I think that's absolutely ridiculous.. it's not even done for a charity of any kind. Can't wait to see the list of their injuries

It doesn't guarantee that they'll be injured... maybe they won't go heavy at all. I don't think this is going to be 24 hours of PRs on the big three lifts.

That is so retarded. There is no way you could go for that long.

Think about it, my workouts never go beyond 45-60. Granted it is a very intense 45-60min, but imagine dropping the intensity and doing that for 24 full hours? That is just retarded.

Seems kinda like a goofy thing to do.

But these guys appear to be going about it in the right way. They are preparing by training for endurance workouts, and that will build their tolerance. If they take the proper stims, then I think that they can pull it off without injury. That assumes they are rational in the intensity department.

My own workouts run about 2 hours, and I've been known to go for 3 hours, on leg day. The workouts I do with my gym clients run 90 minutes, at the minimum. So, I can appreciate what a much longer workout entails. But 24 hours is a bit much.

5 extra minutes of injury time every 5 hours....seems kinda pointless doesnt it? what can you treat in 5 minutes?

EDIT: excluding erections
