Nice, i didn't expect to see weight lifting exercices, i would have never thought that he practices this kind of exercices.

I guess it´s pure for assistance and fixing weak links...

However, his biceps doesn't show like a weak link

Hopefully he will last this time

Man, that was so cheesy, the commentary that is. The training looked cool enough!

wtf?! dude, do not be naive, all this top ring especialists do some weight lifting exercices like curls and bench press, this include our Gregor and the actual Lord of the Rings, Chen Yibing, as you can see here:

i agree, of course is some supplementary exercice to prevent some injury...

Coach Sommer's athletes also use some weights for assistance work.

Last weekend he competed in Cottbus.
