Hafthor seemed not that happy with how the 440 moved but I'm gonna say it was still a great day. I've seen how well he came after bad days for example the day 340 Squat fell on top of him and when he failed the 410 Raw Deadlift during powerlifting prep. The next deload day is coming very soon and let's make that session look easy Hafthor. Hope the 8hr sleep and the 2 meals won't get compromised again. You got this Hafthor, Koma Svo!
@@antoniocenteno1483 Thor said in a recent upload that he's getting a new suit, and that this one will be a multiply, get him in one of those and there won't be enough plates in the world to hold him down.
Hey Nirmal, can you confirm whether Hafthor was wearing the actual suit he was going to get (from England was it?)? It seemed like he was wearing his old squat suit so this lift actually looked like a raw lift to me
@@GODOFHELLFIRE3 He already got it, but apparently wasn´t the right fit. It was livestreamed on twitch. Nirmal here know the details better than me but apparently he put on it for his last deload week but the tightness was far too crazy and he changued to his regular single ply. I don´t know if a new one was ordered or if Thor will use the one he has (multiply i mean). But given the comp is in about two months i´d said jumping a new suit maybe is not the best idea.
There re good days and bad days. You still got the 440 despite being not that much towards the good side based on what I saw and heard. Rooting for you King Hafthor!
Televised, streamed, whatever...I'll be watching this record pull. I hope the sponsors pay Thor well because he's worked his butt off, literally, to achieve this!
I would love to see Hafthor hit all the same PR's he did in the prep for 501 each one exactly five years later. The 440kg for three reps, the 480kg raw, the 455kg for two, to prove to everyone 'I did it before, and I can do it again.' Prep is looking REALLY good this far out, same with the thumbnail. 'A Portrait Of The Artist As A Strong Man' lol
Veins bursting out of his arms and not far off 200kg bw. Making 440kg look like nothing even on a bad day. Thor you will smash 505kg, you are such a dedicated monster 💪! So strong this early in the prep is a great thing, means you will be even stronger when it's time to pull 505.
Been following you since Larry first visited Iceland so that is like 5-6 years now? Next to Cbum my biggest inspiration to workout , especially these times when we eat a lot for xmas i need the motivation to move lol
Hey Thor Its great to see you locking into this challenge, wish you all the best, hope you stay healthy and safe. Cant wait to see you compete with Mitch Hooper for a new record. 💪
@@antoniocenteno1483 most eddie fans or those who want to see thor fail to keep eddie up like thor is the strongest deadlifter ever they have to own it
Speaking of accessories, Ive always been strong in the lockout but struggled for a while with of the floor as my weights went up, and man the halting and paused deficit deadlifts REALLY helped!
Thor is certainly capable of a big lift. Putting the 501kg aside, he has done some fairly big lifts in competition and made some of them look easy. This is not a given, but he will be there or there abouts completing a 505kg lift. People can say what they like but 501 in or out of competition was a massive lift that hasn't been replicated since. The only other individual capable of this is Mitchell Hooper. It would be incredible to see both of these deadlift monsters break the 501 barrier.
Neutral to the whole Eddie thing and breaking the record by 1KG is absolutely fine. But doing it in your home gym, friends & family weighing…yeah, it’s always going to overshadow the achievement. Anyway you’ll smash 505 Thor
With the right sponsors and right media time and maybe some influencers throwing it around, a bunch of participants and this could generate a lot of income.
It’s amazing to me that you’re body can survive lifting that much weight, just think about your ankle supporting your weight plus a thousand extra pounds
Great training session, always good when you have someone to train with About 1 kg increase per world record, it's still impressive, it's huge weight+1 kg and not everyone can do that. It's up to athletes like yourself to chase and hopefully succeed in those feats of strength and us as fans to be in ave of those accomplishments. Also wanted to mention when you or your friend mentioned Eddie's 1kg increase in wr, he also did 36? Kg increase which I know you guys know but felt weird that you didn't mention that in that context. Anyways, looking forward to future videos, let us know about the contract when possible
Dunno where Runar has been as of late but I would thoroughly enjoy videos of Thor, hIlmer and Runar just joking around and chatting shite. Hilarious trio 😅🤘
Need some insperation. I have been sick for a while, now back in the gym after almost two weeks, lost 20 kg in my dead lift, strangely mostly my left leg that cant press hard. Oh well I assume I can get back my lost strength in a few weeks.
Looking forward to you having the record "officially", cause all of these "it doesn't count people" are getting quite annoying. You'll be the current record holder, which no one can argue against. The first man to lift 500+ and the first man to lift 500+ multiple times
@tranquilator1109 it is its one hell of a lift the day Thor done it i could see 505kg he will lift 505 and pretty interesting that Hopper may try it also the way he talks can't wait to see it
Is it that you are actually getting stronger or is it that these initial strength gains are more down to dialing in technique and adaptations in neuro muscular efficiency and central nervous system performance
I think breaking records by 1kg is more sporting as it leaves the door open for the next person and prolongs the competition and excitement for the sport.
but it also makes WR "more achievable", in my opinion it is fine to break the WR by as big a margin as the one attempting it wants, at the end of the day you never know if that will be your last time to do it.
In my view Giants Live have set it at 505 because they know some of the strongman could do say 501 or 502 and take Eddie’s record so to help keep the record in Eddie’s hands they put it to a higher amount
and when he pulls 505 or 510 kg people will still hate and say its not a legit pull...to the haters...just post your lift can you pull atleast 1/4 or 1/2 of what Thor pulls
HIlmar speaking like a scholar... "my friend Hafthor is a true artist in the ways...in the manners of the deadlift...thank you" Great duo!
I would love to have a lifting partner like Hilmar! Such a funny and motivated person

Hope so too. First of all - not to force the prep, another injuries should not happen anymore.

Crush 510kg in 2025 and put it out of reach for a long time.
TBF 505 is already out of reach lol 510 would be legendary
Wasn't a legit lift unfortunately, needs to legit lift 501 before worrying about 505

Very very good Hafthor this is ART
I've said it once and I'll say it again. Hafthor is a bloody ARTIST when it comes to the deadlift.

Training every day in hopes of being as phenomenal as you are Hafthor! Go get that 505 KG goal!
Thumbnail is a work of art. Looks like you closing in on 200kg body weight. Cheers! :)

One guy making one plate look heavy, the other making 440kg look light. Wild
Winners thrive under pressure.
I hear you when you talk about lack of sleep and lifting performance. Still, you got 440 up with good form.
Those are some deep RDLs. I usually just go right past my knee cap and then back up.

hahahaha hafthor whoever made that thumbnail is a very funny one.
Thor got him off that bloodwork talk asap lol
having to break old world records in training to make a new world record is so crazy to me. 460 kg in two weeks is crazy but awesome

Can anyone explain to me why Thors stance is so wide? Does this not force him to do more of a snatch lift which means more ROM?
Honest question
