Core strength plays much less of a role in calisthenics than people think (and climbing too, for that matter). Sondre's strongest point is his pushing strength, especially his absurd shoulder strength in bent-arm moves ; of course his core strength is good, but that's not where the money is made.

When you trust in God and cast your cares (worries, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts) upon him, they will be NO MORE! Know that there is power in the name Jesus Christ! His name casts out demons and heals! The world is wicked, evil, and of the devil. I too, was a wicked sinner of the world before I opened my heart to God. I am living proof of God's work and fruitfulness! He is an active God who hears the prayers of his! God's children are set apart (holy) and righteous. The devil is a liar that comes to steal, to kill, and to destroy; that includes your relationship with God! Open your heart to God, repent of your sins (he will forgive you), and let him direct your path. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands and purify your heart, lest you walk with the devil and follow him to hell.

[@nichtsistkostenlos6565]

I love this video because a lot of people focus too much on thinking they need to get stronger to get better at climbing, but this showcases that if you're not at a very advanced level of climbing, technique is FAR more important. Sondre is already a great climber, but you can clearly see his limiting factors are certainly not strength-related. If you're in your first few years of climbing, focus on actually learning to climb. You'll get stronger naturally, but more importantly you'll learn the technique, intuition, and muscle memory that it takes to climb hard routes. If your focus is to get better at climbing, then strength training should be more of a supplemental afterthought.

Climbing is really so different in terms of strength. It’s really all in the ability to grip, lock position, core, finger, and other things. Bodybuilding or calisthenics really doesn’t make you good or better at climbing, it helps a little in terms of people who don’t do anything but not as much as people I think assume it would help.

[@fabiankrupka5637]

no you are wrong

[@mirceal9930]

the dude literally climbed a 7a on his first day. I takes people years of climbing to reach that level. how is that a "little help"?

[@annedavis3340]

@Mircea L Considering it was NOT his first day climbing and he was already was doing 7A's when he met Magnus, I think that's a bit of a distortion, don't you? He says so 1m40 in, it's not exactly buried somewhere

[@kathrinaltenkopf4993]

I loved this video so much! The way you learned from each other feels rlly inspiring to me and you both seem so down to earth. Since I have troubles to allow myself to fail - especially in sports - it felt good to see you casually try and have fun :)

[@tinananananaaaa]

Just found out your channel a few days ago and I can't stop watching! You are hella inspiring even for a couch potato like me lol! Keep it up Magnus.

Your videos are always amazing buddy! Keep it up!

What a couple of wholesome dudes. I wish I knew people like them.

Magnus always just casually puts all his guests in their place. "While you're resting, I'll just take a shot at the hardest boulder in the gym." Also breezes through a move while saying, "that move was pretty hard." Such a low-key showoff lol. Love it.

Not on his recent video climbing outdoors with Shawn

[@dunkelwalde695]

Putting guests in their place? Lol most of his guests aren’t climbers. Put Magnus on a Wrestling Mat or in a Strongman competition and he would look absolutely silly and people would really “put him in his place.” Your comment is ret@rded.

Great video! It'd be awesome to see a video with Martins Licis! I feel like he'd be more suited to climbing than most WSM competitors.

[@ManWhoKnewTooLittle]

the power and strength in both of these guys, amazing

[@gmr42588]

I love your videos! One small disagreement with form on handstands, good form helps with balance. That's why gymnasts are taught form first, if you lock your body on form, it takes out all the "variables" like Sondre was talking about. You'll be able to hold longer because it is an easier position to hold. Good technique > strength always.

[@Thedrewshow559]

I love the culture. These men are doing some of the most incredible feats of strength and they're all "Yeah you know, it's pretty decent yeah". Humility is a bigger flex than braggadocio. Awesome social norms we can use here in the states. Great job.

[@TheAlison1456]

I love that you do this sort of 90/10% trade where you teach the guest and the guest teaches you. Really awesome.

[@alopezdrums]

Guys thank you!! What a treat to have you both in a video; times two!!! More of this please 🙏

[@nightcall7398]

This guy is amazing! its nice to see your heroes conquer new challenges! Great job!

[@ethanwallis5678]

I’m not sure people who don’t climb/boulder understand how difficult these are. Imagine hanging from a ledge that is tilted 45 degrees downwards while locking in a pull up. They have to do harder stuff + the finger strength is incredible

[@Frank-ox3np]

"Just pause for a moment and think about the next step..." That's actually some amazing life advice.

Something about the camera move at 12:50 when he starts going up is so satisfying
