Very good decision to leave it. You have the world behind you in two weeks. Good luck mate.
Mate u done the right thing listen to your body I genuinely think u have the power to pull 470 which is insane! Live to fight another day
440 looked good, your doing the right thing stopping 470 would have gone no problem. 505 will be tough
It may be a blessing in disguise.
You're gonna be fresher come comp day.
We all know the 470 would have gone as easy as the 440.
You had 480 in you last year and you're stronger now.
The work has been done now go pull 505 for a speed rep.
440 was easy, 470 would not have been a struggle in the slightest. You did the right thing.
As long as your safe and healthy thats all that matters, 505kg will go up don't worry.
Lol
@@tommillawrd5119 what do you mean by 'lol', I'm just trying to give word's of encouragement, but I guess In 2023 it's 'cringe' right, so sorry that I wanted to show support to a fellow human being.
Right decision to leave it, save it for the big day, smashing it hicks
My dude, I’m really rooting for you. It would be cool if Rauno pulled it too, but I’m super excited for you. Got a good feeling!
Looking mighty champ!
Nothing to disappoint 440 moved like a joke this has been a great series I just hope when you pull 505 you’ll release the training programme 😊
Always good to see Pa. Best of luck Graham. Hope everything is well.👍
Solid call there Graham, keep it in the tank for Cardiff. Really looking forward to seeing you in action. 💪
Well done, the 440 looked very good, hopefully you will be able to be positive about that, you've obviously got more in you! Have a good sleep!
Really enjoying the videos mate. Was gutted for you to hear you felt a twinge.
🤞 You're be fit for the championships
100% right choice all the work you have put in no disappointment good luck in 2 weeks when you rip it off the floor 👌💪
@Graham Hicks no one is ever disappointed in your videos!
So honest, so humble, no BS. Love your content!
I think you are nailed on for 470kg in two weeks!
I am curious though what is your current PB, is it 463kg?
454kg mate
great video!
480 !! Is commming
Brutal ❤
505 is going to fly...good luck.Enjoy the videos.
Hi Graham. Followed you for the last 4 years and I knew Eddie would pull 500kg and watching all your training videos your on track for 505kg. Sometimes you just got to say FUCK IT and go for it . Best of luck Hicksy. Roll on Cardiff 👍
Get as much rest and recovery as you can. No matter what anyone says, you did the right thing. The lift will have enough effect on your body. Praying it's just a spasm or so.
Never seen 440kg go up that fast b4. Beast
Best decision was to call it there. No point of doing 470kg if you aren't feeling 100%, it's crazy weight for any body to handle. Rest up and do it easily in competition when it matters most.
Hicks looks in the best shape I've ever seen him...
For a man at such a massive bodyweight he's looking in great shape for sure.
Yup, good decision, I was thinking maybe do like a high rack pull to see what the weight feels like in your hand but otherwise just do what you're doing
Great decision
Better safe than sorry. You're good for it.
I think k the most Andy Bolton pulled before his first 1000lb deadlift was 400 or 410 so don't worry to much about it. You did the right thing in listening to your body, the fact is 440 moved incredibly smoothly, so 470 was deffinatly on the cards if no niggles. Just do what you need to do now to go into comp fresh and let it all out on the platform. 🤘
Good Luck for Cardiff.
Bit of TB500 to get that cleared up, before comp.
sensible decision. This was not the day to push things. Listen to your body, rest up and give it the big one in 2 weeks.
I didn't think anyone would pull 502 but Graham hicks will pull it he even looks like eddie when he pulls just a differnt face I hope he goes for it I hope no injuries 🙏 LETS FUCKING GO DO SOMETHING NOONE HAS DONE U R THE BEST DEADLIFTER IN THE WORLD can't let a master win the comp again
when you pulled the 440 you could see just a mild glitch right when the bar is just below your knees. Same tiny glitch on the pull before 440. Good choice to hold off on 470 it would have magnified whatever was going on during the previous two pulls. Not sure what happened but see if you can see it on the video.
I think after he lifts the 505, he should go for 235 log
Could still definitely set the powerlifting atwr total if he wanted to
I think to stop after 440 kg was a smart decision. Not risking injury and save energy for the big lift when it counts
jesus hixxy you look more like a unit then when you were on that strength wars video against that german a long time ago.
Killing yourself in training won't get you into Valhalla. Glory will be yours in competition!
You are so close to this competition you do not want to risk anything right now. When you get in front of that crowd and your adrenaline is going crazy that’s when you want to try that 505. I think you can do it. I really do. I just hope it does not kill you. Lol.
What was the convo about a bad squat session?
💪💪💪
The intro 😂
Seems like your socks were sliding a bit on the platform, something to consider, rooting for you !
Yeah they were the issue I think
@@TheHixxy1985 don't do a Thor 2019 with the socks
And thor 2017 wsm during 47xkg
Sometimes its just tissue stuck together freeing up, a veteran lifter like you will know the difference, so it could be a good thing, best of luck
I have alot of bruising but oddly nearly all function...... strange one
@@TheHixxy1985that's interesting, a tear can be small and bleed alot, best of luck
Can see your leg move and toes up on the pull. Was the floor slippery? Probably a the reason. Good call though.
Yes I blame the socks 100%
@@TheHixxy1985Thor had this problem & he went barefoot. Seemed to help him
I thought you would have been at the Shaw Classic 😢
The Irish man should be the world's strongest man as he carries the world's biggest chip on his shoulder .
Pulling that 470 realistically wouldn’t of made you any stronger it’s just a confidence thing, have that self belief and you’ll smash Cardiff
Hey Graham, which Barefoot shoes are you wearing?
GL to 505
Just bought some vibrams.
Lee Haney would take a week or 2 off and come back stronger. You got 500kg in 2 weeks Mr H!
Good call👍👍
Get some adrenaline down on the night you be fine
Game over for you boy. Browner is going to make a show of you 😂
Can't stand pa at all man
Why?
@@paodwyer__ annoying
@@paodwyer__i love you pa
@@jaygee9047I love you too
@@bennyking572I love you too even tho your a bit of a kunt
Is the censoring necessary? I don't think anyone on here cares if you say fuck sometimes. Just a thought of mine.
It's incase kids watch it mate. I wouldnt want mine watching it if there was cursing lol
@@TheHixxy1985 I see, makes sense.
Pa 😴😴😴😴
After all these years in strongman and JUST olny recently hitting 1000 for the first time, expecting 505 let alone 470 is laughable so soon.
Laugh all u like but goals n dreams are to be chased however long they take
@@TheHixxy1985 you bet
Shows that youre doing this the smart way. Ignoring these warning signs have been the downfall for many… Heal up before the comp
I think Graham and Rhauno has the biggest chance. Rhauno pulled a comfortabel 460.
Won’t pull more then 450 an he’ll be sick day of comp or beforehand
Whats your reasoning?
@@TheHixxy1985 look at ur track record!!! Proof is in the pudding
@@coalminingforlife5050 lol iv a very good track record actually. You just have a short memory.
@@TheHixxy1985 u would need too triple 450kg too hit 500!
@@coalminingforlife5050 I agree
