@@joke4617 Just ignorance speaking from that fool. I started lifting heavy when I was 13, and I've had absolutely zero back issues whatsoever that would've "put me in a wheelchair" by now as he said it. If anything my back is healthier because I started lifting and strengthening it at a younger age, and I didn't even have a professional lifter like Ed as my father to teach me how to lift correctly...
So he broke his PR by 15kg, then walked it to the rack??? LOL seriously impressive. Must be that Beast mentality his dad is instilling in him. Way to go young Max!!!
Bro my back hurts watching this, let him develop strength with proper form the same way you would coaching any other person. This is basically ego lifting via your kid and the kid isn't old enough to know better himself
definitely know what u mean, when i got back into lifting i trained my back for a year before i even touched deadlifting because its very important that u can keep your back straight and have your back strong enough for the proper posture and learn to do deadlifts without the belt to strengthen your back naturally and then for your highest lift you put on the belt. I mean dont get me wrong its impressive for that age, just gotta be really safe about it.
@@TheJc1192 Max has been training since he was 8 years old and his dad is fucking eddie hall, if anyone knows how to look after a lifters body it's him. You guys are delusional as fuck.
Can see that his back was hurting on that 110 but he couldn't tell his dad cause you know kids and their "I Dont want to disappoint my dad" look lol I wouldn't recommend this either to anyone kid
To see a dad who lifted 500kg deadlift coach his son on the deadlift is beyond cool on so many levels. In theory there is no better person on Earth for that boy to learn from out of 8 billion people both practically and psychologically.
Appeal to authority fallacy, just because eddie deadlifted 500kgs doesn't mean he is a good teacher or even understands the mechanics of a deadlift. This is blatantly obvious in his sons horrific form and ego lifting.
Maximus is getting big! Deadlifting 265 at 11 years old is impressive! I can see him being a record setter in the deadlift within the next 10-15 years. Respect!
I’m a 60 year old athlete. I’ve been weight training since 83 when I was in the Navy and never stopped. I was an Ironman triathlete in my mid 40’s. My son is now 25. This is my opinion. Every article I’ve read on weight training with kids, states pre teens should concentrate on more body weight exercises like pushups, pull ups, core work etc. Their bodies aren’t even developed yet at 11! I totally disagree with having a 11 year old doing 1 rep max lifts with the big 3. It states in legit articles that heavy powerlifting with kids that aren’t even teens yet will affect their growth. Think about what his 1 rep max lifts are doing to his joints. How many push-ups can your son do? How long can he hold a plank? Can he pull his body weight up to a pull up bar? When I was a kid we had the Presidential physical fitness award we had to do in HS. We climbed ropes etc. my generation we stayed outside all day playing. This generation of kids due to social media, cell phones and helicopter parents will produce the most obese generation. Why do you think the armed forces recruiting is down? The majority of these kids couldn’t pass the PFT test and the ASVAB due to their sedentary ways. I love you Eddie! I’ve followed you for a long time! Take it from a Dad who cares. I’ve beat the shit out of my body since I was 18 and now have Osteoarthritis that I deal with and have to adjust my workout accordingly. This is just my opinion. He’s your son. I would hate to see him get hurt or even get burned out. Semper Fortis Eddie.
really good comment. In my opinion his son should master the basics first. Create good solid foundation with BW exxercises, lighter weights. Good trunk core muscles... Not forcing to do 1RM... 1 mistake and can cost his life and body a lot... His body is developing now, one wrong move and can cost him lifetime damage. I wish him all the best. This is just my point of view. Hope I am wrong and he can do better than his dad !!
@@Sol-01 risk of ligament and muscle tears are much higher you can imagine a max deadlift with a curved back elongating all the tissue and then lifting something realy heavy vs lifting or pushing your own bodyweight. How many serious injuryies have you heard of that came from bodyweight pushups squats or pullups? Im not saying lifting is bad not at all I lift weights myself but if you do it with bad form the risk of injury is so much higher then bodyweight exercises like pushups
I know Max is training with Eddie and proffesional trainers with much competence and experience and knows have to train optimal for maximum results, but that spinal with 120 kg on the bar surely can’t be healthy for a young boy.
That’s because he’s bringing up a young man not a snowflake He’s his dad and knows what’s best for him Do you really think he would push that much he would see his son get hurt !!!!! Have a word with yourselfs
@@adampemberton7870 I’m not saying that he does not care for his son, far from it. I’m saying the form he is using is not what is recommended for preserving good spine health. Completely accept that Eddie has won WSM and the first man to deadlift 500kg, but that doesn’t mean that this form is ok. As I said it’s a massive feat of strength for an 11 year old, but I worry for his spine. I’ve personally slipped my L5 to S1 and although I now continue to deadlift, it took me a long time to get back there and I’m always extremely careful as micro movements to the discs under load can cause disc herniations and from what I’ve had to deal with for now 10+ years (I’m 34 now), I’d hate to see a boy of 11 have problems with his back early on because he would then most likely be dealing with this issue for the rest of his life. There’s a famous powerlifter called Brian Carroll and also leading spine expert in the world Stuart McGill, who have written a lot about this because Brian had several back problems (disc issues + cracked vertebrae) and Stuart helped him recover and go on to win titles. I can pretty much guarantee they would be concerned at someone deadlifting with this technique, especially a boy of 11 with his whole life to look forward too.
@@adampemberton7870 i literally said that eddie know what he is doing, but a regular guy knows that a bent spine with heavy weight on can cause backproblems. But in the end I can’t jugde because I have knowledge of this subject, but I am using common knowledge. But is it really worth to push PRs for 11 year old with undeveloped bones. Would be curious of how coach greg would react to this video.
@JG-qe6rqthis was debunked a long time ago buddy lol plus this kid's genetics clearly he is much more physically mature than most 11 year olds, he's fine and I'd put money on him being absolutely healthy
I love seeing positive father/son interactions. Mostly because I never had a father in my life, and I know the struggles of not having one. I learned everything physical in my life by watching others, and that a lonely road at times. Coaches become incredibly important, and I had some great ones. I appreciate their time.
that's actually insane at 11. he is going to be an absolute BEAST. The big thing is you can see his mentality evolving, he's getting proper dialled in. not checked out the channel in a few months and he seems so different, great progression in lifting and confidence
good video but It's amazing how few people have heard of the banned Borlest books,I have a suggestion for those who train to read a book called "You are stronger than you think".
Genuine question for you Edward why does the bar start on the safety’s and not on the floor ? I know you need to put the weight on so it could be that but surely if max wasn’t lifting it off the safety’s first then he would have a little more left for the deadlift no? Or it is to build abit more strength?
hes teaching his son how to ego lift instead of correcting his form, everytime the bar dropped from the safeties i visibly cringed it doesnt look safe at all
The beauty of watching this is the fantastic relationship you have with your dad. He has time & energy for you. You can see Eddie loves you. That is priceless.
And working out burns off the energy so he isn't the bully. I was the same when young. I needed to burn off the energy or have problems with attention spans. I was never a bully, but it sure as hell made sure no bullies bothered me.
Yes why not focusing the technique first and later maybe increasing the weight.... The kid almost do all workout wrong but all blinded people say wow very strong but the kid destroy his joints ...
its very immoral to feed a vegan diet to animals. you dont know their physiology than better than nature. stop this nonsense. and then you play call of duty which involves "DEATH" and you treat it as if its the worse thing there is. your animals are forced in your prisons while you play video games. your killing people in video games and then you complain that death is a big issue. stop giving people ptsd from your video games.
120kg wow max thats amaxing, you lifting more than some adult men can lift. Always great to see you and your dad spending time together, I can see how proud your dad is to have you as his son. Keep up the training you will just get stronger and stronger each week.
@@jasonbarn88 clearly you don’t get the message, the nice pb is for positive enforcement, the last part of my comment is a constructive criticism. Hope you also level up sweetheart
nothing I said there was intended to be malicious. I understand where your heart is at but the fact is a true pb would be whatever anyone has max lifted with proper form. In my opinion this is child abuse lol. By Eddie not you. Read my comment again & pretend I said it in a matter of fact way & not like an asshole & that’s how I meant it to come off truly. I just hate to see future orthopedic problems with the kid because that’s exactly where he’s headed with this sort of training
In that case I agree with you in the cloudy future for that lower back, at some point I also thought about using your kid for content as a no no idea. But probably will continue using it so at least push for teach good technique hopefully, have a good one
@@rhiox412 I couldn’t agree more & I’m assuming he’ll naturally get better just being around the gym consistently but it gives me borderline anxiety watching the form. Unfortunately if Eddie is ok with how he’s lifted so far I don’t think much is going to change but like I said I think as he grows he’ll naturally start to understand technique & everything else more. You have a good one too I’m glad to see two people on the internet in a comment section can actually come to a mature conclusion & sift through disagreement or misunderstandings unlike most of the idiots I see on here lol
That was a spectacle! A special moment when everyone was cheering you on! Something that has aided my deadlift a lot is practicing the power clean. It's basically a deadlift, but the bar goes all the way up to front rack position, very explosively. It should build your coordination a lot and make you way more efficient, and explosive too. You'd probably just use 30 kg, with a pair of those big 5s. That's all you need for now. This way you get to practice the "off-the-ground" part of the deadlift with every rep. A narrow foot stance and hands just outside your legs is ideal, and I don't start bending my legs until I actually start the rep.
What a lovely way to knacker a young growing and developing spine. The number of kgs lifted shouldn't even be a thing at this age..it should all be about fun..fun, good form & technique, and more fun at this age....at least into later teens. Eddie may have a lot of experience..but I don't believe this is the optimum way to go with an 11 year old...no matter how "big" they are.
From his first video, I have seen MASSIVE improvements. Weights looking more controlled, lift cues good, form looking much much better. Very cool to see the progress, keep going. Even when you feel like you aren't progressing
@Jacksfit this is what effort looks like, this is what a 1 rep max looks like. Max putting most of us to shame. I'm sat here straining for him. Honestly 54tr old inspired by an 11yr old
I am thinking the same, my body would not have been able to what Maximus is doing, especially at his age. But he does have his fathers genetics so maybe he is just built different
I definitely think max should get some deadlift slippers for sure I think it would help him not slip. Other than that amazing life kid is gonna be an absolute beast
Only one thing I would suggest and I'm, no absolute expert by any means. Is not to deadlift in socks. I noticed with the 120 is feet were slipping apart. But he's such a mini beast. Awesome stuff.
Yep anyone one else young or old they'd jump on with the criticism (and rightly so) but because his dad it's suddenly okay? You can tell it's too heavy and he probably just wants to impress his dad which is sad as his dad should be teaching him the number one thing is technique.
Forget all the weightlifiting part, there are so many people in the world (myself included) who don't have this relationship with their father, its great to see and makes someone like myself who didn't get that sort of parenting almost a secondhand happiness seeing that there are fathers out there who actually give a fuck.
I started lifting beginning of this year (34 yr old, 194lbs) and my PB to date is 285lbs (roughly 130kg). Going for 136kg end of this month! Looking forward to see your progress as well man! Keep it up! Better watch out Eddie, I think you've got a record breaker on your hands!
Love watching Max's progress, started back at the gym 9 months ago, then kept going once I joined beast Academy. Failed a PR on Saturday just gone and going to try hit it again in 2 weeks
@@itsmebd7422 you know what, initially i felt the hate towards the kid was because people are feeling insecure, but idk how he normally trains. but surely eddie knows that its not good to max out like that especially with bad form, theres literally not one video of eddie lifting with bad form even at his max attempts, so it does seem a bit strange that he seems to be advocating for his sons fairly bad form, honestly it would be more impressive to see him do working sets with 100kg for example than strain his back like that going for pr in what seems like every video, i get he's young but eddie should have the gym maturity to show his son better
Shame on yall commenting and praising him when you can clearly see that he is lifting with bad form and he shouldnt push that far. Also i think its crazy that Eddie is saying "easy" after that 110kg lift. I mean its great to see him lifting but there is no one here teaching him to be safe and no point of ego lifting. Also reminds that, even when you are one of the strongest men in the world, it doesnt mean you know anything about lifting or teach it.
Max that look of intence focus ment you wanted that PB and nothing was going to stop you,keep it buddy! Having your dad and luke there to support you is the best sort
Eddie is 1 of the strongest people in history. Its not like he failed and is now trying to live through max. They are in it together. Its very wholesome really
God damn. That's insane. Congratulations on the PB Max! And man, you can already see he is getting his father's competitive intensity. Look at that focused stare @4:57
From the video, he looks every bit of 5'9", & he's still 11 years old?. Damn. Im predicting 6'2" by 15, & as big as 6'7" fully grown. His mom is 6' tall, & he looks like Tom Stoltman, so that's playing in his favour XD. I'm calling it here, Max will be taller than Eddie in just under 4 years.
@@1nicelad This is how I break down Max's growth over the years. He's only 5" shorter than his dad, & will be turning only 12 in July. In just over 24 months, I'm predicting he'll be in the 6' club. Grade 8: 6' Grade 9: 6'2 Grade 10: 6'4 Grade 11: 6'5 Grade 12: 6'6 I can't picture him being shorter than 6'6" tbh. Might even get as tall as Tom Stoltman.
They should be careful. Some people would say no max lifts before about 14!... I have seen him deadlift with a slightly convex back then stand up making a face like his back hurts! Got to be careful. But saying that, he's 11 and is doing that, nuts, he's growing up so quick now. If things go well he could be bigger and stronger than Eddie,..but yeh.. health is more important!
@@MarkusHuus-hw8rc It is not a myth as someone who has experience in genetics and the development of an individual, I am in control of all the studies in the world and this destroys the development of the child, I have more knowledge and a higher IQ than Eddie Hall, I am an educated person, unlike influencers.
Well you're actually very close but not quite The current literature actually states that lifting weights under the age of 16 is safe as long as form is good and that the lifter is not maxing out. You're right in that Eddie's son should absolutely not be maxing out, but kids can and should lift with resistance to some degree.

its very immoral to feed a vegan diet to animals. you dont know their physiology than better than nature. stop this nonsense. and then you play call of duty which involves "DEATH" and you treat it as if its the worse thing there is. your animals are forced in your prisons while you play video games. your killing people in video games and then you complain that death is a big issue. stop giving people ptsd from your video games.
Still desperate for clout to help your dying channel i see
Why did you run when i asked for an argument
bro wants to debate an 11year old 😂😂😂
Zealots!
120kg wow max thats amaxing, you lifting more than some adult men can lift. Always great to see you and your dad spending time together, I can see how proud your dad is to have you as his son. Keep up the training you will just get stronger and stronger each week.
CRAZY BRUH!!!! Strong as hell... Keep going Max
Prayer's up for this kid's spine.
his is gunna be stronger than yours..
@@mass-cp6jf Not how that works unfortunately.
@mass-cp6jf Spines aren't strong or weak but they do get damaged. Nice try on being an internet smartarse though.
@@andrewnevermind4902 the muscles around the spine make it strong you door knob.
I hope he is still alive 😂 because the impact of what he did is severe
nice pb, but i would love to see eddie, teaching him first good technique to avoid that rounded back/posible injury,, wish safe lifts.
How is it a “nice pb” if the form was absolutely terrible?
@@jasonbarn88 clearly you don’t get the message, the nice pb is for positive enforcement, the last part of my comment is a constructive criticism. Hope you also level up sweetheart
nothing I said there was intended to be malicious. I understand where your heart is at but the fact is a true pb would be whatever anyone has max lifted with proper form. In my opinion this is child abuse lol. By Eddie not you. Read my comment again & pretend I said it in a matter of fact way & not like an asshole & that’s how I meant it to come off truly. I just hate to see future orthopedic problems with the kid because that’s exactly where he’s headed with this sort of training
In that case I agree with you in the cloudy future for that lower back, at some point I also thought about using your kid for content as a no no idea. But probably will continue using it so at least push for teach good technique hopefully, have a good one
@@rhiox412 I couldn’t agree more & I’m assuming he’ll naturally get better just being around the gym consistently but it gives me borderline anxiety watching the form. Unfortunately if Eddie is ok with how he’s lifted so far I don’t think much is going to change but like I said I think as he grows he’ll naturally start to understand technique & everything else more. You have a good one too I’m glad to see two people on the internet in a comment section can actually come to a mature conclusion & sift through disagreement or misunderstandings unlike most of the idiots I see on here lol
Eddie is the kind of dad everyone needs
Very inspirational and supportive ❤
This is hard to watch. A life of back pain awaits. Poor child
He’s almost as tall as his dad, We’ve seen him grow up a lot, love the effort Max❤🎉😊
that boy is spreadin out, way to go max, listen to your paw, he loves ya.
That was a spectacle! A special moment when everyone was cheering you on! Something that has aided my deadlift a lot is practicing the power clean. It's basically a deadlift, but the bar goes all the way up to front rack position, very explosively. It should build your coordination a lot and make you way more efficient, and explosive too. You'd probably just use 30 kg, with a pair of those big 5s. That's all you need for now. This way you get to practice the "off-the-ground" part of the deadlift with every rep. A narrow foot stance and hands just outside your legs is ideal, and I don't start bending my legs until I actually start the rep.
What a lovely way to knacker a young growing and developing spine.
The number of kgs lifted shouldn't even be a thing at this age..it should all be about fun..fun, good form & technique, and more fun at this age....at least into later teens.
Eddie may have a lot of experience..but I don't believe this is the optimum way to go with an 11 year old...no matter how "big" they are.
Don't let ignorance get in the way of making a rude comment to a kid.
From his first video, I have seen MASSIVE improvements. Weights looking more controlled, lift cues good, form looking much much better. Very cool to see the progress, keep going. Even when you feel like you aren't progressing
He has no muscle . Kids shouldn't be powerflifters and would prefer to have a nice looking and strong body.
Max I'm proud of you mate. Keep it up!
Im so stoked to see this kid with elite genetics and elite coaching grow up! In 4 years he'll be so strong
Been awhile! Progress is insane 👊🏽
Max has got the eye of the tiger. He has a fighter spirit you can see it in his eyes clear as day. Great job Hall lads!!
kid is going way too heavy....
120kg deadlift at 11 is insane. You should get him into rugby, he would be an absolute beast.
Go on lad! Maximum effort! Be proud 👊🏻💪🏻
If he does not injure himself he is gonna be a beast version 2 when he is 25. But i would advice that he does not do 1 rep max it's really dangerous.
Wow max is almost taller than you Eddie. He’s becoming the beast jr
You're seeing it wrong, Eddie is becoming Little beast.
@@mrsensei8878 Eddie might be sliming down but he still strong I bet he can still lift 1000 pounds of the ground
@humbertoportal3744
I'm joking that he becomes little beast because Max is going to be taller.
@@humbertoportal3744 Eddie haven't lifted more than 320kg since 2017.. Except for the fake weights last year..
How tall is the kid?...5'7 ish?
@Jacksfit this is what effort looks like, this is what a 1 rep max looks like. Max putting most of us to shame. I'm sat here straining for him. Honestly 54tr old inspired by an 11yr old
This is seriously impressive
Respect Max. It's always so good to watch these videos!
Don’t come at me for this alright. I’m very aware this is stupidly impressive. But the form…..
I am thinking the same, my body would not have been able to what Maximus is doing, especially at his age. But he does have his fathers genetics so maybe he is just built different
its a pr + eddie is trying to teach him form break down is very common at pr
@@square7935 a lot of elite lifters who are compete in the sport for a long time have a textbook form on the pr's compared to most lifters
Eddie talks about the form at the end..
@@square7935yes pr attemts are never healthy, but his point is hes too young for pr records like that. his spine is still growing
This was not necessary, he is a child here careful with his heart.💪
That was damn good Max!! Team Beast!
I definitely think max should get some deadlift slippers for sure I think it would help him not slip. Other than that amazing life kid is gonna be an absolute beast
If you can't lift weight with the correct form, go lighter. That looked like spinal damage in the making.
Only one thing I would suggest and I'm, no absolute expert by any means. Is not to deadlift in socks. I noticed with the 120 is feet were slipping apart. But he's such a mini beast. Awesome stuff.
Let’s be honest maxes form is pretty bad on lots of excerises but because Eddie is world strongest man everyone just says he knows what he’s doing
Yep anyone one else young or old they'd jump on with the criticism (and rightly so) but because his dad it's suddenly okay?
You can tell it's too heavy and he probably just wants to impress his dad which is sad as his dad should be teaching him the number one thing is technique.
Max is a BEAST already. World's strongest man by the age of 20. Big fan of Eddie as an athlete and father 🖤
120 kg deadlift before puberty, wrap your head around that
Rory Van deadlifted 144kg at 40kg at 11 years old and is a female
@@kusftuod bollocks
Forget all the weightlifiting part, there are so many people in the world (myself included) who don't have this relationship with their father, its great to see and makes someone like myself who didn't get that sort of parenting almost a secondhand happiness seeing that there are fathers out there who actually give a fuck.
Max is killing it !
This is so wholesome .
I truly believe this kid gets scolded if he doesn't follow his father's footsteps
Max seems more stoic than he used be. Boy is growing up! You must be proud, Eddie!
I started lifting beginning of this year (34 yr old, 194lbs) and my PB to date is 285lbs (roughly 130kg). Going for 136kg end of this month! Looking forward to see your progress as well man! Keep it up! Better watch out Eddie, I think you've got a record breaker on your hands!
Love watching Max's progress, started back at the gym 9 months ago, then kept going once I joined beast Academy. Failed a PR on Saturday just gone and going to try hit it again in 2 weeks
This guy wants to see gis kid in a wheelchair so bad 😂
yeah for real
You just mad an 11 year old can deadlift more then you
@@NewGrow-kb1bg no bro just look at the video and be honest. Can that form be healthy for a growing body pre puberty ?
@@itsmebd7422 you know what, initially i felt the hate towards the kid was because people are feeling insecure, but idk how he normally trains. but surely eddie knows that its not good to max out like that especially with bad form, theres literally not one video of eddie lifting with bad form even at his max attempts, so it does seem a bit strange that he seems to be advocating for his sons fairly bad form, honestly it would be more impressive to see him do working sets with 100kg for example than strain his back like that going for pr in what seems like every video, i get he's young but eddie should have the gym maturity to show his son better
@@Transformwithpuvi Eddie SHOULD know better.
Damn. Warms my heart to see Eddie being such a good father! Not to the mention a monster of a lift from an 11-year old. Well done, Maximus!! 👏
That depressing moment when you realise an 11 year old is stronger than you 😢
New TV show, ‘Are You Stronger Than A 5th Grader?’
Try going to a world climbing competition and realise the 11 girls warm up on routes harder that you can't hope to climb...
Well sadly you can feel better in a few years when his back is thrown out and he can't lift anymore...
Would not be surprised if he gets 3 plates before he turns 12, and break the 500lb mark by 14. Progress is crazy fast.
Shame on yall commenting and praising him when you can clearly see that he is lifting with bad form and he shouldnt push that far. Also i think its crazy that Eddie is saying "easy" after that 110kg lift. I mean its great to see him lifting but there is no one here teaching him to be safe and no point of ego lifting. Also reminds that, even when you are one of the strongest men in the world, it doesnt mean you know anything about lifting or teach it.
im sure that 11 yr old knows more than you😂😂😂
Yup
@@bgmike420 highly doubtful in very arrogant presumptuous of you
It awesome seeing a father and son work out together the fact that he got his dad by his side guarantees greatness
Super impressive. If he keeps deadlifting like this, ive no doubt he can be washed up by the time hes 19 👍
I love these videos. How much was your Dad's deadlift PB at 11-years-old?
This kid is so lucky to have such a supportive Dad!
A narcassist with his son. He has no chance
Max that look of intence focus ment you wanted that PB and nothing was going to stop you,keep it buddy! Having your dad and luke there to support you is the best sort
What the hell is he doing to his child
He lost his mind.
I love that you can share that together, amazing dad, and excellent effort from the young lad.
This was not necessary, he is a child here careful with his heart.
ur just clueeless
Lol it's very healthy to workout
Eddie is 1 of the strongest people in history. Its not like he failed and is now trying to live through max. They are in it together. Its very wholesome really
They won't be in it together for long if he continues deadlifting with your form
@@karlfernandes1367 blast some growth hormone and it will be fine
God damn. That's insane. Congratulations on the PB Max! And man, you can already see he is getting his father's competitive intensity. Look at that focused stare @4:57
more like ruining him whit all that ego lifting, its way to heavy, should concentrate on better form insted
Boy is getting really strong. Glad to see Max is so dedicated to doing this. He has a really good mind set, also a pretty good teacher ❤.
I predict Max will be taller than his dad .... Around 6'4 - 6'6 .... What does everybody else guess??
From the video, he looks every bit of 5'9", & he's still 11 years old?. Damn. Im predicting 6'2" by 15, & as big as 6'7" fully grown. His mom is 6' tall, & he looks like Tom Stoltman, so that's playing in his favour XD. I'm calling it here, Max will be taller than Eddie in just under 4 years.
@@MrTrevorg18
He can be like Baron Trump..Donald and Melania are the same height as Max's Hall parents.
Baron is around 6'7
@@MrTrevorg18 Interesting, I wonder how tall Tom was at 11
@@1nicelad This is how I break down Max's growth over the years. He's only 5" shorter than his dad, & will be turning only 12 in July. In just over 24 months, I'm predicting he'll be in the 6' club.
Grade 8: 6'
Grade 9: 6'2
Grade 10: 6'4
Grade 11: 6'5
Grade 12: 6'6
I can't picture him being shorter than 6'6" tbh. Might even get as tall as Tom Stoltman.
@@MrTrevorg18 true
Proud of you mate! Can see how much your confidence is coming on, bring on the beast!
11 years old . His back will be smashed before he's 20
They should be careful. Some people would say no max lifts before about 14!... I have seen him deadlift with a slightly convex back then stand up making a face like his back hurts! Got to be careful. But saying that, he's 11 and is doing that, nuts, he's growing up so quick now. If things go well he could be bigger and stronger than Eddie,..but yeh.. health is more important!
Looking at his two biggest deads in this session, his back is too convex! Makes me wince!
Great work Maximus
5:40 this doesnt look healthy man
Most I ever lifted with bad form in my early 20s was a couple of back axles and a few gearboxes. I regret that to this day. My lower back is f##cked.
Due to the child's development, I would not allow the child to start exercising with weights before the age of 15.
Myth . Go away boomer
@@MarkusHuus-hw8rc It is not a myth as someone who has experience in genetics and the development of an individual, I am in control of all the studies in the world and this destroys the development of the child, I have more knowledge and a higher IQ than Eddie Hall, I am an educated person, unlike influencers.
@@karelkrizek6917 ok then, what about the kids development ?
Well you're actually very close but not quite The current literature actually states that lifting weights under the age of 16 is safe as long as form is good and that the lifter is not maxing out. You're right in that Eddie's son should absolutely not be maxing out, but kids can and should lift with resistance to some degree.
@@karelkrizek6917 lifting weights does not affect your heights.
Injuries can however effect your growth plates but those injuries are usually caused by playing sports not weight training.
Telling him you gotta rip it off the floor on a slippery surface with socks on is not advice I'd expect from an accomplished athlete.
Irresponsible parenting at its finest.
