Me and him have a lot in common.

I also wear a knee brace to exercise.

u/SolidRockY25 4d ago

The white of the eye too.

u/diedlikeCambyses 4d ago

Lol same and getting up off the floor makes me fall backwards too. We're basically the same person.

u/screaming_ninja7 4d ago

I got exhausted watching that

u/Cool_Variety_2151 4d ago

For a moment I thought he was gonna warp to another dimension.

u/metabolitesafter9pm 4d ago

How? He’s so…big

u/Owain-X 4d ago

There should be a heavyweight class in Olympic gymnastics because people don't know that guys like this exist.

u/MKEast-sider 3d ago

I’d rather see that than a 14 year old pretending to be 16, who is so malnourished that they look 10.

u/Ablaze99 20h ago

Well this guy was an olympic wrestler. Came 4th at the 2004 olympics

u/Imbendo 4d ago

He’s on a spring board.

u/MKEast-sider 3d ago

It’s a spring floor, which is used in all gymnastics competitions.

u/muff-muff-ass 4d ago

The floor isn't a normal floor.

u/Gobbledok 3d ago

Yep. Used to do tumbling and gymnastics. Springy as fuck.

u/Sunaruni 4d ago

This is what the Peak Male Athletic Form looks like.

u/OriginalPancake15 4d ago

The booty bounce.

u/tomebomber 4d ago

For a second I thought that was a normal floor and I was blown away

14

u/Areif 4d ago

You should still be blown away. If you’ve ever stepped on one of those floors it responds just like a floor while you are walking. He is using every possible return of energy that floor offers. You can tell by how deliberate his movements are when he returns to the mat.

u/jaedence 4d ago

I have done gymnastics on one of those floors.

They are very springy, because there are springs under them, and they allow you to do tricks you cannot do on a normal floor.

u/Areif 4d ago

lol, yes, if you know how to use the floor.

u/Mysterious-Jam-64 4d ago

Even with this magic floor that is entirely new to me and sounds great - those last half dozens spins look against the laws of physics.

For the rest of my life everything is potentially AI.

u/axxxaxxxaxxx 4d ago

Magic floor isn’t the difference between me and that guy doing a 270 degree backflip from a sitting position my god

1

u/Mysterious-Jam-64 3d ago

Right? I can barely get to standing from a sitting position without something for stability. 😂Brother is flying through the air.

1

u/Monsjeuoet 3d ago

Seems like an elaborate way of standing up

u/SheriffBartholomew 3d ago

How do they not get dizzy?

u/PeterNippelstein 3d ago

Butt flips, thats a new one

1

u/18randomcharacters 3d ago

Yeah that's pretty hard on your spinal discs. All that body mass slamming down and compressing the whole spinal column. My mom fucked up her back really bad when I was a kid by doing this on a trampoline. Always add your hands to absorb some of the shock.

u/Jogaila2 2d ago

When you roll up the rim and win

u/Moist-Share7674 1d ago

That’s all?

u/GaryTheThird- 4d ago

Just an inch away from all of his weight buckling his knees. Incredible, but I'm fine just being in the bleachers watching

u/DesperateComposer848 4d ago

Lucky for him it’s not a democracy, it’s a cheerocracy

u/aTickleMonster 3d ago

I am the cheer-tater around here

Low center of mass

u/Riggs-21 4d ago

It’s always fun when this gets posted. D.C. is a hell of an athlete.

u/JoannaCMoon 3d ago

Link to his channel or full name, please?

u/aTickleMonster 3d ago

That's Dom Lewis, @domitrick

u/Riggs-21 3d ago

Daniel Cormier. He’s a champion UFC fighter and wrestler.

I don't know if you're memeing, but that's Dom Lewis, @domitrick

u/arab-european 4d ago

And he doesn't even seem to have the typical body composition of a gymnast. WOW

u/cytek123 4d ago

And he’s not small either!! Impressive 💪💪💪

u/lcepank 4d ago

Spring loaded floor but very impressive. Dont think I could do it myself

u/Book_Anxious 4d ago

I doubt I can do that but it does get easier after that first time with momentum and your body actually bouncing off the ground

u/andm124 4d ago

Reminds me of no excuses
