Magnus Samuelssen was in The Last Kingdom.

First dude to ever close the #4 Captains of Crush grippers with both hands.

The craziest Samuelson moment too me was when he broke Nathan Jones (megaman) arm during arm wrestling. He’s just holding his position then pop Jones breaks his own arm. Always figured his brother Torbjörn who also compted at wsm would do better. They were of equal size.

Still a Monster of a Human I see

First event is farmers walk for distance and a squat, it's going to be interesting to see how this plays out. Reckon Loz is right about it benefiting the old heads.

No gap between heats and finals now so conditioning is going to be even more important.

I think Samuelson was the European arm wrestling champ at the time too.

Licis is training with Big Z while also covering the event.

Damn Shaw’ bracket is tough. Would like to see Holland’s win it but he’s getting a little long in the tooth.

Jerry Pritchard , Terry Hollands and JF Caron all looked dominant in their groups as fhe Leaders. Impressed with Hollands since Shaw and Luke Stoltman are also in that Group.

Hollands, Shaw and Stoltman is a tough group. Hollands looked like he's come for a fight this year!

Hollands looked great. The way they had to do the Farmers walk was pretty taxing on the back and Grip , you pretty much had to put it down and pick it up every 10m so it was more about Muscular Endurance. Licis would have been a Monster here had he not had that Car Hit him earlier in the year.



Side Note it always surprises how horrible Oberst is at the Deadlift, he has trained with Shaw and Hall , you'd think he would have ok picked up good pointers from them.

I thought it would favour the older guys, but that wasn't entirely true!

Oberst said on Rogan he is ideologically against deadlifts, probably explains his shit deadlift!

I remember that , that was a stupid part of that interview. Guy is a charismatic moron.

His slogan is strong and pretty, I'm starting to wonder.. I like the guy though, he's entertaining. He brings Shaw out of himself a little. Don't know if he's going to be a threat going forwards though. He should become a wrestler imo.
