Yeah, a lot of the decisions on what goes on is between them and the tv companies in regards to athlete running order for events etc. People like Colin Bryce, Darren Sadler , the rest of the giants live team etc are just external contractors bought in by them to help out which I don't think a lot of people realise/know.

any mention of Colin means this should be posted, blame Brian Shaw for this last year

This could be interesting to many Sherdoggers thought I would share.

Same, I've been looking for some equipment near me no luck so far.

What puts it into context is the deadlift, squat and overhead dumbbell clean and press, I'm basically at around 50% of what the elite lift. Which is mad, because I'm not weak.

Whatever they do in kilos, I try to shoot for a similar number....in pounds.

Love those shirts.

While I think of it, a few weeks back I ordered the small Stoltman Strength Centre logo tshirt and got a signed shirt for free to my surprise thrown in when I opened the package when it was delivered.

Nice Stoltman's seem like great guys.

Deadlift is my best lift and I'm a little over half the world record the other lifts not quite as close. On one hand its humbling but I also realise I'm not a giant on all sorts of gear so don't expect to be anywhere close either

-Eddie thinks Thor’s cardio is shit even though he’s slimmed down and has demonstrated the ability to fight multiple rounds.

-Believes being bulky is conducive to effectively boxing.

-Calls the tall 17 year old novice living in his basement that he’s currently paying in lacto free milk and bro workouts a “full time boxer.”

Eddie has always been full of shit IMO. Maybe it's an unpopular sentiment on Sherdog, but Thor seems like a much more likeable dude. Yeah, he was salty after he lost in 2017, but shit happens. Eddie's been acting like a tit about it for years now. Plus, other strongmen have done the same shit. I remeber Brian Shaw challenging ref calls in the past as well. And other athletes have been sore losers in the past as well.
