Derek Poundstone WSM 2010 Teaser

[TheCameltotem]

3 People gave up..

[Praeditus15]

when did gyms make the change from barbells to logs?

[some5672]

Does derek own a section of the gym and the weights? i see a sign that's above a bunch of weights saying "Do Not Touch!" I imagine it's derek's equipment? LOL

[360muddin1]

wonder if derek knew that somthing was wrong after the second rep on squat because he paused for a while before squating back down before he tore it.

[timvanderloop]

Amazing! Hurt his quads in some "light" squats... If you can call 545 lbs light....

[414trigga]

lol i found out who disliked it Pudzianowski

[eksaton]

That 1 dislike is probably Chuck Norris cause he's jealous!

[Xeosk]

how are you suppose to spot this guy

[Strange0ne]

@knelly19 why did doctors say derek would never lift again in 2006 as a matter of interest??

[jmrugby]

@saintsLollipop train your abs just like another muscle group. Hit them with good, dynamic lifts and give em adequate rest. Also, cardio is extrememly vital in short/long twitch muscle fiber growth in the abs. just keep a good balanced diet, balanced weight routine and you should be fine. If you need more ideas for ab exercises, just search the internet and try some out.

[Cruzharo]

Huge fan! Best to him!

[Cruzharo]

:(

[blunted12]

strong ass man but did horrid at the 2010 wsm hopefully he'll be back this year with vengeance

[PacoNinja007]

@blunted12

He fucked up his leg but still had the motivation to go on with it, that takes a lot cut the guy some slack lol

[studntdrivr]

Derek dumping in the cage, or How to Bend a Bar: 101

[SatansLollipop]

How would I get a core/stomach like poundstone? I weight train obviously,but any advice?

[anthonycordova88]

that right there is true human power ... amazing what man can do. much respect to derek. only if the world had half the determination he does.

[JamesGod08]

Derek has to be one of the toughest bastards alive. So strong and yet agile and athletic too,  scary stuff.

[makeminealarge1]

very impressive

[Davidjd2008]

4th place, good job man

[steriods4champions]

what doesnt kill you makes you stronger

[bigbillbob88]

I fucking love the timing and wording of the music against the video lol. "till my legs give out" was the lyric when his leg went out lol :P great video

[HvPman]

The best this is that he doesn't have all those huge vains on his arms and everything else like bodybuilders do. He looks normal.

[SatanusGlorious]

@HvPman Yeah. When you are so ripped that your veins are popping out, one might consider taking it alittle slower :p

[steriods4champions]

@HvPman what's wrong with viens?

[blueviper42]

@HvPman First of all, he's not a bodybuilder. Second of all, where the heck do you live that Derek Poundstone would like normal?

[killyou45]

yeah, "light" squats lol

[KGPowerLifter]

@killyou45 right...lights squats watta beast

not even my heavy squats.

[xr3n3g4d3x]

Light squats with 12+plates...damn

[benchmstr]

1 person is a 120lbs crossfit warrior...

[MrWookieman63]

Hes running out of bar.

[Giantsfan4888]

BEAST! and who is the 1 asshole who disliked this how can u not like it?

[razilla1]

@Giantsfan4888 probably someone who got a speeding ticket from poundstone

[czoraa21]

get well soon boss!!!!!!!

[Rhinoroids72]

What a BEAST!! great vid and music

[CameronBlaze123]

Ouch

[THEGATHERING20]

2:53 wft

[sexymermaid01]

AMAZING...........VIDEO

[sexymermaid01]

AMAZING...........

[benchmstr]

2 things...

1)poundstone is the biggest heaviest guy i have ever seen doing hanging leg raises..with that much control

2)in a time where mma, and crossfit jackasses do sledge hammer work solely with momentum....poundstone is the first youtube guy i have seen that uses it the right way..

[Dougman256]

Today I saw that WSM was on and he was kicing ass and takin names When the show took a break for his group last I saw he was tied for 1st so You know he's the man

[Dennis4155Ruygrok]

What the hell....you doubled a 410 log??????

[quato600]

fairplay derek u did ur best at wsm but best intention in the world ur not going to be 100 p cent if u sustain an injury that close to event best wishes ,

[DeGO6]

When is WSM 2010? Or did I miss it already??

[WargeMaster1]

Hows Derek doing?

[ste854]

possibly your best video yet.

[pureefficient]

monster!

[HyperColours]

I wish Derek all the best recovery possible. It seems like he is always getting hurt and I understand this happens when your dealing with mega weights and high intensity training. I just wish he could modify it to avoid breaking himself. We want to see you in the WSM comp and win! All the best from Scotland.

[xtherealtm]

God bless Derek

[smithf3]

"til my legs give out..." lol

[GermanicPrussian]

Good video, horrible music.

[omxpablo19]

its not that i like poundstone because he can lift big. I like him because he is one of the best at what he does. He is a strongman, and he does what he's good at and what he loves. It defines him.

[Phil0185]

His legs actually gave it from underneath him lol I wish him luck while he heals

[rjp9871]

how is dereks leg? i know it will heal but i knew someone that tore their bicep and the doc said he would lose like 13% of his strength in that arm permanently

[LikeaGangstaButWhite]

@rjp9871 13% eh? Kind of specific.....

[CPlusPlusFreak]

@rjp9871 That actually depends, sometimes when you tear something and it repairs it ends up stronger like with micro fractures and other times its the opposite

[rhenson829]

hope the leg heals up. derek is an awesome motivation

[XDude666999]

imagine getting a speeding ticket from derrick... you try to flee but hes holding on to your car...

[quato600]

future wsm brilliant athlete .

[Fir3fly798]

How much was that freaking squat!!!! That was insane.

[BRETZERR]

Do your thing bro....do your thing.

[Ffouryou1]

cute!

[MrsRandomMadeMeDoIt]

340 lbs and did a box jump of 44 inches. now thats amazing when u are THAT big!

[tomcornwall83]

That power rack really shook when Derek droped that bar.

[stephenrussell100]

Derek your sick!!!

[bloodwolf2685]

how is his leg by the way?



[506dennis]

a great athlete see him carry 1100 ponds unbelievable great m8 keep on going

greets from the netherlands

[nicholas5674]

the human hulk

[pastorholbert]

get well soon Derek.

[UrizenTheNegator]

I don't know how he managed to tear his quad. He used proper form, was obviously warmed up and he didn't even use his maximum weight, that look easy for him...

[SlammedBeretta]

@UrizenTheNegator It's very easy to tear muscles, There's been cases of football players tearing their biceps simply by trying to catch a pass!

[rmccay88]

@UrizenTheNegator

I agree man, that is one of the strangest injuries I have ever seen given what you said.

[zovaarth]

wats the name of that song

[wilsk003]

@zovaarth Eminem - Till I Collapse

[lawofzilla]

im gonna be honest between the song and Derek being bad ass I get so ampd that when I go train I attack the weights with such a fervor you woud think i was trying to take over a small country. Regardless Of Dereks Wsm placing he is the best and an inspiration. He will be ready and healthy next time.

[blopeer]

What is the title of this song?

[mtsfitness]

Just to clarify in my last reply, He did win ASM, idk why I put a "?" in there.

[mtsfitness]

For Derek to even make the wsm finals with such a injury is a feat of strength in itself... He would have been right in there fighting for the title if healthy. BTW, Derek left South Africa, flew to Vegas and competed in America's Stongest Man, right off of the plane and injured! Guess what? He won?  The best American Strength Athlete ever.

[saymen881]

I am sorry. :(

That was a great guy

[CIZOPASNIK]

Competing in WSM with such injury is great feat of strenght and great diplay of willpower. Pure inspiration for all strongman around the world.

[2rich4ubud]

Guys are saying Derek you got 9th in WSN 2010 is that true?

[choconog]

@2rich4ubud wsm 2010 has not happened yet

[2rich4ubud]

@choconog It happened on Sept 22 Savickas won

[xjusticex2013x]

4:03

Holy shit...I feel sorry for that barbell. LOL!!!

Get well soon, big guy!

[WksMy]

no nieźle,ale kurde wsm nie wygrał nigdy.pudzian mu przeszkadzał,a teraz inni.w tym roku chyba ze 150kg waży wielki

[noesis121]

Derek is like a living, breathing Terminator. "It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop"

[stangster44]

Derek is the only officer that doesn't need to wear a vest on patrol...... I wonder if Ronnie doesn't either.... hmm...

[syzygy271]

He didn't feature in the top three in the end, must have been the injury talking.

[Younowkoed]

Hope you get better soon Derek.

[Militantcheese]

man I really hope he is healed up before the comp, but a quad tear is bad he won't be and i doubt he will be at his best but good luck hope you win Derek.

[Feon2]

he will go to wsm, and he will win the wsm

[GermanicPrussian]

If i worked out at that gym...i would pay a membership just to watch Derek train. It would be like watching the worlds strongest man competition for free!

[brotsy]

thtas what i call man

[boostinggtirtime]

very cool

[WesleyInman]

[lawofzilla]

all i have to say is heal up and come back stronger and better.

[gr8fzy1]

How heavy was he going with those shoulder shrugs at 1:08 ?

Also, I'm praying for Derek as well.

[miosko22]

[TirumphantAce]

Mr. Poundstone is the hope of the Western World when it comes to strongman. Rest up, and become more powerful than they can possibly imagine.

[crazyboutnaruto12]

[robertinho123456]

Injury is the worst thing that can happen for someone who loves to train...I'm in the same boat right now...but I can wait to comeback!!! Strength man!

[tlast2O12dude]

OMG that injury at the end... Just when he is about to compete in WSM... WHY WHY!

WHHYYyyyyy!

[EweTubee]

he deadlifts that car like he's hauling along grocery bags, what  fukn massive bloke.

[blueparrot10]

great video....would love to see a video of derek-"ARM-TRAINING"/DEREK'S ARM-TRAINING ROUTINE? this would be great?

[tlast2O12dude]

@blueparrot10 thouse arms are from all the presses he does with 400+ lbs. He dosent get that by doing biceps with 70lbs... lol

[TheDirtyApostle707]

Derek is the most savage dude i've ever seen.

[wildmanphotos]

fuck derek dont kill yourself brother

[beeman4266]

What happened to derek in 2006 that doctors told him he'd never be able to lift again?

[strongmanzack]

@beeman4266 Low back injury.

[123456raiden]

@beeman4266 shit happens

[FaizanMohammad]

THAT IS A BAD BAD MOTHERFUCKER!!!

[gusteg83]

damn. Bring it back on. Keep fighting. I'm Swedish thouh I like you. May the leg heal and you can fight on safe leavel. Light weight baby! Though be kind to Johannes =) 

[DH5354]

hope he get better if you get rest you can heal anything

[BrianIrmiter]

ahhh the ending is so sad! I know he will pull through!!!!! I've been waiting to see him compete all year!

[sidlikecrazy]

i'd hate to be any criminal who gets caught while Derek's on duty..... :P

[Iceman1800]

as long as they let you wrap the quad, you should be ok. It will still hurt but the wrap should give enough support that you can make it thru the events.

[mat2th]

OH MAN!! fuck i hope you recover in time!

[ChriststrengthGym]

All the BEST my Friend!!!

[SkellaBoost]

Good luck Derek .. ill be routin for you during WSM.

[mat2th]

there is a infinite number of things a guy may be able to do and look badass by being able to do such thing but nothing beats having an arm bigger than another aldult's leg

[spagnot]

at least it wasn't a biceps tear

[ericfive05]

Great Video!  Best of luck to you in S.A.!

[xXJeReMiAhXx99]
