@@DagonFF Well Idunno, with stone lifting, ankle mobility is definitely useful, cause you can drop slightly lower with more comfort and as weird as it may sound, extra comfort in a stone lift is gonna help you lift more when you're at their level.

@DagonFF 3 месяца назад

@@MedievalSolutions for sure some ankle mobility very useful. But the level of mobility of the Olympic lifter is far beyond what would be useful for stone lift I feel. The amount of work that Mitch would need to put to achieve that next level might harm the rest of his overall conditioning. Strongman is such an all around endeavor and I feel any extreme adaptation has a big trade-off

@joshuadiaz8986 3 месяца назад

He train split jerk and outmatches every competitor by a large margin on the Arnold log without leaving a single doubt about a shaky lockout. That’s a true champion and legend right here.

@harrisashraff 3 месяца назад

Really love how Mitch is really open minded to learn new things to improve his game and efficiency. Olympic lifters are the most efficient persons to the overhead a barbell and no matter whatever people complain you will be able to lift more weight when you jerk due to technical supremacy. If you look at the lighter weight strongman/woman you can observe how efficient people are at moving things especially how people jerk to put even logs overhead. The same thing will apply to heavier strongman for they aren't special snowflakes. The only thing they need to dedicate some time to improve their mobility. And people whining about how jerk is cheating are the ones who is not ready to put in the time to learn it. An investment in proper mobility and movement efficiency pays its dividends in the longer run regardless of the sport. Keep exploring and break the limits Mitch Hooper.

Mitch says he's not the strongest ...he just executes better than the rest. I agree, but I think Mitch is also mentally tougher than everyone else.

@Fendermanpaul 3 месяца назад

I switched to Olympic lifting about 10 years ago.....its a lonely sport in most gyms, a lot of funny looks and some people asking you questions, but, its infectious and great fun. Mobility is THE biggest challenge to it. Approximately 30% of training, if you're not mobile enough, should bevon that aspect. Mitch is smart learning this technique, most strongmen are way behind him.

@espenstoro 3 месяца назад

Geez, I kinda have to get every mobility exercise into my routine immediately, I suck. That was really nicely explained. Not just the how, but the why, I appreciate that. Side note, the one and only time I tried to front squat left me with bruises all over my shoulders when the bar kept rolling up and down, causing deep tissue massage in a bad way. Haven't done it since. Maybe, possibly, a decent front rack would help. 😅

@pauljara-lj7yz 3 месяца назад

Learning olympic lifts and training in that style consistently for a couple of years after only doing powerlifting was humbling but also had a great ROI for my strength and conditioning. I was forced to correct shortcomings in my mobility that I had a tendency to workaround when doing powerlifting training (e.g. front squatting properly vs arms-crossed, ATG high bar squatting vs shallow low bar squatting, etc.). But once I dealt with these shortcomings, I noticed a huge carryover in terms of strength and mind-muscle connection to anything non olympic lifts related including 2 of the 3 powerlifts (my benchpress did suffer).
