That is insane! I can’t believe how smooth those lifts were. Amazing.
I am off to the gym for deadlifts later today…this should motivate me!
Sick. Those squats are picture perfect. I can’t believe he’s 17…
This kid is unbelievable. He’ll easily do 1000kg total before he’s 20 ! Makes me proud to be norwegian.
58.5kg improvement on the world record, and he still had smooth and awesome lifts. I believe he might be onto something with his “Eat to failure” motto 
That kid is fucking gangsta strong.
He’s an absolute monster. Judging by the rack height he’s up over 6 foot, maybe by 2 or 3 inches.
If he sticks with the sport and stays injury free he’ll be the next Siders.
his thrid sqaut looked easier than the second… crazy whats the nuber of ply’s used?

1 ply of poly, it’s the IPF. And 2 metre knee wraps as opposed to the 2.5’s and 3’s used in the big US multiply feds.
Ho-lee crap.
He’ll go strongman, unfortunately.

He has competed in strongman and got 5th in norways strongest man this year. But he has stated that he will continue to do powerlifting and quit strongman for now because he doesn’t think it’s possible to truly do both sports at the same time. He has also stated that he might get back to strongman when he is older, but I don’t think he will quit powerlifting before he has shattered some more records both as a junior and senior.
Being a very humble man/boy he never states these goals in public, and he never gets carried away by his amazing talent and results. I hope he will avoid the worst injuries in the years to come. If he does that he can be the strongest man in the IPF ever.
His training is never really that heavy. He trains with high frequency and a huge workload, focusing on technique and explosive lifts. I think he will be able to make steady progress for many years to come, and progress will come easy if he avoid injuries. To to these weights almost without breaking a sweet is just insane!
This is why I claim to be of Viking descent
First time seeing the vids, he smoked every lift.
I’ve recently been working out with a guy from Norwegian decent.
He makes me feel week.
New video of CYC. He recently lifted at the JR WC and was able to do an easy 390 kg squat, a 260 kg bench and a 330 kg deadlift for a total of 980 kg. This is his first year as a junior lifter.
Honestly it looks like he could have done a 410 kg squat judging by how easy the 390 lift was.
So 10 months after setting WRs in all three lifts he put 180lbs on his total.
Unreal.
looks like he gained a little weight and some hair no? such a beast all of his attempts look conservative too
