Fella in the thumbnail was my coach for a couple of years. He walked away from that stone landing on his chest, nothing but some scrapes and bruises, and was at the afterparty later that night. Nothing broken. Big Loz did an interview with him during the pandemic, if you want the details straight from the man himself.
-
big z stood up and asked the stone if it was ok
-
Loving the tips, but I have to look away for most of them. 😢 "If you watch closely..." I DON'T! 😭
-
The videos are absolutely brutal, but Mitchell went beyond the basic "oh my god that was terrible" reactions and provide solid advice for people, which makes all the difference. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

No, Larry did not know what he was doing there. His opponent was in an arm break position, Adam runs over to tell him "pull, don't side press" and in just that moment Larry moves to the side (it's as if he was doing what Adam was telling the other guy to do). This is exactly why you wanna be super careful pulling beginners. I hope he learned from this.

Injuries is 100% my biggest fear. Strongman and competing is my whole life I can’t imagine not being able to do it for an extended period of time
-
That little research paper at the beginning forgot cheerleading and gymnastics lol. Lot of injuries in those two sports
-
Hmmmmm I've got a strong stomach but watching this on my lunch break is not a good idea lmao
-
Mitchell: shows a disturbing injury Also Mitchell: "if you look closely" NO Mitchell!! I'm not going to!!
-
Oh man, I felt every bit of that knee dislocation on the fridge carry!
-
Imagine the hamstring stretch on the last clip
-
seen many of this clips before, but I love hearing the breakdown of the injury and how to avoid said injuries while still performing the lift 👍
-
@mitchellhooperstrongman, that’s me in the deadlift section! I was watching your vids this week gearing up for my first strongman comp and there I was. Absolutely geeked over it! You are an inspiration and wealth of knowledge.
-
Wow, knees are way more flexible than I thought!
-
I'm literally sitting in the gym listening to this while lifting lol
-
I knew this would make me feel sick, but watched it anyway.
-
Watching this on my deload week
-
The text isn't readable (maybe it needs impact style font) but I only noticed after I stopped cringing from the pain. Props for including your own injury.

Had that bicep tear last summer. I'm a stickler for form inside the gym, so of course it happened elsewhere. I will note I was a bit dehydrated at the time which I think contributed to it.
