- The Linda WOD, also known as '3 Bars of Death', is one of the original CrossFit WODs. For time athletes must perform 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 reps of deadlift (1.5 body weight), bench press (body weight) and clean (0.75 body weight). Linda is a CrossFit benchmark WOD used to assess an athlete's progress over time.

Mad respect for not giving up and moving through the whole thing after you missed your goal time. That workout is brutal for people carrying half of your muscle mass.
Probably because the weight would be twice as heavy. A guy half his size might have better cardio but he’s going to have half the strength.
I have watched a lot of his videos and it amazes me how good of an athlete he is at anything he tries. Keep it up.
Great job on this workout! Just a heads up, the Linda standard for the DB bench at all the semi finals was each rep HAD to start at the top. I know this is a dumb rule but it ended up being important for certain athletes and it means that you one rep short every round in your version of Linda. Not sure that it would have mattered much just thought I would mention it. Next you should try the original version of Linda where the weights are determined by your body weight:
1.5 times body weight deadlift
Body weight barbell bench
3/4 body weight squat clean
Linda was a big succubus originally lol
I wonder how Mitch would go if it was proper Linda not semi final Linda
1.5 times body weight deadlift
Body weight barbell bench
3/4 body weight squat clean
I think the weight does not really matter in such an event when you are that strong.
thought the same thing
It absolutely does. Work done = force x distance. Increase the weight, you increase the force required and hence increase the work. The weight and work would increase by around 50%, which is far from negligible.
It would most likely take him hours. Assuming he's 320, The 160 pound dumbbell presses would prob be the hardest for him. 480 deadlift would prob be easy, not sure about the 240 clean.
@@e.c.9468 It definitely matters, especially when you're 320 lbs.
Respect. This workout is way way WAY worse in practice than on paper, as you found out 😂
Never mind the record. I want to see if I can do this in a day 😂
Not the typical strong man look and fitness standards great job 👏
Considering you’re not training for this, it was incredible. Your cardio volume for a strongman is immense. Hybrid athlete for sure. CF championship favors shorter people.
Yeah, light weights dor Mitch but this quickly becomes about cardio. I think 165 reps. I've been known to really gas on 12 reps of squats.
Yep, 165. For countdown sets, the total is n×(n+1)÷2 where n is what you start at. So for countdowns from 10, it's 10×11÷2=55. Three of those is 165.
When you look at him in size comparison to the people he competes against in strongman dudes really a freak of nature.
Sure thing, he on gears.
This was exceptionally impressive. Can't believe your cardio at your size!!
I love the grit and curiosity of this dude. His content is A1.
watching this video is insane! After each set you're like, "okay that's where he stops." And then he'll go and do another. Mitchell you have to have the highest cardio out of any WSM in the past decade.
Sir you are the best thing to happen in strongman since Big Z. You are so talented and intelligent. Please, consider giving us some tips on improving our Linda. How to improve our front rack. Etc. Why not try an obstacle race next? A mudder or the like? I think you could prob design an entertaining strongman obstacle race. You should do some Wim Hof with Stoltman, cause you are from colder home than me.
I appreciate you 💪
Not just strongman but the fitness world in general .
my vo2 max is now a vo3 max, and I'm just watchin
I'm going to steal that Vo3 max joke, with some modifications, of course
I love the collaboration. Please, more. Talk Dani and Bella into strong woman for Arnold classic
Dude, in all of your CrossFit videos, you handle them doubting you so well. We both know that if you wanted to be the best at CrossFit, you would be… kudos to you
Never seen a strongman with cardio like that. 👍😊
Huge respect for challenging yourself and also for controlled eccentrics wherever possible 💪🏽 that's one strong man 💪🏽💪🏽
Hooper, that was intense and you pushed through it... 👏👏👏🔥🔥
Countdowns are always brutal.
I thougt is was proper Linda as it said in title!?
Wiki says that Mitch weighs 320lbs/ 145kgs.
So that would be :
Deads with 480lbs/217,5kg
Bench with bodyweight
Squat cleans with 255lbs / 115kgs
I think he’s doing the weight that guy did in the comp
ya was laughing my ass for when I saw you speed on the first round. =) But hats of that was painfull to watch loved it Keep up fighting Sir. =)
i reckon the cleans would've been, at least slightly, less tiring if they had been actual cleans and not upright rows+front squats. that being said, this was still incredible to watch. also, my old rugby strength and conditioning coach is in the background of this video, that's so cool!
At his size this is just incredible!! And that strongmen have athletic conditioning and unbelievable strength
Thanks for sharing this! Enjoyed it, and you did great!
Love your effort and videos!!! 👊
Much respect...what a show! I lay my sword down and prepare for my fate....
Glad to see you doing cardio the CrossFit way. You will destroy the competition at EDM.
WSM. Darn autocorrect
Way to push through inspiration for us big guys
Well fought! Good to see you complete, not just stopping when you cross the record time.
👍💪🌞👍
Way to finish. Made those first sets look so easy!
Awesome Mitch!!!
What a freakin athlete!!!!!!!!!!!
Those cleans looked way more exhausting than they should have been.
Cardio is lagging... A must for WSM.
this feel like a out of bed routine for Mitch!
Great training for Rouge Dule
I thought he might actually do it two round in.
Mighty impressive to finish at all, let alone with that bolter flying start
Thiss is amazing. Nice one. I think you can go quicker. For the squat clean you caught it upright. You want to catch the bar as you make your way down. Like your jerks… get under the bar quicker. But amazing! It will take me days to do.
Was anybody else yelling at the screen telling Quadzilla to DO SKWATZ! ?
I've been out of the gym for three weeks on an injury. When I go back, I'm doing this. I'll be sure to post up my three hour time when I'm done, since I don't think I can rack that front skwat at .75bw (130lb). Gonna have to unload, high bar rack the bar, reload, do a rep and repeat. 🤣
Now do Annie it is a hero wod like the one you did but it is 10 down to 1 but with sit-ups and double unders or single unders
That was the longest ten minutes of my life
Longest 18 of mine 😅
It's cool to see how the muscles Mitch is using just turn red from the blood flowing through, can see it so clearly
The actual WOD is 1.5 bw dl = 472 Dl bw bench press 315 ( giving you a break) and a 243 squat clean. Not even close to a true Linda. But what do i know. I'm just a level 1 CrossFit instructor, but a huge fan of strongman. Mitch work on your cardio as this was a scale down workout.
I absolutely love Mitchell Hooper, but the second they said Colten Mertens, I knew there was no chance he was beating the time.
Very impressive
The fact you can turn around after a rest and do 900/400/500 of 1’s is insane. Love Eddie and Shaw, but I promise they couldn’t do this in under 20:00
Grim. The shear dogged determination is to be admired.
mad respect for this
as a weightlifter crossfit cleans are just disgusting to watch
That was absolute torture. GG
Incredible Mitch...like jesus can u work out omg ❤
LHBK!
With his Muscle mass his body will be screaming for Oxygen and lactic acid will start building up fast. This makes it twice as hard for him as he’s burning through Oxygen and Energy reserves really fast.
Respect 😊x
Can you do a video about perform enhancers and how prevalent steroid use is among strongmen. I feel like most people are pretty unsure about it’s role and would be cool to here your rake
He’s said before he doesn’t want to talk about it because it’s too personal
He would be the first one in all these years. Would cause all sorts of havoc from many angles. Someday maybe somebody will. For now, don't ruin it for the kids.
Whats your point.
I would assume all strongmen competing at the highest level in the sport are on gear. I’m sure some take more than others and use different compounds. I just don’t think anyone could be competitive at this level without performance enhancing drugs. Plus, there is no testing.
There all walking junkies
That my weeks workout done in under 20 minutes.
Brutal!
It’s just pure pain CrossFit
wasted too much energy on the negatives, i think she has the right idea
Strong man or not , CrossFit makes men cry
Drop the weights: Faster rep time + Less accumulative fatigue = *Much* better time.
Never said how many times you had to do the run??
Gentle giant gets proper tested ......😂 great vid Mitch !
good stuff, bravo to both of you
Other sports look easy when you are good at yours, then you try them and you go “Oh”
Tired watching….Impressive 💪🏻🔥
I'm only watching, and I need to lie down after this.
💪💪💪💪💪
💪💪
Great vid, you’re an amazing athlete!
*CAMERA MOVEMENT! 🤮Dont follow the rep with the camera.
90lb dbs? Mitch does not weigh 180lbs.
Im wondering why. Just. Why. What is the point of doing 55 reps of this. Its literally only relevant in xfit. Strongman carries over into real world.
Because in the real world nothing is done past 5 reps?
I'm a huge strongman fan and don't really watch crossfit, but that's a terrible take.
Tough at those weights.
why is the chick just dropping the weights after every lift
Crossfit bruhhh
What's happening in today's comp ??? What happened in the sandbag event that Mitch only came in 6th place ???
An Eddie Hall run in with a steel chair.
He dropped the sandbag. Was going to fast. Tom Stoltman dominated the whole event, so it didn't matter anyway.
What competition are you guys talking about ?
@@statmcmusic3696 The Giants Live event yesterday
...💥
Your so cute like your sweat❤
.
You could have done much better with proper squat cleans (I.e. a clean in which you catch the bar below parallel) The way you did it divides the movement plus forces you to go higher each time, which in turn consumes a lot of energy and time. Wonder why nobody told you. Anyways, impressive work regardless.
Is a technical lift that he has no experience with.
@ur-inannak9565 Yes, I know, that's why I said that I wonder why nobody told him better.
Your “squat clean” was actually “power clean + front squat”. A ton of wasted effort (and time) there. Proper technique would have shaved minutes off your result.
I think you have a good point. Mitch was a little over confident and I was watching her form on that piece and it seemed more efficient.
Mitchell, I think the one thing I've noticed you struggle with is getting too cocky. No doubt you're one of the best strength athletes in the world right now, but it seems you overestimate your ability more than others I've followed.

...😀
🦌. . .
Horses for courses.

…
But strongmen are fat and have no cardio.... 😮😅
Str8 up BEAST. Didn't drop the bars the easy way at ALL
easier to hold it and have it bounce up
I felt physically unwell watching you go through this lol. Mad respect, crossfit workouts are fucking brutal.
These workouts crush me. Go to sleep,right after.
CrossFit is what I do 6 days a week I love it so much I modify workouts but I do all those movements at lighter weight CrossFit is so much fun highly recommend trying it at least you can modify everything if you need the coach is your friend tell them what you can’t do and they will give you other ideas and will he,p you teach you
It's cause they are cardio not strenght so it becomes borring easily
.
.
For Mitch, it was definitely an endurance battle. Keep up the amazing work.
My god! I'm exhausted from just watching that. 😂
I also know the feeling of a workout with your CrossFit buddies that seems easier than the soul crushing experience it turns out to be. lol you did great Mitchell.
Those cleans at the end are seriously brutal. Most normal people would be out of breath after doing that many front squats in a row, let alone cleans.
MMA will take you to even deeper waters, exhaustion kills everyone
@_________________...._ same. I'd go home to eat and shower but fall asleep for 3hrs before I could do anything.
I agree. I've done both as well, and while I think "Crossfit training" is harder than "MMA training"; for sure "MMA Fighting" and even "MMA Sparring" are harder than "Crossfit Competing".
What surprised me the most was how much harder MMA is than grappling or striking alone! I thought MMA would be Striking + Grappling; but it's more like Striking x Grappling!
Well, he will probably have the cardio advantage over Eddie Hall unless Mitchell takes up smoking big-time
@@sensam6155 So true. In grappling atleast it's easier to "cheat" and rest when you're comfortable, knowing there won't be someone trying to take your head off everytime. lol
I've sparred SW with crossfit maniacs and after 5-10 minutes of rolling they'll be tired out of their minds because they're tense. Before that tho, usually is like fending off a gorilla.
You’re definitely from the best athletic of the worlds elite strongmen
I skipped to the end, when did he have time to jump in a pool?
Just needed a better strategy. Could tell you were in for a world of hurt when did first round in a minute. Well done for sticking through it, still great time just could have made life easier by not going out so hot at the start. Crazy as well that youre able to muscle clean into squats, thats what ended up taking all of your energy.
Muscle cleaning that bar. Respect. 😮💨💪
