Interesting. But I am rather able to do a 30s planche then a fatty deadlifting a 5plate.

Tbf those elite strongman fatties aren't deadlifting 5 plates, they're lifting 9 or more plates.
>>36584638
Yes it is.
>>36584669
Sure that's amazing but imo not worth the 5k-10k of calories you have to shovel down your throat everyday.
>>36584733
i think its closer to 15-20k
>>36584756
Depends on your weight division alan thrall says he ate around 10k in his bulking phase. Oberst eats around 15k on an average day.
>>36584733
I agree, I wouldn't want to be them, but their feats are admirable nonetheless.
Besides, getting to the highest level of strongman is probably impossible unless you're a genuine genetic freak. I don't think anyone on /fit/ has that kind of potential.
>>36585040
There's one or two freaks around here who could potentially make it to high national/low WSM level. There's one fat fuck in /plg/ who's chasing a mid 7s deadlift as a tested junior.
Bloody rare though.

Robert Obese is an extreme example though, he's very fat for a strongman at that level. I think his frame is just not built to carry that level of size so he has to overeat that much even with chemical assistance etc.
Look at people like Z, Hall, Tel etc and they carry that level of bodyweight far better than Oberst does.
>>36585142
Z's about as fat as Oberst is, just weirdly distributed. Also unlike most of the other guys Z sheds weight in the offseason.
>>36585072
Wank, Bodorio and Norsie are all very strong. Wank IMO has by far the best strongman potential due to his large frame. He could probably get far, but purely speculating I think that Björnsson, Shaw, Savickas and Hall are on a completely different level.

Pretty sure this is the same beta cuckold reporting here that wrote an article about how jealous he was that his high school friends got fit

Z is a lot less flabby than Oberst.
