We Tried Aleksandr Karelin's Impossible Wrestling Workout

We Tried The Best Wrestler Of All-Time's Workout | Aleksandr Karelin

Widely considered the greatest and scariest wrestler of all time, Alexsandr stood 6’3”, 290 pounds and had a record of 887 wins and 2 losses and went undefeated for an amazing 13 straight years, winning 3 Olympic gold medals. Born in Siberia as a 15 pound baby, Alexsandr began wrestling at 13 years old and using moves such as his patented Karelin lift, he intimidated his opponents so badly some simply allowed themselves to be pinned, rather than risking injury.
