- What's up, Elite Thenx athletes?
It's Chris Heria.
Welcome to another video of Official Thenx.
Today I'm here with the legend, Mike Rashid.
- Mike mother fucking Rashid.
- That's right.
And we're gonna go with a sick back and bicep workout.
Let's do it.
("Ark" by Ship Wrek)
All right, so let's get this work out started.
The first thing we're gonna do
is reverse Australian chin-ups.
Then we're going into weighted pull-ups,
then weighted chin-ups, bar curls, pendlay rows,
one arm assisted pull-ups, and then finally we're gonna
go for the rope climb.
We wanna do this four times to complete this work out.
So the first one, reverse Australian chin-ups.
I'll go first.
I'll go for a deep angle.
Start from the top.
(techno music)
Last one's tough.
All right, you got it bro. - Ah, shit.
- [Chris] You got it.
- Just so y'all know,
I'm completely out of my element.
Never done this before.
- [Chris] You got this.
- But I'm always up for a challenge.
My man, Chris, is a beast.
Want to be a beast, you got to train the beast.
- Let's do it.
(techno music)
Nice.
- All right, I'm done.
That's it.
Good work out guys.
- That is definitely a tough move, man.
I remember I did that move on one of my
other YouTube channels and they were like
"Dude, why don't you just do dumbbell curls?"
- Why be ordinary?
- Right?
All right, so were going to go for
weighted pull ups.
That's next.
(techno music)
All right.
Here we go.
(techno music)
More.
- [Mike] You got to show off Chris, you got it down.
That's easy dude, you got to show off man.
Shit. - No man, this is every day.
- All right.
- [Chris] You got to do it every day.
You got this brother, it's light weight.
Light weight.
- Everything is light weight, baby.
- [Chris] It's true.
It's about that mind set.
- Quick tip, quick life hack for you all out there
listening in YouTube land.
When you hear people say light weight, it's easy,
I always say "This is fucking easy, everything is easy."
I don't care how hard people think it is,
you got to fucking psych yourself out.
Because you go into it thinking it's hard,
it's going to be hard.
You're mentally defeating yourself.
You know, real strength, real power is in the mind.
It's psychological, all right?
So with that being said, this is fucking easy.
(techno music)
Ah, that's a good stretch.
- All right,
actually we have weighted chin-ups next
so we're going to go overload on that bicep.
Let's go for it.
It's like with each exercise this just gets more easy.
It's like I feel like I can do more reps, like those.
- See, ordinary people get tired as they go along,
we get stronger.
I'm weak when I start,
I find my finish like,
so give me more. - He's a beast.
That's right.
You know what? - I get greedy with it.
- It's all true.
- [Mike] Greedy with the gang.
Let's hit it baby.
- I'm going to get greedy with it.
(techno music)
You know, I've got to go up when I got the lion behind me.
So I'm going to go for it.
- You know what?
The lion is one of my favorite animals
but I've got a couple others.
But I'm actually making a transition, I'm evolving.
What do you say I can evolve to next, Chris?
If I told you I'm evolving out of a lion,
what would you think is next?
- [Chris] Brother, there ain't nothing after that.
- [Mike] An elephant, baby.
- An elephant?
- Elephant.
- I've seen a lion take down an elephant.
- [Mike] Bigger, stronger, wiser.
- That's true.
- Live longer.
- [Chris] That is true, it's not all about--
- Don't eat meat.
- That's true.
Let's get it.
- Oh, under.
(techno music)
Easy money, baby.
- That's it, that's it.
Ain't nothing but a peanut.
(both laughs)
- I don't know what that mean, though.
- Ain't nothing but a peanut?
- I don't know what the fuck that means.
- [Chris] Man. - It sounds cool,
but what the fuck does that mean?
- [Chris] That's true. - Nothing but a peanut?
- [Chris] I don't even know what the hell it means.
- You talking about Ronnie?
- [Chris] (laughs) Ronnie.
Yo he's the homie though,
bro, you know that.
- That's his stuff.
- All right, next one, bar curls.
I'm going to take it down here.
All right, here.
We're going to curl to the forehead.
(techno music)
- [Mike] Come on.
Come on.
- That's all I've got.
Let's do it.
That's it.
That's a tough one, man.
- I can see that.
- That one's sick.
That's how you get that peak in your bicep.
(techno music)
That's that natural high.
- [Mike] Yeah.
- [Chris] All right, pendlay rows, let's do this.
The reason why we put it down is so,
normally the hardest part is first picking it up
and after that you can just go on for reps.
So we're going to do the hardest part every single time.
You ready?
- [Mike] Yes.
- Let's do it.
- [Mike] Same? - [Chris] Yep,
let's do it at the same time.
Here we go.
(techno music)
Whew!
He just keeps going.
Sick, sick, sick.
All right, back to the bars.
One arm assisted pull-ups.
This is when the work out gets interesting.
Like Mike said, the more you do, the stronger you get.
So now we're just using one arm.
Let's go for it.
I'll go first.
(techno music)
Let's do it.
Come on.
- [Mike] Come on.
Come on.
- I'm going to go back up.
Got to finish it.
- [Mike] Nice.
- Whoo, all right.
You got this, Mike.
- Chris, you trying to turn me into a ninja?
- [Chris] You're already a ninja, bro.
- I think I need some snappers.
We've got to get Snapchat ready.
Y'all know how it is,
this day and age if there ain't no video,
ain't no footage, it didn't happen.
(techno music)
Oh, shit.
Shit, that's hard.
- [Chris] Damn, Mike.
How much are you pulling up there on one arm?
- Huh?
- [Chris] How much are you pulling up there on one arm?
How much you weigh now?
- Like 230.
- [Chris] Damn.
- Too damn much.
- [Chris] Too damn much for one arm.
- 200 and much.
- All right, we're going to go with the
grand finale, right here.
- Ah, shit.
- [Chris] I don't do this often.
- Get ready to laugh at me.
(metal clanging)
- All right, I'm going to start on the floor.
(techno music)
- [Mike] Come on.
All right.
Impressive.
- [Chris] Whew.
Damn.
(Mike clapping)
- [Mike] Impressive, bro.
- [Chris] Jesus, you've got this, Mike.
It's a mind set, you've got this Mike.
Keep it going, keep it going, don't stop.
- [Mike] Whew, I'm burned out.
- Well, that is tough.
- I'm burned out.
- [Chris] Tough, tough, tough.
There you guys have it.
This is a sick, sick, sick work out.
If you're up to the challenge, I want to see all the
YouTubers out there try to do
like me and Mike do right here.
- And I'm going to have to work on these rope climbs.
- And we get it every day, man.
Mike is right across the street from me.
- It's a goal of mine.
- So, we're training all the time.
- Cool, thank you, man.
Thank you, my man.
- Dude, you rock, man.
Definitely check out Mike Rashid.
