I spent the first 2:45 trying to guess if this was going to be a joke/parody or not. I guessed wrong…
Holy Shit! Holy Shit! That the funniest damn video I’ve seen in a while. Are you shittin" me?!! My dog when I grew up used to have a blast playing with sticks and he was jacked as hell. I’m glad to see that someone finally made the equivalent for humans. Seriously though, I looked that thing up and it is over $200 for some rubber tubing!!
Is that thing for real?

one question though, can you attach weight plates or similar to it? ( because it looks similar to some type of barbell they have used on strongman events )

Lol tis far more puss than a strongman log
From what I could tell, they are set at a certain weight because they sold different models that were all weighted differently. So to answer your question, it seems they are as worthless as they appear. I could be wrong, though, as I only spent a few minutes on their site and wss laughing the whole time.

I checked it out and they have a fixed weight( 4kg - 20kg ).
Probably the most gimmicky thing for a long time LOL.

Yeah that’s the log lol. Way cooler training implement than the vipr/douchepipe
EDIT: I missed the previous post that already listed their weights.
They’ll probably start selling with the crossfit crowd since they develop “functional strength.”
the marketing slogan for those stupid Vipr things is “to the uninitiated, it’s just a tube…”
If you’d like to experiment with Sandow’s method and use an older / traditional weight routine you’ll probably find this thread interesting.

Good luck and let us know how it goes.

you now have no excuses.
i expect pics when you arrive there.
Yeah apparently people have been getting jacked from ‘old skool’ training for thousands of years even before whey protien was invented. Its absolutely insane.
… but you can get there faster now, with less risk for injury. We did learn a few things over the years.
