What a vibrant and eye opening festival this was! Here, the first athlete, Junaid, performs a unique stone lifting style called “Bugdar,” swinging a 153kg (336lb) stone to his shoulder with both hands. The second athlete, Umair Hassan, impressively hoists a 200kg (440lb) stone to his shoulder, despite weighing only 80 kg. Pakistan boasts incredible strength. PAKISTAN!
This was one of the happiest mornings, that I’ll carry with me for life. As a birthday gift and a thank you for all he’s done, I made a painting for @schwarzenegger , and he told me he loved it! 🙌 I’m speechless. Rarely, do I share my artwork with the public, but this was worth it. Thank you for the pump session, bike ride, and a wonderful breakfast and conversation!

With great beards, come great ideas @thebeardstruggle … Did I do this right @gameofharmony
Some days just grind… but weight goes 🤪 935lbs 425kg … other days… weight also grinds. It’s that time of prep. @reignbodyfuel @sbdapparel @barbellapparel @321podium @wreckitgym ked

YES! Body is feeling better and better! 715lbs (325kg) deadlift moving smooth, and with plenty left in the tank. Slowly but surely, I will get my ol’ strength back, and then surpass it 👊😈 @sbdapparel #SBDApparel #SBDUSA
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY! – I’m going to use any and all excuses now to rock this outfit, get used to it! 🇺🇸 🦅 🦖 @reignbodyfuel #reigntotalbodyfuel
Summertime working on stabilization. I should do this more often 🤩 @tyrsport
5 reps and feeling good! It takes a lot of @reignbodyfuel to get through a day like this…. 100 sit-ups, 100 push-ups, 100 squats, 10km run, and 1.5 hours of Jiu Jitsu before hitting leg day. Okay, maybe not all of that, but the Jiu Jitsu part with @torse_house is accurate 😆 and I did have a bit of Reign… #squats
Mini trip to Latvia always refuels my spirit! 405lb (185kg) squats with pauses, then regular reps to finish out. Always a good time training with @aivars.smaukstelis ! Feeling better every week. Can’t wait to go heavy again! 👊 In due time…
#throwbackthursday to @martinslicis taking the Stone To Shoulder event win in dramatic fashion and securing the title of 2022 Arnold Strongman Classic Champion! #arnoldstrongmanclassic #arnoldclassic #asf #arnoldsportsfestival #arnoldsports #strongman
Hope you guys had an awesome 4th! Recently, I became a proud USA 🇺🇸 Citizen and was lucky enough to receive a note from the man, @schwarzenegger himself! He told me he celebrated by dressing in red white and blue and topped it off with a stoggie. It wasn’t easy to get an outfit that fit, but alas, perfection take time 👌 Came just before America’s birthday. Thank you for always being a major inspiration Arnold! And thank you for not letting me take it easy on celebrating! @tyrsport … @xion.bike

It’s time to turn dreams into goals #strengthunknown #scotland
Don’t have the shoulder mobility I used to, and getting that range back fully may be impossible. However, with adapting and changing my technique, bigger and bigger weights are still going up. Much is possible! As my brother for life @romarkweiss would always say “Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!” … For those of you that don’t know, Romark was a submarine captain in the 1800s, and won some key determining battles for our country. His original quote 🙌

This is my second time in Japan, and I’m loving it even more than the first time; which I didn’t even know was possible. While filming for Strength Unknown, we got the full baddass @muscle.girls666 experience and then after showed them a little of our world. Lifting heavy rocks. Sadly, these rocks were a biiiiit too heavy. I’m going to need to explore a bit and find some more reasonable entry level “chikara ishi” (power stones) for people to get their hands on for practice. @reignbodyfuel
Its hammer time baby! Off to Scotland with @romarkweiss to shoot our next episode of Strength Unknown! @tyrsport #StrengthUnknown
