I want a "Shikaizengetsu" if you're selling any 😂. I can pretty compentently swing around a 7lb great axe, so i think I could handle a 20lb sword, especially if its actually balanced properly.

Haha the almost loving way you lay next to the sword the end had me cracking up!

Well, congrats on 62 days of training. I decided to give a sub, to feed the training.

I'm not on instagram. can some please just tell me the name of the intro song?

Ok you got a sub because you are very close

Prolonged use of tools in cold weathers can cause temporary or permanent nerve damage. Keep your training sessions short, and stay warm, kid.

Do you train outside of just techniques? As in lifting for strength and muscle gain and cardio for conditioning. It really seems like you have to build quite a physique in order to swing a sword that big

Have you every just spun with it

Not even 1/3 the size of the real dragon slayer.

"I'm gonna ... uhm ... lay down just for a few minutes." Very relatable.

It seems like in a real fight you'd want to use something lighter like the 20lb warmup sword for maneuverability

ngl this is some anime level dedication, I'm calling it now, someone's gonna make a manga/anime about this story

Good morning hale. Hope you're having a good day.

I do the sledgehammer workout too ☝️ Secret to why ai can thrust then downward slash from the left and right

Anyone ever tell you your taste in music is very nice

Nice work. Did both sides. Even kept it off the ground when doing reps. With the ground being winter, I'd probably focus on static strength, endurance, and stances. Once it's less frozen and slick, do mobility like the challenge you did on 60? Just a strangers thoughts. I like how you're always in the comments. Keep it up bro

all I'm saying is I know where I'm going when the zombie hordes arrive

The muscles required for swinging colossal swords are: 1.) shoulders 2.) forearms 3.) wide bladed stance. Chest, bicep and triceps and abs are for looks 👌

6:15 Im loving it!

9.37k as of now.

will mummy and daddy pay for your physical therapy? Why not learn how to use a real sword or have any type of reasonable technique? This is just self-harm for views. This is just self-harm for views. No, seriously, you need to realize, this is just self-harm for views. stop! grow up!

Need to get yah guy a better mic

Fair enough, ill subscribe

Waiting for one day when you swing 100lbs sword

So dope

You are going to have such insane endurance and speed with Alucard's sword, after all this Dragonslayer swinging!

Cool music at the beginning. If you make these long swords are you going to need to grow your hair out and start fighting cloud? Or will you eventually make clouds 60 lb buster sword?

Don't try to use traditional forms or movements with a heavy weapon. Adapt and modify your movements to give you leverage.

Welp. lost ur chance to put those backdrops I gave you

6:41 looks like I’ve found the final boss in the game of life

On that rotator cuff rupture speed run

Fantastic work! Ive made a replica of the Dragon Slayer before out of wood, but its failure point would always be the connection between the blade and the handle. Making it all from a single piece is such a creative and smart work around that I am 100% going to steal and use for myself! Keep up the amazing work!

Ya got 1/2 the equation, nice job! While moving back a step or two, yank it back and up above your hip then push your hand down and then forward in an arc while then pushing up and forward while you THEN move forward. Pick up a normal weighted sword. Hold it out. Move the handle around quickly without guiding the pointing of the sword with your wrist. See how the point changes where it is despite you not using your wrist, but instead just moving the handle quickly. That's where you can really see what it means to push the fulcrum out. It's one of the keys to manipulating ultraswords faster and also plays into that method to get it up quick when its in front of you. Someone charges you when the sword is down, you step back and that brings it up to meet them. Another technique, not for picking up really, but for close ups, is just holding the handle straight up with the tip in front of you. Its kinda annoying to get around such a big object and you can move your body left while moving the handle right or body right while moving the handle left to play, but you should just transition immediately to charging your opponent down like a bulldozer. Its a 40lb sword so far, knocking someone down lets you just guillotine them from a mount with sometimes just the weight alone. No need to pull out your rondel and fish for an opening. Also you should be in plate, or rather full brigandine since we are men of the future. It makes those charges against you even more foolish. They have to get through your armor, which was incredible unlikely back in the day, thats what the wrestling and rondel was for. Suddenly the only intelligent way to fight you is bolas, ropes, kyoketsushoge, nets, kusarigama, meteor hammers, etc. As you can see, its all about either out ranging you with a high enough velocity / high enough momentum object to pierce your armor or binding you up. Glad to see you making some real progress today, keep it up. 👍

This is awesome!!!!

You need to lift weights and drink creatine and protein. Need to do this right !

interesting

Is it weeb shit? Yes Does it make sense? No Is it good training? Absolutly not Do i apreciate the effort, and like the low budget backyard style? Yes. Do i respect him for doing it, even tho it is useless weebshit training? Ofcourse!

no way I missed it, rahh and this was in 5 am

Heya, I actually made a third comment on your video "59 days training" that got flagged and deleted automatically for some reason. So I'll be reposting a quick rewritten thing that I said, as a sort of tip or perhaps something you might find interesting All the comment was about is that you could possibly put a little hole where the hand can fit in the middle to end of the blade at the spine. Basically creating a handlebar there and this way it would allow for various new possibilites of usage, blocking, recovery and attacking. It would be somewhat similar to how greatswords (or usually called Zweihanders) have a handle, then a crossguard then a dull blade part covered with leather and then another crossguard followed by the actual real and full blade (although the start of the final blade also used to be quite dulled). It was done for much better handling possibilities and even for making certain attacks more possible and incredibly powerful. Or make blocking a possibility too. You can hold it at the handle and at the dull part and do an incredibly powerful thrust just like a spear while not having to worry about the leverage being too great and pulling your point down and to the ground. Or simply grab it that way again and you're able to pull or put it up much faster and so you're "charged" and ready to do the first swing significantly faster. Also lastly what would definitely be useful is watching real people who use Zweihanders/Greatswords and practice with them. More or less their rules are about constantly keeping the exact same momentum, basically swinging it around in circles above you and the main purpose of the weapon was area denial and crowd control. You could definitely get official and historical techniques and tips that will turn you into an actual beast in a battle. (PS: I'd already be choosing you for the zombie apocalypse if it were to happen haha)

Interesting video. I'll like, but... I WILL NOT SUBSCRIBE, bwahahahahaha! BTW, average weight of a real functional sword... 4 lbs.

It might pay to start drilling some rising cuts to get more used to raising the blade quickly.

I’m a huge believer in following KZbin tutorials. Rather than trying to reinvent the wheel with your training, go watch some long sword tutorials and practice those. Heavier weapons aren’t really meant to be used with lots of explosive start-stop motions. Each strike should fluidly blend into the wind-up of the next strike. Either way, awesome job! Keep having fun!

Love watching people practice like this, I don't have a working forge yet but I practice heavy sword swinging with 0.24 inch thick tread plates.

Great work

Ya know, the 2016 anime got a really bad rep for (well many things) for the sound the clang noises, but it seems they really weren't far off, considering the real DS is roughly 300lbs 😂

6:16 bro's laugh sounded like the McDonalds theme song

consider the following: when you're picking up the blade in that curling motion, you're putting all the lifting power into your arms and your lower back, which is going to start killing you. instead, perhaps try thinking of it like how an olympic deadlift is pulled into an overhead thrust, by pulling up on the weight and simultaniously dropping under it to catch it. i think you should do something similar with the sword, when it's firm into the ground, pull up and drop yourself under it, then stand from a squat. you should be able to do this with the point out and blade horizontal which will start you back into a solid optionalized position.
