Is this Chris Hemsworth preparing for the third Thor movie?
thesejarsareforfartsonly
I don't know her but I'm proud of her. You really have to try (and fail lol) at this to realize how much skill it takes!
shadowplanet11
Can you say...i want an injury?
MonkeysLoveMe
saw this going differently...
Memgurian
Bad for the knees. On the other hand she's taking Deca°, do...
syntaxxor
What she's doing is working her stabilizers more than her legs....

DEATH BY SNUSNU!

Judging by the size, those are likely both 70 pound kettlebells. Damn.
yomancs
I'm tired just watching her
OddSam93
Damn
MediaMuerte
I couldn't do that in zero gravity.
MrHorsea
I don't think people understand how hard this is. Please don't try this unless you are trained to do so.
fishflakes
This is not an exercise you use to get into this kind of shape, this is an exercise you can only do because you are in this kind of shape.

I dont think they make a knee wrap good enough for me to even attempt this... Ill stick with squats.

Lol try to grab her by the pussy...

i was thinking that too, but was to scared to say it hahaha
Choffy
Ah to be young and not have knees that sound like you're popping corn every time you try to get up.
Brightlinger
I train with a 57yo guy who has really loud crackly knees. Still squats 450 for reps to competition depth.
nakedfeet
Is this you, @OP?
FooSystems
I can't even do that with empty hands.
AncientTerror
I can't even watch that with empty hands.
Schwingset
It's actually easier with weight as it shifts your centre of gravity, also never trust the size of kettle bells. Could weigh 5kg each.
Dieminion3
The sheer amount of cracking my knees would make would cripple me physically and emotionally.
Baeloro
I can't even do that with help and grab bars.

This "creative" workouts are just a way to fuck your ligaments while showing off

Says random guy who can't even use grammar properly.
pigletwhisper
That's cool and all, but it really can't be good for your knees whatsoever.
Kahleesi
It actually is very good for you, and extremely difficult. Source: personal trainer married to a physical therapist.
aqueueforyou
I like how you respond with facts and all these hater ass men had to vote down.
Sparru
I don't think you know what the word 'fact' means. Just saying that this is true doesn't make it true.
pigletwhisper
No way? I just figured that going below parallel with the floor would be bad for you. The more you know!
Thedogmatrix
I heard a good quote once that went "if we weren't made to bend that far, why wouldn't evolution stop it?"
Thedogmatrix
These kettle bells are actually only about 25-35lb. We have some just like them at our gym. Nonetheless that's impressive as fuck

Kahleesi
"get ups" are one of the hardest exercises you can do. Not to mention the real life applicability of these.
Postoolio711
Only?
getitupinyou
Only? I bike and hike up mountains, am a fit dude and this looks brutal as fuck.
RCBSUPERMAN
That's not very impressive lol.
doihavetobeclever
You must be a badass.
Jeepsnbuses
Only?
thefeev
I'm pretty sure they're more likely 25kg NOT lbs... so 55lbs each is more like it.
Thedogmatrix
I have the same kettle bells at my gym, they're 35lbs or less
ashleypomeroy
Orly?
thdudedude
Think that weight is pretty standard, if not less, for a lot of female crossfitters. Very impressive.
Thedogmatrix
You are correct, it's normally one 35lb for girls
Manbob456
While I admire the feat, going past a parallel squat is very damaging to your knees. Especially when the leg moves laterally in the end
[deleted]
[deleted]
Manbob456
IMO the lateral movement adds unnecessary shear stress to the ligaments and tendons of her knee. (1/?)
Manbob456
Once her knee starts making an acute angle the SA that the shear stress works on decreases. Ligaments are very weak to shear forces. (2/2)

AHorticulturistIsJustANerdyGardener
1) Debunked, actually. Turns out it's the sheering forces of leg extensions that were destroying knees in the gym.
Manbob456
The leg extension creates sheer on the ACL/PCL...
Manbob456
This isn't a squat. Also I'm just saying from a biomechanics perspective that going as far as she did may harm her mcl/lcl or meniscus.
mj96xx
wait are leg extensions bad ?? (i'm new to the gym and do them sometimes)
AHorticulturistIsJustANerdyGardener
2) Athlene-X is good youtube channel for this stuff. If I was still gymming I'd check out his vids.
AHorticulturistIsJustANerdyGardener
Not horrific in a "your leg will explode" kind of way. Just bad for the joint and there's no reason to isolate the quads like that.
UncleJohnsBand
I can feel the screws holding my knee together popping and grinding just watching this.
oforfs
The ones in my femoral neck can totally relate to that.
holdfireblondie
I have screws in both knees too! 10 years out and I still panic at metal detectors lol
theappsucks
Same. Screws and a plate. Shits all blown out again, too and needs reworked. This makes me cringe.
tehtaxidriver
My knee still can't straighten out, but I can imagine my quads wouldn't like this workout
clairemarie91
What happened your knee? I broke my femur and they opted not to put in pins. I think I would have fared better with pins
UncleJohnsBand
Broke my leg in 7 places it accordioned under the front seat. Foots still turned out @ 45º >. Recovered and tore my ACL in football.
clairemarie91
Holy crap. Please mind yourself. That sounds horrific

1 guy died and I almost did 2. It was his 3rd DUI (we didn't know). We were yelling for him to pull over, before the wreck. He did 15 yrs.
UncleJohnsBand
I was too drunk to drive so I called for a ride, the guy who picked us up blew a .22 after hitting a pole at 80. It was horrible. Don't D&D
clairemarie91
Aw man that's awful. I'm so sorry, my broken femur is suddenly not so bad!! Good luck with your recovery!

I can't even high bar squat without my knees feeling iffy. This scares me.

No no that feels nice. Keep going.
gadgetice
He knew what he was doing. People are extraordinarily aware of their sense of touch. I'm just confused why the hell he did that lol
ebongo91
Her feet are straight and spine looks neutral. Proper form should prevent injury
iamthegrayone
Her knees aren't over her feet when she starts the lift.
[deleted]
[deleted]
CaptainPicardsflute
She is losing the "spring tension" of the lift and therefore shifting the shear force from her quads (good) to her knee joints (bad).
[deleted]
[deleted]
Whakapapa
No, not if your form is as good as hers
ilikefoodmorethanpeople
Not really, if it's the joint's intended direction, Oly lifters squat bellow parallel all the time
SnackMasterRanger
Good to know
Orb99
Right? Looks Hella unsafe for those ACLs
jimmyandtheslimburger
I don't think you know how acls work
doihavetobeclever
Enlighten us.
jimmyandtheslimburger
They keep your leg from hyper extending, doesn't look like her legs are in any danger of that
MadamPuddifoot
That's actually false, too. They prevent anterior translation of the tibia on the femur.
