this is AMAZING...can you do it lol

He didn't do a single pullup but still impressive.

Guys that do bouldering are pretty ****ing strong.

Skip to 0:45 also 1:30. Now that's very impressive.

 

Why not?

 

Huh?

My point was he didn't do a pullup. It makes no difference if it's with 1 finger, 3 fingers or one hand, if it's not a pullup it's not a pullup.

 

He did like a bunch of half pull ups doe

 

not only that but the question is how heavy is he?

 

Go back and read what you quoted me saying, I already gave you an answer to this. I wasn't even being strict, the guy isn't even doing half ROM.

Also, what you said is just dumb. You're basically saying if you make a lift really difficult, forget about full range of motion and form as long as you go through at least 10% of the movement it still counts! atsch

Your way of thinking I could easily be a powerlifter. Un-rack the weight, drop 3 inches then stand back up. It's a ****ing heavy ass weight! You don't expect me to do an actual full ROM squat do you?! atsch

Because, unless you're a rock climber for example, it's entirely pointless. Why would the average gym rat train to hang off the pullup bar on a single finger? :huh

I weigh about 180lbs. I can do 2 finger pullups now if I walked into the gym, full ROM. It wouldn't take long to be able to do 1 finger if I actually trained for it.

 

Climbers have the best functional strength of any Sport.

 

I'd agree with that after watching some of the bouldering championships.

 

Interestingly Virus, some of the best climbers ive known were all over 12 stone
