      I like the "how was that?" after 150 dumbbells in each hand, and Hafthor goes "I like it.". Almost as he was trying to befriend the weights and see if they're cool lmao.

    I hope you’re going to a doctor monthly checking that pec you injured and maybe getting X-rays. It wouldn’t hurt to know if you can go all out or be conservative with your training

      @@simmiesim321 I don’t think there’s anything wrong with some good advice, if someone had said this to him before the injury he might’ve thought twice about it and the injury wouldn’t have happened
