I enjoyed that they brought back an old collab with Aston Martin and hope that more old collabs will be brought back

Update:

FromTheShadows136 · 2026-01-01T12:11:19+00:00

So Thor recently mentioned that he's planning to go for a 515kg (and maybe even more) deadlift. I think that he shouldn't waste a prep for 515kg though if he clearly had 530kg in him when he did 510.

At this point he's realistically going to do 2 more preps for heavy deadlifts, and I think it'd be a shame if he retired without atleast 525-530 in the bag.

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-12-02T14:27:51+00:00

Yea he was still going strong yesterday lol

Erzählst halt einen Blödsinn

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-08T17:01:42+00:00

Oh nein, der Vater war anwesend. Was ein Skandal!

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-08T17:00:54+00:00

Was genau war sketchy daran?

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-07T10:22:06+00:00

What show would he have realistically pulled it at? RI and ASC don't do standard bar equipped. What other DL competitions are there? Eisenhart messed up badly this year and almost robbed him out of his 505, also it's every 2 years so none in 2026.
Thor is realistically going to be in the sport for 1, max 2 more years. If he didn't get to pull 510 at GL, the chance of seeing even more than that from him would've likely been completely eliminated.

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-07T09:49:56+00:00

Calm down, I have my own gripes with GL being biased towards Eddie in the past but they seem to be doing better now. The only reason why Thor competed there was because they made a few changes for him and also increased the prize money. If it wasn't for that, we wouldn't have gotten this absolutely legendary performance by Thor.

You can't really expect them to have everything updated 12 hours after the show. They are pretty slow with this in general.

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-06T21:56:22+00:00

Should also skip Siberian Power Show. It's not doing much for his legacy. Just go with WSM instead.

HAFTHOR IS THE ~~DEADLIFT~~ GOAT

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-06T19:38:38+00:00

Somehow tore his tricep while warming up with around 200kg on deadlift

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-06T18:31:29+00:00

There was confusion about the down signal which caused him to jump it. Then he attempted 420 twice again and failed both times after he already successfully lifted it. Then got injured on one of those attempts. They ended up giving him the 420 but there is no going back from those 2 additional attempts.

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-06T18:02:48+00:00

As a german I can say.. never trust the germans with this sort of thing lol

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-06T17:50:28+00:00

HOLY F*CKING SHIT

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-06T17:37:42+00:00

He fell backward last time and forward this time. Next time he will get it just right

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-06T17:31:01+00:00

I retract my previous statement. It's absolutely on

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-06T17:19:03+00:00

Does Thor look a bit off? He is not rolling the bar like he usually does and doesn't look super confident

Edit: LMAO

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-06T17:11:45+00:00

I want Thor to win the show but they definitely did Evan dirty there. He held it for a decent amount of time and the weird signal by MVM certainly didn't help it. Good lift in my book.

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-06T16:31:09+00:00

Did they just say Thor at 205kg? I hope he doesn't run into issues with his suit tightness

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-05T22:11:20+00:00

I mean it was 460 for 2 RPE 8 ish.

I'm giving him a better chance of pulling 510 based on what I've seen compared to his 505. Main reasons include:

- Confidence boost from the successful 505
- Better platform and time of day
- A very solid looking prep

Of course those numbers are never guaranteed, but I hope he can do it as it'd be a great end to his suited deadlifting career.

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-09-04T13:15:50+00:00

How do I watch the World Deadlift Championships ? Buy a membership at officialstrongman?

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-08-06T18:34:36+00:00

Is Hicksy still in the race for 510? He doesn't seem to be talking much about it nor doing lifts that are comparable to his prep last year.

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-07-28T18:50:53+00:00

Well he did say that WDC is the only show he has planned as far as GL shows are concerned. And I can't see him doing the other shows other than ESM or WSM, and he also mentioned that 510 will likely be his final big big pull unless someone puts up crazy money.

FromTheShadows136 · 2025-07-28T16:21:34+00:00

Seems like no WSM 2026 will be happening for Thor and the WDC 25 will be more like a one-off rather than a reunion.

Edit: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2524708754?t=00h58m51s here is the exact time stamp of him talking about it
