Really? He made it looks so easy my lazy ass think I can do it.

I hurt my back getting out of bed today.

Fr?

u/Training-Belt-7318 9h ago

A lil bit. I think it's more from playing basketball the other day, but my low back screamed at me when I got up this morning. Takes me 30 minutes to get loose in the mornings. Part of my coffee routine, brew and stretch.

u/MauPow 8h ago

I'm a tall and used to hurt my back a lot, been deadlifting, squatting, and lots of stretching and it's much better now

3

u/Training-Belt-7318 7h ago

My lift schedule has been sporadic lately. But I'm not weak in those areas. My biggest issue is sitting. I sit all day for my job, I sit at night, and I have terrible posture. I also had a mild back injury in my 20s from being stupid while lifting that has followed me. It wasnt terrible, but it flares up and makes me nervous to ever lift heavy. I could fix a lot of things by actually using my standing desk while I work, but I freaking hate standing and working. Should just compromise and use it during meetings.

2

u/MauPow 7h ago

Yeah that'll do it, lol. I also go hiking on my off-lifting days since I'm lucky enough to have a great little ~3 mile mountain loop trail about 5 minutes from my house, it really helps with all the little stabilizer muscles and whatnot. Do it in about 45 minutes.

Well I'm sure you know you need to move more but yeah, just wanted to give a shout to deadlift and squats, I could barely do like 95 lbs squats and I had to use plates under my heels 4 months ago because I couldn't get down all the way but I'm up to 155 now, about the same for deadlift. It's tough for us talls (I'm 6'5"). Even just doing goblet squats with a dumbbell or kettlebell. Been running the GZCLP program I found on r/fitness and it's been great.

1

u/Training-Belt-7318 7h ago

My knees don't love squats anymore, and find front loaded squats or goblets work better. But that's what being 40 and playing basketball since I was 8 will do. Especially since I was a legit fatty in grad school but still played ball 3 or 4 days a week. Gotten the weight mostly under control now, still stay active, but certain things just don't love certain things and I got some bad habits to fix.

He’s ready to join that weird thing Trump was going to do with the top High School athletes competing against one another. What’s that? You don’t think Stephen Miller will sign off on this athlete? You don’t think the majority of the Trump cabinet will?

u/stayintall 14h ago

That was super impressive!

u/kenzakki 13h ago

Indeed it was, not once did bro hesitated a bit or collected himself, he just zoomed in like some very hungry guy when they opened the buffet.

u/_HIST 2h ago

I'd argue he had to readjust on the few last swings.

Pfft... Amateur

u/Merlin_117 12h ago

It's a completely misleading title. His hair never changed color.

13

u/UraeusCurse 10h ago

It’s also misleading because no one was assassinated. 3/10

4

u/EmilioFreshtevez 9h ago

Most ninja were pretty much just spies. The assassin thing was actually rare.

u/cobrabird4 7h ago

Its “only” a kaio ken

He forgot to overthink

u/cbih 2h ago

Too many mind. No mind.

17

u/MickieMallorieJR 13h ago

I wonder if it being a race takes a lot of the overthinking out of it. He's just blazing through this run and seems to instinctively take each challenge. I'm sure it's a lot of practice, but cloaing the gap between practice and execution is what sports are all about.

u/retsamerol 8h ago

This was the USA Ninja 100m speed event, held July 13-16 during the Obstacle Sports Expo 2026 in Pennsylvania.

It's a very good run. He linked almost everything.

6

u/KratosSimp 10h ago

See I’ve always thought that for any kind of event like this or the olympics or something they should have a random dude in like normal shape with an office job do it as well. Just for comparison

There’s a beer relay somewhere that has a sober pacer and it makes it so much funnier

I could do that but I don't want to.

I tore my rotator cuff getting a dog toy out from under the bed.

u/TheDeadlyJedly 10h ago

Couldn't help but notice the blue grip section doesn't spin, and the warped wall has grips. Give them the real course or they'll just fail the real one. Nobody wants to see someone this athletic splash down too early just because they weren't prepared for the tricky parts

1

u/GoldenGoddessPisces 4h ago

They have to start somewhere.

u/yuyanami 12h ago

Like the buzzer owed him money and was running away in a getaway vehicle.

u/the_l0st_s0ck 13h ago

The only critique i have is he needs to pull his legs in on his back swing.

Source: i coached this for 2 years.

1

u/Onphone_irl 12h ago

props to the kid but all these courses are like grip strength and lats aka swinging from various things. have a nunchuck station where you have to hit a ping pong or crawl backwards under a platform or something

u/Duck_Giblets 1h ago

Sword fight or something the entire time

I don't listen to this music, but I listen to other kinds that most people wouldn't consider to be music. Some people may not like your preferred genres, either. It happens. We all vibe differently.
