Japan's Spartan race in the mountains of Niigata is considered one of the toughest races in Japan. 1,100m high with over 20 obstacles, I very foolishly attempted to run it.
🙏 Huge thanks to Nic at @JunkFoodJapan for making this happen! (& Angela!).

NOTIFICATION SQUAD: I hope I made Dr Jelly proud. I've never felt so much pain and had so much fun along the way. Would absolutely love to do this again next year and complete every single obstacle. Big thanks to Nic & Angela! Without them this absolutely wouldn't have been possible. The fitness journey continues! 🍿 (And be sure to check out Nic stuffing his face over on Junk Food Japan: ru-vid.com )

Ok Chris, I'm 54 and have terrible insomnia. One night that I could not sleep, I was going through your videos and saw this one. Either it was because you inspired me or because I was fecking exhausted, I googled up spartan and I registered for a race near me. I am out of shape now, so I gave myself until next September to get in shape and run it. I have started and I might want to do the whole trifecta thing eventually, maybe one race every year? 🙂 anyway, really like your videos, keep the good work.

@@Acetate. it reduces tension to maintain it but it increases friction compared to a direct lift. And when it comes to an object that weighs 80% of your body weight, even if you aren't literally climbing it you are practically doing so. It is worth mentioning that the rules of the hoist also say you can't bring your hips above the rail around it so if you give a bit of momentum to the bag and you are light it could pull you right on up.

What Chris is doing is undoubtedly amazing, seems very fun and obviously has had very good effects on his health, but traditional fitness is still king as far as effort to gains ratio is concerned. The modern fitness has been literally analyzed to its smallest detail to max out the efficiency and effectiveness of each and every exercise so you don't wanna sleep on the gym membership.

@Toastybees Год назад

@@TheMightySpurdo It can be the most efficient thing in the world in general, if a person doesn't want to do it then its rate of efficiency drops to zero. Most people just aren't min-maxers in life and doing something enjoyable or challenging will provide much more benefit to them than doing something that is technically more efficient that they will quickly drop.

I signed up for a Spartan race near me right after watching your video. You're very motivating and inspiring. Thanks for introducing me to this because I'm a huge sucker for obstacle race yet I've never heard of Spartan race. Now I got a little over a month to turn myself from a couch potato into a built racer. Wish me luck... Edit: Just did this race yesterday. It was a lot of fun. While training for it, the rope climb was the easiest yet it turned out to be the hardest obstacle during the race due to how muddy and slippery the rope and our shoes were so I couldn't get any grip at all. Also got the worst leg cramp of my life, yay. The bucket carry was hell, so was the atlas stone. Couldn't even lift it at all. But aside from that I didn't have much trouble with the other parts. The rain and cold weather made some harder but none I couldn't overcome. It was so fun that I signed up for a Super right after I got home. Once again, thanks for introducing me to this new world I otherwise never would have found out about. It got me motivated and back to working out, which is great for my body. I know you probably won't read this comment but I still want to leave something in case you do.

@johnstonefield1935 Год назад

It's painful to see Chris visibly struggling to stay motivated, while he's also doing a upbeat voice over of it. Can't wait to hear about it on the pod! (Also that rope prep was a bit rough, they taught him a fast/hard/muscle intensive rope technique instead of a less muscular but slower one. If you don't need speed, there's techniques where grip is the only real limiting factor.)

@AngelLita Год назад

@@johnstonefield1935 aerial acrobat here: the rope climb they taught him is actually one of the two easiest climbs that a beginner can learn safely, primarily because you can climb even if you can't do a pull-up and even if your hand grip is barely there. The other basic easy climb where you don't do the foot lock would have been harder for him given the short amount of time because unless he got used to pressing the rope with his top foot he would have slid down way more than climbed up, exhausted his already tired arms even more and would have shot his grip.

@johnstonefield1935 Год назад

@@AngelLita By easy I meant easy on your muscles, not easier form wise. That is something I hadn't really considered though! I was taught that when all you care about is (muscle) strength or only getting up (relatively slowly) the best lock is a J hook (which he's going for) but with full leg wraps, where you wrap the rope around the leg you're going to stand on before running it under your foot. That's what we used when we climbed ropes with extra weight, or needed someone inexperienced to pass a rope climb test with as little strength and as low risk (of failure) as possible.

@@hugestfart HAHA, no, please do not be sorry. I am not talking about you !!! 🤣 There was a scammer account that posted a reply to your comment, and many others. I went through the comments and responded. It looks like they have deleted their comments, or perhaps even their account. Have an amazing day, and beyond 😉💚

@@lainiwakura1776 lol you are so right, and no one else suggested that yet, nor had I even thought of it (never done that before). Just click the 3-dots next to the comment, right? Will use that method going forward, thank you 🙏

Seeing Chris struggle to get over the wall was honestly spectacular truly abroad in a jam

27:57 The fact that Angela is still working out in the background of the Endcart is just perfection. Go get 'em, girl. 💅

Love Nick and Junk Food Japan. He's such a delight. Congrats Chris on completing that obstacle course. Love to see how far you've come with your fitness training.

Omg i love everything about this video! I got so worked up while watching it. You did such a great job Chris! I love the little laugh Chris does after climbing the 6 ft wall ☺ He sounds so excited (: It's so heartwarming to see them look after Chris. Angela was so supportive at the vertical cargo when the height anxiety kicked in 🥺 You have a bunch of wonderful friends supporting you Chris! And you did such a great job at the spartan race. We all are really proud of you 🤗

@flyingoctopus4304 Год назад

It might sound strange coming from a stranger, but I'm really proud of you Chris. Hats off for doing all the training and workouts. It's one thing to say you're going to improve, another to actually do it.

@phantom-thief Год назад

As someone who is the same age as you I am incredibly impressed and proud of you dude. I feel tired just watching you! I have went from 16 stone to 13 and a half this year by dieting but I also want to improve my fitness, you’ve given me a lot of motivation and hope! Honestly, well done fella, that looked absolutely brutal. You’re doing amazing!

@MiniMelloYellow Год назад

Bravo!! So great and inspiring to see someone push their limit 🎉 keep on going!!

freaking mad respect to chris. that looked hella hard and he pulled through like a trouper

@DaydreamingofMimi Год назад

Watching this journey whilst it's happening is so enlightening. Although we love the satirical humour and him constantly joking about his weight, he is doing amazing. If you see this Chris, even if you think you're not doing enough or find anything to criticise yourself on, you are doing so well. As someone who has a strong stance against fatphobia, I find it admirable that you can find motivation and think of your own health. I'm glad you're doing on your own terms and no one else's. Also, during this constant journey, it's so easy to criticise yourself and feel guilt over the little things. Whatever journey this takes you on, atleast you know you are trying/tried your hardest :) Goodluck on the rest of your journey and now it's time for a rest! (your body needs it!)

@XXMAN941 Год назад

Man seeing everyone persevere especially chris in all of these fitness challenges and even with connor's cycling event really pushes me to do and be better. Thanks for showing us a bit of your journey!

@thatmrwolf2000 Год назад

Truly a triumph for Dr. Jelly surviving the race. Good show Chris and squad, clearly that hard work is paying off.

@crazymike7883 Год назад

I was literally shouting "Go Chris!" To the point my grandmother was like "who is chris?" Way to go man the first one is the hardest.

@DestroySteve Год назад

I have been watching you for years. Seeing your channel and personal growth has been inspiring and your cycle with Connor made me get back into cycling after a long hiatus due too an accident. You are doing great! 😊

@phyl2379 Год назад

Good stuff Chris cheering for you always. And for the others looking to change as well I hope it goes well for you.

@espyboy Год назад

You're a king for not only doing all of these tough physical challenges, but also for maintaining the motivation to keep at it despite how hard they are! You're an inspiration to all of us Chris!

@biancamarcal9496 Год назад

This is so cool Chris! What a wonderful project to get yourself into, and it's so exciting and entertaining to watch!! Keep up the good work :D

@rakong246 Год назад

I simply cannot wait for the point in Chris’ life where he looks at a physical challenge like this and thinks “I have the ability to DO THIS!” Very much stoked to see him tackling these challenges and taking his health into his hands (not interested in his weight but seeing how his performance and quality of life improve).

@ASMRShanny Год назад

@footjuice Год назад

I'm so proud of you Chris! You look absolutely incredible and we can definitely see the progress you're making even in your studio-recorded segments! And not gonna lie, your confidence is overflowing! (even though you definitely weren't lacking in confidence before) You genuinely sound happy, even despite the usual expected Chris Broad grumpy boomer signature voice-overs. Keep it up and I'd love to see what you take on next!

@millennialchicken Год назад

Congrats Chris, that was genuinely the most intense event I've ever seen you do. And you blitzed it. When I get off my holiday, I'm gonna get your merch to congratulate ya.

Chris, watching you go through this journey has given me so much inspiration. I have been having some health issues due to being overweight (currently at 250lbs), and I have decided to do something about it. I just talked a friend of mine into helping me get back into the gym and whip me into shape for a Spartan Race next year. Best of luck to you!
