Christopher Schwab Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Hey guys, I was watching some calisthenics videos for workout motivation when I saw a man perform what appears to be the CTI (close to impossible) move. There's not really that much information on it out there, but what I want to know is would this be considered a "strict good form" CTI? Here's the link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=49uRwMC46nQ#t=528s It starts @ 8.47 Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian Sørlie Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 What George said. The guy from around 9 to 11 had some cool moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Schwab Posted July 1, 2013 Author Share Posted July 1, 2013 Ah what a shame ;-) Still an absolutely beastly feat of strength, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alessandro Mainente Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 this is not the first post about CTI, search over the forum...there are some our pretty considerations about the real possibility to do the CTI.for the rest i can say "look with more attention" his feet are pushing over the straight vertical bar eliminating all the problems concerned with grid and body slide under the bar.don't you think WHY he is performing it over a T bar and not over a single horizontal bar?CTI is for the dreamers who have poor physics knowledge....

Ralph Palutke Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 i've read a few posts about the CTI here on the board. in result the meaning was that the move isn't possible.i've now found this video: What do you think about it? in my opinion it's not perfect but pretty damn close. is it fake??

Christian Sørlie Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 So much discussion about this video has been going on here already. i think people ended up saying it was a fake. Search CTI and go on the one that has like a million pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Weaver Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Why don't we just change the name to 'Impossible'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Palutke Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 As far as i know 'impossible' revers to a real triceps extension on pbars. At least in calisthenics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Whitley Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 I guess this is more of a strange wrist supported wide arm front lever than the CTI, but its still damn impressive to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Sørlie Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 CTCTI ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he does a wide grip "impossible" to a straddle maltese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
