Sometimes you’ll be scrolling on social media, and you’ll see something that stops you in your tracks.
We’ve all seen some impressive things at the gym – after all, it’s a place where we go to better ourselves.
Everyone’s motivation is different. Some people will be there to hit PB’s, some will want to be more confident with their bodies, and others may be there to improve their overall fitness to lead a healthier lifestyle.
No matter what your motivation is, the most important thing is getting out of the house and through the doors of the gym – that’s the hardest part over.
There might be times when you don’t want to go, and your mind will be flooded with excuses.
But for Zack Ruhl, there are no excuses. You see, Zack was born with a medical condition that meant he had to have both legs amputated when he was two years old.
But Zack still hits the gym, and he’s setting bars that a lot of us can only aspire to hit.
One of his recent videos shows him deadlifting 445lbs while being inventive with how he uses the gym equipment.
A bench has been placed on some weights to lift it in the air, in order for Zack to get onto the bench and deadlift the bar that is below him.
After hyping himself up, Zack reached down and moved that bar through the air as people watched on in amazement.
And safe to say, those who have seen the video are very impressed.
One person commented: “This might be one of the most impressive things I’ve ever seen. Good on ya brother!”
A second person said: “Absolutely outstanding sir. Not only can you lift more than most your mindset is STRONG.”
While a third added: “If no one hasn’t mentioned it yet, but the grip strength!!! Whaaaat? That’s insane!”
A fourth noted: “That’s gotta be one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen.”
Zack’s Instagram page is full of him doing incredibly impressive things in the gym, and it’s well worth checking out.
Keep smashing it, Zack!
