Young Ukrainians showing off some serious upper body strength at the park
The World Street Workout Federation is an organization that launched in Latvia in 2011 in order to mobilize and coordinate a sport that “is constantly gaining recognition and popularity worldwide as a social movement and a democratic sporting activity.”
The idea is that the world is your gym and you don’t need anything but the desire to exercise in order to become crazy strong. It seems to have worked out pretty well for these guys in Kiev…
(Music is NSFW, unfortunately.)

I don’t know about a desire to exercise or to be crazy strong, but I know it takes some crazy strength to swing and hang like that!
Shwow!
not just muscular but exemplary control as well. Wow.

Impressive stuff. A group called Bar Starzz has been doing this for a few years in NYC. Some of the Ukranian moves look like some of the NYC moves; another example of whites stealing style from blacks?
I can barely do Wii Fit without collapsing.
I feel like doing some push-ups right now.
Incredible, mad skills!
