Arthur did 107 muscle-ups without coming off the bar in a 34-minute set at his gym in Christchurch, New Zealand, filmed in one uncut take by a phone on the floor while other members trained around him. A muscle-up takes the body from hanging below a bar to holding it up above the bar, and Arthur swung each one up with a knee tuck, then rested on top between reps, sometimes for close to a minute. His rules banned touching the ground and chicken-wing reps, where one elbow hooks over the bar before the other, and RecordSetter counted every rep on his original phone file. He shares his climb from a single chicken-wing muscle-up to this set on his YouTube channel, Arthur's Fitness.

Mutis Dragos loaded a 45-degree plate-loaded leg press with 30 plates of 20 kilograms, 600 kilograms in all, at a gym in Bucharest, Romania, and ran through ten slow calf raises without a leg strap. The continuous video opens with a pan across the stacked horns on both sides of the sled, then circles round to show both legs locked straight while the ankles alone drive the sled through every rep. That's more than half a tonne, about 1,322 pounds, pushed around by a pair of calves.

Stefan Popovic loaded 354 pounds of plates onto a seated tricep press machine at a gym in Calgary, Canada, and pressed it for five full reps. The handheld video circles the machine during the set, showing the stacked plates as he drives the handles from bent elbows down to straight arms, with a short pause before the last rep. RecordSetter counted all five lockouts in the continuous clip. Not bad for a lifter who says he weighs under 185 pounds.

Matthew Lawson loaded a 35-degree plate-loaded leg press to 790 kilograms at a gym in Bathurst, Australia, locked his knees and pushed the sled up onto his toes using nothing but his calves. The continuous video shows his legs staying straight as the sled rises, holds at the top and comes back down under control, and he then walks the camera around the machine to show the stacks of bumper plates and 20 kg plates loaded on the sled. That's more than three-quarters of a tonne, lifted by a pair of calves.
