  2. Good for him. It's definitely really impressive, and he has worked really hard to achieve this. However, I think it shows the meaninglessness of the "pound for pound" thing. There are two reasons why bodyweight ratios don't mean much and the absolute strongest is the most impressive.
    1. Square-cube law.

    2. Range of motion.

    The significance of 1) is that as any structure in 3D space gets bigger in height, in volume, its volume grows exponentially while its weight only grows linearly, meaning you don't get as much of an advantage in terms of putting on mass as you might expect. If you could become proportionally identical to Lee Priest at 6'8, you'd collapse one way or another. The significance of 2) is that he doesn't need to produce as much force for as long as someone who has a higher range of motion. Let's say the ROM is halved. If the bar moves at the same velocity, he is no doubt producing as much force as the other guy, but he only has to keep it up for half as long. Being unable to keep up force production for long enough with heavy singles results in failed deadlifts that do make it off the ground, maybe up to the knees. If your lockout is at half the height of the ordinary ROM, and you're exactly as strong as the guy who failed his deadlift, you'll make yours, even though it's the same weight and you're identically strong. If the bar moves slower, that means he's producing fewer Newtons, less force, and just keeping it up for longer.

  3. What a beast. Certainly one of the strongest pound for pound lifter in the world today.
    But when will Mr. Strength universe give the proper recognition to Mr. Don Reinhoudt , one of the greatest superheavyweight powerlifter of all time on his channel.

  4. Still bigger ROM than sumo deadlifters and exorcism bench pressers.

  5. Why wud u want to put Sam into that stupid powerlifting scene, ego lifters, Sam is an amazing athlete and super strong, give him credit for what he's doing not associate him with stupidity to hurt himself, Muscle growth over breaking up joints all day, Well done Sam

  6. It’s pretty great, I mean this dude is strong for sure. And with all the crazy powerlifting rules, I’m sure he’d be just fine 🤣🤣🤣

  7. The pocket rocket 🚀🚀
    Love the analysis my friend and your comparisons.
    And honestly this guy still has a better range of motion than sumo pullers lol

  8. You can't deny the leverage/the distance he has to move. Period. There's a thing called square cube law in physics, which, when applied in human physique tells us the bigger an entity is, even with the same proportions and weight(not mass) of a smaller entity the bigger entity will have serious trouble/balance/strength issues.

    Not saying he's not impressive, but all of the dwarfs are biomechanically built for huge strength potential which is comparable to a lot of bigger guys at same weight, when trained properly. Also you can't deny the fact that he just can pack on a lot of muscle mass and density in a certain weight limit cause the structure and light weight of bones will allow that

  9. I mean ya its impressive but are we going to ignore the elephant in the room? Because of his size,his limbs are small making he range of motion for all these exercises barely anything. If you want a true representation of strength you need to take into account the physics of lifting,body weight+ weight you push is only part of the equation
