  1. They need to stop people going into a deep squat in the Felix Hold. It takes too much weight of the hands by standing the columns more upright.

  2. Now Terry Hollands has retired from full comps, this would be a great show for him to participate in this year

  3. Fantastic watch. A great start to a rivalry I hope continues to push human achievements. Oh, big up the Roberts.

  4. This comment I expect to be erased, someone just has to say it. Isn't that suspicious that Dixson attempted the men's weight and got further than top 5 world's strongest men like Martins, Faires and Bobby? 200 kg per hand for her, and she wins over grip superstars like Martins? Very strange. Specially in those days of female empowerement being shoved up your noses.
    .
    If you've ever trained grip on farmers, it's such a small muscle group and so dependent on hand size (more mass against the handle generates friction), that if you go from 100 to 110 kg per hand it already becomes a different ball game. How a woman is holding 200kg per hand and defeating Martins? Again, strange.

  5. Uh… it's pretty clearly Scandinavia. The USA isn't really a Nation. It's the orts and leavings of the real Nations.

  6. What a bs juding at the hammer hold, Hall should have been stopped at 53 seconds.

  7. Eddie should have been stopped halfway through his hammer hold. His arms dropped significantly more often than Felix's, but Felix got warnings and Eddie didn't.

  8. Would have been cool to see oberst captain the USA just for the shit talking with Eddie but still amazing

  9. really well done to the brits, sadly my country of germany is not relevant internationally, though we have some guys i consider strong. thanks to the internet i get to enjoy all the content anyway.

  10. I'd like to see the following events:

    Squat for reps
    Bag / barrell over bar
    Stone to shoulder for reps
    Tyre flip race
    Yoke into log

    Teams:

    UK:

    Paul Smith
    Gavin Bilton
    Luke Richardson
    Shane Flowers
    Andrea Thompson
    Lucy Underdown
    Rebecca Roberts
    Rhiannon Lovelace

    US:

    Evan Singleton
    Wesley Clayborn
    Spencer Remick
    Gabriel Peña
    Ines Carrasquillo
    Nadia Stowers
    Gabi Dixson
    Hannah Linzay

    Also think it would be pretty cool to get other countries involved. Maybe not in the same show but you could have countries like Canada representing or Iceland as both countries have great male and female representation.

    Also would be cool to give the show even more layers by having a master on each team such as Nick Best and Mark Felix to make it even more inclusive.

    FInally, it might be nice to include athletes that do not get picked for most shows so they can show what they can do. Thought last years show was a triumph and is really something to build on. Well done to the Giants Live team!
