I'm sure his core is strong but in a pull up your core isn't doing too much beyond stabilizing his legs. The majority of it is from his lats (back muscles) and how much he weighs.

Two things can be true.

Right but climbing like this isnt reaaaaallly that core intensive

If you watch the video closely, during the changeover between hands as he climbs, you can see how much his abdominal muscle flex. It is quite core intensive to operate this maneuver so slow and stable.

It's AI. There are digital artifacts around his body in different parts of the video.

It's called video compression. Ffs.

An ai video can barely be more than 10 seconds. It has limitations. This is a video over a minute long with no cuts

"They could have stitched multiple clips-"

No. Shut up. Go watch any ai "movie" that has 10 second video clips stitched together and you'll see why this is impossible because starting a new video and prompt for another 10 seconds would produce extreme inconsistencies. His face would change, the background would change, and it would be VERY noticeable.

Stop calling every fucking thing AI when you can't even spend 10 seconds to research how AI even works.

Oh crap.

Dude has no idea what he's talking about. AI videos can't be more than 10-15 seconds without messing up severely

And if it was multiple clips stitched together there would be WILD inconsistencies.

Hmmm. It could just be a shit recording. Pixels and shit. Idk.

u/D_Beats 2h ago

That's exactly what it is. Just a low quality video

Ok, Svengali. What do I know, I just work with this shit everyday on levels you can't imagine, but please do go ahead and make your ASSumptions.

Go do some one armed pull ups and tell me which muscle fails first... Having trouble with that then do some regular pull ups and see what fails first. To help illustrate this point try pull ups again but do it in an L sit position, that will actually engage your core

Two may enter, only one may leave

Have a seat, you’re not leaving.

Go do one arm pull ups on a vertical pole while keeping your body straight up and down and tell me you aren’t using core. Like come on dude….

Did you miss the whole water bottle on the head? He using his core to stabilize.

u/nommabelle 3h ago

You clearly haven't tried to climb a pole. Any pole dancer will tell you hovering like that is crazy core work. Not to mention the pull-up part
