That man could lift and hold 5,000 pounds with his back.

I can do that with my left nut

And he also resisted the strength of four draft work horses, holding 2 with each arm.

TFW Cyr died of obesity and overeating

Strongmen don't have a very long life span, due to the stress they put on their body.

I'm curious as to Grizzly's records now

Because I feel like he's far larger

One thing Cyr was famous for, is that he could pick up and hold platforms of upwards of 20 men.

Oh, and he officially lifted 500lb with a single finger.

I want to know how a man gets as strong as Cyr, is it genetics?

It has to be

If there's bigger men that are his inferior, it must be

You're talking about the Canadian dude, yea?

Size only partially matters, the density of the muscle plays a large role.

Yeah.

I still want to be as strong as Grizzly

Cyr might be an unreasonable goal lmao

That's why workers are stronger than body builders. Work muscle is denser and has a higher muscle efficiency

Cyr just casually lifted a 600 pound rock when he was a teenager, because it needed moving

Fuck

I wish I was basically atlas as a kid

Literal Hercules.

Imagine being able to lift and hold 5000 lb with your back.

Or lift 20 men.

Fuck cardio

You'll never have to run away or chase anyone down

Anything you hurl becomes a deadly weapon anyway

Pocket sand becomes literal sand blasting

All of Cyrs records still hold today.

When was he around? I can only find B&W photos

This is a picture of Cyr in business clothes

He died in like 1912

He had health complications from being around 400lb

Kyriakos is definitely larger

That's about 180kg, Grizzly is 200+

I reckon Grizzly dirty bulks and just never cuts

Imagine being an actual fucking turbohulk like these dudes

Pls 8ball am I uglt

🎱 dont sass me bitch
