RE: Training for American Ninja Warrior - Day 22
Aww man, this has been a dream of mine for such a long time! 2016 was the last year I went at it hard, but grip is my main weakness and I couldn't do a pull up to save my life. If I could turn back the clock I would be doing pull-ups and grip strength exercises all day every day as soon as I can walk! Good luck on your journey, I hope you make it on the show!
Me too! I'm pushing 41, and I've been watching the Japanese version of the show before most of the current competitors were even born...
Grip is the hardest to work on, it literally takes a full year just to be okay... and like 3-6 years to actually have a good chance... the good thing is that an entire industry has exploded, so now there are ninja gyms and ninja comps all over the place to have fun in.
Thank you!!
Oh yeah haha I've been so tempted to enroll in one for the longest time. Gotta work on my endurance first before I start up back with the grip thing!
