Thread: feats of strength!

WTF If that kid doesn't join the national Olympic team it'll be a crime.

Yeah, I've seen that.

It's impressive as shit and that kid's yoked and all.

But, I still think that's child abuse.

My nephew was like this when he was 4-6, then videogames got him and now he;s a chubby non-athlete.....he used to do backflips off the couch, he could ride wheelies on his bike.....one day he wiped out bad coming off the ramp in his backyard and got up laughing and hopped back on his bike.....then he turned soft when he went to live with his grandma...I wish my sister would have let him live with me.....

I would rather see someone encourage their child to work out like this, than some fatty at MC D's porking the fries to their kid.

It is amazing.
Like little Hercules.
But i think if he get pushed to hard he will get to 10-12 then give it up.

if you put it that way, i agree.

but your 4 year old doing flips of the dinner table seems kinda dangerous to me? I don't know...maybe he needs some ritalin ?

In Europes Eastern block, gymnastics is huge. We play basketball, baseball and football and they do Sambo and gymnastics. That kid seems to be displaying mostly gymnastics related core strength & stability and for their culture, though his talent seems extraordinary, I don't think this kind of activity even that uncommon.

I think the difference between this kid and little hercules, is that this kid is still doing kid things, climbing and jumping off shit, while little hercules was put in the gym to bodybuild and arguably given substances.

Is that why they all wear track suits over there?

Oh, God, don't even get me started on kids and ritalin. I cannot believe that they actually give that shit to kids, piriod, and on top of that, I can't believe the ages of the kids that they're pumping full of 60+mg's a day of something that is commonly referred to as 'kiddie coke'


When Tyler was little he almost broke his arm doing a back-flip off a picnic table to impress a girl. Kids do dangerous things, it's normal. As long as you're not letting them run around brandishing a knife and smoking crack I think we should be okay.

Yeah, and when they graduate to adult cocaine, they wonder how come!
Where did little Johnny go wrong ?

For the attention of a particular little girl, I will confess, that little boys will do just about anything. Even beat up their best friend!

I remember as a kid some of us used to ride bikes. We had somehow crudely managed to put together a 1/4 pipe and we would attempt to ride it. As we would be doing our thing, we used to ask, " wouldn't it be something, if I could do a back flip ".

My point being, fast forward all these years, and kids are almost able to do two rotations now, crazy!

But in children Ritalin has a paradoxical effect where it actually slows them down......so it's more like valium for them.....

Same reason some kids feel suicidal after taking prozac or like meds......

He should do well at the festivus celebrations, though I suspect he doesn't have many grievances to air.

Stimulants ramp me up physically, but they calm me down in a controlled environment and allows me to focus without my imagination jumping all over the place. I could have been the poster child for ritalin. My grades jumped dramatically when I started taking ephedrine in college.

I owe graduating first in my Associates Degree class to ephedrine too, it helped me hone my focus and learn in voracious eye fulls....

As weed will snap me awake when I smoke it first thing in the morning and also make me out going and social like coke seemed to do for my friends...coke actually made me feel down and cranky....
