- I'm a pro skater, man.
What are you talking about?
(gentle music)
- Stay tuned guys.
- We are about to embark on a journey.
(airplane engines whirling)
(pop music)
- [Chris] Just landed in Toronto, Canada.
It was a quick trip
but I was super excited to be here.
After this it's the Netherlands.
But for now called the Uber, and we were out.
(bright pop music)
- Where we at?
- 527.
Can I skate in here?
Whoa!
- And we are home.
- It's skate friendly?
Perfect spot man what are you talking about?
We ain't getting kicked out.
- [Man] Ready to go to Chris's steakhouse?
- Either that or we could go to the dinner here.
Alright, we gonna get some grub.
(upbeat pop music)
- [Camera Man] Scooter, Scooter.
(cars passing)
- Whoa, what the fuck?
(Chris mumbles)
I'll kill you, dawg.
- Skater destroyed man not that skated much.
After dropping off the bags,
we met up with Charan and Mike,
the owners of Rise Gym.
(slow jam music)
Seeing Charan in person was super dope
because he goes way back with THENX.
Before the App.
Back when THENX was just the website
and it was one dollar the first month.
Yo, I like those glasses, bro.
Those are tight frame, bro.
- This guy is always stylish.
- Really?
So what's the plan for tonight?
- Mayhem.
(Charan laughs)
- We have like, uh, a specialty workout.
- Okay.
- Don't know if you're down to try it out.
A lot of pushing strength, a little bit of endurance.
It's a fun time.
But we'll check it out, and if you're down for it--
- I'm fucking down for whatever, man.
(perky electronic music)
Let's go, let's go.
(skateboard wheels grinding)
Ah, let's go.
(cheering)
Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics,
pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups.
- Alright, let's step in the gym.
Let's step in the fucking sanctuary--
- [Mike] This is where the magic happens.
(deep bass music)
- Honestly, this reminds me of THENX New Year's.
(laughing)
Let's get to work.
We're about to work out at the Rise Gym.
We got Mike on deck, we got Charan on deck,
we got the whole crew.
Let's go, let's go. - Let's get it.
- [Chris] It's over.
You already know we couldn't
visit Toronto without getting a workout.
Tonight's workout was going to be a warm-up of
weighted muscle-ups,
straight-bar dips,
and pull-ups.
After the warm-up, we went into the routine.
10 wide pull-ups,
100 push-ups,
50 dips,
20 toaster bar.
A couple rounds of that should kill you.
(upbeat bass music)
To finish off the routine, we did one of my favorite drills.
45 seconds hand-stand then switch off
to 45 seconds farmer walks.
And after a couple rounds of these,
I was ready to call it a night
to conserve the rest of my energy for the workshop.
These guys are officially certified.
Chris Heria certified, man.
- [Charan and Mike] Oh yeah! - They train hard as f--
- Good sleep? - Yeah, little bit.
- Yeah?
- Yo.
- It's gonna be unreal.
Let's go.
(deep bass music)
- [Zay] So guys, first and foremost,
I just want to thank all of you guys for coming out.
We're honestly honored to be here.
Thank you guys for having us, thanks Mike, Charan,
everyone here from Project Rise.
It's an honor to be here.
Before Chris comes out,
we're just going to do a quick warm-up.
Do some stretching, get that blood flow going.
(deep bass music)
(clapping and cheering)
- Nice to meet you, Crosby.
- Maya.
- Charles.
- Nice to meet you, Charles.
- Venom.
- What's up?
- Bruce.
- Chalil.
- Chalil?
Nice to meet you, man.
- Kat.
Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you, too.
- Sumet.
- Thank you so much, Sumet? - Yeah.
- Alright, thank you so much.
Let's get this party started.
Alright, is everybody ready?
Is everybody warmed up?
(cheering)
Man, oh, man!
Today, everybody is going to be mastering.
(clapping)
(dramatic piano music)
The main focus of this workshop
was hand-balancing and full planks training.
- It was incredible.
Great vibe, positive energy, really good for the community.
- You have to fight me.
I can either pull you this way,
you have to stop it with your fingertips, you see?
Once you're here, remember,
as straight as long as you can.
- Very informative.
Most important thing is just seeing everybody happy,
seeing them,
like cheerful that the THENX team was here,
that makes me happy.
- You want to push these hips back
and keep the feet forward like that.
(deep bass music)
- Getting to meet Chris,
getting to meet the whole THENX team is fantastic.
(soft piano music)
- This is a move right here,
this is a very advanced movement.
Most people in gymnastics train their whole lives
to be able to do this just to hold for three seconds.
And then they lose it after a competition,
so this is actually a pretty advanced move.
We're going to show you guys how to get it and keep it.
(piano and deep bass music)
So push a little less next time,
so every single time you do it,
you have a new gauge made until you're right there
on the dial, like, this is as much energy
as I can do and aim.
(clapping)
These girls are strong.
Another great, successful workshop.
Super proud of everybody that came through
and attended the workshop.
You guys really put in the work.
I'm so proud of you guys.
- The workshop today was phenomenal.
The whole THENX team was absolutely amazing.
The knowledge that was shared is second to none.
It's truly, truly an honor to have everybody here.
(deep bass music)
- Appreciated so much, bro.
Alright, I think it's a wrap.
No more pictures.
We gotta go.
- Already, I'm a step ahead everyone, so
Thank you so much, Chris.
Appreciate you having here.
All the love.
(deep bass music)
(underground communication)
- Hey boys, hey.
Right here.
Yo, right here.
Alright,
(laughing)
right?
Hey, it's Chris, thanks for watching.
The THENX team and I are out on Europe
doing workshops and meet and greets right now,
so if you want to attend any one of our events,
sign up right now to thenx.com/blog/events

Mad love.
Peace out.
