Inspiring performance by this guy at the Arnold Disabled Strongman Athlete Competition
Inspiring performance by all of the Adaptive Athletes at the Arnold Disabled Strongman Competition at the 2017 Arnold Classic in Columbus, Ohio last weekend. Here is a clip of just one of the many kick-ass athletes running through the 160/175/200lb (72.6/79.4/90.7kg) Atlas Stone medley.
This year was the first time that Adaptive Strongman Athletes were able to compete at the Arnold. Here are the champions of the Disabled Strongman Competition at the 2017 Arnold Classic in Columbus, Ohio.

If this post motivates 1 person to get up and work out, then I consider it a win. Go break a leg!

That made my back hurt
ricanvixen
Hell yea!
HitlersForeskin
He must have had to come up with a whole new balance
JackedAndPale
Under appreciated comment. Well done. I had to scroll back up to check his shoes.

I just saw this on Brian Alsruhe's channel. That is seriously impressive.
JackedAndPale
Hell yeah! Brian is the man. Humble guy and spectacular athlete. If ya don't know: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8Rt7E2JVz4fPmC8AhjDoaA

DIVERT ALL POWER TO LEFT ARM I'm sorry I'm going to hell but props to this guy for amazing strength
AnModCoinniollach
You won't go to hell for that, haha - pretty much how it works. Since you end up relying on the other limb so much more.

Here, take my strong hand.

Wow, so much respect.

First time ever and it didn't even end in a standing ovation!

Damn good stuff, sir.

Don't do that last part. Don't break a leg. It's really not good for your health.

At first I thought this was some dumb cross fit trend. Now I'm just really impressed and feel like a dick
WildScotsman6
Did he just do a one-legged squat with like fuckin 200lbs of stone on his other knee?
osubuckeye16
I work out at the same gym as that guy. He's ridiculous. Super nice guy too from what I can tell.
deadshotwolf
Holy shit I was there. If the clip went another 10sec longer you would have seen me! He was seriously impressive. Especially w/ the 1 handed

It would be a lot easier if he just used both arms.
skelitor120
Is it bad if that's exactly what I thought? I had to reread the post cus I couldn't identify how he was disabled.. still not sure.

I have 95 and 115 lbs atlas balls, and fully non-adaptive body, and yet still struggle more than this.
JackedAndPale
Keep up the practice! You'll get it! Having a good coach is key, but you can learn a lot online: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5-HIKaIXNw

One of those balls is the same weight as me....

That's about how much I weigh and that's all I'm going to say about that.

Oh, pass.

I got suite excited thinking I can probably lift that. Then realized I've been training regularly the last 20 years...
PatrikLilja
I shouldn't be excited that I PROBABLY can do that. I should know by now.
penguin002
hey if you haven't tried you don't know.

idontwantagoodusername
That's just suicidal
Nyquilforsleepytime

Doesn't it hurt rolling a giant ball over your balls.

Not when you got balls of steel!

But is it healthy?
ralphonso
I'd say the benefits of pushing yourself to do something like this outweigh the negatives
StonerCatJay
Let's just say he'll be even more disabled after that kills his back.
Averagesize
Well, obviously not. I mean, look at the guy.
Nigbac
In the sense that every movement he does it uneven loading of the spine, no. But in the sense of activity, muscle use, mental health (1/2)
Nigbac
2/2 benefits, circulatory and pulmonary benefits, yes. So it's a mixed bag.
