for those of you that watch ninja warrior (sasuke) on g4, you might appreciate my feeble attempt at this mini sasuke course they have at muscle park in odaiba. these 4 components are usually in the third round of the sasuke competition.

the propeller bars were stupid easy, all upper back. the cliff hanger was easy for the first third of the stretch, but to get to that second level? you need to do a one handed pull-up with your left hand, with only an inch of space to hold on to. seems impossible. watching the video, i think i could’ve done the jumping bars, if i wasn’t so tired and used a different technique. i should’ve done a full pull up first and then just flung the bar up, instead of trying to do it all in one motion. the sliding bar was easy to get across, but if you watch the show, you know many a competitor failed where i did… i’m not sure how i should’ve handled that section. but from here on out, all my gym workouts will be back/bi’s and wrists.

ninja warrior is on g4 every day at 6p and 9p
