- Sometimes there are really big talents and truly gifted ones in this world.. than there are really huge talents - exceptions and extreme enthusiasts - hard working for years... than there are legends...big names...and than - there are true "Gods" walking among Men.. Very usually unrecognized and totally unknown.. Let me please introduce one such ANOMALY to you NOW - Mr. Andrey Smaev from Russia.
He doesnt have social media, instagram, facebook, training programs etc. and he doesnt wish any of that. As 13 years old kid he already bench pressed 140kg and he truly lives by training with full fire straight out of his soul! Blessed with beyond exceptional physical strength and beastmode mindset - he is yet one of the most humble and positive people that I know. He never planned to have video like this and he never did this for competition or "beating" others - he just lives that for himself and tries to keep growing and improving every single session - as hard to understand as it is - thats the plain truth. Let him motivate you like he motivated me myself... I am still shocked. Dont forget that no matter how strong you think you are there is always someone stronger out there.. May his fire ignites the best in you all. Eternal respect to you Andrey..

Shout out to the man who welded those bars in the park.
Saw the comment a few seconds in, didn't get this at first. But realized real quick when the bars showed up..lol
😂
Those were actually fused together during the Chernobyl disaster.
@virus killerism yes all comments must be necessary....
No shit.

First sentence:"somewhere in Russia"
Me: Ah yes that's why

My thoughts exactly. 😁
@Joseph Kobatake everyone's a critic.
@Joseph Kobatake 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Not only the Russia. Calisthenics movement is very popular in Eastern Europe. Because there is a lot of old training grounds left from former Soviet Union. Now im moved to United Kingdom, and there is no free way to do Calisthenics here. Sad.
We are very lucky to have this video... This man doesn't even have social media so there would be no other way for us to know him. Thanks Adam for sharing this.

Absolutely mind blowing. This guy can win so many competitions in strength sports, break a ton shit of records, etc. This is powerful warrior Slavic genetics + years of dedication. My respect to this guy and to you, Adam, for posting this awesome video.
@turk turklington Dude probably barely trains squats and deads and still outlifts 99% of people who lift. It's obvious that he's focus focus is pull-ups and he doesn't care about powerlifting.
And probably steroids too...let's be honest
@@OdinsKoch It's more likely that he trains more bench and pull up strenght. The guy does reps with +140 kg added on him with pull ups. You really think after all of this he puts much effort to squatting and deadlifting? Most elite calisthenic guys can barely squat 120 kg deadlift 150 kgs becouse they spent so much time doing other things
It's all slavic genetics,no need to train, rofl
Thomas Cogger So? A lot of us take steroids and will never be close to this strong. They aren’t magic bro, they just build on whatever genetics you already have.
I weight 92 kg and I excused myself saying "Im too heavy to do the human flag and all those calisthenic tricks " From now, no excuses.
Keep it tight!
Dale bro, yo tambien soy un peso pesado, y poco a poco salen los trucos.
you will forget after 2 days and have excuses again
Up to see christophe cario on UA-cam about
And care cuf scap and delts 💪suerte tio🙌🍉🙌
Yes but he takes steroids
He has the arms of Denis Cyplenkov.... This is amazing, the most inspiring part of it all is his humility! I mean someone being so strong and not showing off on social media, man this guy deserves a genuine applause! Great video!
For real bro! He could easily start an IG and UA-cam channel and reach a million subscribers fairly quickly. In the same way people tune into Bjornsson, Larry Wheels, Eddie Hall etc. people would definately watch this guy. He could sell merch and training programs and have a richer life for himself and leave Russia for Barcelona, LA, Dubai ANYWHERE ! But he stays humble and trains hard in his hometown... Humble beast
@@eder6727 Leave? lol
Not the forearms though
Arms of denis? He has stronger arms and hes not at his peak, hes only 21 dude
Simon B No, Denis has stronger arms. That cable machine had a double loop system so the 105 kg is actually closer to 52,5 kg, which would be easy weight for Denis in that exercise. However, this kid definitely crushes Denis when it comes to lat and upper back strength. I’ve never seen anything at this level before!
Priviet, respect from Poland🇵🇱 my friend, respect! You are unbelievable.
МашаАллах богатырь скромный пример многим скромный добрый воспитанный пусть всегда будет таким глаз радует молодец ✊ мощь

The best video I've seen in years! Now that everyone saw what is possible to be achieved thanks to that titan of a man named Andrey, I believe we will see a spike in the motivation of athletes and that will result in a great increase in the level of this sport overall. And all that is also thanks to Adam, because he motivated Andrey to push hard from a very young age. Thanks to both of you for this!
Man this guy is unique. 100kg chin for 11x times... No one on this world is capable of doing that. Crazy genetics

I don't know how about others, but this almost brought tear to my eye to see someone so young with such RAW dedication to his workout... Right after video I went straight to my pull-up bar and did a few reps, I will probably never get anywhere near this MAN but boy will I do my best to become at least the strongest version of myself! Thanks to you both guys Adam & Andrey for motivation over years. I am truly grateful.
how dare u believe u cant be like this guy .for him to become how he was .wasnt an overnight process ,it was all hardwork and one step at a time ,so go out there and train the hardest u can ,until u feel like a ragdoll ,keep traning.

I pretty much agree.
@@Polarcupcheck Devon seems to agree too.
@@JHMninja89 I just know from what I have seen from bodyweight athletes, which includes gymnasts, climbers, etc. They almost always do better than expected.
He started 🙃
3:16 he deadlifted 180kg and walked with it a bit before he did the pull ups
Lol
Like it’s nothing
That's a shocking amount of strength, it will take some time to sink in. It's hard to fake being able to do multiple one arm pull ups and front lever rows while having the physique of a powerlifter, so I can see the weights being legit.
Thank you for revealing this outstanding human to the world. I'm curious what other calisthenic movements he's capable of.
Imagine being the guy at 2:57 doing tricep extensions while there is a monster with 120kg strapped to his waist doing chin ups and shaking the entire apparatus.
Those Slavic genetics are something else
@@jakeragsdale According to the prominent Byzantine historian Procopius of Caesarea, every year starting from the early period of Emperor Justinian’s reign (527 AD), the Slavs raided and took many captives and turned the land into a “Scythian desert.” Greek writers depicted the Slavs as those “who cannot be forced into slavery or subjugated in their own country.” Hence, it might be hard to imagine how the word “Slav” originated from “slaves.”
Ure so fukin wrong its not even funny xD
Thats right
@@jakeragsdale bro u can do a 3 sec google search and see that ure wrong lol . why are u quoting bbc xD meettheslavs.com/origin-word-slav/ here's a link wich the 3d in google do with it whatever u want. i have to say ure talking shit about something u dont know shit about just bc u watched a documentary on bbc , slavs call german peoples nemtsi. have u heard a german call him self a nemets LOL now stfu
Well, you inform yourself on Big black cock and you are from non slavic origin, so it might not get to your brain, but ill just informatively state, that slav means glory in Russian and has similar meaning in Serbian + most likely the situation is not much different in other slavic languages. Also, there is no one Russian Genetics, they are mixed As foooook.
"Every man has a wild beast within him - and you gotta be a beast. That’s the only way THEY will respect you."
Thank You Very Much Adam For This Video. I"m really glad to know Andrey. A true unknown Supertrong Athlete. I also like very much his philosophy and humility.This kind of people have a lot to give spiritually. God Protect You And Bless You !
That first clip says everything. A one armed muscle up is easily the hardest Calisthenics move you can do. Ive never seen anyone do it so smooth. This guy is defenetly on a different level.
Revolutionary video, this man is changing our understanding of human strength. Thank you for the video.

I still think the world's strongest man works in construction in some place in the middle of nowhere and just doesn't like attention. Much like the guy with the highest IQ is a a car mechanic.
@@amando96 If you mean Michael Langan, the man with the highest I.Q., he was a bouncer on Long Island for many years (ironically with non-working vehicles in his driveway), but now is a horse rancher in Missouri along with his wife who scores extremely high on I.Q. tests herself.
Exceptional strength and for such a young man! One arm pull-up is a performance very few can do just for a single rep. And those who can do it are usually light weight guys. And this guy does several reps with more than 105kg bodyweight! Awesome!
Thank you for the clarification on left arm and right arm subtitles....
LOL!!
True motivation 😈
Wow... unbelievable... if you are half as strong with same bodyweight you are already pretty strong. Weighted chin ups and one arm pull ups should be some world records. I wish you Adam and Andrey best in life
In all honesty. This guy is arguably the strongest guy I've ever seen. To me this is far impressive than being a champion powerlifter or strongman. This guy has all round versatility. He can go to a calisthenics street tournament, and win that... A powerlifting tournament, and with a bit more training, win it with ease, the guy benches like 265kg at 120kg bodyweight which is disgustingly brilliant. He even has the genetics clearly to do bodybuilding if he wanted to. All this while coming from a poor background in a Russian village. Quite surreal to say the least. Bear in mind that this guy is on a lot lower doses of gear than the big fitness influencer names, and is 10x more impressive than them, and I believe is 22-23 years old... wtf. And to top it off, retaining his humility and kindness from the sounds of it. Absolute respect to this man, and thank you Adam for giving him his deserved attention.
you forgot he can't squat/deadlift for shit so his total will be low for his weight 🤡
When want to pull up bw +180kg training in the gym. My suggestion would be to use loading pin better than stacking barbell plate to the side and tie it. Next One : 1.Tom Haviland 2.Alexey Voevoda 3.Vaclav Kotrba
Where Andrei is from they don't have such equipment in the gyms. The gyms are basic.
@@____DK____ could make loading pin by welding from steel scraps. Same with my country the gym are basic.
He never pull up 180kg it was static only
@@engr.h.mbasirijaz1249 still static is pretty impressive for me especially with 180 kg for several second.

Thank you for the video we wouldn't know about such a good person without you
This guy might be a pure example of some serious physical genetic gifts (akin to Eddie Halls MSTN "Hercules" gene). Might have some myostatin inhibition and serious Central Nervous System power output, this is ridiculous.
Dude, Hall has no MSTN gene. He is a megalomaniac that says anything to get people's attention.
There are very few people with MSTN gene and all of them are exceptionally massive in terms of muscle mass from the very first day of their life. Hall did not look like a kid on roids, hence he has no MSTN gene.
All his gains are due to extensive use of steroids and spending shitload of time in the gym.
All of them have specials gens...fuckin roids
@@dctPL
Thank you, finally, I see someone who speaks solid fact
His so-called ''MSTN'' is simply HGH in large proportions
dctPL Nah he really has it. He doesn‘t have the full gene missing, but only one copy of the gene (instead of the usual two) which means his body just produces less myostatin compared to those gigantic cattle and dog breeds for example which have both missing.
Bravo to him. He is the strongest ever at chin ups, ans he's a beast at all other powerlifting and calisthenics movements. So bad we can't see him at dips... he s stong and humble, just as you Adam. Thanks bro!
Ps : do you know his level at dips? And does he train strenght endurance? Salute and respect for him and ALL underground beasts who train in the shadow
