It’s equivalent to running a 4 1/2 minute mile imo. Very impressive, takes years of work or insane genetics plus natural talent. It’s not the end of the journey, buts a major stepping stone
I know the text says that below.. but like the world record is 230 lbs, I doubt a random climber is only 10 lbs away so I don't believe it but can't confirm it myself
I compete in street lifting and know many guys that can pull up more than 80kg and only one of them is not on gear, the others take anavar and tren. They are also way more muscular than him, it’s still impressive but he’s clearly on gear
@@redditfm4578 he's not on gear lol. Just admit that climbers are some of the strongest athletes. I know people close to me climbing v14's that can do a 100kg pull up. It's hard but it can be done naturally
100kg weighted pull up is absolutely nuts. Literally adding more than his bodyweight and it was even on a bar. The level of back, forearm and hand strength is unreal.
it was on the jug portion of the hangboard. even though it was on jugs and wasn't a full rep, it was still absurdly impressive. i dont think it would be possible for any human to do a 220 lb pullup on a crimp ever
I like it when a youtuber use metric in their videos, but still have enough kindness in his heart to add an imperial conversion to help the less civilized people in USA, Liberia, and Myanmar. God bless you dude. And by the way, that pull up was amazing.
I'm 38 and I started rock climbing 4 months ago because I can't skateboard anymore. Climbed my first v2 this week and I'm chuffed. Anyway well done buddy with the 1.5.9 I tried that and don't understand how you guys can even hold onto the first one. Big respect dude well done
Holy shit dude. As a piss-ant guitarist who worries about a node in one of his fingers, this both terrifies me, and makes me feel like an idiot. Very motivating.
8 years! What dedication! Until today I've never seen anything like this stuff except for what you see in the movies. This is truly inspirational. I don't do rock climbing and I'm probably too old and banged up to start learning now, but thanks for the videos cuz I think I could transfer and adapt some of the character traits you guys Express in two different areas of my personal life. Self-control commitment. Patience and endurance. Having vision and seeing it through to full completion.
respect. I've been chasing a goal for 8 years as well. kept coming up 3, 2 or even 1 point short. a month ago started off poorly but kept with it ... cracked the score by 3 points so feeling your achievement!
Congrats ! Particularly for your persistance, the average person would have given up. Particularly because we live in world where having something “now” is of such high value

@@redditfm4578 There are well done studies that show what your AVERAGE climber should be able to pull based on what grade they can climb. And these are measured on hang boards, not on an actual pull up bar where you have better grip and doesn't require any finger strength. The AVERAGE climber in the highest grades amongst men average at being able to pull 170%+ of their body weight. And that is kind of the baseline requirment strength wise to be able to do it. Emil is just among the most elite climbers physically in the world.
Congratulations dude. I started training Boxe and it's something that i really want to get good at, not to compete or something like that, I just enjoy it.
Congrats Emil, incredible feat of strength. Its a big goal of mine and I can totally relate to the training required needed to progress to this. I'm currently hitting 1-5-8 on both arms but a 1-5-9 feels impossible! Buzzing for you 💪
This is awesome man i been consistently bouldering at a gym for the past half year with maybe a total of a year in experience. I can only climb v6's rn but man I hope I can be that good someday. Your awesome bro keep at it!
Haha funny you should ask, I made a video where I included it here: (th-cam.com/video/V3IZsyJFFAw/w-d-xo.html , a bunch of exercises graded) but personally I gave this V13! Atleast for me :-)
The best way to make something easy is to make it stupid hard first. Well done. My upper body strength got embarrassed and left the room. 😂 I gotta go get it….
Bc your numbers are 1,5,9 right? But he did 1 9 and 17. So you start on one of course so there’s that but then you have the other two numbers. So you take the five and add it to itself minus the one that we started on and what do you get? Nine. So we can do the same with the other one so nine plus itself minus the one we started with and you get seventeen 👍 (I really have no idea but this makes the most sense)
In less than a year i went from not being able to hold to doing 1-4. Not really an amazing accomplishment compared to the video, but still you will be surprised how much you can progress if you take small steps.
@@levone8958 I hope I get that speed of development. Just to know, how old were you when you did that? I'm 20 now, were you a kid when you managed that or are old same age/older?
@@EmilAbrahamssonyou can do it! ;) interesting how the explosiveness of the move relates to sticking it! You clearly see the difference in explosiveness between the old try’s and the send.
Hhahaha top tier comment I’m sure that’s right. Not sure what specifically made the difference, but lots of power training (Kilterboard+some weighted pull-ups+campus training) and creatine
With the strength you have been able to develop, I am sure you would have been able to do it in 2 years, if not less. I am sure you have other things you do, but this is an impressive feat of strength and perseverance.
I’m so proud of you myself, and I don’t climb I am just a veteran who knows the dedication and the feeling of pride once completion of the event you just conquered is
I don’t understand how impressive that is because I’ve only been climbing a few times, but 220# weighted finger pull up is just mind blowing
That's actually not a finger pull up because the grip is very good, but 100kg is crazy.
It’s equivalent to running a 4 1/2 minute mile imo. Very impressive, takes years of work or insane genetics plus natural talent. It’s not the end of the journey, buts a major stepping stone
How do u know it's 225? idk how to read crossfit plates

@Fung Dark the only half reps I'd accept. I wouldn't even be able to hang my fingers with that weight
@ben duggan my body would fold like a sheet of paper with that weight
Agreed.
@@fungdark8270 its not finger pull up, these are jugs ...
Bro.. holy moly, you are crazy strong. Big grats!
And even bigger lats
To put it in perspective, Magnus Midtbo has long wanted to do a 1-5-9 (even including his years competing) and is yet to do it. This is incredible.
My first thought was "I wonder if Magnus could do this 🤔"
@@crossjadam he actually did do it in tokyo ("Trying the Worst rated Climbing Gym in Tokyo") one and double handed
Comparison doesn't really work given the likely difference in wingspans
Height is definitely a factor lol
Intresting
The fact that it took 8 yrs is really inspiring! Makes you realize that all you have to be is patient and consistent and your goal will come true
That weighted finger pull up is beyond comprehension. AMAZING dude. Well done!

Not a finger pull but those hangboard jugs are no joke slippery wood sloper with 100kg on is mind boggling

And by the way, that pull up was amazing.
Damn he must have forearms of a god
Imagine what it'd be like to shake his hand. Most solid grip known to man.
“Strong as ten
regular men.
Definitely!
He's faced the galloping hordes…
A hundred bad guys with swords…
Who sent those goons to their lords?”
I imagine this is the training Nathan Drake did before uncharted
Or an ape! 😅
I’ll be honest, I didn’t know how impressed to be at first, but that pull-up😱😱
Then you step back and realize that that pullup was part of his training to get 1-5-9.
1-5-9 is much harder, he barely has a falange to hang off of if he even has a whole one
I'm 38 and I started rock climbing 4 months ago because I can't skateboard anymore. Climbed my first v2 this week and I'm chuffed.

A Difficult Game About Climbing
Insane! Nice 1 5 9 and insane 100kg pullup on the handboard is also impressive.

: A difficult game about climbing
as someone who does calisthenics, this is an amazing skill. It's basically an explosive one arm pullup but put to use.
So I'm guessing you're Swedish, or maybe Norwegian? The "kom igen" felt very motivating 😂
Yeah swedish!
Yeah, definitely got to to pay attention to his accent

why’s it called a 1-5-9 if you go from the 1st-9th-17th rungs? (i’m uneducated)
ye idk
wait i think it's because he counts the rungs on the left not the right?
In the first clip there’s more rungs. 1-5-9 is on regular campus board with the spaces he described
it's because there's 1,1.5,2,2.5,3 and so on
Bc your numbers are 1,5,9 right? But he did 1 9 and 17.
So you start on one of course so there’s that but then you have the other two numbers. So you take the five and add it to itself minus the one that we started on and what do you get? Nine. So we can do the same with the other one so nine plus itself minus the one we started with and you get seventeen 👍
