480 Push ups and current world record. 16 rounds. No cheating by resting on elbows at the bottom. / sh0nhenry Music Credit: Flower - Moby #fitness #calisthenics #military #bodybuilding #mindset
This video has motivated me to get off my lazy butt and start doing pushups. Thank you for the inspiration! I've subscribed to your channel and can't wait to see more. Keep up the great work!
Great work man! Can't wait to see what you've got for us next with the plank. Keep it up, you might not see it yet yourself but you're doing extraordinary things
Good for you Shon. Now make your avatar a picture of your face. Not a grumpy one like mine though. Put Sally Up into the thumbnail maybe? Also, what about doing it as a live stream where people are encouraged to join in?
Leg lifts? you mean lying on the ground, or hanging from a bar? Lying on the ground would bore me, I think I could do it indefinitely, hanging from a bar would be very very very tough just by the exhaustion of grip strength. I will upload a video soon of me doing the sally up challenge using the ab wheel from a standing position, that is my next goal.
@@Sh0n0 Lying down, legs from six inches to vertical. I think the YT record for this is 500 non stop. Or try just holding at 6 inches as an isometric hold till failure. Think men's record for that on YT is 10 minutes. You have to have incredibly tough abs to hold the pushup position as long as you do. And just plain GUTS to keep going that long. Impressive endurance!!
it’s a mental thing. But you have to dig really deep, find something that pisses you off for example, and use that for grit & motivation. Then work, bit by bit, it takes time. For example the first few times one tries the Sally up challenge they will likely fail, which is normal. So first try to complete it once, then the brain becomes stronger/accustomed to the pain. Then do it twice, three times, four times and so on. I really ‘broke through’ once I could do it 7 times. After that point the limitations were no longer physical but mental, and if I commited in my mind to doing it 16 times, I was able to. Good luck and keep working hard, no limits!
@@Sh0n0 thank you! Currently I fail at 1:33 which means I will have to work a lot...how many times per week would you recommend to do it? And also how much time did it take you to get to that point? Just wondering I'm not trying to compare myself to you
@@AChannel-pl7hu when you fail at 1:33 what does your body/brain tell you? Is it because of pain or is your body literally shaking/unable to push through it? If it’s just pain just take a mental pause and try and endure it a bit more, you will surprise yourself. I did it about once a week when I was training for it. It’s a painful exercise so I didn’t kill myself doing it multiple times a week and end up hating myself lol 😂
@@Sh0n0 I can push myself up after the second long holding but not in a good form so I just try to hold it to the end and I feel it mostly in my shoulders I can handle the pain cause I'm strong mentally but my body couldn't seem to keep pushing anymore
@@AChannel-pl7hu i see. Good answer, you seem to have knowledge of your limits. If you scour people attempting the song on the internet and failing, 99% of the time they mentally quit. The mind always quits before the body, always. Mental strength can be trained, the brain remembers how to be resilient, which is why people who face hard things and survive have a deeper ‘reservoir’ of will to pull from. Keep training and keep pushing and keep getting stronger, and when you want to quit try to keep pushing because thats when the mind starts to get stronger.
Thanks for your comment. I kept the tension on my chest the entire workout, jerking up and down trying to match the tempo perfectly would’ve probably torn a muscle. Certainly felt that way.
Very inspiring bro!
Well done!

Thank you for your suggestions Andy. Many things to consider haha
You must have really tough abs to hold plank that long. How about trying Sally to leg lifts for max number of times?

How did you train to that level?

Pretty impressive but you are not in the down position for "lift and squat got to tear the ground" for the 3 - 4 seconds.

I appreciate the critique and comment though. I am now working towards the plank record which is more straightforward with no room for error.
@@Sh0n0 do the joe cristopher form, it is easier
