      @@cameronearls6497 holy shit. This may be the most brainless thing I've ever read. Haha.
      Muscle memory is actually the problem. You rebuild muscle that you once had fast, but your tendons and ligaments grow much slower, and those are the weak points and get injured. As it happened with his pec injury, which occured when he re-gained strength too fast are an extended break from strength sports from it via his boxing career.
      I suspect even if you knew though, you would still be cheering him on. That's how you fair weather friend types operate. When everything is well, you're here to cheer and share the limelight. When things turn sour, it wasn't your fault, and you disappear as quick as a roach under a rock. True garbage human beings.

    Thor it genuinely seems like you have the ability to come back stronger than ever before. That you could beat your deadlift WR, the all time record, and win many titles in strongman again. Seriously I think you have what it takes to be the best ever. You've responded well to your injury and it's all very impressive. I'd love to see you smash all the records big boy. I'm 145kg but I'll never be as big as you, I'm only 1/3 as strong as you, probably more like 1/4

    I know this isn’t the popular opinion, but I feel like Thor should treat this first competition like his “opener” at a powerlifting meet. Keep everything at 95%. If he aims for 5th place overall instead of podium, it will be so much safer and still make a huge statement. He’s such a freak, it’s all about risk management. If he just stays injury free for an extra year, he’s 1st or 2nd in every competition again.

It is interesting to see how some of the form has gone, at least on the first couple of reps, but then by the final set, it looks fluid again. It will be interesting to see how it all comes back, since you were the master of good form before. Also I have had a bunch of surgeries this year and feel like I am starting over with strength, so it will be interesting to see how you come back, and build up.
