In the unforgiving realm of strongman competitions, the pursuit of strength often takes center stage. But a strong heart and healthy body are the foundation upon which unparalleled strength is built.
Today, we explore why being a formidable force in the world of strongman isn't just about lifting heavier; it's about mastering the delicate harmony between strength, endurance, and overall well-being.
Welcome to Episode 6 of "No Stone Unturned," where we unravel the essential yet often overlooked aspect of a strongman's journey-monitoring health and embracing a holistic approach to fitness. We're breaking stereotypes, shattering preconceived notions, and paving the way for the next era in strongman athleticism.
At the end of each video, I'm going to provide a score based on three crucial aspects: Personal Enjoyment, The Scientific Evidence, and The Practicality for the Average Athlete. You'll be able to compare it to the other dimensions of this series.
I hope you enjoy and please share your thoughts in the comments.

Last November I went to the doctor for the first time in years. I knew I was obese but found out I'm starting to get high blood pressure. I've had uncles and cousins having heart attacks in their 30s, so that was a big wake up call. Been lifting or walking every day since December. So far I'm down 10lb and feeling way more energy and fewer aches and pains. This helps keep me motivated! LHBK 💪

@scoobtoober2975 3 месяца назад

Please get that in check. But more so, do you research on vascular problems Lots of youtube doctors to discuss various area. Mine was high for 15 years. I'm 40 now. It took 4 months of changes to get it in check. It was 140-150 upper and 90's for that time. Now it's 115-120s upper and 75-80 lower. I'm not totaly sure on one thing that is the cure. But it's everything. Try exercising with nasal breathing. No mouthwash, no alcohol, no sugar. No fluoride. Give it one month. Slow breathing. Forcing/focusing on the whole diaphragm to be an active part of your breath. Look Stig Severinsen for some breath work. Or do you own. Slow in 4 sec, hold for 4, out for 4 seconds. Box breath. or other variations. You could monitor heart rate varibility to see if it improves with various things. But heart attacks are complex and maybe one thing vs many others. Get the darn seed oils out of your diet for life. That is definitely a major reason for vascular problems. Just that alone can effect things. They are highly inflammatory. It can reduce clotting factors. Or ramp them up. Again it's not one reason for one result. Be well. Cold showers are a sure way to check for circulation problems.

@jmodified 3 месяца назад

Don't pay any attention to the BP at a doctor's office (unless it's really high), get a blood pressure monitor and measure it yourself regularly. Even people who don't feel stressed or nervous at a doctor's office may have BP 10 or 15 points higher there. If you are stressed, because of "doctor anxiety" and/or because you're sick or in pain, it could be 40/25 higher. Also, they often measure it right after you sit down and are sitting in an uncomfortable position, which is completely wrong. And it can vary for no apparent reason at a particular time on a particular day. My morning pressure averages 115/75, but every now and then it's as high as 135/85, with no apparent change in diet, sleep, stress, etc. I've measured as high as 160/100 in a doctor's office after being violently sick for a day, even though I was feeling mostly better by the time I went in. And the same goes for blood sugar. Fasted blood sugar can vary a lot, but some doctors will diagnose you from one reading. Get a glucose monitor and measure it every morning for a few weeks to get a real idea (and I'd suggest getting some glucose pills and doing your own glucose tolerance test at least once). If it's all good, you can test once every few months or something. If it's not, you can modify your diet and test regularly.

As a healthy, active 30 year old, I ended up in the hospital for 3 weeks with congestive heart failure and stroke. Turns out a virus had damaged my heart a year prior, and going untreated caused everything to get worse. One BP check during that year would have flagged something was wrong and avoided what followed. No matter how fit you are, monitor your health.

@WillTrott94 3 месяца назад

Mitch, I love this series and how informative it is, as well as the entertainment aspect of it. I was always fairly "skinny" throughout college and my early 20's. I ran track, played football, and then joined the military where my body weight was somewhat regulated. I was always fairly "strong" for my bodyweight/my standards, but when I got out of the military I decided to put on weight for a Strongman competition. I am only 5' 9", so my usual weight of 175-180 lbs (around 80 kg) still put me in the "overweight" category according to my BMI. I jumped up to 220 lbs (just under 100 kg) for the competition, and while my strength went up significantly according to my PRs, my athleticism suffered significantly and my BMI indicated that I was now obese. I definitely felt heavier and less healthy at the heavier weight, but I would not say I was obese, but that's what my BMI indicated. I came to the Arnold in Columbus this year for the Strongman Classic and re-discovered my love for Strongman, so I am training for another competition that is happening this summer, but I am now back down to my original weight around 177 lbs (80 kg), and I am planning to compete in the lightweight division. My overall strength is not nearly what it was when I was 220 lbs, but I can feel a HUGE difference when it comes to the athleticism in my movements (I started using the split jerk technique for Axle overhead and log overhead after seeing your videos, it feels GREAT). Sorry for the long message/story, I just love what you are doing for the sport of strongman right now. You are dominating in every competition you compete in, you are kind and responsive to your fans, you are doing the real-life new dad thing while remaining on top of the sport of strongman, and you are helping the normal people (like me) learn how to take care of our bodies while still being able to push them and compete at the highest level possible. I know you have only been in strongman for a few years now, but you are near the top of the all-time totem pole because of the person that you are. Thanks for all that you do for the sport and for the fans of strongman, you inspire us all to LHBK every day.

@UbuPluto 3 месяца назад

I think the definition of exercising at a level 7-8 out of 10 as a max as moderate is aggressive. Zone 2 training which is by most considered moderate is defined as exercising hard enough that you can carry on a conversation but just barely. I would think this is more like a 5-6 out of 10 than a 7-8. I really appreciate the perspective that this series presents

@Nolan-55 3 месяца назад

Not saying this is the case for Hooper or anyone else in particular. They all have their personal reasons. But often times guys simply can't talk about it for various reasons. Sponsors, work, and promoters can all be a reason why. Also, here in the states for example, many "steroids" are flat out illegal and it can be factored into visa applications of people coming here to compete. There's more reasons to, some just don't want to discuss at all. Even in BB where it is becoming more open, most still wait until they retire to talk about it. I do think gear being taboo is unfortunate and does more harm than good. But it is what it is.

@dantethunderstone2118 3 месяца назад

@@Nolan-55in strongman it’s more difficult to talk about ped usage. Even if the athlete has no personal qualms with taking about it and their sponsors are ok with them talking about it they can’t if they want to compete at wsm Wsm says that peds are strictly forbidden and that anyone caught with illegal substances in their system when drug tested will be disqualified (so they do recreational drug tests instead of performance enhancing drug tests in order to not have to disqualify everyone) even someone like Mitch who has plenty of popularity (especially Mitch himself because of the amount of haters he has who don’t know the sport well enough to know everyone is on gear but will attribute his success solely to him being on gear and it being an unfair advantage) couldn’t talk about it because unless every other top strongman started to talk about it as well, wsm would brush them under a rug

@dantethunderstone2118 3 месяца назад

@@sfrrob at the very least people might hear what the worlds strongest me are running and then question if they’re taking too much. For years, when people wanted to find out what to take for their first cycle they’d either go to a forum online or to the biggest guy in their gym and the answer was usually “500 test minimum or you’re wasting your time”. By their 3rd cycle they’d be pinning over a gram a week. Now there’s pro bodybuilders coming out saying the most the ever ran was 700 test and that beginner cycles should be like a couple hundred test per week. John haack is completely open about what he takes as the best powerlifter in the world and it’s only like 300 test and some anadrol or anavar which is less than the minimum beginner cycle the internet say Tldr; the pros numbers will definitely be lower than randos on the internet and it’ll maybe make people rethink how much they actually need to take

I feel like an aspect of the critiques against BMI that you did not address is it is calibrated on mainly white/European people which is a small percentage of the world population. It is possible that certain ethnicities have naturally higher muscle mass and thus it is not as accurate. On top of this, there are a lot of confounding variables when it comes to high bmi (strongly associated with poverty in US and living in a food desert) so whether this is the main causal factor of adverse health outcomes might not be as clear cut as this video makes it seem. Social justice acknowledges the difficulties of the strategies you mention and is not antithetical to science (ex. not everyone lives in walkable neighborhoods)

@joshuacallis3136 3 месяца назад

I agree, misconception on doing cardio, decreased strength. I’m not amazingly strong but happy with my progress. I was 100kg and eating a good amount and putting on get to get my lifts up went from 90kg bench to 135kg bench, 70kg overhead press to 100kg and 160kg deadlift to 188 etc. over 3 months, but put on over 10lb! Felt slow, so started losing weight and dieting, down to 91kg and guess what! I’m bloody stronger, leaner etc all I did was keep to the same lifting and adding in cardio before etc. was worried it would make my progress worse, but it didn’t. Mitchel makes a really good point, cardio doesn’t make us less strong, I started the weight loss journey because of him etc, before Mitchell’s points I was always under the impression size meant strength (obviously does), alot more food etc but at my level, it doesn’t seem to make much difference

I'd be interested to see how going through these efforts changed the perceptions you had going in. Clearly, you were never a fan of hot/cold. And you have always said strongman (and most peak athletic effort) isn't healthy, though focusing on health is important for most people. But it'd be cool to see what changed your mind the most, and why. Awesome series, thanks for sharing!

You may be interested in what happened with Matt Wenning recently. Reach out to Matt for the best details but from what I understand his BP was only slightly elevated during his competition years... however years of maximal efforts (1000 pound squats etc) caused short periods of extreme BP that built up enough damage to his kidneys to become an issue now. I am sure your BP was pretty crazy when you were running around with a 1000 pound yoke on you. So probably something that would be good to keep an eye on. Matt went to Mexico for some stem cell treatments so it will be interesting to see if that reverses the damage.

@hefudgedafrog 3 месяца назад

Genuinely, when I saw monitoring "health" I was assuming you'd have some more useful testing - things like blood pressure, heart rate are here but in addition I was expecting more blood work, V02 max and fitness benchmarking. Things like waist circumference ratio to height and BMI are intentionally generic and really not at all what I would find to be useful for you, specifically. I get at the end you're making a point about body positivity and how you can't really get around the fact that health is tied to weight to a large extent, but I just feel like this missed the mark a bit in terms of what health monitoring is actually useful for gym-goers and what the audience was probably looking for.

@thomascondon9447 3 месяца назад

I don't know if I can agree on the take that we should accept BMI as a reasonable measure of health. I have no education in health or fitness, so take this for what it is. Using myself as an example, I don't know that I would consider myself to have a ton of muscle, more than average probably, but not a lot by the standards of people who lift weights a few days a week. I am 6'5", and for me to have a healthy BMI, the maximum I could weigh is 210 pounds. I've been down to 250 before, and while I was not skinny by any measure, I don't think I could have lost too much more weight. I feel like if I went down to 230 I would have been pretty thin. I have a hard time believing I could be healthy at 210 pounds, an thats the supposed maximum for a healthy weight for a 6'5" person. 155 pounds is the minimum for a "healthy" weight, and I honestly do not think I could survive to get to that point. The other problem I see is the opposite problem for women. According to BMI, 5'5" at 150 pounds is considered a healthy weight, but most women at that weight would be visibly overweight unless she has built more than average muscle. A man at 5'5" and 150 pound will usually look just fine as is. I realize looks aren't everything, but I see so many problems with BMI, I just can't see how it's worth anything.

I respect what Mitch is saying about BMI being important...but it's been a sensitive subject for me. In my best cardiovascular shape...I was a young stud 22 year old Marine at 5-11 196lbs.(about 10-12% body fat) and I could do 37 pull ups and 140 push ups(no rest). But as i got older I did TRT at 40 and I buffed up to 265lbs(about 18% body fat) and could bench my weight 36 times. I felt I was in great shape! But my Dr. checked out my BMI and told me I was "grossly obese" and wanted me to drop down to 190lbs. I was 265bs of muscle and couldn't pinch an inch of fat on my belly. I was insulted and also confused that an intelligent Dr could be so ignorant. I told my Dr I worked really hard for my muscle and didn't think losing 75lbs was realistic or even something I wanted. He told me he was my height and 190. But he was a skinny pencil necked bicyclist. I was built like a linebacker in the NFL. So I never respected BMI after that. My Dr told me not to be insulted by the "obese" comment...because it was a "clinical" medical term/definition. But nobody wants to be called obese when they work so hard at building the muscle they have. Now that I'm older(54) I'm a buff and slightly chubby at 235. My goal is to be more defined at about 220-225. 190-200 would be easy if I just stopped lifting weights. F that!

@dylanthompson8338 3 месяца назад

I think the best way to think of BMI or the terms obese/overweight in general to avoid unintentional insult is that they don't always mean you're fat. They can and oftentimes do but like Mitchell said in the video it simply means your making your body deal with more weight than is generally considered healthy. Like what was also said in the video, you can even mitigate and work on those risk factors like strengthening your heart but it is, in general, outside the norm of healthy.

@mitchellhooperstrongman 3 месяца назад

It is unhealthy to have a high body weight. It is unhealthy to have low muscle mass. It is unhealthy to have high body fat. No single one of these is a diagnosis, and your doctor should do a better job of communicating that BMI alone is not appropriate, but it is also inappropriate to be totally ignored

@Parker_Miller_M.S. 3 месяца назад

There is no confusion around cholesterol, specifically LDL and Apo-B cholesterol particle levels in the blood, and health. The higher one's blood cholesterol the more likely they are to suffer heart disease related events and even death. This is irrefutable based on randomized controlled trials and genetic mendelian randomization studies. The best ways to reduce cholesterol in those without genetic lipid disorders like familial hypercholesterolemia is to eat a diet with plenty of fiber (US dietary guidelines suggested 25g/d for adult women and 38g/day for adult men, but there is likely more benefit to be had with more fiber), a diet low in saturated fat from red and processed meat, butter, ghee, lard, coconut oil, or other palm/tropical oils, and instead replace that saturated fat with polyunsaturated fat followed by monounsaturated fat and/or whole grain fibrous carbohydrates. Losing additional body fat and reducing BMI also has a strong impact on blood lipids. Some may maximize their benefits from lifestyle and need medication like statins, or ezetamibe, or even a PCSK9 inhibitor if levels are severe enough in order to reduce lifetime risk. These are prescription only for those unfamiliar, also none of what I'm saying is medical advice, I am not a doctor. The evidence is clear that the more cholesterol you have in your blood, the higher your risk for lifetime heart disease events is (Ference et al. 2017, Borén et al 2020 - both are position/consensus statement papers by the European atherosclerosis society). Blood cholesterol also has virtually no impact on one's tissue levels of cholesterol, as every cell in the human body can create cholesterol in the exact amounts that are needed to function. Having more in the blood does not increase health in any meaningful or positive metric. Anyone who claims otherwise is likely to be misinformed. The 2019 SACN report also discusses the evidence of saturated fat and it's substitution by whole grains, mono and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Replacement of saturated fat with plant unsaturated fats leads to lower blood lipids and lower risk of heart disease events.

@colonelroosevelt8789 3 месяца назад

This is absolutely correct. I hope Mitch learns more about this as there are a few grossly over simplified lines pushed that confuse this point. Lowering LDL cholesterol is one of the few things we do as doctors that actually saves lives though I agree lifestyle changes for primary prevention is king. And you’re right familial hypercholesterolemia is scary when you occasionally a find young visibly fit e.g. 6 pack and mid 20s with LDL levels of 200
