthehills92 jesus.

[TheQuietObserver01]

@overthehills92 I mean he's great and all but he's not Anton Krupicka

[Juan58010]

@overthehills92 isnt he an ultra marathon runner.

[HarvardCurlingTeam]

I'm just glad Osama's dead.

[dorinff]

Each trial that is presented in the clips is feats that takes allot of our energy and strength to complete. In the process, it makes up week, but those who dig deep down within one self and with a pair of SACONY BY, their side are able to concern any obstacles that one is face with. Hence, you see in each clip everyone either gets to the top of a hill or is in the process of accomplishing this task

[dorinff]

I think we are all missing the point of the commercial. SACONY IS TRYING TO GET DEEP INTO OUR PHYSIOLOGICAL MIND and ask the question how do each of us define strong, and everyone has his or her own interpretation.

[Jaimelapoesie]

@dorinff

Saucony is trying to get deep into our minds so we visit their website and spend $100 on their shoes (only to find out that we're actually so out of shape that walking to the front door, opening it, and putting on our new $100 Saucony's leaves us winded).

[Birdieruns]

I find my STRONG every time I put on my Sauconys...wickedly STRONG!
