Pretty cool. I did varsity gymnastics and that dude is way better that I ever was. That stuff is pretty translatable to highbar and I bet he could pick up pommel pretty quickly. These days, just lifting myself out of bed is a workout. Oh, and I jump to conclusions a lot, so I guess that covers cardio.  ;D

i cant run a sub 4 minute mile but dont care about it despite it being impressive.

Same way i cant do an ironman but dont care about it
Title: Re: Amazing Pulling Strength

the only pulling strength that matters is pulling girls in a crowded bar where every other male is trying the same

Yes but you said you don't find it impressive. Well it is and you know it. So it's the hater in you talking.

ok well let me make it clearer i was wrong in my wording of it.

It is impressive but, i am not interested nor if i seen someone do that on the street i wouldnt watch it. Nor would i go out of my way to watch it on youtube etc

well he weighs 160 and the brick is about 15lbs, so that's 175 with one arm.  I guess you can easily do a 2 arm pull-up with 350 total pounds?

Bar-barians .

if you are objecting to calling it a team, that's fine.  You could call it a crew, or you could just say it's a bunch of guys that go to the park and play on the monkeybars.  I'm not hung up on it being classified as a sport.  For the most part I hate sports.

no objections....just a question. didnt know whether or not the video/ act of pulls was a team thing.....or you were part of another team ie: gymnast or something

The only bars you're familiar with are the one's with sneeze guards.  Try again.

Being strong is one of the coolest things ever, I shouted out loud when I saw the one arm pull up.  Damn strong.

yep, this dude is a monster no doubt.

with a little bit of finger training I think he would be a good climber as well.

yeah hard to compete with guys who have been training hard since 7 and do it as a full-time job.
Title: Re: Amazing Pulling Strength

It's impressive. So when someone comes along who "is not impressed", I feel the need to correct him.

Thought that wouldn't be too hard to grasp actually.

But you care enough about men in thongs and bodybuilders in general to continue posting on this board???

This is the white man secret...HE WORSHIPS AND WISHES HE WAS A BLACK MAN EVERY WAKING MOMENT OF HIS LIFE....
But to keep his secret... he condems the very people he loves so much

WAS I RIGHT ON WITH THIS??? BE TRUTHFUL NOW!!!!

...

All BLACK men thank you for the compliment...You see the many natural talents that keep a white male jealous is always shown in the white males attitude and anger toward the Black male. It takes the Black male only a short time to master a new ability which the white male, knowing his limitations and abilities, grows angry even hostile because at best he can only try to copy the Black male and even then meets with FAILURE. So mr. white male...are you still trying to MOONWALK, RAP, DANCE, PLAY SPORTS etc etc etc...that is the REAL JOKE WORTH LAUGHING AT.....lolololololololol ol.

BTW since the whilte male is so diverse (haha)...please perform a feat of some sort of which the world has not seen and post it on the boards. Surely you and the other inbreds don't want the world to believe you are as USELESS as you are. Perform any task, sport, science, literature, music...whatever you wish and let the world see what a white male is capable of... if he is capable of anything at all except corporate corruption...

I will wait a repsonse or should I say VIDEO DEPICTING THIS TASK...

sorry homie never meant to offend 'da crew'

Infact ill stand by my original point. Despite it not being something i can do it does not impress me at all. Impress is the proper word. I dont think 'wow' or 'cool' i just flip on past it.

I have no issues with black men and agree they have superior genetics to strength size and speed. Big deal

videos of me are coming soon.  Don't expect any weighted one arm pull-ups yet though, I'm just starting to get them with my bodyweight.

That's kind of besides the point though, I'm posting to spread awareness of bodyweight conditioning and Zef is a good representative.
