Spain

Most Reps In Dragon Flag Cadence Test

jose manuel martin molina

Jose Manuel Martin Molina lies on an outdoor exercise bench in Ayamonte, Spain, grips the handle behind his head and swings his body straight up onto his shoulders, silhouetted against a low sun. He lowers his straight body slowly toward the bench, pulls back up to the top and repeats nine times before he tucks and sits up. RecordSetter timed every descent frame by frame in the single continuous take, from the top of each rep to the bottom, and they average about 10 seconds. It looks calm against the sky, which is exactly what makes it hard.
