Sizzling Icelandic Hunk Viðarsson: An Attraction - What drives the muscular man of Gummersbach?

Commentator Lennart Wilken-Johannes remarks without jealousy, "His physique could grace the cover of Men's Health. He's a powerhouse." This observation is no accident.

The athletic hunk from Iceland, Viðarsson, leads an active lifestyle in addition to his handball profession, and he enjoys showcasing it on Instagram. He plays basketball, cycles, takes long walks, and most of all, plays golf.

In handball, the player standing in the center of the circle who has been with VfL Gummersbach since 2020 is known for creating the top spin shot in the Bundesliga, a move closely followed by DHB star Justus Fischer (21, Hanover). These players often employ this variant for throw-ins following conceded goals when the opponent puts their faith in a field player rather than the goalkeeper.

These skilled athletes turn their hand over while throwing the ball, causing their backhanded finger to point towards the opponent's goal. Upon release, they apply force and let the ball roll over their fingers, making it spin forward on collision and bounce flat instead of high into the goal.

Apart from Gummersbach, Viðarsson is also a crucial member of the Icelandic national handball squad.

Those hoping for a date after the muscular battle against Rhein-Neckar Löwen will be dismayed: Viðarsson is taken. His charmed partner, Sóldis Eva Gylfadóttir, is a strength coach and welcomed their first child at the end of 2023. The adorable baby girl has the artistic name Kristel Sól Elliðadóttir. Both Viðarsson and Gylfadóttir hail from Vestmannaejar, an Icelandic archipelago of volcanic origin home to a population of 4,523 inhabitants.
