Until you've mastered this, don't try The Most 105kg Jerk or The Most 140kg Jerk.

The Look, Ma, No Hands!

An advanced variation of the Egyptian Crane Kick.

The only rowboat which travels weight instead of distance.

The I Can't Hear You

One rep is pretty much all you need here.

The Donut Hole

Because imagine a 1kg donut. Seriously.

The Entrapment
