- Martins Licis-reigning World’s Strongest Man-is hoping to improve on last year’s runner-up finish in Columbus. Suffice it to say, the 29 year-old Latvian-American is no longer flying under the radar. Back in training, after winning the 2020 Arnold Pro Strongman USA Qualifier, he’s ramping up his workouts and fine-tuning his form in an attempt to take down the 2x defending Arnold Classic champion, Hafthor Bjornnson.
Rogue’s complete live stream of the 2020 Arnold Strongman Classic begins here on Friday, March 6, at 1 PM EST. 10 strongmen will compete in 6 events over 2 days for the title of Arnold Strongman Classic Champion. Rogue’s coverage of the Arnold Classic weekend will include daily episodes of the Rogue Iron Game show featuring guests from the worlds of Strongman, Olympic Lifting, Powerlifting, and CrossFit. We will also be streaming the full 2020 Rogue Record Breakers competition and the IWF Rogue World Challenge.

Whats up everybody!
Sup Mateusz!
Martins you look 10x cooler in this video
Howdy.
Arnold Classic is yours to take
I’m a dung beetle everybody!
Hearing one of the strongest men in the world talk about the weight of a paint pallet just brings a smile to your face. 🎨 💪
*the strongest man
Overdose Nah. WSM is just one strongman comp. doesn’t mean you’re the strongest, especially when the favourite was seriously injured. Right now the strongest human on the planet is Thor, or Daniel Bell
@@hg_10sm68 daniel is a powerlifter, not strongman. (obviously he is strong but not this kind of strong)
Dumbelmore Caprio of course, but we are talking strongest humans on the planet so the strongest powerlifter has to be in the picture
Gore4ever FulciLives aye you’re right it’s tough to compare but for sake of fairness I think you have to include someone like Bell who is dominating powerlifting at the moment - I don’t think many strongmen could total 1127.5kg in only sleeves, even with a few years of training - probably only Thor, prime Eddie & Z could
Huh,didn't know Martins is actually a good painter.
Damn Good one
HOUUULD UP, wait wtf those paintings are outrageously beautiful
Fabian Mango I want to buy one
C Dundee same
Doesn't say those are done by him, except the baby Yoda one.
stoneeh He talked about one of them with Juji Mufu, I am pretty sure they are his
@@stoneeh those are his, you should also check his "A day in my life" video where he painted his home town from Latvia if I remember correctly. He's truly a man of many talents :D
Martins could play Wreck it Ralph in a live action
Pallín I’ve always thought this
i feel like HE IS Wreck it Ralp ! MARTIIINS!
Pallín good eye.
Waiting on Mateusz's Road to Arnold 2020 CMON ROGUE
they have already done one on him
@@johannesskulstad7436 what 2020???
@@astropolski Yes came out.last week
@@Ravishrex1 just checked no it didn't that was mikhail
@@johannesskulstad7436 they did one last year but not this
Martin's licis- like a big kid who doesnt know his own strength. Love him. legend
Martins has achieved more than many people have ever thought that he would. The Dragon shall triumph.
Yeah hes good but the mountain is another level this year
@@provocunt8673 Idk. The WSM contest seems to have become more about overall power (strength + speed and mobility) rather than just brute strength as it was in the past. Thor definitely has a huge edge over Martins in strength alone, but I think he's going to have a lot of trouble lugging around his 200kg+ frame.
@@robjef622 he is very mobile for his weight just have a look at the sparring fight against conor mcgregor where he assumingly weight about 15kilos less than now. Last year he was injured and still got third. I dont see how there is anyone who can beat him this year but we will find out soon.
@@robjef622 He came first in the loading race at wsm 2018 at 200kg bw 😂 He placed badly last year because of his torn plantar fascia. Thor has always been one of the most mobile guys despite his higher bw.
Martins is definetly my favourite strongman. What a character! What a sportsman! What a weapon!
Martins is similar to Seth Rogen, only much stronger and waaay funnier!
What A character indeed!
One of my favorite personalities in strong man. You can tell that this dude is unique and though at the end of the day hes trying to beat everyone else he cares about the sport and his friends in it.
Martins is looking pretty beat up as of late, on the flip side Thor has never looked better. If Martins pulls this one off I'll be surprised
Idk, he always looks just absolutely depleted come competition, and then he just does phenomenal
@@superawsomeblitz Because Martins trains pretty carb depleted, then come competition time, he overcompensates
@@superawsomeblitz this was a great video, really shows just how big he's gotten in just a couple years
@@JHMninja89 Is this something he's talked about? I also think he does really well under pressure he's just one of those guys.
He is a fighter, he gets that extra Motivation in the competition when it matters the most
Thor: I usually need 12-16 weeks to properly peak for a show.
Martins: the past few weeks have been hard. I have two weeks to peak. It's doable.
Call me naive, but I really believe if competitors never knew the events until the week of the contests, Martins would be undefeated.
Yeah, Martins has a background in a wide variety of sports which makes him probably the most allround of all the strongmen. He might not be the strongest but he's extremely skillful. I really find it fascinating how he always seems to find a way to perform even if his preparation was disrupted.
@@Olivier-wm9mh u r totally right. He us not the strongest but surely he's smart and very very skillfull
I love the contrast of Martins' size at 3:30. I'm so used to seeing him next to people like Brian Shaw and Thor and they make him look small, but then you see him next to a normal sized person and it sets in that he's actually very large.
Absolute unit!
Thank you Rogue for doing these videos, its great getting to know the athletes before the games. Makes it so much more enjoyable and you start to really root for these heroes
Mateu.. I mean, MARTIINS!
It flows naturaly right ?
How dare you
@@MartinsLicis 😂😂👌💪
Martins is a real life anime hero.
Martins has to be one of the most likeable people on the planet! You can't help but to want the best for him.. MARTINS!!!
4:44 Romark has left the chat
😹
How do you not like this warmed hearted and multi talented giant.
I would've never imagined he was a painter! They're amazing paintings.
I love the videos rogue makes about the arnold classic. They're made so well, and the cinematography is outstanding.
Holly hell how can I get me one of those paintings
Currently sitting in Amherst Massachusetts watching this. MARTINS!!! ✊
MARTINS!!!!
I am Polish so I am fan of Mateusz but I watching your videos and I wish you to break the world record!!
Martins is so like able. Actually most of the strongmen are.
I really like Martins, comes up both humble and really nice/friendly despite being an absolute beast !
Great mix between american and latvian/eastern european characters/cultures.
WAR THE DRAGON !!!!!
Seeing Martins act serious in a video is terrifying. He looks focused like a laser. Can't wait to see how everybody does. MARTINS!
Not gonna lie got a little emotional watching, a savage beast training but yet so gentle to create masterpieces, with brush strokes..wish you all the best dragon!💪😎🤙👊
Love the creativity that they have to figure out how to train for the Conan Wheel
Hope he does well he’s had it hard this last few months
Martins has gotten so big since I first saw him compete, reminds of the journey Brian had taken to reach his ultimate peak. Looking forward to see Martins hit his prime. Good luck big guy
Martin's is the superhero we all need right now
Definaltey my favourite outside of the brits and the vikings love his outlook on life in general. Keep going Martins!!!!!!
When Martins does his Odd Haugen voice he sounds like the Sweedish Chef from the Muppets.
This man is scary...i don't think hes even close to peaking. His focus on accessories and mobility really make it crazy to imagine where he'll be at in 5 or so years with even more mass. And hes already worlds strongest man.
Good Luck to Martins! Never met, but seems to be a genuine nice guy and ambassador of the sport!
All I gotta say is. We love you and baby Yoda lol
Man martins seem like a great guy, I'm glad I've been subscribed to his great channel before he became wsm 2019, what I like the most about his videos is how he explains every details about the work he does and the technique and why he needs it.
Great video! It really shows how humble and genuine these guys are especially Martins Licis!!
Everybody loves Martins
I went to the Santa Monica finals and max was killing it. I was shocked he didn’t win but I really wanted to see Martins at Columbus again!
MARTIIIINS
had no idea about the painting. great video, rogue.
martins is easily my favorite strongman these days. love his content and his personality. definitely embodies the sport in the best ways
Huge fan Martins. Was waiting for your road to the Arnold video. Rooting for you to take it home this year.
Love this guy. Serious about his business but can keep things reasonably light. Best luck in competition.
For the past several years we see the downfall of standarts in bodybuilding, but the rise in strongmen!
Martins training techniques are incredible
A legend training a young king, damn
This is how strongman videos should be made.
I think the best thing you can do is simulate the events that are going to be in the competition in training, basically using the Eddie Hall formula. Martins definitely has an advantage with all the nice gear he's got and how he's approaching his training.
"Eddie Hall formula" lmao, you think Eddie was the first man to simulate the events used in the competition?
MARTINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much for uploading this. Rogue and Martins. 🙏
Good luck at the Arnold!!! Your fans will be there in spirit despite the damn virus scare.
this video makes him seem like a brooding badass but in reality he's just a super fun and funny guy
This is a really good Road to the Arnold video. It’s almost as good as Mateusz’s.
Anyone remember when Jujimufu wanted to do strongman & trained at his gym?
@A.A.Ron Davis Juji tries everything out for the videos.And these are fun to watch!
A.A.Ron Davis Larry seems to have lost his focus. Appears to be too interested in instagram and selling merch :(
Wtf his paintings are insane
Martins! easy in the top 3 for arnolds ohio. He may not be the biggest, but he has technique like no other. He reminds me of Magnús Ver Magnússon, his first wsm win he was a reserve and came in because someone dropped out. No one expected him to win and now he's in the WSM hall of fame with 4x titles
Hello! I from Yakutia(Russia). Yakutia capitol of mas wrestling.
Omg does Martins take commissions? I really want a painting of Mateusz signed by Martins
Odd Haugens gym seems like just an awesome place to train.
The production value on this is amazing!
MARTINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Me : OHH Let's try 8k
My connection :
#GoForItMartins I wish you all the best Bro!
Arnolds 2019: We Have the WHEEL OF PAIN!!!
Martins: *hold my beer*
Great videos, Rogue. Excellent media team.
Holy shit. His paintings are awesome
Mucha energía desde Perú para la competencia de esta semana. Martiiiiiins!
Love your work bro, good luck in the next show.
Awesome video! These vids get me hyped to train! Keep them coming. :)
So when does this movie come out?
Fantastic material 👌Rogue take strongman for different levels 👍
Very cool video man, love it.
MARTIINSSS🍊🐉🐲
6:57 Also, can I Wreck It?
I love these!
Most charismatic strongman imo.
Thanks Rogue
HOLY SHIT NICE EDITING
MARTINS! I'll be cheering for the World's Strongest Weeb
Now this is a Rogue video, wow.
I love licis man but brian has got to win this 5th WSM this year, Martins has a bright future and Thor isn’t done either
Goddamn whata fucking trailer. that shit was phenomenal. Had chills at the end
Viel Glück dabei.
These are so well made damn!
LETS GO MARTINS
Martin was excellent but Mateuz dominated thể timber carry
CANT WAIT
Martin! You got this legend.
Legendary
As long as Martins has rotator warmup objects, he has the Arnold in the bag.
Respect the DRAGON!!
I want to see him go berserk every event and crush everybody else in the competition 🔥🔥🔥
I'm so F-ing hyped! Go Martins! Everyone's (second) favourite strongman !!!:D
It’s probably pretty obvious. But this man is the future of Strong man.
Good Luck Champ!
Where is the link for a reminder of the live stream?
