got a100 pound dumbell for this but thats all i could manage lol. if u never have done this its extremely difficult because of the off balance.. but i figure for being 19 and weighing about 195 thats not bad for me
I'd hate to be that big. Not taking anything away from him because he's obviously hugely dedicated to something he wants to do, but I couldn't live with being that huge and maintaining it haha.
He's got like his own little training area just for strongman. the chick filming is pretty funny..."c'mon derek you did this last year with a torn pec"
what i love is how His girl Friend says "come on you did this with a torn peck last year" I know she is just motivating him and I appreciate the fact that she is so supportive, but you know he is thinking damn it you come do it then
Bloody hell. Kind of unnerving to know that some guy can lift roughly 1.3 r times my bodyweight over his head with one hand, multiple times. Good stuff.
Is the handle as thick as the Inch Dumbbell's handle? It looks like he's lifting something harder than the Thomas Inch Dumbbell. It's just hard to imagine that kind of strength. The best I can do with clean and press is clean a 100 lb dumbbell to my shoulder with my right hand, then once it's at my shoulder maybe tap it with the left to stablize it, then push press it overhead and hold for a few seconds. And do that two or three times. What Poundstone does makes my feat look like nothing.
This is how someone dislocates their shoulder: they watch this man toss these 200 pounders up and decide that they are going to do likewise at the gym tommorrow. What follosw is a trip to the Emergency Room.
I dont think people trully realize how big that dumbell is since a man the size of poundstone is lifting it. Put a average sized guy by that thing and u will see just how big it is.
Holy shit! You looked like Louis Cyr doing that kind of lift (legendary strongman of the 1800s for those that don't know, he lifted a dumbbell that way that other strongmen couldn't even budge).
That is the fucking dumbest comment ever. You are not funny at all you stupid fucking asshole. I hope someone drops one of these on your fucking tiny brain and kills you.
your just mad because your are a horrible person whos mother tried to abort you one to many times and failed because her had shook to much due to all of the addictions she has so basically insted of scrambling your ugly fetus self she cut open her belly and you along with a sespool spilled onto the floor. the only problem is that they forgot to flush you as well. MUAHAHAHA damn that was a horrible thing i said to you. are you ok?
Just watched Derek doing this at the 2009 WSM Qualifying in Malta , Hes definatly got the strongest shoulders in the world for the last 2-3 years. I think theirs only IBBF Pro Markus Ruhl that could maybe do the same. Derek to win WSM 2010!
@irishenforcer lol, both. Actually the lifting it to his chest he makes look easy. The OHP is a lot of technique...not saying it's not hard, but yeah.
lol his gf says, " you done playing". heh man idc if he didn't win wsm this year. he still the americas strongest man. out of over 300 million people, hes the strongest.
I can do 2 reps with 100lbs and I'm 16... I'm comin' for ya Derek!
