Going from tearing one deck of cards to two is like going from a 250 lb. deadlift to 500 lbs…except that you’re also expanding from a normal barbell to a 3″ thick handle at the same time.
104 cards is a lot just to wrap the hands around.
Thus, to reach this goal for me, took some changes in technique, including bracing. And with that it was still an 11 minute intense battle.
In the video below, you’ll see a short reel of the feat followed by the entire thing. Far from pretty, but my big 2024 training goal accomplished.
