Mitchell Hooper is a Canadian strongman and kinesiologist and he has secured first place at the 2023 World’s Strongest Man competition in Myrtle Beach. This makes you think that he is big and strong and could lift two people with his bare hands and throw them across the room. Yes, Hooper can do that but more importantly, the strongman can make people laugh.

Mitchell Hooper takes a dig at fitness influencers

The man who won the WSM title in September is still pretty much focused on improving his weaknesses. He is still diligently working out in the gym and improving his strengths every day. During such a session he decided to make a fun video and sat down to do some weightlifting exercises while yelling and sweating it out. The caption in the video stated, “Fitness influencers be like…” and then followed the music which was the highlight because it had a motivational quote along with an emotional song in the background.
