I’m always impressed by people making videos in foreign languages. He could have just subtitled, but the fact that he made the effort is a testament to him
Conner Broeker it seems like a lot of strongmen who English isn’t their first language really try their best and you can hear them get better every time they speak
I think his English is very good, the only issue is that I guess he doesn't have many occasions to do conversations in English, so it doesn't come natural to him and he's not very fluid. Easier to understand than some Scottish guy for me :D
As a non-English speaker (actually, I'm Lithuanian too), I can tell you that the most of my daily time I think in my native language, despite the fact I live in the UK. That's why I struggle to make my English fluent and flowing like a river. But, I can also understand Russian and speak moderately. In my and Žydrūnas' cases a foreign language is more like a way to communicate with others, rather than playing the language itself. Z does communicate with others very well indeed and he's one of a few strongmen who can equally chat with English-speaking strongmen (especially he's a good friend of Big Loz and Luke Stoltman) and those, who can't speak English well enough. English is Z's third language after Lithuanian and Russian.
Said that in a previous video. He looks much healthier and younger than the current guys. Big Z built his immense strength over a long period of time gradually. I doubt there will ever be another strongman at the top level for 20 plus years
There should be a Big Z Facts website, just like Chuck Norris'. Other fun fact: that Jeep Cherokee he was driving was a special order equipped with pedal power, no need for an engine
Seems like everything in Z's life is simple and calculated. His house is large but practical. His office is only decorated with his accomplishments. This guy is super regimented and that's why he is the greatest strongman to exist.
I have one of those tables. 5 minutes each day. I got 2 inches back in my height, from spinal decompression. I think every person on Earth should have one.
@Steven Criscione i think you can achieve a similar result by hanging from a pullup bar, although leg weight is probably less than upperbody weight but still a good stretch
What I love about Big Z is normal fitness RU-vidrs will quote 30 different scientific studies before making any claim but he doesn't need to because he's the strongest man who ever lived
the fitness industry makes a large amount of money with products and practices based on semi-scientific pseudo knowledge. Better listen to the advice of a living example of high performance than buying in on the assumptions of businessmen.
Shaw was never fond of Z. Think he was more hot headed and competitive back then, and it caused hostility in him towards Z. Maybe he's grown through that now
This is the difference between a wannabe and someone truly accomplished - Big Z doesn't try to show off for the camera or talk any bullshit. Just does his thing and keeps it low key. Great production value with the video and background music, and great house and surroundings. You can say he's blessed but you also know he's earned all of it with blood, sweat and tears. Love your work Big Z, keep it up!
He just started and it isn´t really better than Eddie´s or Thor´s. Big Z focuses on serious videos Thor and especially Eddie focus more on entertaining with his humour.
@@xXAlmdudlerXx Yeah Eddie is the master of comedy. 'Dehydrated' hahaha xdddd so funny. And Thor's channel is plain out boring. Except when he's lifting crazy weights, but that's over now so...
@@adamanderson9881 He is done with strongman. Just prepares for the dumb boxing match, which is absolutely ridiculous. Thor could've been the greatest strongman ever if he still kept improving as he has so far. What a shame.
When Big Z walks he stays still and the planet moves

Z, you're mankind's pride. Can't put in words how inspirational you are to all of us. Please come back once again for a 5th WSM title. We all know you have absolutely nothing to prove, but if you come back and win another WSM title (which we all know you absolutely can), this would be the stuff legends are made of. Gotta love Big Z!
Big Z: “every morning I drink liter of water with lemon” Every RU-vid Trainer: “the secret is water with lemon juice nothing else. Be sure to like and subscribe”
@Czterdziestysiódmy i did that day haha. Very motivated to be more flexible after trying some stretches and sheesh i can barely get my leg above 90degrees while keeping my leg straight. Insane.
Looking younger every year. Has a head full of hair. Damn, that's what I call an impresisve strongman! Btw having a house next to a lake and forest, that's a pretty cool life :)
His genetic resistance to the negative side effects of roids is incredible. And equally impressive is his body's longevity and ability to retain peak shape.
Oh Zydrunas we surely would love to see more of these... Im sure not only me but fans all over the world are happy to have you more and more active on RU-vid and making these videos Absolutely wonderful
Good English, i think my Lithuanian is better then his English, suprantu, reike ismoka gerai anglisky🤔, i think after your Strongman Carrier, you need go on a strong diet, loosing all that bodyfat and weight, get shredded to stay healthy in the Future. 😉👍
I'm glad the GOAT is putting out more content. Big Z seems a good man and it will be interesting to see how the great man spends his time. You are a legend Z and a special athlete
Over 300 titles won, x4 WSM x8 Arnolds and he is still one of the most modest men out there, comes across so chilled and he's still competing I thought he'd retired, go BIGZ.....
I'm amazed that Savickas only eats 3000 calories a day to maintain his weight. It also looks like he has done very well investing money in gyms. The one with the tennis courts looks like a luxury facility. Wow. Savickas is a smart businessman. He seems to live in a gated community where he has a beautiful spacious mansion on a lake and there also is a cute dog :) Meanwhile, the current world's strongest man, Licis, lives in Santa Monica, where they plunder and loot local businesses. Lithuania looks good, even if it was cloudy on Monday.
he doesn't maintain his weight at 3000 calories, he trims down a lot in the off season, still surprisingly low seeing as 2500 is recommended for an average male who does 30 minutes of moderate exercise a day, and i think when Terry Hollands moved over to Body Building he was still on around 5000 calories a day
nice video, looking forward to following through the rest of the week. As you mentioned stretching, it would be amazing if you could make a video regarding that topic. Thank you!
Very practical and down to earth man..also a humble man..without humility such strength is a difficult weight to carry on one's shoulders..wish you many active years ahead
So glad I stumbled upon your channel BIG Z!!!! Instantly subscribed brother. Let me just remind everyone that Big Z not only won the worlds strongest man 4 times, but he came 2nd 6 times! He is also the only modern competitor to have won every major strongman competition. Shows the difference in mentality. Thor lost to Eddie in 2017 and blamed everyone but himself. Big Z came 2nd 6 times and we never hear a word about it from the man. Total class, mad respect and one of the very very best strongmen to have ever lived.
Probably the greatest strongman ever as he has been entering the worlds strongest man competition every year since he was around 20 years old.A four time winner. A true dedicated champion.
I'd love to hear a year by year video serie which runs through clips from competition and your own thought then and now on each competition and competitors Lovely the videos not only is it interesting but makes me want to visit Lithuania.
