This of course has nothing to do with strength and conditioning but making a film, even a short one is no easy task!
Anyway, to get back into the swing of things check out the video below. It is called Själen är större än världen (The Soul Is Greater Than the World) and is an amazing documentary about the obsessive Björn Rickard “Ricky” Bruch.
Ricky was an amazing athlete that never quite put everything together on the big occasions like the World's or the Olympics. Nevertheless he was a World Record holder and still holds the Swedish Nationa Record in the Discus. His weight training was CRAZY!
Next time you think your training hard, think about Ricky in the 70's, in cold, lonely gyms doing this!
