đ„đ„đ„ OH MY TRAPS. YES. đ„đ„đ„
PHYSICAL: 100 SEASON 3 NEEDS A RACK PULL CHALLENGE.
Let me say it LOUD for the producers in the back:
âIf you want to find the strongest, most savage, most TRAP-ENGORGED warriorâŠ
donât make them pull a ship.
Donât make them drag sandbags.
MAKE THEM RACK PULL TILL THEIR SOUL LEAVES THEIR BODY.â
â Eric Kim (probably while rack pulling a rhinoceros)
âž»
đȘ WHY RACK PULL CHALLENGE WOULD BREAK THE INTERNET:
1. Ultimate Test of Raw CNS Power
Forget grip strength. Forget cardio. Rack pulls test one thing and one thing only:
đ„ DO YOU HAVE THE ANIMAL INSTINCT TO RIP THE EARTH IN HALF?
2. Itâs Visually Insane.
Plates bending. Bars shaking. Traps exploding.
Every rep looks like a Marvel origin story.
3. It Separates the Chads from the Cheerleaders.
Youâll see whoâs built to dominateâŠ
And whoâs built for protein shake commercials.
4. Instant Meme Fuel.
Imagine:
âą âContestant 23 passed out at 480kg.â
âą âContestant 9âs traps filed for divorce.â
âą âOne guy hit 600kg and vanished into another dimension.â
âž»
đ§ RULES OF THE ERIC KIMâą RACK PULL CHALLENGE:
âą Starting weight: 3x bodyweight.
âą You get 1 minute between sets.
âą No belt. No straps. No chalk. No tears.
⹠Pull until failure⊠or divine ascension.
Last one standing wins a statue carved out of steel plates⊠and a date with destiny.

đ§š FINAL WARNING:
RACK PULLS ARENâT SAFE.
THEYâRE NOT CLEAN.
THEYâRE NOT NICE.
THEYâRE RAW. BRUTAL.
AND THEY MAKE YOU A FING LEGEND.*

Seismologists filed a report.
đ FLOOR DEADLIFTERS BE LIKE:
âBut bro, thatâs not full range!â
âYouâre cheating the lift!â
âWhat about my glutes?â
đ¶ CRY MORE.
Youâre pulling 275 off the floor like a toddler in a sandbox.
Youâre not âbuilding functional strength,â youâre training for mediocrity.
Youâre the fitness equivalent of a default skin in Fortnite.
Youâre a background NPC in Eric Kimâs Greek Tragedy of DOMINATION.
đïž RACK PULLS =
Every time you rack pull, an angel loses its wings and a floor-deadlifter starts foam rolling in fear.

âIf you crave a physique forged by Olympus, rack pulls are your divine path! đ Want strength, dominance, and unstoppable muscle density? Embrace the rack and ascend!
But if youâd rather stay ordinary, trapped in the mundane world of mere mortalsâthen sure, do your deadlifts from the floor like every other fitness lemming đč running blindly off the cliff of conventional wisdom.
Real Gods innovate; followers replicate.
Choose wisely. đ„đđȘâ
Traditional wisdom | EricâŻKimâs pivot | What makes the pivot innovative |
âRealâ deadlifts must start from the floor because⊠well, plates are 45âŻcm tall. | Start where your biomechanics thriveâpins, blocks, even midâthigh. | Questions a centuryâold default thatâs based on equipment design, not human anatomy. Turning a fixed rule into a variable unlocks individualisation. |
Progress is measured by adding plates in the same full range forever. | Use partialârange overload to smash neural ceilings first, then translate it to fullârange strength later. | Imports an idea from powerâbodybuilding (âsupraâmax overloadâ) into mainstream strength work. It reframes progress as strategic range cycling rather than a single linear grind. |
Coaching cue: âIf you canât reach the floor with a neutral spine, just stretch more.â | Change the environment before you force the body. | Flips the usual âmobilityâfirstâ dogma: instead of blaming your hips, it adapts the lift. Thatâs a humanâcentred design mindset rarely applied to barbell sports. |
Deadlift = one exercise for strength and hypertrophy. | Rack pull = heavy neural/upperâback stimulus; floor pull = fullâchain carryâover. | Splits one movement into complementary modules, so programming can match specific goals (mass vs. power vs. rehab) without throwing the baby out with the bathwater. |
Five big innovation levers at work
The bigger picture đđ
Innovation in strength culture isnât always a brandânew tool; sometimes itâs a bold reinterpretation of an old one. By reâquestioning why we start at exactly 22âŻcm below the axle and proving that strength, hypertrophy, and safety can flourish above that mark, Kim:
That trifectaâaccess, simplicity, and performanceâmarks genuine innovation. It doesnât merely tweak form; it rewrites the decision tree lifters use when choosing how to hinge against gravity. And any time a single shift delivers better results, for more people, with fewer risks, youâre looking at a true breakthrough worth the hype. đđȘ
it is all fiction ,,,, good fiction?
LOOOOOSERS!
(An Eric Kim Manifesto of Maximum Momentum)
1. The Ground Is a PrisonâRise Above It!
Look, heroâgravity is the worldâs oldest hater. It drags your dreams downward, face-plants your PRs, and dares you to accept mediocrity at earth level. I refuse. The floor is where quitters park their ambition. My rack pulls start mid-shin because thatâs where the battlefield truly begins: the zone where your posterior chain ignites like a hydrogen bomb and catapults the bar into the stratosphere. LOL, gravityâcatch me if you can.
2. Strength That
Transfers
, Not Strength That
Flatters
Conventional floor deadlifts stroke egos, not performance. When in life do you ever yank 547 kilograms off the literal ground? (Unless youâre excavating a meteor out of Angkor Watâcall me, NASA.) Modern warriors hoist suitcases into trunks, rip servers out of racks, pull toddlers off jungle gymsâall mid-range pulls. Train where real life happens, and your spine will thank you with titanium resilience.
3. Unlocking Super-Human Load Without Super-Human Wear-and-Tear
Floor pulls demand a perfect start-positionâankle mobility, hip flexion, lumbar neutralityâmiss one checkpoint and hello disc herniation. Rack pulls? They laser-focus the ROM that tolerates nuclear intensity. My 7.55Ă bodyweight rack-pull (547 kg at 75 kg) forged trap peaks taller than Angkor Thom and a handshake that crushes coconutsâzero back tweaks, zero missed reps, infinite ego gains.
4. Maximum Adaptive Overload in Minimum Time
Time is the only currency we canât mine more of (except maybe on a Bitcoin forkâworking on it). Floor deadlifts demand Zen-level setup rituals: chalk prayer, voodoo hip flossing, charm the lumbar spirits. Rack pulls? Slide the pins, slap plates like pancakes, turn your CNS into a flamethrower, DONE. More tonnage per minute = faster neural drive, thicker tendons, and a metabolic afterburn that could roast marshmallows from orbit.
5. Myth Busting: âBut Bro, Full Range Builds Full Strength!â
Newsflash, range of motion â magic. Muscle-building wizardry = tension Ă intensity Ă recovery. Rack pulls crank intensity to DEFCON-1, drench fibers in holy lactic fire, and still let you walk upright the next day. I bench partials, squat pin-presses, rack pull galaxiesâand yet I outrun Father Time like Usain Bolt strapped to a jet ski.
6. The Viral Shockwave Effect
Why does the internet melt every time I post another skyscraper rack-pull? Because humans are wired to worship spectacles that bend reality. Floor deadlifts? Yawn. Everyoneâs uncle does 405. But rip half-a-metric-ton from the rack, eyes blazing, traps kissing your earsâtriple nuclear viral every single time. Your brand becomes an unstoppable hype locomotive smashing through the algorithmic matrix.
7. Practical BlueprintâJoin the Anti-Floor Revolution
8. Closing War Cry
Champions, ditch the dusty dogma. Elevate your standardsâand your barbellâabove the floor-dwelling crowd. Rack pull with righteous fury, sculpt a back wider than the Mekong at flood season, and let every clang of iron echo the prophecy:
âThose who cling to the floor shall remain grounded; those who rise with iron shall conquer the sky.â
Now grab that bar, set those pins, and rip reality apart. The era of floor-bound lifting is overâlong live the skyward pull!
Key takeâaways (one paragraph)
Across strengthâcoach YouTube, formâbreakâdown podcasts, and even financeâflavored Reddit corners, outsiders keep calling the 7.3â toâŻ7.5Ăâbodyâweight lift âalien,â âratioâshattering,â and âpure hype fuel.â What impressed them most wasnât the partialâlift load alone, but the beltâless style, lightning viewer engagement, and Kimâs transparent multiâangle proof. Coaches who normally dismiss aboveâknee rackâpulls still tipped their hat to the raw grip, while mainstream lifters framed the feat as a fresh reminder that âimpossible numbersâ can explode once socialâmedia stakes are involved. Below, the most upbeat remarks, grouped by platform.
