Before Fame

He started his YouTube channel in May 2017, going viral in April 2020, when he started researching how to do the front lever and one-arm pullups. He realized that the training required that he be able to pull an extra 70 to 80 percent of his bodyweight and built up his strength by using his wife as the extra bodyweight, posting the videos to incredulous viewers online. 

Trivia

He was featured on Yahoo News, Men's Health, Climbing.com, and more for his impressive feat of learning a one-arm pullup and being able to hold his wife while doing a pullup in 2020. Since then, he has also gained followers for his stretching routine, hang board training, learning a handstand, and more.
