The guy at the bottom isn't doing 90 degree push-ups. Tut tut.

[–]theonewiththeface 70 points71 points ago

I noticed that, too. However I couldn't do what he's doing; so I'm calling his "close enough" and still being impressed with that guy.

[–]ilanimage 28 points29 points ago

I can't even do a push up, much less one with two people on me, so I am in no spot to criticize either ;)

[–]ambi7ion 15 points16 points ago

How can you not even do a single pushup?

[–]lordlicorice 5 points6 points ago

I can't do a single pushup. I can't even get my chest off the floor. I push as hard as I can for about a second, and then my muscles are strained and I can hardly exert any force at all.

Edit: By the way, I'm not fat. ~160 lbs.

[–]standrightwalkleft 2 points3 points ago

Not to mention the joint pain. My shoulders and elbows feel like they're on fire when I try. Ow!!

[–]seyelenteco 3 points4 points ago

Start doing push-ups with your knees instead of your feet. After a few weeks of doing them you'll be able to do a few normal push-ups.

[–]KuramaSutra 4 points5 points ago

You mean on your knees.

[–]seyelenteco 1 point2 points ago

Heh I wrote On you knees first, but I've been hanging out with guys too much this weekend and immediately thought of all the shit they'd say if I told another guy to start working out on his knees.

[–]KuramaSutra 2 points3 points ago

Hey, guys! I think seyelenteco is gay! He wants other guys to work out by performing homosexual sex.

Haha, gaaaaay.

[–]BROWN_drugs 1 point2 points ago

lower body weight helps with doing push ups, i weigh 130 and can do 50-60 with relatively little upper body strength.

[–]akmjolnir 0 points1 point ago

what?

[–]coleosis1414 1 point2 points ago

It's all about leverage, man. If you have more muscular legs, your center of gravity is lower and all the weight is situated closer to the fulcrum of the lever you're creating with your body.

[–]BROWN_drugs 1 point2 points ago

if you dont weigh a lot its easy to do push ups.. because you dont weigh a lot. 160 lbs isnt a lot.

[–]ilanimage 0 points1 point ago

Ok, maybe I was underexagerating :)

[–]theonewiththeface 9 points10 points ago

Well, we're in that boat together. I have zero upper body strength. If I were ever trapped under something and needed to lift it, I'd be screwed.

[–]logangarvey 5 points6 points ago

Use your ass and legs. That's where the lift power is at.

[–]ilanimage 6 points7 points ago

Well, I'm little, so I could maybe slip out, brut yeah. :)

[–]theonewiththeface 10 points11 points ago

My big o' boobies don't allow for me to slip out of anywhere. I'd be dead.

[–]BourbonBlue 11 points12 points ago

While it's harder for ladies to develop upper body strength it's by no means impossible. With training and time I bet you can put out more pushups then the average male/couch-potato.

[–]Holybasil 8 points9 points ago

That's motivational right there.

[–]FuLLMeTaL604 6 points7 points ago

Not even one?

[–]ilanimage 2 points3 points ago

No more than 10, an not very good ones :D

[–]FuLLMeTaL604 5 points6 points ago

Well, if you wanted to you could improve on that.

[–]Pit_of_Death 2 points3 points ago

Considering those two guys together weigh ~300 lbs at least, I'm gonna have to agree. Quite impressive.

[–]rockoblocko 46 points47 points ago

Ya but look at how many he does...I stopped counting at 48, and he was still going strong.

[–]KungfuDojo 11 points12 points ago

Maybe because it's a looped gif? :P

Are you serious?

[–]ilanimage 2 points3 points ago

Wait, it isn't? Are you sure? Now I feel like a moron.

[–]DTFpanda 2 points3 points ago

...

[–]ilanimage 1 point2 points ago

OH. SARCASM. Arg, it's too early in the morning for sarcasm. I appoligize for my stupidity.

[–]KuramaSutra 0 points1 point ago

Don't delete your comment for future reference, it's considered bad form in Reddit.

We have to get our laughs at your expense first.

[–]ilanimage 0 points1 point ago

Oh. Thanks for the advice! They quoted it anyway.

[–]davaca 2 points3 points ago

On the other hand, the two guys on top have their hands together, which makes pushups a lot harder on the triceps.

[–]MrCorvus 5 points6 points ago

What's a 90 degree push-up? And why is is bad he's not doing it?

[–]isofat 7 points8 points ago

90 degree push-up means going down until your elbows are at 90 degrees. I don't think you can really apply that here when the guy has two people on top of him.

[–]MrCorvus 1 point2 points ago

Thanks :) I hadn't heard that phrase before.

[–]SquashJ 4 points5 points ago

Being that he looks the most ripped, I would say he is doing something right.

[–]mtheoryx 1 point2 points ago

He probably has the best dietary habits out of the three.

[–]TurgidDahlia -1 points0 points ago

fish oil

[–]Greendrivers -1 points0 points ago

Miracle pill imo.

[–]aa93 1 point2 points ago

If he went any deeper he'd smash his face off those big words at the bottom.

[–]-Tommy -1 points0 points ago

I bet he doesn't even lift.

[–]your_pet_is_average 14 points15 points ago

i dont care what any of you say, i wanna be the bottom guy.

[–]its_your_their 25 points26 points ago

There's nothing wrong with being a bottom, friend.

[–]Rebelduck 108 points109 points ago

That guy is actually a military man recovering from a wound, it's not he missed it it's that he probably couldn't walk.

[–]tineyeit 42 points43 points ago

I've heard two different things about who knows this guy. There basically seems to be a Facebook post which just says they know the guy and he's a war vet and another facebook page about him having some disease. Neither had followup posts or anything though.

[–]McCorkill 34 points35 points ago

The conclusion one comes to: Real Life Brock Sampson. http://images.buddytv.com/articles/the-venture-bros/images/brock-samson-2.jpg

[–]dongpal -1 points0 points ago

They just try to make it not look ridiculous.

[–]deputy1389 6 points7 points ago

That was a joke someone made a while back to make a guy on facebook feel bad

[–]MudvayneMW 4 points5 points ago

Ok let's see the proof

[–]MudvayneMW 3 points4 points ago

A facebook comment?

[–]chuck_ 17 points18 points ago

Well, and a couple of other references in the thread. I don't know man :(

[–]militantomg 15 points16 points ago

Whats sad about a dude like this, is if he actually did legs, and more-over, squats, the rest of his body would be exponentially bigger.

[–]bossmanjunior 13 points14 points ago

Downvoted for recommending squats? Jesus what is the world coming to?

[–]listentobillyzane 4 points5 points ago

He forgot to mention oats...

[–]mercimer 1 point2 points ago

You mean oatz

[–]TheSandyRavage 1 point2 points ago

Squoats.

[–]Tree-eeeze 3 points4 points ago

Probably downvoted because:

the rest of his body would be exponentially bigger.

There is no legitimate science that working legs makes the upper body bigger, let alone "exponentially bigger."

There is some minor conjecture that working larger muscle groups likes legs release hormones that will benefit the body elsewhere, but your body won't magically increase muscle mass in the upper body simply because you squat. It's going to react to the stresses imposed on it, simple as that.

[–]wildo421 4 points5 points ago

I like squats as much as the next guy but this really isn't true at all. It is possible to get a very small boost in testosterone, but not enough to really make a difference.

[–]zibzibzib -2 points-1 points ago

Testo isn't the only benefit of squatting. Squatting raises your lactate threshold and cardio allowing you to do more/work harder in all your lifts.

This isn't even debatable—just STFU and SQUAT!!!

[–]wildo421 5 points6 points ago

I squat 405 for triples, don't think I'm pussing out or anything. It just bugs me when people go around spouting off about squats being literally better than steroids.

There is absolutely no way you can convince me that squatting will make your upper body bigger than just working your upper body.

[–]coleosis1414 0 points1 point ago

My worst nightmare ever is shitting myself mid-squat.

[–]wildo421 3 points4 points ago

This is why black coffee is my preworkout beverage of choice. Never fails to get a good BM out of me beforehand.

[–]militantomg -1 points0 points ago

Maybe at the level he's at, it wouldn't make a huge difference. I noticed when I added proper squats to my regimine, my gains started jumping through the roof. Of course YMMV, but like you say, squats are responsible for better T circulation.

[–]justsomeguy2932 1 point2 points ago

Thats bro science, only gain his upper body would get would be a psychological advantage of thinking the weights he was pushing were lighter if hes used to the bigger lifts

[–]wanderingtroglodyte -4 points-3 points ago

Or the increased levels of anabolic hormones released by doing heavy lifts like squats and deadlifts. But yeah, let's go with bro science.

EDIT: Woah. Had not seen those studies, holy crap.

[–]Fishsticks3 3 points4 points ago

increased levels of anabolic hormones released by doing heavy lifts like squats and deadlifts

facepalm

[–]tellmebiologyfacts -1 points0 points ago

I'm told that this guy was recovering from an injury from the military which is why he couldn't work on his legs.

[–]pawlywog 6 points7 points ago

holy shit and i thought i had chicken legs....

[–]here_for_the_lols 94 points95 points ago

You probably do.

[–]EyhSteve 7 points8 points ago

Ha!

[–]moparornocar 1 point2 points ago

I like to call them drum sticks.

[–]benwillmill 47 points48 points ago

I feel bad for the middle guy... looks kind of sexual.

[–]AlvinTheChoster 32 points33 points ago

I feel bad for the bottom guy... has to do the most work.

[–]anonymouscrayon 47 points48 points ago

To be fair he also looks the most jacked.

[–]Khaze 69 points70 points ago

It's almost like they planned it that way or something.

[–]Dr_fish 20 points21 points ago

You mean they didn't just trip and fall on each other like that?

[–]kineo 3 points4 points ago

Don't be ridiculous. Khaze said, "almost". Of course this was accidental, geeze.

[–]mrsammercer 0 points1 point ago

That guy's definitely a power bottom.

[–]Strawcrazyman 41 points42 points ago

He's either having a moderately bad time or an absolutely fantastic time, depending on his preferences.

[–]JHallComics 7 points8 points ago

The neckerchiefs don't help.

[–]its_your_their 5 points6 points ago

Yes, it is only the middle guy that makes this look sexual.

[–]Twilight_Scko -2 points-1 points ago

Honestly, I think they might be brothers. I don't think there is anything sexual about it.

[–]objectifying_men 13 points14 points ago

Level of hotness directly proportional to amount of work involved. Delicious, though I wish they would do this naked. 10/10..would bang..all three...at the same time...etc.

[–]coleosis1414 5 points6 points ago

You're using your username well.

[–]soar 1 point2 points ago

If they were doing this naked it'd be a porn video.

[–]StewartKruger 4 points5 points ago

Ah.. there's no reason to think these guys don't train legs. Looking pretty in proportion to me.

[–]lordlicorice 3 points4 points ago

The bottom guy's toes must be hurting.

[–]mcmunch20 28 points29 points ago

This is pretty homoerotic.

[–]Gwinnny 24 points25 points ago

[–]AeroRandy 12 points13 points ago

What are those scarves for? A fashion statement?

[–]FuckTheCharacterLimi 4 points5 points ago

Homo here, I can confirm that this is erotic.

[–]KookyGuy 19 points20 points ago

What's with "do you even lift" jokes all the sudden? Did I miss something?

Fight him irl, bro

[–]CheezIts_YAY 31 points32 points ago

It's a meme from 4chan that recently died. Let the beating commence!

[–]xyble 32 points33 points ago

Except it's not. It's been a meme on /fit/, bb.com, other weightlifting sites for a while. It's only recently gone mainstream.

[–]CheezIts_YAY 17 points18 points ago

Yeah. That's what I meant when I said that it died. Reddit would never beat a live horse, especially if that horse were a meme.

[–]Greendrivers 0 points1 point ago

Of course not, we love animals. :)

[–]Trapped_SCV 2 points3 points ago

That is how it started.

Than it kind of spread to other boards to make fun of /fit/

[–]reverse_ 9 points10 points ago

reddit was a meme from 4chan that recently died.

[–]CheezIts_YAY -4 points-3 points ago

Touché. You made me laugh.

[–]66xsseldoG -1 points0 points ago

I agreed

[–]phreeck -4 points-3 points ago

I chuckled

[–]Dynamiklol 3 points4 points ago

Regardless of what people say about it being from 4chan, it's primarily used on the misc. You must not be aware.

[–]ambi7ion -1 points0 points ago

It's from /fit/... not fucking misc.

[–]Dynamiklol -2 points-1 points ago

I never claimed that it was from misc, I said it was primarily used there.

[–]random19 2 points3 points ago

no it isn't. But that doesn't matter now, reddit has done it's part in making sure it dies a slow painful dishonorable death. Like it does with every meme

[–]ZippityZoppity 6 points7 points ago

The last guy is doing almost know work at all.

[–]Fellows23 36 points37 points ago

I no

[–]ThatGuyWithAnAccent 11 points12 points ago
