Alot of strong jokers on here..... but can anone perform these feats of strength?
-
no because the strength freaks on getbig limits their definition on strength to things like bench pressing and squats.
-

No, because functional strength isn't in their vocabulary!!

My money says its not in yours either
-
I usually warm-up before every lift with a few of the side pushups. Guess I'm just that good.

Yah, but how much can they bench? ;)

and the point of doing summer saults and handstands is...??

Don't know. Makes you think, like what's the point about lying about a 535 pound bench at 181 pounds?
-
Looks like training for Cirque du Soleil
-
I am equally impressed with these athletes as well as someone getting a world class benchpress.
Very inspiring.

I used to be able to do those alooooooooooooong time ago. Used to do them on Palm Canyon Bl. on strett signs walking down the street. I called them flagpoles. I was about 210 then.

Thats what I teach.....so when your ready to bet (and lose) some money, I'll give you my paypal info!!

He can also bench 535 at 181 pounds without a shirt! ::)

Insane.

No, why in the hell would i want to do that??

so what functional strength do you have?

STFU before I bitch slap your narrow ass!!
-
so what functional strength do you have?
I said thats what I TEACH and yes, I train function strength as well!
-
when I was in high school we had a guy on my wrestling teamthat could hold himself out straight from a pole like that,but never saw him attempt the rest of that movement...no way could I have done it.
-
I said thats what I TEACH and yes, I train function strength as well!
what do you mean by that specifically?
-
Pretty impressive!
-
ALL DRUGS
-
It's hard to have a weightlifter's power and that kind of bodyweight control. I was laughing yesterday at how many more chins and dips I could do. Of course, I weighed about 60 lbs less... ;D
-
do you guys ever use static training? Its was popular some years ago-never seen anybody do it lately, for bodybuilding I meen.
-
i'm sure Mr. Intenseone could do it after all he bench pressed 535 weighing 181. ::)
-
That functional strength is very impressive to watch, but even though that 145lb gymnast can do all that gymnastic stuff I'd still wager he couldn't bp 250lbs for more than 2 reps on his best day.
Amazing abdominal strength and flexibility.....still very impressive.
-
it's all about balancing and technic, the guy is strong as hell also and probably working for le circe du soleil
-
these little guys are strong to say the least, but if they go up in bodyweight, let's say 200lbs+, I doubt they'll be able to do all that shit
-
My friend Paul McIlroy is a true freak reps one arm chins. and handstand pressups full length (hands on 2 benches) till head nearly touches ground without any support
Look up Jespar benicasa i think his name is and a move he called the CTI close to impossible
-

Exactly, strap 100lbs of additional muscle mass on em and I'd like to see some of that. At that lighter bodyweight I think it's more about cardiovascular endurance and extreme flexibility; granted they're very strong, but I'd still like to see him bp twice his bodyweight for a couple reps.
-
no excuse unless they are 280lbs
men over 260lbs have done true one arm chins. with weights attached and for reps
-
so what functional strength do you have?
Most of the time when I train, I don't train like a bodybuilder would train, or at least I don't train like that anymore, anotherwords I don't train by just isolating a particular muscle group, I integrate my program with a combination of basic strength and multi-joint movements especially in my hips, glutes, hamstrings and lower back. But basically the definition of "funtional strength" is purposeful training, training the muscles for movement!

Vern? ;D

very impressive, but rarely will you see a over 250 pound guy performing impressive bodyweight exercises. This guy looks to be in the 165 range or so and is in a gymnastics center. Could he do it if he put a 85 pound vest on??
-
Alot of strong jokers on here..... but can anone perform these feats of strength?
No they can't...and these are admirable feats of strength for a trained gymnast...but neither can these trained gymnasts perform RAW standing barbell presses of over 400 lbs., bench presses of over 600 lbs., barbell curls of over 250 lbs., and jerks from the rack with over 500 lbs....as can very strong powerlifters, bodybuilders, and Olympic weightlifters.
You are trying to compare apples and oranges!
-
what do you mean by that specifically?
It means it's another lie in his long list of bullshit stories that have no proof or backing. ::)

How many people would rather be a fat strong as fuck powerlifter or bodybuilder over someone who do incredible things with their bodies (like Freerunners) when you are on survival mode in the wilderness. WHen it comes down to it like hiking, traversing, rock climbing, hanging and all round endurance I would muchrather be someone who has functional strength like a gymnast or Freerunner. Imagine going across a wooden bridge and it collapses. You have to hang on. How long do you think a powerlifter or bodybuilder is going to be able to hang on compared to the others. Not Long.
-
i could do most of those with a bit of cross training :)
-

Wow, I can't believe someone on HERE has heard of Vern Gambetta, I went to one of his seminars last year, how do you know of him?

I-one looks pretty big I think. He is short but he does look pretty big in the chest and arms.Besides he is in his forties. I hope I can stay in that kind of shape when I am that age.

Put a shirt or sweater on them and you couldn't tell that they worked out...no thanks.

I would more impressed if girls were doing that.

:o His name is synonymous with functional, not to mention he's been around forever. Didn't he used to head up conditioning for some baseball team ??? The man is truly one of the great ones in the industry.
-
