To prepare as best as possible, the Icelandic man defending his championship title performed an extremely intense circuit. In the video posted on his Instagram account, we see Thor Bjornsson start with a log press at about 170 kilos, followed by three "clean and jerks" - if we can call them that - one with a barbell, one with a dumbbell and one last one with an even bigger dumbbell. All in just 50 seconds.
We'll spare you the translation of that word The Mountain utters at the end, but it says a lot about his motivation to become the strongest man in the world for the second time.
(We advise you to put the sound on to hear the beautiful metallic noise of the dropped weights.)
