HOW TO:
It makes sense to train like a strongman for strength – but fat loss? Well, although pro strongmen tip the scales at alarming numbers (Iceland’s Hafthór Júlíus Björnsson, World’s Strongest Man 2018 and ‘The Mountain’ of Game of Thrones fame, weighs in at a monstrous 173kg), the way they train would help them carve Adonis-like physiques, if only their diets didn’t have to be so calorific to let them counterbalance the mammoth weights they need to shift.
