Eddie Hall put on 40x40kg shoulder presses!

Eddie Hall has been preparing for a fight against the former Icelandic strongman for a long time, which made him switch from his traditional training style to boxing training. Obviously, such boxing training requires improving aerobic fitness which can be a real nut to crack for a strongman. Despite his bulky physique, Eddie handled this challenge very well and even managed to lose some pounds during the time he was training boxing style.

Although the fight itself didn't go well for Hall, as he lost on points, he still walked away from the fight with his head held high.

After this ordeal, Eddie was once again able to return to his beloved dumbbells, which Hall himself says are therapy for him and he is grateful every time he can lift something.

"I've still got it - 40kg x 40 reps. Whatever path I take, lifting weights is my therapy and I will always be forever grateful for the gift of the lift."
