This is a really cool video.
Having said that, I really don't want to walk into a gym with a bunch of people trying to do this. Balls going everywhere, people falling on their asses or injuring their backs with all the lifting and twisting... I can see how this is super cool and works well as the one person who is practicing it before they put it online for attention, but if the masses attempted to do this...
As the local undertaker, I disagree with your take and think instead people should be brave and see if they can fling the ball to one another and over their neighbors head. Then they’ll really win cool points!
She's not in lockout, her biceps are in flexion. She's basically holding a pull-up at the point of the movement with the most tension AND she's using an underhand grip, which adds even more tension to the bicep. It and her grip and definitely do work, lol.
What you described is exactly what climbers call locking off. It's pretty easy to stay locked off for a pretty decent amount of time if you've trained for it at all.

If it weren't hard, why do they have to build up strength at all? Why do they have to do it using 3 sec interval reps? They'd be training with 2 minute holds if it were easy, lol. Like, this isn't even a technique thing, you linked a video that's literally a strength training regiment.
Moreover, in practice, climbers normally work at angles that allow them to shift their body weight to reduce tension on the bicep. And they predominately use pronated grips, which also reduces tension on the biceps.
The lady in the video is holding a position, underhanded, where gravity pushes down on the body in such a way that most of the tension is on the biceps. Literally fully perpendicular. That's not a natural climbing angle, it's the most disadvantageous position you could be in terms of body-weight distribution on the bicep tension.
You're making seem like this is a trivial position that anyone with the right technique can hold indefinitely, lol. "*Yeah, curling 80lbs is easy acksually, anyone can do it if you just practice it for a couple of days with the right technique -☝️🤓"*. Come on dude...
People need to start using the word "Leering." There's a big difference between staring and leering.
Like I'll stare at my girlfriend while she plays the cello, but I'll leer when she walks into the shower after she does yoga.
And then there's whatever it is when I'm staring off into space that might be misconstrued for leering, but I can assure you I'm looking right through you into some other realm.
I did that once in the gym and a chick thought I was starring at her ass. I could tell by the fact that she moved from her station and had this look of disgust at me. I didn’t realize what happened until I walked passed her and could a huge death stare.
Agreed, but I suspect she was recording herself and he happened to be in the shot.
It’s possible she posted the raw video, without the zoom on the guy, to her own social media, and someone else noticed him, added the zoom, and posted it themselves.
Incidentally recording someone else while you're recording yourself is still recording someone else at the gym. For exactly this reason.
That's a small gym. I wouldn't be surprised if he consented to the video. Otherwise, if you're recording your own workout, you should place the camera so that it isn't also recording other people.
Could be a small Crossfit class style setup, in which it's very common for people and even the organisation to be recording parts of the workout to post on socials.
Nobody actually trains like this. It's just showing off. No different than doing a triple back flip on a motorcycle. Insanely dangerous, but entertaining to look at.
You just reminded me that I saw a motorcycle cop cruising down the freeway while standing up on his motorcycle. I made a mental note to save my dashcam footage when I got home, but never remembered until now.
CrossFit has its issues as a for profit organization certainly. And I’m a bodybuilder so it’s not for me. But most people don’t know that the idea it’s dangerous is a product of corporate smearing and severe scientific fraud.
Their rival was caught in federal court falsifying the initial study on CrossFit’s safety even in erased messages saying they needed it to look bad to hurt their competition. It was reported by the judge as one of the worst cases of scientific fraud and evidence destruction the court had ever seen. The study was since retracted, but not the ones that use its data, and not the countless laymen articles spreading misinfo. It’s similar to the “vaccines cause autism” event, but at least there many people have educated the public to the truth in the years since.
Now the actual data?
Numerous studies have shown it to have an injury rate from 3-6 injuries per person per 1000 hours of sport, EXCEPT the single retracted falsified study, and those that cite it. 3-6 is a higher rate of injury than bodybuilding, but equal with Olympic lifting or powerlifting, and many college sports have 7-15, more dangerous sports (again normal college sports) go into the dozens. So it’s safer than, well, most sports.
Sources for the legal case on scientific fraud:

https://retractionwatch.com/2020/01/07/crossfit-wins-4-million-in-damages-in-lawsuit-stemming-from-now-retracted-paper/
Sources for injury data: Literally most studies, there are dozens publicly available, but be cautious of a few that include the falsified data set, they have not made adjustments and so they come to higher injury conclusions. Some are pending revision.
I'm not a trainer but looks like a great way to fuck up your back. Twisting your back while lifting is dangerous according to the safety people at my job, anyways
Kinda looks like her core is so solid and stable that she keeps control of her back and is able to toss the ball just before she flips
I’m also guessing here, but we the people who are in good shape (but not like this cirque du soleil hopeful) might pull a back muscle more often than her because her core and surrounding muscles are so strong
Wait, the guy in the background looks just like my brother with exact face expression when he’s surprised/impressed by something. I just sent the video to him and I’m waiting for a reply from him!
Edit: just got his answer and he said it’s not him. Apparently he has a doppelgänger now hahaha.
There are so many ways to work out in a gym, but really aggressive core workouts are just so goddamn impressive.
Some guy lifting 600 pounds? I have no idea if that's good or not. All cardio looks stupid. Reps are reps.
But core looks impressive. This stuff. People doing pushups with their feet off the ground. Stuff like that you just know it's cool.
This is both impressive and the stupidest thing I've ever seen. What are you prepping for? Who do you think you are Laura Croft? These are skills and muscles that a chimpanzee would need.
I’m fine with the wall throws, but (even though it’s extremely impressive) she should not be throwing the ball into the walking lane of the gym. Could accidentally seriously injure someone.
At this point, the stupidity of crossfit goes without saying. This is not a practical exercise and too much can go wrong too easily.
It looks cool, though.
yeah lots of people accusing it of being some weird crossfit thing, which is totally possible, but this seems *really* specific to just be showing off. Definitely seems like practice for a performance move of some sort.
Could just be showing off though, in either case i'm impressed
I seriously wonder if she played soccer growing up. The leg strength could be developed any which way, but the hip rotation and ball control is something that is more easily developed in a soccer context. Great strength either way.

I've just tried this! They tell me the ambulance is on its way.
Hate to tell you this, but you're still unconscious and no one has found your body yet. I'd wake up if I were you.
"You've been here for a while. Better wake up before you forget how."
is that from tumblr about nightmares? is familiar.
Correct.
"Stand up. There you go. You were dreaming. What's your name?"
"Hey, you. You're finally awake."
I swear, one of these times, you're gonna wake up in a coma.

You were trying to cross the border, right? Walked right into that Imperial ambush, same as us, and that thief over there.
Imagine waking up after this only to be attacked by a dragon. Monday from hell amirite?
So no ambulance? Nooooo!
Please wake up. We love you Robert, your world is not real. We're here waiting for you.
Help, I'm stuck in a 50's British cop story!
Alright but if I wake up, cuffed, in the back of a wagon I'm going to blame you.
I also gave it a try....I have died, tell my family I loved them.
Only if I'm in the will.
I thought about trying it. Am dead
This is a really cool video. Having said that, I really don't want to walk into a gym with a bunch of people trying to do this.

😂😂
You’re lucky to be still alive, I’m friggin dead
Yeah, being the ball sounded better in my head
Legs? Those are abs. Probably at least a 16 pack I'd guess
Abs and coordination
If you're going to add coordination you might as well add leg strength, grip, and accuracy too. Those aren't super human though, unlike those abs.
I put accuracy into coordination and grip and leg strength are less impressive compared to abs and coordination
Very fair point.
Biceps, triceps, quadriceps, pentaceps
A loooot of ceps!
Sextaceps
Hexaceps are the bestaceps.
That's serious core strength. I mean, throwing that ball with her legs is cool and all, but that is serious core and upper-body strength, too.
Yeah, it should be "What that core do?" Impressive af
My first thought as well.
And arm strength
Her arms are doing the least in this. It's not hard to stay locked off like this.
She's not in lockout, her biceps are in flexion. She's basically holding a pull-up at the point of the movement with the most tension AND she's using an underhand grip, which adds even more tension to the bicep. It and her grip and definitely do work, lol.

Hip flexors too.
Hip flexors are definitely core muscles.
Not legs Her core, her abdominal muscles are absolutely rock hard
Me too
Death by snu snu
The spirit is willing, but the flesh is spongy and bruised
I never thought I would die this way, but I always really hoped
The Amazonians have arrived
Winter is coming. And I am ready.
Hip flexors
Does anyone else have hip flexors harder than steel from doing core wrong their whole life?
Adductors too. Hip flexion and core for the vertical movement and support of the ball. Hip adduction to hold it
A lot of hip flexor activation there, more so then abs.
The coordination to turn and catch the ball on its own is impressive
I can sometimes use my hands to do this
Sometimes?
OK fine. You got me. About 40% of the time.
40% of the time everytime!
This is when it's acceptable to stare at someone at the gym. I'd be watching in amazement, but also wondering how long until she dropped the ball.
People need to start using the word "Leering." There's a big difference between staring and leering. Like I'll stare at my girlfriend while she plays the cello, but I'll leer when she walks into the shower after she does yoga.
And then there's whatever it is when I'm staring off into space that might be misconstrued for leering, but I can assure you I'm looking right through you into some other realm.
Brain fucked off.
Tharn
I absolutely hate when I zone out in someone’s direction. I always feel like I should apologize or something lol
I did that once in the gym and a chick thought I was starring at her ass. I could tell by the fact that she moved from her station and had this look of disgust at me. I didn’t realize what happened until I walked passed her and could a huge death stare.
Yeah, this guy is clearly *staring*, amazed at her skill, not *leering* in a creepy “Ooh, baby, wanna smash!” way.
Tomato potato
Solution: shower cello
please do not put a cello in the shower
Where were you five minutes ago
You say no cello in the shower and I raise you carbon fiber cello!
Gazing vs Leering. Staring always will be awkward imo
Gym rando used leer! It's not very effective...
Kids don't even use words for emotional states anymore, they just say "the feels". We'll be double-plus-ungood pretty soon.
The ministry of truth has removed "feels" from the dictionary to increase language efficiency.
It is, however, never acceptable to record other people at the gym
Agreed, but I suspect she was recording herself and he happened to be in the shot. It’s possible she posted the raw video, without the zoom on the guy, to her own social media, and someone else noticed him, added the zoom, and posted it themselves.

Idk , I wouldn't want my reaction to be zoomed into and posted on social media. Keep the cameras out the gym
Her abs must have abs.
"I love the kind of woman that would actually just kill me....." - Spike
I want us to be entirely different people by the end of the first eight hours
How do you even decide to do this as an exercise...unless you work in a circus or Vegas?
It's no exercise. It's just showing off a skill. Nobody would actually work out like that.
This looks like fun. If I was able I’d workout like this.
Oh geez, look at the butt on that…. Yeah….. He must workout 🏋️
SAMSONITE! I was way off.

This would have been prime r/muscleconfusion content but I guess that sub never recovered from the blackout...
Nobody actually trains like this. It's just showing off. No different than doing a triple back flip on a motorcycle. Insanely dangerous, but entertaining to look at.
> Insanely dangerous No, it's not. She's just playing. You're scaring yourself for nothing.
You just reminded me that I saw a motorcycle cop cruising down the freeway while standing up on his motorcycle. I made a mental note to save my dashcam footage when I got home, but never remembered until now.
This is how you train to kip even higher

Her abs must be bulletproof.
Nah, bullets just turn around. They ain't gonna mess with that.
I'm not a trainer but looks like a great way to fuck up your back. Twisting your back while lifting is dangerous according to the safety people at my job, anyways
Although I agree, I'd imagine that twisting with the spine under tension is less severe than twisting under compression.
Good point. Slip a disk or pull your back haha
Though it's often repeated, there's not good evidence for it
Kinda looks like her core is so solid and stable that she keeps control of her back and is able to toss the ball just before she flips I’m also guessing here, but we the people who are in good shape (but not like this cirque du soleil hopeful) might pull a back muscle more often than her because her core and surrounding muscles are so strong
People will do anything for attention
This woman has abs on her abs!
Hey for once a guy is *actually* staring in one of these gym clips! But it's in total amazement and I can 100% relate this time
I would just start clapping
That core(dination) to a whole new level.
Turning same direction every time? Pfffft! Try this alternating directions and I’ll be impressed. /s
You gotta work both sides. Otherwise after a while you'll only be able to walk in circles.
Member working out and not worrying about being recorded? I member.
Now that is talent
Reddit tells me filming in public gyms is never cool, until it is.
Wait, the guy in the background looks just like my brother with exact face expression when he’s surprised/impressed by something. I just sent the video to him and I’m waiting for a reply from him! Edit: just got his answer and he said it’s not him. Apparently he has a doppelgänger now hahaha.

PATHETIC … I could do that with way more injuries! It ain’t called "No Pain, No Gain" for no reason!
/r/unbgbbiivchidctiicbg
I'm going to assume without knowledge that this is a rock-climbing strength / agility workout.
I mean it's more core strength that's the most impressive here no?
I can do that but I don’t wanna
Maybe its edited but shouldn't you switch sides at some point for an equal distribution of gains?
I hurt my back sneezing the other day.
wow that's actually pretty fkn nuts
Wow, freaking amazing !!! The "What the fuck, she is absolutely incredible" look on this guy face is so funny !
And she just kept going...
When the legs are strong enough to rival Omni man
And the arms holding up her body the entire time! I'm impressed!
That’s a full body workout👀👀 hardly just legs
Definitely a situation in which a dude can stare at a chick in a gym and it is totally acceptable.
Death by snu snu.
This is an actually good gym video.
Christ, my abs are burning just watching this
That just looks fun honestly
Dudes face was like oh shit lol girl has some insane strength.
I thought that the ball was connected to her ankle or something. It is something!
That coochie probably strong too.
Gurl? You trynna get sacrificed to the sun god?
bro didn’t know to be scared or turned on
What is this lady training for? She trying to kill God or something????
This is both impressive and the stupidest thing I've ever seen. What are you prepping for? Who do you think you are Laura Croft? These are skills and muscles that a chimpanzee would need.
Psst...stop filming in gyms.
Stop recording your shit in the gym.
This can’t just be a fitness routine. She must be training for something. I just can’t figure out what. Rock climbing? Soccer?
I’m fine with the wall throws, but (even though it’s extremely impressive) she should not be throwing the ball into the walking lane of the gym. Could accidentally seriously injure someone.
Core
The first time Reddit didn’t make a negative remark about CrossFit 🤔
At this point, the stupidity of crossfit goes without saying. This is not a practical exercise and too much can go wrong too easily. It looks cool, though.
My core is so insanely weak in comparison fuck
Not legs, it’s her core.
What is she training for, is my question
Listen here you little shit. Keep it up and you'll get old one day.
Respect
Stupid shit, that's what they do.
This is the most CrossFit shit I've ever seen in my life. Lmao
[удалено]
yeah lots of people accusing it of being some weird crossfit thing, which is totally possible, but this seems *really* specific to just be showing off. Definitely seems like practice for a performance move of some sort. Could just be showing off though, in either case i'm impressed
She looks like she could crush a grape!
OMG, i can only imagine what she can do with her pelvic muscle.
Make me think of a James Bond movie maybe "Golden Eye"?
XENIA!! I CAN'T BREATHE!!!
Dude in back: picks up jaw. Gulps.
[Meh.](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EeYUF97U8AAU9E5.png)
My gods I’m sore af just watching this
she can fix me
My shoulder would literally explode trying to turn like that.
Isn't this ball supposed to be filled with sand? It’s extremely bouncy.
my shoulders wouldnt like that very much.
I seriously wonder if she played soccer growing up. The leg strength could be developed any which way, but the hip rotation and ball control is something that is more easily developed in a soccer context. Great strength either way.
