Happy Valentine’s Day! This could be us but you don’t answer your DMs. We Launched New Team Martins Merch X @barbellapparel Today
NEW VIDEO OUT NOW ON YOUTUBE!
What an incredible show! One of the best run, smoothest, and most glorious shows I’ve ever been a part of! Everybody that competed was absolutely incredible. Huge congratulations to @mitchellhooper @kieliszkowskimateusz and @tomstoltmanofficial for killing this show. – for me on the other hand… what a couple of strange days. My body refused to cooperate. My heart wasn’t aligned with my head. . . It will not happen again. I will bring the best of myself to Worlds Strongest Man and beyond! 💪 Much love to all who came!

Tibet Stone Lifting is no joke at 17000 ft altitude
This is the best job I’ve ever had. There’s no doubt of that. Despite that, some days I dont want to clock in, but the march goes on anyways. The last show, @arnoldssports strongman classic definitely rocked me… and getting my headspace to be that of a warrior again is proving a worthy challenge. Yet, I will find that spark again to turn job into passion. It is my mission. – In the meantime, I’m increasing my frequency of physical therapy and working variants of motions that don’t aggravate this nasty sciatica, and breaking through fear to find my inner monster. —- This workout was a bit of an adjustment from my original plan, as I have to find what works for my body. First, I did mechanical dropsets with front squats and back squats down onto a box height where sciatica felt good. After that, partial range split squats, Conan’s wheel holds for time, various isolation accessories and finally some light sandbag carries for 30sec max distance/ 30sec rests for 10minutes.
In his first show back, @martinslicis has his sights set on one spot – the top of the podium. Martins Licis’s “Road to the Arnold” drops Monday. #ryourogue
While my sciatica heals, the more I can decompress my back, the better. Pull-ups have always, and hopefully will continue to be, a go to for my back training. Lately, I’ve been a bit slower with them due to some right shoulder pains, but the strength is still there 💪 time to get these moving smooth again!
Eccentric overload training! This still remains one of my favorite methods of acquitting the nervous system to heavy weights before peaking. Over the course of a month, I like to build up to a weight that’s 5-10% greater than my one rep max, and strive to lower it for 12-15seconds. Way to kill it, @njustin916 ! Your squats continue to improve!
During Hercules hold, heavy farmers or frame, my grip locks in! My favorite way to train it? Hangs! Many varieties of hangs. Closed grip, fat grip, finger holds, rolling handle holds, and more. After a heavy training session, the last thing my spine wants is more compression; so hanging instead of holding weight allows me to decompress, stabilize my shoulder, increase ROM and of course… work the grip!! But hey, if you don’t care about grip… check out these new @barbellapparel ADAPT JOGGERS! They’re stylish, have hidden pockets, are durable, come with a towel holder, tool clip point, and more going for them! Sleek style of joggers but some of the functions of cargo pants 😎🤌
Visiting @romarkweiss ‘s home country of the Philippines was a treat. We got to enjoy city and countryside alike as we explored their national martial art, arnis… Everywhere I go, I always bring a little Podium with me! Don’t miss out on their Summer Collection before it’s too late! 🙌
Join me this Sunday 3:30PM PST as I paint and talk about life! Ask questions about The Arnolds, Future Contests, & the Field of Strongman. For the longest time I’ve kept painting close to my heart, and havent shared too much of it… but lately I feel inspired to have some company on this journey! Any ideas on what you’d like to watch me to paint?
If you’re a fan of martial arts, don’t miss out on the incredible sport of Arnis! It is a national martial art of the Philippines that prioritizes mastery of hand held weapons with exceptional focus on stick fighting. From the institutions of Manila, to the quaint peace and beauty of Paete where traditional forms are passed down by masters, this sport takes on many forms. Connecting with the people and culture around it.. opens the door to the flow of life in this island nation. @romarkweiss and I have been to my home country of Latvia… too much time has gone by without visiting his! This puddle-jump here has been eye opening! – The last time I was here, I was competing in Worlds Strongest Man 2018. But this time, I was here to connect to my best friend’s roots and of course… film some more Strength Unknown! @reigntotalbodyfuel

🪐 🧠 I may not be competing at Worlds (to recover my sciatica) but the work don’t stop! Slow prep for the Rogue Invitational starts NOW – but nothing great can be done without balance, focus and energy 🙏 🐛 @reignbodyfuel
From Pakistan to Greece, Georgia, Philippines and Tibet China, this has been an epic adventure! Safe travels home @romarkweiss , hope you get some wonderful time in with family and get at least one good night of sleep in! And of course, everybody wish this man a Happy Birthday! … I’ll see you in Japan!
The 2019 World’s Strongest Man and PODIUM Elite Athlete is taking the stage @arnoldsports this weekend and prepared to put on a show 💪
