RE: Aussie Ninja - Heat Run on Australian Ninja Warrior 2017

in #dtube7 years ago

Good run! That looks like a pretty sweet time. I wonder if they're having a canadian tour anytime soon... Might be fun to spend a couple months training for one if I get wind of one coming to town.

I never thought of the night-time filming requirements. I guess it totally makes sense. Thanks for sharing!

How do you train for something like this? I've seen lots of videos of people setting up gyms in the backyards or at school and stuff. I would imagine that most of the obstacles aren't easy to train for...

Dude! I thought you were Aussie! Did I make that up or did you have a post or something from Australia? Sorry man, I totally build a whole different story for you in my head. Also, can I say Caitlyn's website is so goddamn impressive! Her photography is amazing.

I had a quick look and couldn't find anything for you. There is a Ninja Gym in Vancouver, but it looks pretty kid-centric. I wanted to visit last time I had to do my visa thing but ended up in Barbados instead.

No, you're right... it's hard to train without specific equipment, but it's not impossible. The Salmon Ladder for instance.. it's more technique than strength, but you can develop a similar technique but doing pull up claps. I've got a lot of posts in mind about specific training techniques, so I'll add to my list a post about training without equipment... thanks for the idea dude!

Haha I'll check out some of the training posts for sure.

I had an earlier post about how I just visited Sydney/New Castle/Briabane in August, so that's probably the source of confusion.

Thanks for the good vibes for Caitlyn's website, I'm trying to convince her to make an account. I think she has a lot of cool stuff to share.
