I really enjoyed watching this video, you guys are amazing. BUT you did the "egg challenge" wrong because the egg has a way more stronger side and you crushed on the weak side!

[@StealthClimbs]

Thanks for creating the course! I'm looking forward to it :)

[@slamsuperslam]

Ondra climbs so much he can’t do any push movements, even when laughing he’s only pulling air in unable to push it out LOL

[@unterschichtblog]

Watching Adam Ondra with those monster arms being unable to bench 80 kilos was the most life-affirming thing that's happened to me this week.

[@isaacfalkenstine792]

He can pull incredibly hard but pushing is different.

[@josefzocek9585]

Dude, monster arms? he has skinny long arms = bad leverage and he's not used to the exact movement as you can see while he is setting himself up there. No wonder could not bench (I believe) significantly higher than his bodyweight.

[@el_mal_de_ojo]

@@josefzocek9585 He has long arms but they're fairly muscular, specially his biceps. Makes sense, that's a muscle that develops from climbing. He can't bench because benching targets the chest, shoulders and triceps. Nothing at all to do with biceps.

[@TheBcoolGuy]

Monster arms? LOL. LMAO, even. It was 70 kg, and even then, he didn't properly bench 60 kg. The bar has to touch your chest. His arms are small. He's small. He's just stupidly lean.

[@criff85]

you know that you mostly need pecs to bench press right?

[@FishSticker]

It's crazy how perfect Adam is for climbing, he's terrible at every exercise that isn't useful to climbing, but makes climbing look like a dream. Actual minmaxing

[@trulyinfamous]

And he's ridiculously lean and lanky too.

[@ChronicalV]

Has he done much other activities besides climbing? Our bodies are pretty good at getting better exactly at what youre doing

[@greigseavill629]

Its so great that we get to see adam, stefano, will bosi, jakob etc on youtube. I cant think of another sport with such good content made by the athletes.

[@rando4235]

I love this aspect of the climbing community. I do think there are a few exceptions but they are also not mainstream sports. For example, Mitchell Hooper has some pretty fun stuff (worlds strongest man), Haftor Bjornnson (WSM making a huge comeback after a major pec tear last year), Bob Jones (powerlifter - explicit language but also interesting), and Taylor Atwood (also a powerlifter who is making a bit of a comeback?).

[@trinityj1]

What was so, so wild/cool that can never be appreciated enough about Mangus' early collabs with Juji was seeing a world class athlete doing goofy Internet challenges alongside normal people in a candid video. It's both super entertaining and fascinating. Love the tradition continuing lol.

[@Jordonater]

We need more people like Magnus too. Personally cant stand the channels like Jesse james west its just so cringe and over the top

[@JeanneNorthcutt]

“…Some food will go to waste.” I LOVE ADAM ONDRA,

[@TurtleLover69527]

The exploding eggs were the highlight of the video for me

[@cameronbaird5658]

17:50 has me dying, the banter, the look of shock on Magnus' face, then when Magnus repeats it he sounds so Irish "my grandmudder can do it" just a phenomenal sequence of events 😂

[@_goosdetrukendoos_]

Hahahahaha 😂 no Irish tho

[@el_mal_de_ojo]

Adam shaking his arms out out of habit when holding his breath made me piss myself laughing

[@Voiiid]

Why is this a habit to do when holding your breath can you explain?

[@AscendedWalrus]

​@Voiiid it's a habit from his climbing. When climbing or really doing any gripping with your arms above your head, shaking them out puts some blood back into your extremity making it possible to continue gripping overhead

[@thatonedude5188]

I love Adam's energy so much. He has such a great smile and laugh

[@alexkalug]

Adam's laughter at 8:02 is now my ringtone

Adam shaking out is hilarious, I can't even imagine how much of your life must be spent climbing to make that an actual ingrained reflex 🤣

[@Manxkaffee]

I would love to see something like this with Janja at some point. I think she would be very good at all of this :D

[@tekrunner987]

Janja did a video on Natasha Oceane's channel recently, not quite the same but similar energy, very fun to watch as well. She can do a better one-arm pull-up than Adam!

[@davidwilson12590]

Adam's laugh is so genuine, it's hard not to laugh with him 😂 I found myself with a huge smile on my face at multiple points in this video

[@secret5.]

Really love the collabs with Ondra! So much good energy.

[@florianvieth2348]

Adam Ondra: We just climbed 9 hours, lets flash some comp boulders... also Adam Ondra: gets pumped from holding breath

[@CruxalYT]

Didn't think id ever laugh harder at a climbing video in my life than when you both just tried to hold your breath LMAO Adam crimped his nose so hard he got a pump that's true climber mode! it reminded me of making eye contact with your homie in class and both trying to not die of laughter for no reason at all

[@lukasz-dg5rn]

I actually had the same problem with 1 arm pull up as Adam, but after 8 years of climbing I figured out that the movement from straight hand to "where climbers start to feel strong" can be done wrong (I was doing it wrong). If I do it wrong, I am locked in ~150 degrees arm angle unable to move up. But if I do it is correct then I can keep pulling. I took my time just to learn this movement from straight to bent arm (I even stood underneath hangboard tensing and releasing my muscles without actual hanging just to learn the feeling of that movement until I figured out how to do it to have correct feeling when I get into bent arm position). I also did small amount of repetitions of "that part of movement that I used to do wrong". Once my brain figured out that movement and my muscles got used to it a little bit (around 3 weeks) I unlocked full one arm pull up. I am not even sure which part of that movement I did wrong, but I know the feeling of correct vs incorrect movement is different and learnable. At least in my case it was learnable. :)

[@Solemn_Kaizoku]

Possibly engaging your scapula more (i.e. pulling your shoulder blades down and back)?

[@jenmil000]

I love the chemistry you guys have. I felt like we were watching a video of you guys when you were kids just having a good time

[@gaiaiulia]

21:49, dead hang. Adam's expression, Zen and the Art of One Arm Dead Hang. Great video, Magnus and Adam. Good to see you both having so much fun, and giving us so much fun too.

[@sev_07]

the best intro ever

[@patrick4069]

"were not gonna let any food go to waste".. that made me smile since i was raised with that mindset

[@budthecyborg4575]

3:20 The wingspan of that guy is INSANE! To reach an IPF technically correct bench press, his elbows must drop below his shoulders, and then the bar must touch his chest (and I think there is a maximum grip width), so the proper bench form for Adam still requires a huge arch in his back to raise his chest to the bar once his elbows are down.

[@EcoHash]

This is so wholesome and adorable, man you guys are perfect as a duo😅

[@WoMoLu]

When you just came home from a Bouldering Session and Magnus uploaded-you know ist gonna be a great evening!

[@devdavid9272]

It's so funny to hear Adam Ondra laugh.😄Really interesting video tough!

[@fl260]

Awesome, I was binging your videos yesterday and the next day, you upload one. Your videos are always highly appreciated, Magnus!

[@Rodjeure]

Adam 44,5-45 street shoes, 40 to 41 climbing shoes max for comps and high level, and to 38 in the past : MY FEET HURTS HEARING THAT !! And now I've a good excuse for not doing 9a, I've comfortable climbing shoes, that's why !

[@chrism45]

Surprised with how small his feet are for such a tall guy. He's really built for climbing.

[@martj1313]

Being 53 years old i really wish i became aware of climbing when i was younger when all my joints still worked.

[@Jack-my9nz]

It's never to late! Don't put constraints on yourself, it's only negative no positive.

[@martj1313]

My knees and right shoulder do not concur.@@Jack-my9nz

[@gaiaiulia]

As a 71 year old climber who was a 70 year old couch potato and way overweight, I can tell you, yes you can. I could hardly climb the simplest route when I started. Just give it a try, you'll surprise yourself.

[@plastikmaiden]

It's never to late. Where ever you're starting from, you can improve.

[@marco_dl]

Ask for advice from a physio before training but it's really not late. A korean guy started climbing at 53 and recently climbed v15

[@dantelaw7759]

You and Adam have such a great rapport, it's so fun to watch you guys goofing around!

[@davidjones88]

[@isabelcisneros7516]

The fact that Adam can't bench press a ton of weight is so much more inspiring to me than if he could, it makes me feel like I really have a chance. Thanks for the awesome video!!

“Some food will go to waste.” 🤣

[@squidwardo7074]

17:51 i love the disgusted look on his face after he said that 😂

[@MrVvulf]

I didn't read any disgust, just good humor and laughter. And to be fair, women (in general) would have an advantage in that type of exercise because they have a lower center of gravity. From the NIH - women commonly have an 8 - 15% lower longitudinal center of gravity (COG or center of mass relative to height) than men.

[@kerra7386]

That part made me laugh so hard!! 😂

Cannot tell you how much I appreciate the no food wasting thing.

[@noone-ld7pt]

Holy shit I would not have guessed Ondra benching under 80. It really goes to show how spesialized he is! Like he is often training several times a day, and I absolutely destroy him on that just going to the gym once or twice a week. Of course I am then also stuck at a very impressive v3 level

"Hold your thighs and then jump" Ondra out here doing dynos into stretch positions 😂

[@strange_jason]

For anyone trying to hold their breath for over 2 min - First time I actually tried holding my breath for as long as possible I did just over 3 minutes. You lungs hold way more oxygen than you realise but you have to push yourself to overcome the feeling of CO2 build up in your lungs - I just had to focus on staying calm and almost "getting used" to the feeling of the CO2 build-up happening but keeping your body calm is super important. Try build up to each milestone as well: on your first hold go for 1:30, then 2:00, then 2:30, and then try for reaching 3:00 after that. Set a timer for the first 3 and then just activate your stopwatch for the last attempt and don't pay attention to the time.

[@josephlouie4002]

[@gollumdu8z135]

once, while my PE teacher was talking to the class outside, near a walnut treee, some kids were trying to open walnuts and not listening. So the teacher stopped talking, took their walnuts, cracked them in his hands like nothing, and then gave them back to them. I can tell you everyone was listening closely after that

[@edvineklof2141]

4:20 It is beneficial for all types of compression though, and the chest muscles are more involved in pulling movements than you'd think. So if you want to be a powerful boulderer I'd argue that bench press should be a staple in your routine (maybe not as important for leadclimbing though). And besides, having a relatively strong base in pressing movements reduces the injury risk for the shoulders.

[@silverstar2805]
