The new record for the most push-ups with one arm...

Post by DragonBoxZTheMovies » Mon May 26, 2014 1:19 am

...while carrying a 40lb pack in one minute is 33.

How does this relate to Dragon Ball? Well...

New Record! The most push-ups with one arm carrying a 40lb pack in one minute is 33, achieved by Japan's Hiroyuki Gondou at Hikichidai Park, in Yamato, Kanagawa, Japan, on 10 May 2014.

Dedicated Hiroyuki regularly appears on the Japanese TV series Sasuke/Ninja Warrior. He's been doing push-ups, daily, since he was 10 years old and started doing one-hand push-ups at age 15.

This is amazing in so many levels. It reminds me of both Goku training in his ship and little Trunks doing the same (and, at the same time, counting 9,001; 9,002; cut to Vegeta shocked).

NOTE: for most of the people in the world, that's 18.14 kg.

Here I thought I was cool because I could do 4 (non weighted ofc)! I've found however that the amount of one handed pushups I can do varies by day (1-4). My friend that can also do it says it varies for him too.

I can do 13 average. I must train. That low class human has surpassed me again! I'm Asia Prince(I'm guessing he's from Asia)! I need to ask my doctor to build me a gravity machine at once. I'm the legendary Supa Asian! Not Hiroyuki Gondou! It's me Prince Pudd Green!

Good point.

When I read "40lb" I thought it was a lot but then converted it to Kilos and it was just 18kg which really isn't a lot, but still, what he's done is pretty impressive and awesome.

Great stuff. DB can be weirdly good motivation for that kind of thing.

DBZ was one of the catalysts for me to get into bodybuilding (and animating too!! and drawing and............ etc :D ). I can do 50 pushups straight raw without warming up easy but I doubt I could do that much that fast. Considrering I am 176.5 cm and 84 kg (5'9.5" and 185 lbs) there is no way I could pull off that haha! Kudos to him! I am going to get a "Kame" Character or the "Go" character T-Shirt to train in the gym with soon! Got to love the motivation Dragonball gives people like this guy and myself and many others! Such an outstanding story to do that to people! :)
My favourite art style (and animation) outside Toriyama who worked on Dragon Ball: Katsuyoshi Nakatsuru, Masaki Satō, Minoru Maeda, Takeo Ide, Hisashi Eguchi, Katsumi Aoshima, Tomekichi Takeuchi, Masahiro Shimanuki, Kazuya Hisada

Same here, First bodybuilding now moved into Calisthenics to train more like vegeta and just overwhelm people when I do handstand push ups lol - I have been wanting to shoot some vids of me working out in my new Torso T's but haven't got around to it yet!

I give this guy HUGE props, 1-arm push up + weight = hard!! I do have one questions though - did he try match those reps on the other arm?
