"It's not just about going to the gym, it's part of their lifestyle. Their diet alone is really full on - for six months they have to eat 8,000 calories every day. That's colossal.
"It was amazing to witness. I saw Niall squat with a quarter of a tonne on his back and I saw Aly lift heavier than any average man could. I'm in awe of how disciplined they are.
"And all of that is just for one day. It's planning a wedding or something...Except maybe a very painful wedding!
"I never thought we had people at that level in Ireland. The two I met are competing on a global scale. They're up there with the best."
Baz's Extreme Worlds is on RTÉ Two tonight at 10.20pm.
