Hey Guys,

Men's Health is having a fitness video contest. Basically it's send in a video of you doing your most challenging excercise. My buddies always tell me I have some crazy routines in the gym so I decided to submit one. Check it out:

Dwreck · 03-19-2007, 09:50 AM

Im impressed Mario!

Reminds me i need to get to the gym before I get an fatter.

Lilit · 03-19-2007, 09:50 AM

Great! You look worthy the prize!!! Forgive my female curiosity, but what for is that thing you were standing on?

CherryLipsRosa · 03-19-2007, 09:51 AM

ok now that is HOT !!!

Brad · 03-19-2007, 09:52 AM

dude, that's crazy. I thought you'd either bail or roll an ankle or something unpleasent like that. Keep up the good work!!!

Sharky · 03-19-2007, 10:03 AM

Thats crazy!

I usually do squats on that with a 45 in each hand to help balance me out. You have great form! I'd break my neck doing that!

Jim_Gunn · 03-19-2007, 10:16 AM

That's an impressive amount of weight to squat, but that looks both dangerous and pointless from a muscle building perspective to do it on that unsteady object. Eventually one will get hurt doing squats on an unsteady object. If you want to work your core, there are plenty of exercises to do that and do it better. I heard of one guy who shattered both of his wrists doing DB presses laying on one of those big balls when it suddenly broke and his back hit the floor.

Now for a safe and practical muscle and strength building challenge I like to strap a ten to twenty pound weight around my waist and do weighted chinups and pullups. Nothing will make your upper body stronger!

emthree · 03-19-2007, 10:20 AM

Damn, never seen legs done like that before.

Yea, looked at the video again and I can see it. my fault.

I'm used to counting more than just a couple plates when I squat... 315 and I'm still warming up

Pointless???? - I got this excercise from buddies of mine who played in the NFL and CFL - so I'd like you to tell that to their strength and conditioning coach that it is pointless. This is just part of my core workout - I'm not saying its for everyone - but honestly I'd get bored doing a regular routine like yours - so if you are happy with yours - great - don't come and knock mine unless you can do it.

GUNNER · 03-19-2007, 10:31 AM

Where do we go to vote for you?!?

I'm not knocking you personally man, but I just see this whole balancing on unsteady objects thing as a gimmicky trend and bad one at that no matter how many trainers and sports professionals might recommend it right now. There are a lot of ways to vary a workout routine to keep it interesting and make the muscles work from different angles. What you did was impressive, I just don't think a person is going to get much out of it from a muscle building perspective. Maybe you increase your sense of balance and there is some usefulness there but it looks like more of a stunt than a practical weight lifting exercise.

SeanE · 03-19-2007, 12:30 PM

Thanks for sharing.

Anyone that has used a Bosu ball knows how difficult those squats are. I had to do bosu ball work for rehab on my knee.
It taxes your legs a lot quicker than normal squats, but without having to do as heavy a weight.

Gunner, you do them one leg at a time don't you? ;)

Jman · 03-19-2007, 12:50 PM

Looking Good Bro Looking Damn Good ;-)

See you in TO soon.

Grand Master T · 03-19-2007, 12:51 PM

Bozena X · 03-19-2007, 01:17 PM

Thats like something a ninja would do, except without the 225 pounds and the squatting part.
