      part of this is probably because Martin's first visit helped bought a lot of attention to Thor's channel. And Romark was the one that showed Thor how to monetize his channel. I won't be surprised if Romark is helping Thor's channel behind the scene

      mtcuppers Thor behaved quite badly during Eddies WSM win, and I suspect that this cemented a negative opinion about Thor. I don’t think that fixed until Eddie stopped competing. I’ve heard Thor can be quite rude from another person as well: all that said, human beings don’t always get along and they do say don’t meet your heroes. I am prepared to say that Thor is probably a great guy and so is Eddie and Shaw. I feel I like Martins but maybe he’d become a Bad experience as well?

I don't think there's any video of Eddie doing a 1RM squat, but there's a few of him squatting for reps. He did 345 kg for 8 reps, which would estimate a 1RM at about 430 - slightly less than Thor. But that was without a belt, without knee wraps and with an 8 foot wobbly bar. I don't really care who's stronger, to be honest, I'm just saying: Eddie seems stronger in the static lifts. It's sad that he retired. But I hope Thor will beat all his record because record breaking feats are awesome no matter who ends up with the record.

Maybe some of them are because of some shit reasons and maybe they are a bit mean , but like u said :500 kg is 500 kg. A deadlift with a suit with a not mutch bending bar is a different lift than a more bending (wobbling!) bar deadlift. But now i share my thoughts: Eddies Bar bends to . its not stiff so may 2 inch bend + suit that helps may not mutch for the whole drive but for the first inches (around 20- 30 pounds ) . on elephantbar u have may 5 inch of bend but its wobbling and you have not that mutch tightness because of a raw lift ( besides straps).
      Normaly for me a more raw lift is more worth than a equipped one.

      @A.A.Ron Davis sleeping on back can be very difficult with breathing probems and neck position, tongue, also depending on how big you butt is and what is the natural shape of your lumbar spine, that region can be uncomfortable, knees can feel like are bending backwards, etc. one sleeping position is not suited for everyone

    • @stuffofmaking
      @stuffofmaking Před 4 lety +1

      @A.A.Ron Davis Studies have showed that sleeping on your back is a big factor in snoring. And others have showed that kids that snore more often perform worse in school (thought to be because of the interrupted sleep caused by the snoring). Of course if you don't snore sleeping on you back pose no issue, but it's not for everyone. It also seem in tribal cultures people much more commonly sleep on their sides on slightly harder surfaces using their arm to support their head and neck.

      Sleeping on your back is not the safest and smartest way to sleep. A general practitioner will usually advise people to sleep on either of their sides as opposed to face down or on your back. It promotes healthy breathing the very best.

I do appreciate how they keep trying to stoke that fire.
