A year after his retirement from the Ski World Cup, Frieda Hansdotter shows that he is still in top form, setting an impressive record on a television show.

During her active career, Frieda Hansdotter has been a world leader in slalom for years and has finished on the podium 34 times at the World Cup. Supreme glory continues at Pyeongchang 2018, when the Swedes fulfilled their Olympic gold dream before retiring in autumn 2019 at the age of 33. About a year later, on the television show “Mästarnas fattened”, he shows that he is still in top form.

Former Swedish athletes compete in various disciplines on the program. When exercise participants have to sit on a wall for as long as possible, of course, without using any muscle-based equipment, Hansdotter’s impressive demonstration of power follows. With an apparently playful lightness, she puts the competition in her place. Former GC player Kim Källström, who spends almost five minutes on the wall, also falls behind.

After 12 minutes and the end of the last weakened competitor, Hansdotter’s victory in this challenge is certain, but the 34-year-old doesn’t have enough. Sometimes, with a smile on his face, he stays at a 90-degree angle and pulverizes the previous record of 13 minutes that former biathlete Magdalena Forsberg set in 2013. It was only after 26 minutes, and still not reaching the limit, that Hansdotter got up and caused amazement.

Although she had considered giving up after breaking Forsberg’s record. “At the same time, however, I still had strength in my legs and I was wondering if I could still drive 15 minutes,” explains Hansdotter afterwards. Awesome
