Dude, the day I saw my first episode of DBZ was the day I pestered the ever-loving shit out of my mother to buy me a weight vest from Wal-Mart so I could start training like that. I reasoned that I could do negatives with the weight vest (ended up getting ankle and wrist weights soon after as well) and trained calisthenics like that for at least a couple months. Took off the weights and did 10 chin-ups on my first try. It was anime come to life. Of course, I also jacked up my knees doing kicks with ankle weights on and developed some bad tendonitis in my zealotry, but it was still awesome.
Punching or kicking with too much weight kinda pulls joints into hyperextension and beats on the ligaments. It also actually forces your body to decelerate too soon, unless you're punching UP. Would have made more sense if Goku boxed in a pool like Rocky Marciano instead of wearing those wristweights
@@uexkeru And that is EXACTLY what happened lol. It all started innocently enough, but I was a teenager and "slow and steady" went out the window and I started snapping kicks. Squatting down sounded like bubble wrap for a while, but I healed once I stopped and followed a PT regimen. I later questioned the purpose of using weights when punching. I mean, the whole point is to punch faster, overcome resistance, etc. Therefore, I needed to apply resistance from behind on my punches so I have to fight resistance pulling my arm back. Wrist weights pushed my arms down, so the best I got out of that was ripped delts and keeping my hands up.
When I was younger I couldn't afford a vest or ankle weights so I took some old chains, cleaned them up, painted them, and then cut them so they would fit like a belt, backpack, and ankle weights around my body. I was hesitant to do explosive movements because I was scared i might hurt my bones. However after a week I noticed HUGE strength and muscle gains. I did stop after a while because my hip, ankles, and collar bone began to hurt.
My chains totaled 35ish pounds. The heavest piece was the belt, near my center of mass. I only wore them for exersice on certain days performing basic and simple calisthenics movement to avoid injury.
@@taotaopai1136 I am able to do arm curls with 50 lbs dumbbells, weighted squats and bench press more than 150 lbs, and 20 pull ups. I am able to lift more than I normally would. Still a work in progress but I am getting there.
3:00 it's good you addressed this because a lot of people will read a study and come to the wrong conclusion because of the context surrounding it. variables such as sample size, time in the study, the subjects' prior "level" (beginner or advanced, and stuff like that), and also what the study itself was even looking for since that is very important (and I know some people don't even look at that)

With the rope climb and the rings and the space efficiency Im seeing from that setup, I now know that I am missing that from my home gym setup and that I am missing that type of training in my life. Thats real strength training. Also the weighted vest and wrist and ankle weights for that training has me now finally truly needing them. I used to run with them before so Im familiar with its benefits but it just didnt really have a place in my training until now. Subscribed.
My grandma had ankle weights when I was a kid. I would wear them for days straight, even sleep in them when I went to visit. I would sprint and do kicks just like goku. Don’t know if it helped today but it was where my love for training started
being as I am over 60 yrs old, wearing a weighted vest for a couple hours a day would help build/maintain bone mass; and yes it would also help with muscles, but I would primarily use one for my bone health. Good video. Thanks!
The hyperbolic time chamber gravity training reminds me alot of the internal martial methods. In high gravity one would have to be aware of every mirco movement. Mr. Pool referenced this on the 1st meeting while doing a slow motion floating backflip.😃

I need to start hitting the weighted calisthenics again. I've hit the wall on unweighted reps. There comes a point where more volume alone won't even get you to more reps. Also I have a simple system for weight vs unweighted: Running etc: unweighted and do it on trails if you can. Soft landing. Run quietly too. Walking: farmer's walks 4 life Jumps: ninja quiet. Mix step downs with forward depth jumps. Don't jump backwards off a box much. Get full hip extension, it's all about that spirited neuro explosion. Striking: no heavier than by boxing gloves. Calisthenics: weight that shit when you can. Simply better that way And DBZ is simply an essential preworkout. Anime is the secret to gains
You have three options with calisthenics, which is reason fuckin' five million why I love callisthenics and gymnastics training: You can add weight, which will work absolutely fine. Or, you can move on to more difficult variations by decreasing your leverage, like working up to one-arm variations. Or fuck it, do both. I go through phases where I wanna learn more difficult moves, then I wanna add weight, and so on.
Weigted vest is awesome tool. I am using it especially for running and push ups. For pull ups I like to use weight belt on which I put my kettlebells. I feel more comfortable
Climber Tom Randall trained for a year where he would add any weight he lost while training. When he went to climb his route he said his body had a hard time performing with the different body weight and it didn't quite work how he wanted it to.
I was just thinking of visiting this channel a while ago to check if there are any new vids or old ones I haven't watched. Then all of a sudden a new video has been uploaded.. nice
This is one reason I want a fully realized space station. Gravity provided by centrifugal force could simply be dialed up, thus providing evenly distributed increased weight. Naturally, this can be done on earth, but the amount of power and maintenance required to keep it up would be the biggest challenge.
I served in the US Navy, on an aircraft carrier, and I spent the entire deployment in the gym (when I wasn't working). The coolest aspect of training onboard a ship is how the listing of the ship affects the weight. One minute the weight is light as a feather and the next minute it feels twice as heavy as is should. I really those experiences.
@@BradleyCTurner yes... I'm hyper gravity training right now (I'm fat). Can't wait in a year when I weigh 50lbs lighter and can rock out some pull ups like when I was younger

I used weight vests or hip belts for a long time for pull ups, push ups, dips, etc... Overtime it fucked up my coordination, muscle balance, and joints. It's just way too easy for larger muscles to take on the brunt of the work while smaller muscles stay dormant. I got pretty big and did some cool shit I never thought I'd be able to do like 100 lb pull ups, but in the long run it wasn't worth it. If you're going to do this kind of training my advice is to use extremely strict form. For instance, just because your chin goes over the bar doesn't mean you did a good pull up. Try using an eccentric isometric protocol (i.e. for pull ups: 1 - 3 seconds of isometric holds at the end of the movement and 3 - 5 seconds lowering all the way down to straight arms). Don't be too concerned with perpetual progressive overload. Stay with one weight until you've mastered it. Joints and tendons grow slower than muscles anyway so just because you can move up in weight doesn't mean you should. Also, I've seen a lot of people argue it's healthier for joints and tendons to not lock arms on pull ups, push ups, etc... If you have a preexisting injury then sure, otherwise use the fullest range of motion you can and try to extend that range over time. Letting your joints and tendons carry weight is how they become stronger. Look at male gymnasts if you don't believe me. Just my advice. Take it or leave it. ✌
I trained like this for a few years. Beat my joints up bad.... I started running at 300 pounds then added weight as I lost weight. I had 100 pounds on me almost all day. I did get down to 200 pounds of muscle and little fat.
Weighted calisthenics is extremely effective. I plateaued at 10 pull ups at some point for months (I don't what was happening to my body) and I started doing weighted pull ups with 10 pounds to break plateau , then with 15 pounds and so on. It's been 6 months since then and I can now do pull ups with +70 pounds and chin ups with +80 pounds for reps and I've just achieved one arm chin up a couple days ago and I tested my max pull ups in a set and I just realized that I can do 24 pull ups in a row without having ever trained for endurance which is insane , and I now feel like Goku haha. Definitely the best decision
Like the idea of being able to burn more calories with just wearing the weight vest! It would be interesting if you could wear it all day and see how many calories extra you burn than in a normal day.
Just today, I managed to keep my 29 kg (~64 lbs) weighted vest on me for 7 hours straight (previous record was 2.5h). I'm sure I could keep it on even longer, but I'm getting worried about the skin on the top of my shoulders, since it's where nearly all of the weight is pressing down. By the end of those 7h, my shoulder skin looked like it had a moderate sunburn and felt very similar. After I put on some creme and let it sit for about 4h, the irritation is gone now, but I'm not sure my goal of keeping it on the entire day is a particularly good idea anymore. I might need a different vest - one that has large straps around the torso like the one in this video - to safely do what I intend to do. I wonder if there's some sort of addon I could buy/make to anchor it to my torso without buying a new vest... hmm. Alternatively, perhaps I might get a vest like Adam's and, as a bonus, slap on mine on top of that one and walk around with 59 kg (130 lbs) of added weight. Now that does sound appealing to me! Ofc, it would only be for training, as the added weight would just make the skin irritation worse. Plus, I already worry about my gaming chair, adding another vest might just break the poor thing.
I’d definitely like to see you try going for wearing a weighted vest and possible ankle weights for a few days in a row, then report your results/findings. When I worked retail, I used to wear ankle weights all the time when I was geeking out on DBZ. I remember it felt quite dangerous climbing up ladders that way to reach boxes of inventory on the top racks - but *gainz* , am I right?
I fucking love your channel I've improved my workouts from alot of your content. I was hoping you had anything on clean and healthiest protein supplements to add on occasion to a healthy diet.
While I cant afford it, I found that there are products that can help distribute weight evenly across one's body. Weighted shoes, weighted gloves, helmets, weighted thigh/glute things, and weighted shin guards(which will be needed for forearms as well). I did the math for what I weighed at the time (180) and general percentage of weight for each body part and figured I could get myself to train under 2 times my body weight, distributed evenly. Total cost of all that equipment was around 2000$ when I did the math (2013/2014). I also looked into how it would effect equilibrium and surmised that 1hour a day, 2-3 days a week with every 4th week off doing "bodyweight" exercises in a slow build towards stronger/faster would garner the best results and not crash the immune system. If you could actually find a way to gather all of the equipment and try it out, that would make for an amazing video. Especially if you do it for a couple of months and record your stats.
Look up a product called “body togs.” It’s a weighted compression sleeve for your forearms and/or legs. The company went out of business, probably due to them marketing them as a “wear under your clothes all day” option... but they are amazing for training. They cling to you, and aren’t bulky like other arm/leg weight. I got a full set off eBay, and use them during martial arts training and other HIIT workout.
Gravity training is why I gluttonied myself to massive overweight. Then I noticed I am weak and lazy. But maybe I still have a tip: the Bioneer is the first Internet fitness guy who mentions metabolic stress and the option to turn your weight training into cardio training. I think that is a great option, if you have a Garmin watch, you can even have an assessment as it shows an aerobic and anaerobic score after training. I have a training that can yield up to 2.8/2.8 aerobic/anaerobic score, having an average HR of a medium-paced run; basic idea is doing two exercises per cycle that utilite different muscle groups, for example you do pull-ups each three minutes but instead of resting between the pull-ups, just do push-ups or bench pressing; while I am resting the dumbbell curls, I do reverse lunges; while I am resting for dumbbell bench pressing I do biceps curls with a Z-Curl; while I am resting for Pallof Press I am doing front pushes and so on. Each of those exercises (except the pressing stuff) alone is sufficient to bring your HR up and if you even combine them, you get to a breathing level like running at some time.
I haven't tried a weighted vest yet but I do occasionally put on my SCUBA weight belt for some exercises......works good for pull ups, jumping, .......
I added weighted exercises to my routine and I’m already seeing some slight benefits over a week; I’m going to do the same exercises with the weighted vest for a few more weeks then do a workout with the same exercises and see how it feels unloaded. Gonna be interesting.
I haven't known what happened untill i saw this video, i was shadow boxing with 2.2lbs(1kg) dumbells for the same 4 combination for 50 reps and i stopped and my body was telling me go, go, go!!! Then i started punching i cant even see my hand, i mean it was like god speed. Then i showed it to my family they were what? How did you? For me it was like 1.5x my true speed
In addition to the balance issues ive read that you can suffer a pseudo gravity sickness from wearing too much weight for extended periods. The subjects in the article wore well balanced weight which increased them to extra weights from +50% to +75% and had issues like headaches, change to eye sight for the duration of the experiment, dangerously low blood sugar levels without working out and increased blood pressure for a while AFTER the weights were removed. The article did explain its because their brain were fooled into thinking they were actually on a planet with increased gravity and the eyesight thing is interesting because astronauts suffer eye degredation whilst in space. I am interested in trying to add 10-15% to my body though. I did 25% for 3 days and really hurt myself which took days to recover enough from to work out again but I was far from healed.
@@DrewLSsix for modern sensibilities, that's true. But many warriors in the past found it easy enough to move rapidly with practice. As for fit, at least for testing purposes, a compression shirt over the mail would likely help.
Historicaly they were usually custom-fitted, not like the oversized ones you often see on reenactors and in movies. Particularly the higher-end ones that many knights wore, those are quite hard for modern manufacturers to duplicate, the craftsmanship and fit was very good.
In Baguzhang training at the Wudang monestary. The students wear an adjustable body weighted suit, more often their own body weight. I.E. if you weigh 150, then the suit would also be at 150 and they would execute the various palm changes and body rotations.
Yeah, I wouldn't recommend weights for leg work where you leave the ground and come back to the same elevation or lower (jump squats, jumping lunges, broad jumps, burped, etc) I don't see an issue for other leg exercises though, such as stationary lunges, box jumps (since the weight is already off your knees when you reach the goal elevation and the force will be applied more to your muscles than a drastic shock to the knees)
I don't have a weighted vest but I recently tried heavy cluster sets of weighted pull ups just before a few straight sets of unweighted pull ups. I got a lot more reps of unweighted pull ups than I usually do. Now I do at least one or two weighted pull ups as a warm up even when I'm not doing that heavy cluster set first.
if you don't train for high reps, you will not do more reps. that is what i learnd. i was doing 20 pull-ups unweighted full range of motion, and started doing weighted pull-ups with just 20 kg. now am doing weighted with 45kg, and i can't do 18 reps unweighted . i trained so much the fast twitch fibers, that the slow twitch lost their mitochondrial density and numbers. sad
my training was 50% sets of 3-5 reps , & 50% sets of 20+ reps.i experimented with my reps.even when i was doing only lightweight 20+ reps, my one rep max increased as well as my endurance.but when i was doing only heavy, only my power increased end endurance went down. my point is that higher reps training is more useful for both strength and endurance than doing 50-50 or doing 100% strength training.
I think there may be more potential for building strength in these sorts of exercises than in ordinary weight training. I never got my bench much above 300lb, but one summer, basically on a whim, I worked up to doing sets of 20 dips with 100lb hanging from my waste. This was as a 215lb man, no less.
There is a company called titan that makes weighted clothes with gel pads so the weight is comfortable and evenly distributed. Only thing is how much you can add is limited
Yes, we want you to do that experiment ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ On the other hand, i did it with ankle weights when i was 15 to 17... While training in soo bahk do... It had 3 effects... First, my footwork and kicks while out of ankle weights(in the dojang, school or tournaments... Any other time i was using them and doing parkour and kicks) were way faster... To the point that i had to learn to control them again... Second, it was an impresive self confidence boosting tool... And last... It fucked up my kneed on the long run... Nothing too bad... Just got them in a weird angle... Now i cant touch my butt with my heels because the knees are a bit twidted and the heels go to the side when i try to go stright up, so, the heel ends up beside my hip... This does however mean that my side kicks are about 1 inch higher because of the angle of my legs...

It's been 6 months since then and I can now do pull ups with +70 pounds and chin ups with +80 pounds for reps and I've just achieved one arm chin up a couple days ago and I tested my max pull ups in a set and I just realized that I can do 24 pull ups in a row without having ever trained for endurance which is insane , and I now feel like Goku haha. Definitely the best decision
Like the idea of being able to burn more calories with just wearing the weight vest! It would be interesting if you could wear it all day and see how many calories extra you burn than in a normal day.
Loved the video! What about your new book? Can't wait to read it!
Just today, I managed to keep my 29 kg (~64 lbs) weighted vest on me for 7 hours straight (previous record was 2.5h). I'm sure I could keep it on even longer, but I'm getting worried about the skin on the top of my shoulders, since it's where nearly all of the weight is pressing down. By the end of those 7h, my shoulder skin looked like it had a moderate sunburn and felt very similar. After I put on some creme and let it sit for about 4h, the irritation is gone now, but I'm not sure my goal of keeping it on the entire day is a particularly good idea anymore.
I might need a different vest - one that has large straps around the torso like the one in this video - to safely do what I intend to do. I wonder if there's some sort of addon I could buy/make to anchor it to my torso without buying a new vest... hmm.
Alternatively, perhaps I might get a vest like Adam's and, as a bonus, slap on mine on top of that one and walk around with 59 kg (130 lbs) of added weight. Now that does sound appealing to me! Ofc, it would only be for training, as the added weight would just make the skin irritation worse. Plus, I already worry about my gaming chair, adding another vest might just break the poor thing.
Ok next can you tell me to initiate the power of my stand in training.

I’d definitely like to see you try going for wearing a weighted vest and possible ankle weights for a few days in a row, then report your results/findings.
When I worked retail, I used to wear ankle weights all the time when I was geeking out on DBZ. I remember it felt quite dangerous climbing up ladders that way to reach boxes of inventory on the top racks - but *gainz* , am I right?
I fucking love your channel I've improved my workouts from alot of your content. I was hoping you had anything on clean and healthiest protein supplements to add on occasion to a healthy diet.
While I cant afford it, I found that there are products that can help distribute weight evenly across one's body. Weighted shoes, weighted gloves, helmets, weighted thigh/glute things, and weighted shin guards(which will be needed for forearms as well). I did the math for what I weighed at the time (180) and general percentage of weight for each body part and figured I could get myself to train under 2 times my body weight, distributed evenly. Total cost of all that equipment was around 2000$ when I did the math (2013/2014). I also looked into how it would effect equilibrium and surmised that 1hour a day, 2-3 days a week with every 4th week off doing "bodyweight" exercises in a slow build towards stronger/faster would garner the best results and not crash the immune system. If you could actually find a way to gather all of the equipment and try it out, that would make for an amazing video. Especially if you do it for a couple of months and record your stats.
Weighted vests are like a physical reset button, great way to humble yourself
New to rucking. Love it!
Great informative video!
LOVE this topic
do a whole day ! love to see that 🤘
Look up a product called “body togs.” It’s a weighted compression sleeve for your forearms and/or legs. The company went out of business, probably due to them marketing them as a “wear under your clothes all day” option... but they are amazing for training. They cling to you, and aren’t bulky like other arm/leg weight. I got a full set off eBay, and use them during martial arts training and other HIIT workout.
Great video
Gravity training is why I gluttonied myself to massive overweight. Then I noticed I am weak and lazy. But maybe I still have a tip: the Bioneer is the first Internet fitness guy who mentions metabolic stress and the option to turn your weight training into cardio training. I think that is a great option, if you have a Garmin watch, you can even have an assessment as it shows an aerobic and anaerobic score after training. I have a training that can yield up to 2.8/2.8 aerobic/anaerobic score, having an average HR of a medium-paced run; basic idea is doing two exercises per cycle that utilite different muscle groups, for example you do pull-ups each three minutes but instead of resting between the pull-ups, just do push-ups or bench pressing; while I am resting the dumbbell curls, I do reverse lunges; while I am resting for dumbbell bench pressing I do biceps curls with a Z-Curl; while I am resting for Pallof Press I am doing front pushes and so on. Each of those exercises (except the pressing stuff) alone is sufficient to bring your HR up and if you even combine them, you get to a breathing level like running at some time.
I haven't tried a weighted vest yet but I do occasionally put on my SCUBA weight belt for some exercises......works good for pull ups, jumping, .......
I added weighted exercises to my routine and I’m already seeing some slight benefits over a week; I’m going to do the same exercises with the weighted vest for a few more weeks then do a workout with the same exercises and see how it feels unloaded. Gonna be interesting.
Suggestion: video about the most effective warm-up based on papers
I haven't known what happened untill i saw this video, i was shadow boxing with 2.2lbs(1kg) dumbells for the same 4 combination for 50 reps and i stopped and my body was telling me go, go, go!!! Then i started punching i cant even see my hand, i mean it was like god speed. Then i showed it to my family they were what? How did you?
For me it was like 1.5x my true speed
I'm 6'10ft 250 pounds. Every other day I walk around with a 150 pound vest. It definitely helps with strength
150 pounds? Wow
You taking steroids?
Is that custom made?
Agree there was 2 years ago i did basic chins/pulls dips on rings i also did find that it made me more explosive in other things
So, gravity room mark 1... Get a sky diving training room and flip it upside down. 🤔 Turn the fan on high and do some pushups. 👌
Dope video !!!!!
In addition to the balance issues ive read that you can suffer a pseudo gravity sickness from wearing too much weight for extended periods. The subjects in the article wore well balanced weight which increased them to extra weights from +50% to +75% and had issues like headaches, change to eye sight for the duration of the experiment, dangerously low blood sugar levels without working out and increased blood pressure for a while AFTER the weights were removed.
The article did explain its because their brain were fooled into thinking they were actually on a planet with increased gravity and the eyesight thing is interesting because astronauts suffer eye degredation whilst in space. I am interested in trying to add 10-15% to my body though. I did 25% for 3 days and really hurt myself which took days to recover enough from to work out again but I was far from healed.
Why not a chainmail shirt? It might distribute the weight more effectively.
Not adjustable and not usually well fitted for rapid movement.
@@DrewLSsix for modern sensibilities, that's true. But many warriors in the past found it easy enough to move rapidly with practice. As for fit, at least for testing purposes, a compression shirt over the mail would likely help.
Shoutouts to Cody’s lab
I read "chainmail SKIRT" I thought, well if that's your thing. lol
Historicaly they were usually custom-fitted, not like the oversized ones you often see on reenactors and in movies. Particularly the higher-end ones that many knights wore, those are quite hard for modern manufacturers to duplicate, the craftsmanship and fit was very good.
In Baguzhang training at the Wudang monestary. The students wear an adjustable body weighted suit, more often their own body weight. I.E. if you weigh 150, then the suit would also be at 150 and they would execute the various palm changes and body rotations.
you should try going a week with a vest on and maybe some other things on as well
I wondered about wearing chain mail every other day. It should be fairly evenly distributed. I'd still be cautious about the knees.
Yeah, I wouldn't recommend weights for leg work where you leave the ground and come back to the same elevation or lower (jump squats, jumping lunges, broad jumps, burped, etc) I don't see an issue for other leg exercises though, such as stationary lunges, box jumps (since the weight is already off your knees when you reach the goal elevation and the force will be applied more to your muscles than a drastic shock to the knees)
great job
I wanna get a weighted vest soon/ maybe even some weights to go around my leg, and start working out with it over a long course of time
Weighted calisthenics change my game!
👑
I always love your DBZ references. Team Vegeta all the way!
I was wondering when another video was coming out.
Please a video on Sabertooth workout
I don't have a weighted vest but I recently tried heavy cluster sets of weighted pull ups just before a few straight sets of unweighted pull ups. I got a lot more reps of unweighted pull ups than I usually do. Now I do at least one or two weighted pull ups as a warm up even when I'm not doing that heavy cluster set first.
If you combine weighted jumping with squats and deadlifts your jump height definitely improves.
Is this what Deontay Wilder was thinking with that horrible armoured suit he wore into the ring against Tyson Fury?
if you don't train for high reps, you will not do more reps. that is what i learnd. i was doing 20 pull-ups unweighted full range of motion, and started doing weighted pull-ups with just 20 kg. now am doing weighted with 45kg, and i can't do 18 reps unweighted . i trained so much the fast twitch fibers, that the slow twitch lost their mitochondrial density and numbers. sad
Or you simply didn't keep maintaining your muscular endurance while training for strength. You are not a video game character.
my training was 50% sets of 3-5 reps , & 50% sets of 20+ reps.i experimented with my reps.even when i was doing only lightweight 20+ reps, my one rep max increased as well as my endurance.but when i was doing only heavy, only my power increased end endurance went down.
my point is that higher reps training is more useful for both strength and endurance than doing 50-50 or doing 100% strength training.
@@konnor9577 Now I agree. But if your only goal is maximal strength and you don't care about endurance, weighted would be your pick.
I think there may be more potential for building strength in these sorts of exercises than in ordinary weight training. I never got my bench much above 300lb, but one summer, basically on a whim, I worked up to doing sets of 20 dips with 100lb hanging from my waste. This was as a 215lb man, no less.
When is the "Assassins Creed" Training Video coming you spoke of couple of weeks ago?
I used to tie a resistance band around my legs.
I swear every UK UA-camr has the same back porch lol
Got me thinking about weighted swimming and ellipticals because joints
There is a company called titan that makes weighted clothes with gel pads so the weight is comfortable and evenly distributed. Only thing is how much you can add is limited
i love goku let's gooooo !
could you please do a video on black widow training physical and intelligence please?
Yes, we want you to do that experiment ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
On the other hand, i did it with ankle weights when i was 15 to 17... While training in soo bahk do... It had 3 effects... First, my footwork and kicks while out of ankle weights(in the dojang, school or tournaments... Any other time i was using them and doing parkour and kicks) were way faster... To the point that i had to learn to control them again... Second, it was an impresive self confidence boosting tool... And last... It fucked up my kneed on the long run... Nothing too bad... Just got them in a weird angle... Now i cant touch my butt with my heels because the knees are a bit twidted and the heels go to the side when i try to go stright up, so, the heel ends up beside my hip... This does however mean that my side kicks are about 1 inch higher because of the angle of my legs...

Weighted back pack and vest and offset carry at least 2 miles.
This video makes me wanna get a weighted vest when working out it's gonna make me powerful 🤣🤣💪💯
So wearing an IOTV(plate carrier body armor) will make me a super hero? Check been doing that for years.
So are you a superhero by violating innocent people's natural law rights abroad or here in Amerika fucking over your own neighbors?
ftnwo Shut up pussy. You have no idea what is really going on.
@@ftnwo7829 i have a watch that turns people into snakes.
Ahhh yes, weighted vests while gaming. Great idea. I'm gonna be ripped!! Lol
The secrete to the five rings is its named after the training equipment
I just got myself a vest. I’m going to start wearing it casually around the house.
Do you still do it?
Thia man is a superhero
Which vest do you use personally, and which would you recommend? I would like something adjustable.
Wearing weighted vests may also help in fighting anxiety, similar as in the use of weighted blankets in bed.
Job Bouwman ...fighting Anxiety? ...how? I'm intrigued!
Really? Explain please
What we all really wanna see is Adam powering up and screaming for an entire episode like in the anime... 🤣😅
