Absolute credit to a strongman who has achieved so much in his career, arguably one of the best men to ever compete at strongman. Such a humble guy and to add to it all he does his videos in english for those of us who can't speak a different language. A man who deserves respect!
@@seohyunkim5655 I agree, I think that so far there is only one other guy who had the potential to challenge for the G.O.A.T. position and that was Hafthor Bjornson, but he quite right in his prime.
@@theshnock4742 tf are you talking about? Hafthor has one title and three Arnold's. Shaw has 4 titles ans a tie, and three Arnold's. Big Z has 4 titles and 8 Arnold's, more prestigious trophies than any strongman to ever live. Thor isn't even in the conversation.
@@lightspamorochi766 I'm not talking about past achievements, I am talking about flat out potential i.e. what he could have potentially achieved if he didn't retire so early in his prime.
He's the former worlds strongest man, the GOAT even, but there is only one strongest man at any given time and that's currently Tom Stoltman. I've noticed a lot of the former worlds strongest men going around calling themselves the world's strongest man, maybe they think it's like US presidents where they get to keep the title forever.
I think he considers participating in WSM again. Žydrūnas was at this year's competition as a spectator. I think he went to scout younger generation - to see their strengths, weaknesses. Big Z probably weighing his chances against them.
I really enjoy these training videos. Straight to the point: weights, number of sets and reps. Demonstration of good form. Order of the exercices. Very concise and gives the best outlook.
argold80 production quality also somehow adds to this vibe. Literally just plastered a sound track and pressed stop more or less when he starts talking 😂😂😂😂 i fucking love this channel.
In his defense he doesn't train it, it's not super usefull for strongman. 240kg is fucking freaky for a dude who doesn't focus on it lol. He's done 300kg I believe in his powerlifting days
Zydrunas you are such an inspiration to thousands of strength fans around the world thank you for everything you have done for so long & all the best for the shaw classic
I would like to see you training strongman events and giving a few tips to improve performance. Love to see you on every video, we always can learn from the GOAT
Straight respect for Z an his unstoppable strength of mind and body. And maaan most of us couldn't count 240kg let alone lift it brother. A humble man, Salute!
This is the only channel I have subscribed on UA-cam. Please don't change video style big z. Its very peaceful to listen to and no other bullshit like other channels.
I believe Luke Stoltman will be at the Shaw classic, he will be looking at winning the Max log, dont get injured, looking forward to your results, hopefully First place in the log and overall...
I started palming one end of the aerobic dumbells and aiming for 1 minute holds, alternating that with plate pinches. If you show some grip stuff can you not 1 rep burn yourself out but show if you can pinch and hold say 2, 10 kg plates in each hand.

The Best. Everything else is understatement
@@fabiank485 I agree man, I think Big Z is the greatest strongman in the world ever.

Big Z is the ultimate world strongest man but yet he seems a down to earth and a humble man!
Keep it up Big Z and thanks for all your videos.👍
Simply put he is the GOAT
He's the former worlds strongest man, the GOAT even,
but there is only one strongest man at any given time and that's currently Tom Stoltman.
I've noticed a lot of the former worlds strongest men going around calling themselves the world's strongest man,
maybe they think it's like US presidents where they get to keep the title forever.
I honestly believe it's due to his broken English. Prevents him from blurting out any stupid opinions.
We all want to see Z back at WSM!!!
I think he considers participating in WSM again. Žydrūnas was at this year's competition as a spectator. I think he went to scout younger generation - to see their strengths, weaknesses. Big Z probably weighing his chances against them.
He could've done this years wsm no doubt.
@PlayWith Doodle Mike tyson about to make the fantasy come come true
@PlayWith Doodle I think this year he would have done well, with Thor and Mateusz out. A lot of old dogs and youngsters who haven't nearly peaked yet

@@Shm00ly It adds to the authenticity ;)
I agree, more of these videos.
Hr assumes you r taking notes
Big Z putting out workouts and strongman tips in English needs way more hype. Big thanks for everything you have done and continue to do!
280kg on the bench press perhaps 20 years ago, to 240 kg as a strongman is till very impressive! 😱💪🏼💪🏼
Big Z, i love how relaxed your channel is. Please do another series where you go through your day eating and working out.
What do you think of doing a “Big Z eats” series where you eat/make traditional Lithuanian dishes for cheat meals?
Bajalan Soma- you should hear what Lithuania thinks about you
@Bajalan Soma Never insult a whole country . This is so wrong.
@Bajalan Soma explain how
Benchpress not so bad, I bench around 240kg. Lol, massive bench.
In his defense he doesn't train it, it's not super usefull for strongman. 240kg is fucking freaky for a dude who doesn't focus on it lol. He's done 300kg I believe in his powerlifting days
@@hockeyfreak896890 I know, thats why 240 is alot.
I bench around 320
watch out keyboard warriors here, i bench 360kg for warm up btw
@@TF-mn1wo I was there for that bro, I remember Joe and Fred loaded 650kg on the bar but Fred of course put the extra 25kg on the one side. Silly
The most decorated man in strongman history. 8 arnold wins is just Incredible.
Zydrunas you are such an inspiration to thousands of strength fans around the world thank you for everything you have done for so long & all the best for the shaw classic
This man can do everything in strongman from A to "Z" !!!!!!
I have very fond memories watching his early WSM appearances and always rooting for him vs pudjinowski
Love seeing the power.
Love seeing Big Z workouts. nothing too complex, straight to the point, and super functional. Gonna incorporate these things in my workouts too!
Thank you for the videos. Another week with Big Z would be entertaining. But the way you're doing videos now is just as good.
Incredible man. Expanded powerlifting and Lithuanian strength worldwide no end. 🙏
More training videos Big Z! I watch before I go to do my strongman training thank you for the inspirational videos...

This is the only channel I have subscribed on UA-cam. Please don't change video style big z. Its very peaceful to listen to and no other bullshit like other channels.
Big Z is the best. Would be good to see some accessory training for different strongman events.
Looking strong Z!!!
Gražu žiūrėti, tikra legenda. Iš video norėtusi geresnės garso kokybės.
Thanks Big Z
thank you big Z
Zydrunas can't wait to watch you in the Shaw Classic!
Can’t wait to see u and Brian go at it yet again... safe travels to Colorado
You should upload some of your training for the Shaw Classic
You're the man.
Pure training - great!
Maybe for next video, go over how to increase overhead press. Keep up the videos, they're all good.
From now on the word Zuper is
written with a big Z, always,!!!
Zuper work out Big Z! 👍
Big Z. He has to be the nicest strongman as well as the strongest ever!
Nice edit Big Z!
Great job
The king.
The greatest ever strongman
Спасибо!
Can’t wait to see you at the shaw classic good luck out there
Great Guy.........
I believe Luke Stoltman will be at the Shaw classic, he will be looking at winning the Max log, dont get injured, looking forward to your results, hopefully First place in the log and overall...
My takeaways from this video are:
Consistency & Timing. Absolute control and slow timing.
Maintaining Form.
Breathing is extremely disciplined.
Log lift record improved by Big Z so many times, it is amazing.
Great content Big Z. I've always wondered what bodybuilders do as they get older. Do you need to lose the mass to stay healthy?
Please make series on strongman workout you used to train with for strongman competitions
Just watch in awe!
How about a day off training, just kicking around the beautiful countryside around where you live as a video? That was an awesome workout. God bless.
Keep it up big Z all the way
Best of the bests
Careful warm up sets is the key to longevity
do a video on the types of food you dieted on and amounts you ate when you got really lean a while back
Nice guy. Strong 👍💪🏼🙏🙋🏻♂️
Thankyou today my chest day, thankyou i have new workout
I like the background music, it's like a yoga session, but with big Z. 😂
Big z cant wait to see you at the shaw classic.
Keeping it strong.
Will we get to see Sunday from "A week with Big Z"?
yay keep it up
Much love BIG Z
Simple and patient, so very simple its unique, no bull**, no fancy poses acting. Oldschool iron temple.
Maybe next time you can tell us more which juices you use and what your cycle is.
Legend
Hey big z!!
Me: 35KG Flys!! I´m scared
Jeff Cavalier: Me too.
Big Z is just too impressive
Ни дня без спорта! Это про тебя!
How do I get a full workout routine. What he dose for each muscle and each exercise for each musclr
The sheer thickness of this guy is insane. Thats 20+ years of lifting and eating. Insane.
Zydrunas and Brian are the greatest and best Strong Man of all Time.
You are verry strong. I hope that we'll meet again to do a training session together
Good trainin

Elieko bar Z? It looks like it, as I have 2 in my gym. Great bars!
Nice
I used to love to bench press bench since high school. Well in my late 40s I ripped my left pec clean off the bone!
Love you Big Z, You were nice enough to shake my hand and get a photo with me at Guangzhou airport in southern China
Hello Legend!
I would like to see a full day of eating ! :)
