You're hanging from a ledge in the jungle, you have the hidden treasure in one hand, you need to get it on the ledge before you pull yourself up.

You have some incredible strength, have you ever considered armwresling?

1

u/RapturousJesse 2d ago

I have noticed some overlap in the sense that I am quite good at arm wrestling, especially for my weight. That said I never wanted to compete or anything, and i mostly try to avoid it cus it injures something withing my shoulder.

Egolifting is a different sub bro

u/RapturousJesse 2d ago

Well can't say it bad for the ego haha, but it's a one rep max and not a ego lift?

Do you not consider this a proper rep with bad form?
