At Pat’s Gym, we’re always experimenting with new exercises. This one was pretty intense and pushed the limits. Coach Jacob and I had fun trying this extreme movement exercise. It takes focus on mental strength, and core strength. Also, it takes faith in your partner and communication.
The exercise involved Coach Jacob doing a bench press while I’m on the bar being his weight. As he’s doing the benchpress, I’m doing a handstand push-up. You got that right!
WARNING: Don’t try this because it is extremely difficult. If you do try it, try it at your own risk. Make sure that you are VERY strong so that you don’t injure yourself, regardless of the role you play. You should never get injured in the gym.
If you do try this with someone, practice your handstand and use the bamboo bar to bench. The bamboo bar we have at Pat’s Gym does the trick.
Stay tuned for new impressive exercises. Our coaches will always be pushing the limits.
