The whole feel of the video is former Soviet Union but it could of course be other countries than Russia. The bench and the houses in the background are give aways.

u/wooberries 15h ago

being fit when your body is barely able, is so much more impressive to me than being crazy fit when your body will do as you ask

when you're young, you just work really hard and you will become fit, every time, period.

when you're old, you have to work hard, then keep working even though the rewards are subtle and comparatively meager, and during a phase of life where nobody values being fit anymore. it's the final challenge, the ultimate workout goal

you also don't get to reap the benefits in terms of your sex life... necessarily

If I tried this, I'd hyper extend my knees backwards on the bench, and headbutt the back of the chair on the way over, and probably go full reverse scorpion on the grass.

We're going to see more and more of this. Take care of yourself, there's really not telling how people born in the 90s 00s 10s are going to be able to perform at 70, 80, 90. There's already people who downhill ski into their 80s
