"Brother Qiang, I saw you!" a passerby laughed.
"Right? We never play games. I'll pay whoever can pull it up. It's that simple. I've prepared a lot of cash today. I've always heard that there are a lot of bodybuilding hunks in Shanghai, so I came here today to try and see if it's true!"
"How much does your dumbbell weigh?" asked a passerby.
"120 kilograms."
"120... kilograms?"
"Hey, sure. If a normal man can lift 120 pounds, then what's the challenge?"
“Is this your heaviest dumbbell?”
"That's not the case. I still have 130KG and 160KG ones here, but there are very few who can lift 120, so I won't take out the other two. But if anyone can successfully challenge 120KG and wants to try heavier dumbbells, I can also take them out." The man called Brother Qiang said with a smile.
"So how much is the reward if someone pulls up 160 kg?"
"Haha, although it's a little unlikely, since you asked, I'll answer. If anyone can successfully lift 120kg plus 160kg today, I'll reward them 10,000 on the spot!"
Brother Qiang paused for a second, raised his hand and shouted, "No, no, no, 20,000!"
Hearing this, the crowd suddenly became excited.
"Fuck!"
"Really?!"
"It has to be true! I have over three million followers on Douyin, and I'm live streaming the whole time. Who would follow me if I couldn't afford it? Right, haha."
"Okay, okay, then anyone can challenge me?"
"Anyone can do it. It doesn't cost a penny. It's a free challenge. If you think you can do it, come on. The purpose of this challenge is actually to promote national fitness. The boys in our country must be fierce!"
"Well said! Then I'll do it!" A strong man about 1.85 meters tall and weighing about 180 kilograms raised his hand.
Brother Qiang glanced at him and smiled, "Good! Your size looks good, very promising. Come when you're ready!"
Su Yang and Han Suyan stood at the back and watched. Han Suyan smiled and said, "It looks quite interesting."
"Do you want to try it?"
Han So-yeon nodded: "Well, I want to try the 120kg one. I think I can do it with both hands."
"Really? 240 pounds? Are you that strong?"
"Don't look at me because I'm thin, but I'm quite strong. I often exercise when I have nothing to do."
"Really? Then let's go a little further in."
"Okay." The two said as they squeezed into the crowd.
At this time, the young man was already standing in the middle of the 120KG dumbbells. After Brother Qiang told him the simple operation method, he bent down and stretched out his right hand to hold the dumbbell bar.
"Huh!" The boy took a deep breath and moved his feet, then grabbed the dumbbells with all his strength and pulled them up.
The crowd stared at him intently and cheered him on.
“Push harder!!”
“Pull it up!!”
The noisy crowd attracted many passers-by, but the boy couldn't pull it up no matter how hard he tried.
"Whoosh!! Get up!" He tried again, but the dumbbell was still welded to the ground.
"Watch your waist!" Brother Qiang immediately walked up and shouted when he saw that the boy couldn't pull himself up.
The boy let go of his hand, shook his head and laughed: "No, no, it's too heavy."
"Haha, your strength should be OK, but your grip strength is a little lacking. If you can't hold on, it will be difficult to pull it up."
"I give up, you guys come." The boy turned around a little embarrassedly and slipped into the crowd and left quietly.
Brother Qiang looked at everyone and said again: "This thing is definitely a bit difficult, so everyone must do it according to their ability and be sure not to hurt your back."
At this time, a middle-aged woman asked, "Did you tamper with this dumbbell and it got stuck in the ground?"
"Hey? Sister, what are you talking about? Didn't I demonstrate it just now? Everyone agrees, right?"
"Yes, yes, there's no need for such a big internet celebrity to lie."
"Yeah, if you think there's something wrong, why don't you go get it checked out?"
"Yes, these are just dumbbells I dragged out of the gym. If you think there are any problems, you can come and check them out."
After hearing what Brother Qiang said, the middle-aged woman stopped talking.
"Okay, let's continue. Who is the next warrior?!" Brother Qiang opened his arms and looked at everyone, expecting someone to come up and try.
At this time, a plus-sized girl wearing tight yoga pants came out.
She was about 175cm tall, wearing a pink tight training vest and gray yoga pants. She looked to be at least 140kg, with a very domineering figure, a thin waist and wide hips, and her legs were thicker than most boys' waists.
Seeing this, Brother Qiang said, "Welcome, welcome. How come you guys aren't as brave as this girl? What do you call a beautiful girl?"
"Just call me Chenchen."
"Chenchen, right? Are you ready?"
"Okay, girls can use two hands, right?"
"Yes, but it has to be straightened. I just told you the rules."
"I know, I saw you."
"Yeah, then you must know the rules. Come on, pull it up and you'll get a 3,000 reward."
"Okay." The fitness girl walked forward and stood between the dumbbells with her legs open.
Su Yang laughed softly at this time: "Do you think she can pull it up?"
Han Suyan nodded: "I think it's okay. She's quite strong."
Su Yang shook his head and smiled: "I think it's a bit risky. This thing doesn't just depend on weight. Grip strength, waist and abdomen, and leg strength are all important."
As the two were talking, the girl bent down, grabbed the dumbbell bar with both hands and pulled it up hard.
