Strongman Nicolas Cambi Locks Out Massive 427-lb Push Press By Using Tsunami Bar

As everyone knows by now, the sport of Strongman is highly unconventional in the majority of its core exercises. So, the best way to prepare for the unpredictable challenges which might appear in competitions is to also train unconventionally. Nicolas Cambi was doing just that recently, having performed a humongous Push Press of 427 pounds (193.6 kilograms), but by using a tsunami barbell instead of a standard one.

Nicolas Cambi organized his own seminar in Sacramento, California where he asked the attendees if they wanted to see him lift some heavy weights on a specific exercise. Thus, wanting to see something spectacular, the people decided that Cambi should perform a push press with a tsunami barbell.

Tsunami barbell is a quite specific addition to the assortment of interesting barbells in strength sports. It is made in a way which allows it to bend, or more specifically flexibly oscillate during the movement. So, it makes every movement with it much more difficult, as it requires an extra stabilizing effort.

Equipped with just some elbow sleeves, wrist wraps, and a lifting belt, Nicolas Cambi easily lifted the massive weight of 427 pounds (193.6 kilograms), impressing everyone at the seminar as well as those who watched the lift on Instagram.

Nicolas Cambi’s Tsunami Bar Push Press is impressive for multiple reasons.

One of the most obvious features of his performance is his display of shoulder strength, however, it is also important to note how much core strength he required to stabilize the lift after lockout.

Seeing how Nicolas Cambi’s Tsunami Bar Push Press looked very interesting, some people in the comments expressed their desire to see it in Strongman competitions. One of those is the 2019 World’s Strongest Man, Martins Licis, who left a comment under Cambi’s post.

“That needs to be an event” wrote Licis.

Nicolas Cambi is not too active as a Strongman competitor, but he does not take his foot off the gas in regard to his training. He is known as one of the greatest U105KG Strongman athletes in the world. He established this in 2021 when he won the U105KG WSM.

Overall, Nicolas Cambi has competed in six International competitions and won two of them. He also previously set the U105KG Heavy Dumbbell World Record of 285 pounds, the Block Press World Record of 311.9 pounds, and the Log Lift World Record of 412.3 pounds.
