I commented before you Nick😅
@@joshualarsen8306 I love the early squad!!!
Do a combat boots or cowboy boots mile, that would be funny
Sup nick, you inspired me to start a 30 day workout I started it like 5 days ago, I can see that I'm improving.
I also gave myself a goal for the 2 mile of 15 minutes, but I'm using an app to measure my distance and the fastest I can do a mile right now is in 9 minutes 46 seconds. I am only 13 but I'm pretty fast and my stamina is okay so i dont know if it's a problem with the app or me, anyways I love your videos.
“It was the dumbest thing I’d ever seen
So I got a pair for myself” -Only nick
and me, but i cant afford them
😁😁😁
This is why he is the best fitness/entertainment channel 😂
M. T. How much are they
Andy Olsen 190 -210
Try wearing heelies, those will get you there forsure
heelies defy the laws of physics
The first and only time I wore heelys I went down the ramp at my local mini mall and ended up breaking the speed of sound. That type of speed is too powerful for someone like me
That's solid content honestly
I was hoping someone would recommend this first thing I thought of
Last time I wore heelies,
You know the water jugs with the small cap to let water in? I fell onto that, on my back. I'm lucky I didn't break my spine
I imagine him in his peak years, goofing around like this
too risky!!
Too risky for WRs he bout to break all of them
i like how bionic nick can run a mile faster than me while i sit here and like my own comment smh
I liked your comment too!!!!
Nick Symmonds likes mines to
I ran my best mile this year at 42 y/o. 8.25 minutes. I hated running when I was younger...I couldn't get into it.
U missed a huge opportunity to call him BioNick
I would have to be near my prime but I could beat bionic nick however his normal race would kick my ass
Just remember that this is the guy that came 5th in the 800m in the 2012 Olympic Games
dang, is he just not able to run as fast anymore? Cause a 6:30 mile isn't very fast, And I can't imagine those shoes would really slow you do that much
@@QueenGlory13 maybe hes somewhat out of shape or the shoes mess up his form or balance i dont really know 😅
@@QueenGlory13 they look a bit heavy
@@QueenGlory13 it's the shoes. Look at his other videos.
And this is the guy who’s profile picture is an among us character
Rumor is this video took 4 years to film. Nick had to recover from 7 broken ankles in the process
ha!!
LOL...
Lol
Whaaaaaa???
Try doing a mile in roller blades
I can go under world record pace in roller blades, but I have to bust my ass to do it and I've been skating since I was a kid. It's amazing how fast these elite runners move.
@@Ricciuto1980 I agree. I have the K2 110s and though they are very fast. I average sub 4min per mile over 10 miles. Thats about what an Olympian averages lol. They are fast
@@Ricciuto1980 then you are slow toller blades are so much faster
vxVexom yeah but maybe not on a track like this
@@fighter-yo3di on a track like that i Think its impossible
How to run a 3:43 mile (without being Hicham El Gerrouj):
- Super steep downhill 1 mile road
- Be followed by 1 or more vehicles with industrial sized fans giving you an obscene tail wind.
Austin Culver challenges requires you to be alive at the bottom, not dead :)
Also a car in front to prevent head wind lol
I was gonna suggest this minus the wind part, but I like that as well.
You forgot the hardest to achieve requirement
-do not fall
Sounds legit . Resistance training . Muscle memory.
Agreed. Cognitive validation of confidence.
- 200m in 50 secs - yeah guys it’s alright I’m learning I can still beat the record
:D
This guy puts so much work into his videos! Lovin’ the new content lately! Keep up the good work!
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, put the alphaflys on the stilts. Record will go down no problem.
😂👍😂👍😂
It sounds too squishy to me 😂
Did you hear? Nike is making a pair specifically for Kipchoge with 26.2 mile stack height. All he has to do is fall over, and will likely break the marathon record
But, I would gladly take another video of him falling on his face 😂
@@turnermerritt7960 I almost spit out my food reading this comment, thanks for the laugh ✌️
love the energy nick. Thanks for all the great videos
Can't wait to see him wear shoes made out of rungum 😄
Nick symmonds needs too do the 800m and everyone where's the shoes next and races with them
“Where’s” lol derp
Thank you for all your videos during quarantine!! Brings me joy every time
thanks for watching them!!
FRACTURED RIP! Ouch, I can't your still out here pumping out content.
Nick how are you still training?!
I think it was just a joke
Man, Nick doesn't give up...inspiration!
I like all your videos. Every time you come with different concept I look forward to.
Him running a mile: I’m having so much fun
Me running a mile: this is the worst day of my life
Great video!!!
Disclaimer : the video was published 1 minute ago so I didn't watch it yet but I'm sure it's gonna be great as usual !!!
ha!! thanks for the love!!!!
This is awesome, very respectable time. I’d like to see you try the WR running backwards. RunGum sounds awesome can’t wait to try it!
Just got my trial pack last week! Cool to know that you personally pack each trial pack. The gum tastes great and I’ve used the head band more times than I can count already! Great video as always man!
Thank you for watching this video and thanks for giving Run Gum a try!!!
Found this channel about a month ago and just love Nick’s positivity and inclusive attitude! We need more people like you man keep up the great work👏
This is pure great content. I bought a scale, loaded a bunch of “How to treat/avoid Runners knee” in my UA-cam playlist. Have still cramp from nasty hamstring injuries. That’s all for this week. Next week: plan the start of exercise and stretch. No overdoing here 🤠
Find a mile-long straight of those conveyor belts at the airport that move you forwards and 3:43 is yours!
Next week I’m breaking the flip flop 100m wr ‼️
CRUSH IT!!!
Sounds like hell lol
It will be tough 😂😂
You should try the high heel 100. They guys time is legit slower than the girls time
Trevor Carey 🤔 coming soon
Pulling out the Caddyshack quote! “So I’ve got that going for me... which is nice” awesome!!!
Love your channel, I think I finally will try the Run Gum !!!
We love your fun, Nick!
I love when you do these challenges!
Bro your insane at every subject when it comes to running, even with those jumpshoes on!!😎
Your videos are awesome and fun i really enjoy it
Great going Nick
The best fitness channel ever. Nick is entertaining.
Hey Nick thanks for the vids. Love from Oakridge 😁
Thanks for the love Joshua!!
Love the vid and I wish I could join you guys in all of the challenges thanks for entertaining us all
Thanks for watching Sam!!
Nick Symmonds always happy too! You make the best content!
Nick dude these videos are great. GG on your mile
Thank you Thomas!!
You are my motivational master. Love you Nick.
Nick i would love if you did more race recap videos as well, those were dope!
Coming soon!!
@@nicksymmonds yo lets gooo!!
Nick is my favorite youtuber
Great video king
Imagine nick racing a 400M except barefoot on legos 🤣
I can't wait for the next video👋💪👊
Great video! You should try the Pacer Test again! That was one of my many favorite videos on your channel!
Love your content
Once upon a time I ran 1000m in somewhat 3:20 with these. Was pushing quite hard, but not to the max limit. My all-in 1000m with normal running shoes in those days would be somewhat approx. 2:50-2:55.
Basically my feelings were that it is possible to get significantly more speed out of the rebouncing system overall, but both it requires quite a bit of practice at higher-than-race-pace speed and most of all the springs have to be adjusted for the specific speed. So that the stiffness of rebounce at 4 mins/km shall be completely different to that at 3:20 and faster - if it is too soft, you waste both time and energy while struggling to bring your leg to the front from the rearmost position. But if it well-tuned you can make the spring actually to push you forwards at the right moment.
Anyway, nowadays still use these shoes for alternative training exercise and I consider them way better than most alternatives, e.g. skiing, cycling, rowing and so. In my opinion, they fill this niche extraordinary well.
What brand did you buy them from?
@@The_ZeroLine Mine were/are from "Kangoo Jumps".
👍🏼awesome demo and video
The channel is growing really quick, awesome! 1M coming soon. I want to try and beat the 400m in crocs record ;D
Dude I need some of these in my life
Nice vid
If by “setting the world record” you mean “Staying upright” then yes that is possible.
Nick, you are nutz! But I love your unconventional running ideas 🤣
I love how your slow mike in these is my pace that I did for a 2 mile 2 weeks ago like there’s levels lol but good job
Nick's time in the jump shoes is basically my fastest mile time right now in tennis shoes...wow. I wonder what it would look like to see Nick run a mile as fast as he can in normal shoes but do it backwards...
That looked much less painful than with the stilts! In the decathlon last summer (age 56) my 1500 meter time was 6:31, so converting for distance, I'd have been right beside you all the way in this race brother! #miserylovescompany :-)
My best last year was 6 minutes. I’m 40. Can do 5 in 40-45
How does nick only have 240k subs, this channel is awesome
Thank you!!!
The white and gold colors on those shoes are dope
Let's Go Nick!
Wow so 😎 I love your channel I watch every day
That is the most perpendicular lean I have ever seen! HAHA!! Love how you can do a mile in those shoes only 14 seconds slower than i can do a regular mile.
Awesome Video!!!
Love what you do
Ouch!! Every time I see that jump stilts fall, I feel your pain.
Gg, Oregon bro. I'm from Coos Bay. In USMC boot camp I did the 3-miler in 20:50, About your pace there. Carry on, man.
As a futurist sci-fi author, I want to see these under our Marines of the future. Kangaroos integrated into an exoskeleton, so carrying a full kit & plates, the weight is seriously mitigated.
The only reason why I got this is because it does like 80% eases your knee joints with the cushion of impact the spring. The impact is so light on your knees, like you are pedaling a bike.
Next month, nick will find another pair of bionic shoes, and he’ll try to break the world record again. I’m calling it right now!
MAYBE!!!!! :D
bro I love your videos
I want to be an athlete
Also me:Eating 5 boxes of pizza every weekend
I run outside in my all the time and I can run WAY faster in them then I can without them. They are great for running and for working out in. I would recommend these for anyone that want a fun, challenging way to work out
Would be interesting to see a training series where you set a timed mile goal and train up to it
Naruto style run for the mile? I did this looking like a weeb but got a 6:45 mile.
Lmao i did the naruto run for the 400 meter dash and got first place
@@bruhmoment14 lol
Bruh moment
@nicksymmonds I love that you always try to conquer every challenge even if you have failed it before, you always keep going. Respect!
CANT STOP WONT STOP!!!
Nick should try doing distance in sprint spikes and distance spikes in sprints
What about trying roller blades?? Love watching your videos!
Who already knew before clicking the vid that he'll be no where near breaking the record but you watched anyway cause yano... fun content :D
Cool shoes. Looks interesting!
“They were the dumbest thing I have ever seen I just knew I had to get them” spot on.
Nick "bionic man 2.0" Symmonds
Buying these for my next track meet, coach will be impressed
The drone shots are great. The Oregon Project has been posting coverage of their races. They have broken some American records and run some amazing times. Their camera work is... If your team did some technical consulting for them the production quality would be as good as the times.
These look so funnnnn!!! In looks I think of Roller blades & hoola-hoops! Lol 😂
The spring bands need to have some adjustment. It looks like you could have used them a little tighter. You were getting a full smash but could have used a little quicker rebound. Then again, I'm a little high and have no clue how I wondered here. You get my like sir. The crash edits were awesome.
Nick, i looked at google map at Sheldon high school in Eugene, OR. And matched exactly! Yes, that the kinda of fan of yours. Question: how did you get in the field? I have several local high school fields near me, but I need to jump over the fence to get in. They close for COVID.
That first clip... totally looks like how I feel running in my vapor flys
I was seeing old video and it's hard to believe somewhere in the past this guy was starting the race aside of Lekuta Rudisha 😄 I'm still lmao for that previous bionic crash 🤣
Good luck. I will be watching.
Because of paralysis I wear braces that don’t allow me to bend my ankles. I considered getting these to give me a possibility of running again but reviews said they break pretty quickly.
Hi nick😁 doing great
Nick I didn't finish watching the video yet but I saw the shots of your warehouse. I'm curious from a business perspective how much space are you utilizing in the warehouse now compared to when you first moved in and started storing your product there? obviously the goal is to grow and eventually fill it so much that you'll actually need a larger space. But I was just curious seeing how there seemed like there was a lot of space in there now
Also I would argue that you're still a professional athlete because you use your athletics in running your business.
You are the best!!!!!!
Nick=🐐
Nick is so underrated
Rocket boots oughta do it, I’m sure that you tuber that does all the crazy engineering stuff can hook you up.
lets go new episode
Good way to make arm movement take the times down bringing LCD to normal levels bringing times down to best level!
His bionic mile is faster than my regular mile. Thought my 7:29 was decent for an effort but that 6:49 bionic is crushing.
Still decent! Keep up the hard work Justin!!
I’m 14 and my fastest mile ever was 6:05. And I felt like I was about to die after completing it. I’ve never felt so fast in my life. I don’t know how I’m these videos and other videos kids that are younger say that they ran miles in 5 or 4 minutes. They clearly haven’t ran a mile in their life. Running is WAT harder than you think. Especially when the sun is strong. That REALLY slows you down.
@@chainbreaker2362 Kids run 4:45 in my hs
@@chainbreaker2362 Considering the world record for the mile run for HS is within .2 seconds of 4 flat, they are just lying. If they’re saying 5 mins or somewhere in sub 5 and they’re ACTUALLY real cross country competitors, then it makes sense. But to say 4, nope.
Savage running
Your feet are spring loaded-- Lateral arch, Medal Arch and transverse arch. They are ¥our tires and from the rear you cqn see how obviously out of alignment they are. Especially when you drive off of your toes and retract them. What that means is that from the inner attachment at the sit bones, through the adductors, then through the medial popliteal (behind the knee) and down through the medial ankle to final attachment to the metatarsal, (mid-foot) your musculature is TIGHT! It can be extended and balanced in the OFF SEASON by doing a modality called ROLFING. So, your feet are your tires and your knees are your head lights and you want them to focus straight ahead, in the direction that you are going, for efficiency of wear and tear and to minimize fatigue (from having to fight your self to flex and extend. Not to dissuade you, it is not cheap, but you may be able to find one or two people to give you a kind of scholarship or cut rate. This involves a commitment of (7 minimum) to 10, one hour, plus or minus sessions. Each session has to focus on a different part of the bodies "facia" and with your assist can extend and "balance" each segment of the body. They look for an overall balanced line, (up and down) Horizontalized girdles: pelvic, shoulder and cranial girdles (Taking out the tilt and torque, that happens from birth, improper alignment, and or trauma). Look it up, check it out and good luck. The modality is called ROLF or ROLFING and one who does it is a ROLFER.
Nike sees these shoes
1 year later: the spring fly’s ultra bouncy new marathon shoes
Pls like this so nick sees
😂
I don’t see it funny so I will not like
I had a pair of these in 2012 and I used to warm up in them for track practice
