The bodybuilding legend Mike O’ Hearn once praised Bjornsson for covering a range of motion while performing his lifts. Speaking about Bjornsson’s bodybuilding principles Mike o’ Hearn commented, “Your guys’ range of motion is better than a lot of bodybuilders. And that’s what I don’t think they realize. I was watching you do incline press and there is an extension that you do. There is nothing missed. You go from the bottom to the very top, and it’s the full range of motion.”

But it was unfortunate that Bjornsson suffered a major injury while working out. He is preparing himself for surgery and the fans’ prayers are always with him.
