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.

Oh shut up!!!!!

Not like I was the only one thinking it.

Yes because you can't do it.

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

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

Yes but this relates much more to what we all do training wise.

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.

Ursus · « **Reply #15 on:** January 03, 2009, 04:07:03 PM »

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.
