That is actually footage of me in my backyard working out on my spare time.

ZING · 01-18-2009, 06:47 PM

^ I was wondering why he looked so familiar..hm..

why? · 01-18-2009, 07:07 PM

hope he figured out a way to earn lots of money, because he ain't spending time doing much else but working out. It is a pretty cool display of strength, but man, I'd hate to spend the time putting that much effort into it.

cali yaris · 01-18-2009, 10:10 PM

that is AMAZING... ima go do some pushups now.

TEHxFALLEN V1.2 · 01-18-2009, 10:11 PM

Hahah! I'm in my backyard right now, attempting to pull up and push up after pulling up... I swear he's not human.

why? · 01-18-2009, 10:17 PM

lol, he's human. Just spent more hours than you can think of training all the muscles you almost never use in normal day to day stuff.

nsmitchell · 01-19-2009, 03:18 PM

That is very impressive indeed! Wouldn't want to armwrestle that guy. Could result in compound fractures.

ddongbap · 01-19-2009, 03:31 PM

Don't gymnists do stuff like this all the time?

AlexNet0 · 01-19-2009, 03:54 PM

thats insane.. I used to be able to do stuff like that, but nowhere near what he did range of motion-wise or with anywhere near that much stamina, thats hard sh*t

GeneW · 01-20-2009, 04:46 AM

IF you look closely you'll see that he isn't well developed in the legs but has focused pretty intensively on his upper body. That has a lot to do with his success, he isn't toting around a lot of thigh and leg muscle. I would not be surprised if his bench press is astronomical for his weight.

Yeah, this is a lot of gymnastics stuff. I never did it but recognize the "flag", which is what he did on the fence and tree.

I respect his achievements because they did take a lot of hard work.

This is somewhat more practical superhuman effort... but I still think that flag was cool.

In the second match the Gracie person has a eighty four pound weight disadvantage.

I am skeptical of the statistic "seventy five percent of all fights go to the ground" but I think that the Gracies have a good system. They have my respect.
