Yesterday I posted the workout routine of Mariusz Pudzianowski. Today, I’m posting a link to a great video on my favorite strongman competitor of all time: Magnus Samuelsson.
In addition to being a Worlds Strongest Man winner, he is a down-home Swedish dairy farmer and a truly laid back and nice guy by all accounts. This video highlights some of that, and includes his at-home training and contest shots. It even includes his 8,500 calorie a day diet!!
Magnus is also a lifetime drug-free competitor, which as we all know is a rare commodity in any strength sport.
My ambition was to see how strong I could get, and I am totally clean, which proves that success is possible without drugs.
OK, here’s the video. Note: it’s long, about 40 minutes, so sit back with some protein and get inspired to workout – farm-boy style!
OH, and if you haven’t seen him on the Swedish version of “Let’s Dance” (seriously!) click here.
