Gymnast try Climbing

[@jujimufu]

Magnus: Doesn't bench press at all Magnus: Let me bench press with one side heavy and one empty Magnus: I'm the strongest man in the world

[@RoderickGI]

The spotting, or lack of, for Marcus on the bench press had me cringing. You need to teach him better boys!

Hey Magnus, you wanted feedback on the production. i liked the video, but every time you point to holds and explain a boulder the camera stays on you and we do not get to see the wall. The biggest improvement would (from my point of view) likely be to - either have a long shot from like hip hight several meters behind you looking slightly up, so we can see you at the wall explaining it, and get a feel for the steepness, - or have you just as a voiceover, while the camera pans from hold to hold along the boulder. Best regards, and keep inspiring people to share your passion in sports.

[@Jagi125]

Felt the same way. But still I need to add, that the editing was really nice.

[@chillmeisterk8699]

Yea thats true but I love the edit, so nice and I love his way of showing grades :) when u start climbing and the grade apears ( 7:00 ) and good recording skills as well :)

[@CrazyBlueMood]

All is good magnus.. i just think the vid is a bit too long.. markus did a great job overall 👍

[@erwinthomas3667]

I absolutely love the floating text showing the grade of the route in both European and American grading scales, so I think it'd be nice to add something similar when he's explaining the route to camera with that long shot you mentioned. I think it'd look nice and be extremely helpful to new climbers that have a hard time visualizing a verbal explanation of a route, or even remembering what he said when they watch him climb the beta.

[@micahart2980]

[@thesii213]

@@Skaane Did Magnus give you a guide to his editing style? Like drone shot, drone shot, slow pan into music with new scene?

[@wymcoupe9335]

@@Skaane The editing was great but your camera work needs some work. Try to stay steadier and get wider shots. A nice gimbal is your friend if you don't have a super steady hand. If your shooting at 4K/8K that gives you room to chop some of the video off and highlight the important parts rather than moving around trying to capture everything.

[@Rierasub]

The camera and editing was so good as usual. It doesn't feel like it changed that much, so perfect! Greetings from Spain!

Ethics ?

[@iNotsuoh]

good edits on the wall skill level, good b roll footage, good music. Props to the new editor, magnus keep this guy around.

[@stanisawborkowski1588]

My observations: 1. The music was a little bit to loud 2. There could be a score board for competition points 3. The zooms on weight were a bit to long But the video was really enjoyable to watch. Keep it up Magnus and The Editor. ❤️

[@tree9380]

I find the music perfect its not overpowering or underpowering. There are no flaws in the editing that are bugging me

[@Dantastic123]

Agreed with this also. Often times I watch these videos after my kids go to sleep. When I turn the volume up loud enough to hear the voices, then the music hits and blares through the house and wakes the kids.

[@bimtino]

@@Dantastic123 headphones?! you're welcome... ;)

[@Dantastic123]

@@bimtino lol. Hmmm, headphones? That seems like a reasonable solution. Maybe I could just have my kids sleep with ear plugs. Or maybe I could use closed caption so I had to read the words, but get to listen to the music. Or maybe Magnus could make a tiny adjustment to the levels during editing. /S But in all seriousness, I usually just watch with the remote in my hand and try to be quick with the volume when it fluctuates.

[@cofiddle]

Absolutely love how the grades are written on or next to the wall with corresponding colors as well. Very nice touch!

[@embergamedev]

I have to say, the feedback in the comments section on video production we're all spot on, and this video production was well done. The pacing in the video felt even and correct throughout. So while I can see parts improve, this video was just so enjoyable to watch with the help of both the quality content and the editing. I love watching how this channel has evolved slowly over time. Keep it up!

[@baconbrogaming]

Magnus is super human he did a flagpole on the boulder 9:29

[@victorrannou-wetterwald9461]

BB Gaming if you cling pretty regularly you can probably do a flag on a. Boulder

[@shoeonhead]

BB Gaming I’m 225 and have only bouldered for 8 month and can flagpole. It it’s a lot easier than you think actually, and you can specifically train that little trick pretty fast by doing some calisthenics.

[@imbaguitar]

Not to mention in this case, momentum is pulling his legs upwards into that position. His core pulls it back. This is easier on the core, harder on your grip/finger strength

[@RubixB0y]

The way he stepped with his feet after the flagpole made it look like he was manipulating gravity.

[@ABSVabeautifulsunsetvlog]

I thought the exact same thing

[@ruthm6315]

Editing and camera angles were spot on. It was a good variety of shots and the cuts were generally good, maybe a few that could've been done smoother, but honestly anyone who doesn't edit wouldn't really notice. Only criticism would be maybe improving on smoothness of the camera when following movements, even standing back a bit more could help, but really it was only a few times I noticed it and other times they were closer it was done well. Really liked the montage bit at 2:18 - 2:40, slow-mo effect was cool and background music was good too! So overall really good haha, definitely a really good starting place when filming and editing something new. 🤙🏻

[@ImBroments]

Love the motion-tracked text with the text matching the hold colours. Thumbs up from me.

[@ThyDoughnuttt]

[@wolfkayak9]

Great video Magnus. Marcus really good job on the editing, think the colour correction you have done is really good and I liked the titles.

[@Scammell555]

I thought in general the editing captured a lot of your style that we've become accustomed to and that's a really good thing! Definitely the text inserts were a lot more visually pleasing as well. Sometimes the music felt a bit over the top and less chill than usual but this was a bit more of a higher intensity video with the weight lifting etc compared to your usual chilled way of shooting your climbing so I don't think it was really out of place. Still really enjoyed the video, well done Magnus and Markus!

[@TwistedFire85]

Lol. 2 people not used to lifting weights and bad things happen. Glad you guys are alright

[@joelcremeens3618]

TwistedFire85 did he knowingly put different weight on each side? Uhhh

I think it's interesting to see how each of you compensated when the dips got really hard - it really shows the differences in muscle training. Fascinating!

[@DavidEnBerr]

Watching the video I'd just say Markus needs to pan up to the problems when you are going over them not just keep you in medium shot as you are pointing up the problems As soon as I saw the bench bar I was thinking to myself that Tom & Juji would be so happy to see this then I see the weights sliding lol

🤔I think the camera work is wrong, it's all wrong🤨..... you should hire me🤣 Obviously kidding I think it's a flawless transition. My only thing would be like someone else said, is that the camera focused on you when it should have shown something else.

[@hyperfocused3465]

Loved the video! Couple notes since you asked for them: 1. The tracked titles for names, grades etc. were great, I have done that when I have edited for others and it is a great effect. 2. I wish during explanations/route readings if we could get inserts of the entire boulder as well. 3. There were a few times a conversation had an abrupt cut to a drone transition, I wish there was another half second or so to breath so that no one talking got abruptly cut off. These are just nit picks for improvement honestly, I really enjoyed the video Markus did well and Marcus was fun to watch!

Strength is basically disconnected from endurance. Also maybe he was not on his first take?

Clearly he hasn't been running much lately, unlike that time he ran most of a marathon with no preparation... But I also wouldn't be surprised if he had been up and down the stairs several times for different takes.

Also people underestimate how heavy holding a proper camera at arms length with a single hand can be, he's moving quickly up stairs while carrying a decent amount of kit.

Damn :o Do you guys realize that some gymnasts train for the iron cross for many years and Magnus just almost does it first time and basically asks "was that good?" :D It's harder than the human flag, muscle up, 1arm chin up etc IMO to do and is a very elite level skill, sure theres inverted cross too but daym..

[@3DHDcat]

It's an elite skill but not the hardest. If ones protraction, scapula, shoulders, chest are strong and used to straight arm pressure (which climbers are used to apart from the chest) they have more than good foundation

[@Fnirr]

Nice video! You wanted some feedback so here are my personal points. - Like the text and counters and such very good - Frame could be a bit further out on some parts and as some people have also said to show the boulders. - Maybe put some infographics on the boulders to show what Magnus is talking about? (for us climbing n00bs) - Thumbnail was epic :D - But good for a "first" video and you have room to evolve and get your rhythm.

[@ciaranm183]

Sorry to be cheeky, but a highlight video of every slab of the week would be so cool!!

[@Narwaro]

Markus, Marcus and Magnus. Now thats a fun trio!

[@11219tt]

Definitely a different feel to the video. Tbh it’s less comedic. Like something that would have been funny before seems slightly embarrassing instead. I in no way think it’s a bad job. Just not the same flavor. It’s hard to put my finger on it, but it’s slightly less entertaining, and the music choice isn’t the same flavor.

[@urgamecshk]

Less chemistry between them and the rock music just seems weird

[@robertwettstadt9876]

The beginning felt kinda rushed. No real introduction/background. Boulders were suddenly cut with no explanation if Marcus sent or not (I am assuming no). The end felt a bit weird as well. Half way into the training session it's suddenly become a competition without any preamble. It's not really a bad video, but I think it's a bit different from Magnus' usual quality.

[@jrgeneriksen4893]

Love the new style of editing and filming!

[@theadnudcyk]

I think a slightly wider angle lens (shorter focal length) would make viewing a little nicer - that or stand further back if possible

[@auliaaulia8717]

First of all great opening act, felt like one of those Spielberg movie. Second, I feel very relatable when you out of breath walking up the stairs and remember how comfortable you are when you tangling on the wall...

Marcus: I don't think we should do more than 5kg more. I don't think it's possible. Magnus, holding 6kg: We can add 6kg or we can add 4. Marcus: We should add 6kg. The competition here, is gloriously understated but you could cut it with a knife.

[@Bill_pierre]

While the video quality was good, I felt it lacked some of the personal elements that are often a great part of your videos. Normally your videos make it feel like I (one of the viewers) are literally hanging out with you at the gym climbing and having fun. This definitely felt more like I was "watching a show" from a distance, separated from you and the gym, if that makes sense. As others stated, the editing was ok, the music was a little loud at times, etc. but was overall fine. Beyond climbing, Magnus, you truly have a knack for videography/photography, and sharing what you're seeing and experiencing with your audience. This was missing.

[@boltingskyline5234]

If Mr 666 (🙄) thinks He can do better! Then maybe He should start making His own videos! (🙄)

Magnus, I watched you squat with Juji and have now watched you bench press. If you're ever in Seattle I'd love to do a free personal training session for you!
