Is 1100+ doable this Saturday? I'm competing April 15th and my best ever total was 1100kg but I aim to break that this Saturday. Tune in live on youtube and Twitch!!
I'm sure it is.
You got this!!
430 squat, 230 bench, 410 dead lift. I'd say 1070 kg
Dude is doing my max like it is pure air lol 😁
@@IvanRandomDude he already benched 240kg a couple weeks back for a one rep max…

Thank you Buddy!
My favourites are 3:53, 5:41, 7:05 and 11:47 💪🏻
You know the 'yaow' is just the Icelandic word for yes, right? It's 'já'.
@@EVO6- l'm just writing what I hear in the video.
Thanks anyway 👍
Bro please don't stop what you are doing, we appreciate this
@@giovannicupello1977 👍
Imagine walking in to Thors Powergym, and there is Thor, 2,06 m 175 kg squatting 380 like it's nothing. And standing beside him spotting is a couple of guys that are almost as big or as big as Thor... Am I in Jotunheim with the Ice giants?
Next time I feel exhausted I’ll just remind myself that my body is using all its energy to grow.
Jesus Christ loves you repent from all sins amen
'If I can't fight for shit, what's Eddie then' 🤣
That 380 was rapid 😮
"This is like the Mecca". Thor had that look like "What the f--- is a Mecca"? Gotta love it.
I noticed that too.
Making the 380 (838) Skítlétt, restoring the balance during 330 (727), 232 (511) Easy bar squats, and the accessory work... *100% you are going to achieve both April 15th and the final December goal Hafthor!*
The windows off & on sounds were peak comedy good job editor😂😂💪
12:09 Thank you Thor for desolating that disrespectful lowlife scumbag! You will forever go down in history for doing that. Love this video! Lots of harcore and funny moments combined. Really enjoying this journey. Will be tuning in live from both UA-cam and Twitch to see you attempting to equal your Powerlifting total PR!
This is the best video so far. Getting monstrously strong at this point. Me and my two grandchildren are so excited for this Weekend!
4:14 The cutest moment of the entire journey right there! 😍 Hafthor's speed at his size really surprised me. Super quick in and out. The best thing is *after the Kiss, his fatigue disappeared!* 🥰
Loved it!
Yes Sir! Awesome progress Thor! My favourite part of course is 4:58 😂well next to the 225 Bench and 380 Squat that is. Keep up the fantastic work, 1100 incoming this weekend!
Thursday - Fails the last heavy deadlift.
Friday - Benches 5 plates, 2 girls, 80 kg dumbbells.
Bottomline: Never ever allow your failures to take you down, 'tomorrow' is a new day. Thank you Thor!
13:25 gotta love the Starcraft music tho! Awesome lifting as always Hafthor!
I watch weight lifting and star craft. I was like wtf do I have 2 videos on at once?
6:46 Hafthor promoting himself from the Rogue Dumbbell set to his custom made Silver Dumbbells were so nostalgic! 80 (176) for 6 easy reps for multiple sets and he shocked me! I thought he will achieve this level of Strength about 2 weeks later! It was really unbelievable!
Also loved Hafthor reaching a 5 blue plate Bench. Next huge goal is to see a 6 blue plate Bench. Hopefully it will happen around June/July. Fingers crossed.
Your fight with Eddie was epic! Fuck the haters. I have so much respect for you; preparing for years and truly learning the craft of boxing, even if its not going to be a career change. I believe you have what it takes to be the GOAT in powerlifting and crush strongman as well, if you plan on coming back like you said at the 2023 Arnolds.
The way he's transformed his strength from his boxing physic in such a short space of time, there is no doubt this bloke will be breaking power lifting records very soon 👏
"I'm tired, I'm fatigued" - still benching 225kg 🤣 this man is an absolute SAVAGE 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽 Big respect from South Africa!!!
Haha its like that cbum clip where he took his hoodie off and said damn Im so skinny
Squat depth was on point this time! 👌
Even more than what is necessary.
Awesome squat session Thor. That 380 was ass to the grass and came up easy. The lighter unbalance was also impressive in the recovery and control. Well done, keep progressing.
Man, the 837lb squat form was just impeccable but the bar speed was kissed by angels. Chef's kiss, bro.
It's the small things that matter. Every time I see Thor doing bar-only presses, it reminds me that the details and prep-work are important, no matter who you are or what you're doing.
Super!
You're an example for professionalism.
It's really good to feel you're not training alone. I'm guessing most of us are nowhere near this level, but we all experience the same things, just on a different scale. I'm trying for Pbs in Bench Press, Deadlift and Squats. (As a side interest to my main sport, rowing). Today I too felt tired, BP and DL, stayed the same, (67.5kgs and 135kgs) but surprised myself with a squat PB of 135kgs. (I am 56, 168cm and 70kgs ). So, thanks Thor, keep it going.
Good work!👍
Only a fool would bet against the frost giant not hitting his maximum, you got this Thor, Viking power.
The Frost Giant has proved many haters and doubters wrong in the past on multiple occasions and he will continue the legacy this Saturday. Can't wait brother. 💪🏻
@@Nirsterkur your right my brother, I hope he proves his doubters wrong and achieves his goals.
@@kevinmee3501 100% believing in him. 💪🏻 Frost Giant is about to unleash his Superhuman Viking Power!
@@Nirsterkur I'm happy we all want him to achieve it.
@bollong bollong yes never bet against the Viking.
Great to see this training series, warts and all. Hafthor starts out admitting he’s fatigued and not sure why. Well, yeah, he’s human. One the next session he loses his balance coming up from a squat; I thought he’d dump it behind him. Nope. Not only did he fight to regain control, he finished the set! That’s some impressive dedication.
This series has been great so far. Can't wait to see how the meet goes.
One video per day from Hafthor is perfect for my motivation !
Taking us along on your power lifting journey is class mate. Smash that 1100
You can always adjust your volume down alittle while keeping intensity high. Especially if the recovery becomes an issue for consecutive weeks. The weights you’re working with are super demanding on recovery. Could also throw in a deload even if you don’t have one programmed at this time since they’re really intended to be used when recovery is no longer happening. But of course I’m sure whoever is doing your programming is much smarter than I and probably already knows this. Just some thought
Fan meetings is a fantastic segment, please don't ever omit it from this series Hafthor. ❤️
Legit, always makes me smile to see how good he is to his fans.
@@Maplenr Often I view them as if I was the fan (in his/ her shoes), it definitely brings so much happiness. 🙂 Hafthor is very kind and caring to us fans.
You got this dude! Record is looking like it will be in reach! Keep pushing!
That recovery on the squat lift was pretty impressive. Love seeing the family helping you on the journey. You’ve got this 1100+
You are one of the best out there.
Beautiful video Haffi! Really enjoyed and wishing you all the best for the upcoming competition! XOXO
Iceland has the finest plates in the world. I would definitely put a lot of effort to improving my bench press.
Let’s gooooooo! 1100+ in the bag!
You'll break 1100, you're ready!
Can't help but notice you are using a nice selection of video game music as background. God Of War, Hades,... 😍🎶
This motivated me to lift, ty
Outstanding gentlemen great job! I
Always excited to see Thor drop a new video
The music playing in the background reminds me of 1980s action movie cheezmo 😃
You're killing it Thor
Just wanted to drop a message, thanking you for showing your journey on this. My benching form is SO much better because of watching your warm ups, for some reason it really connected with me. Much love Thor
Excellent, THOR. Nice '2 Maiden THOR Barbell Press ' for Reps !
well done mate , progression is going great , i think you will kill it later on in the year , your work ethics is really impressive
Keep up the great work
Good Luck💪
Great video. Good job bro 💪💪💪
You are an inspiration!!!
Great video 👍
Respect to Thor to admit he is human.
Go Thor! 💪
The editing is great also (Music and memes lol)
good work
when you get tired sleep. Rest and recovery is more important than the training after the training. Dr. Fred Hatfield wrote a book in the 70's when he trained Tom Platz. If you train to hard you deny the body a chance to recover. Also, muscle growth is faster than the tendons that pull the bones. You are training in weight range that requires more rest. When I was still lifting I would have to give myself almost 5 minutes between sets to keep the weight going.
great work.. Respect to Thor to admit he is human.
Let's go Hafthor!
Fuck ya big guy. Keep up the hard work.
Yes! Out of Tartarus from Hades, love that track for workouts!
My thoughts on reducing fatigue: cut volume but keep intensity the same, that's how I did my rest weeks in my last program. I would cut out all the extra unnecessary volume and just do the bare minimum to warm up to my high intensity lifts. Jamal Browner said that he likes to do 100 kg jumps, for example jump from 220 to 320 kg, "because wasting a bunch of energy. As long as your technique is good, you're moving properly, your hips are good and everything's good, all those weights in-between are just irrelevant."
So to conclude: if you want to reduce fatigue, reduce volume and keep intensity high, when your fatigue is back to normal go back to your original way of doing things (or keep some of the changes if you thought they're good even when you're not fatigued).
I really liked the addition of Crypt of Necrodancer theme song!
SLEEP! Recover is when you grow and repair. Epic squat, going the right way
5:46 holy Kardashian, i thought she was naked
You are the greatest ever sir! 11:18 what a squat! boom!
Love the brood war music
Subnautica, Crypt of The Necrodancer, Cyberpunk, how many soundtracks can one add in a single video xD Nice touch.
You got this Hafthor!
As a power lifter and a power lifting coach what I have personally noticed is when somebody comes in and they're feeling like mentally out of it. Or run down. Those are usually the best days and the reason I've noticed. Why is? Because. They are one hundred percent focused on lifting and getting the fuck out of the gym not screwing around
nice music, and overall video ofc
dude you are a machine, oh and I'm glad you bet the beast.
That Cyberpunk soundtrack tho :D Looking strong af my man!
Maybe you're just getting older....keep on being the huge inspiration that you are ....I'm 60 now been crushing weights since I was 20...definitely harder now ....but feels better when you achieve your goals...💪😎👌🇳🇿
🔥
That 380kg squat went up so damn easy it looked like a warm up, you could have done 4 or 5 with it confidently
Metal Gear Solid and Starcraft music and sound effects, awesome!
i love how your wife hypes you 🦖
Well she showed some serious coordination and strength herself in this video. Doing pushups on top of soda cans(bear cans?) is not something everyone can do.
Just needed to get the heart rate up then total domination of the bench
I loved the Terran song !!!
lets go hafthor you are an inspiration if only I was 9 inch taller id follow in your footsteps
The tiredness is called ascension bro🦄💫🌈2020 was hella time for spiritual growth, we re getting more lit as a planet more love n light ^_^ 🤟🏽💪🏽
Can’t wait for the 15th , no question you got 1100+
StarCraft music, gotta love it
Let's go!
That starcraft music was bussin!
I was tired yesterday...so I went to bed at 5pm and that helped a bunch
THOR!
Thank you for being a loyal subscriber! Hope you are doing well!
@@Hafthorjulius Thanks for sharing your journey with us. Been a big fan for years now and after the fight with Eddie you became my favorite strongman, since you really showed strength of character and how humble you are. Much respect, hope your fatique will settle quickly and I have no doubts you'll crush the PL-WR. You are a big inspiration. Keep up the fight!
Best regards from 🇩🇪
Don't forget that speed defies gravity as a Bench Press world record holder James Henderson said when teaching how to train for a 700 pound bench press.
💪💪💪
kinda nostalgia with Thor pressing that 80 kg dumbbells in his 200 kg-ish body weight era. C'mon THOR!! you can still make a bigger number !!
💪
StarCraft music! Nice hehe
Nice with some StarCraft tunes 😊
What is your diet like for powerlifting? Similar to competing in strongman?
Adding an oxygen tube to your cpap machine might help .... you shouldn't be waking up tired after 8 hours sleep.
Numbers are coming up! Be at the record in no time!
love the game music in these videos; starcraft, halo
at 14:40, isnt that music from Starcraft Brood Wars?
Among regular deadlift bar and Elephant bar which deadlift is easier for you and why ?
His PR on the regular bar is 27kg more then on the Elephant Bar, you have to keep in mind that you are not allowed to wear a suit or figure 8 straps at ASC while lifting on the elephant bar, while you can both of those things on the regular bar in a strongman setting
380 KG Squat moved like a warmup geez
Nothing like a laying arm press and a standing leg press
