Putin's tough guy warlord Ramzan Kadyrov ridiculed over 'push-ups' on Russian TV
Daily Star UK ^ | 12/31/2022 | James Sweetnam

Vladimir Putin's notorious warlord Ramzan Kadyrov bizarrely tried to impress Russian TV viewers with some push-ups but ended up being ridiculed online for his efforts.

His attempt at showing off his athletic prowess didn't exactly work out the way he expected with viewers of the clip slamming his poor technique.

The warlord, who rose to power in 2007, allegedly utilises brutal governing tactics over his fiercely militaristic state apparatus that has waged several wars throughout his rule.

The 46-year-old has developed a reputation for using bloody solutions to his problems, including several boasts about his actions in Ukraine, but his hard man image was damaged on his recent TV appearance.

During his showing on Russian TV, he attempted several push-ups, but lacked the proper technique. In a strange turn of events, spectators watched on as he failed to reach full extension.

Consequently, the public have taken to Twitter to voice their opinion.

One man said: "Those aren’t push-ups. He looks like he’s head-butting the floor. A push-up uses the whole of the upper body strength and should be done in a controlled way. These hard men leaders are pathetic."

Another observer claimed: "These are all a 'no go' at US Army Airborne School.

An American army colonel added: "As we say in the Marines.... 'Annnnd begin....1....1....1.....1.' He's still stuck on one pushup."

Great form is common to all tyrants, it seems.

Reminds me of Jack Palance and his pushups, many years ago during the Oscars.

I saw the video and also noticed him adjusting his coat in the middle of the push ups. Meaning he was casually on one arm for a bit and he didn’t have to spread his legs to stay stable.

I am not a fan of his but the mockery of his physical demonstration is misplaced and unfounded.

Reminds me of Bernie Mack’s pushups in “Mr. 3000.” Even after his “conditioning”, he still wasn’t doing real pushups.

Lol. It doesn’t matter what a bunch of REMF tiktok/reddit dweebs think. None of them can do more than one or two pushups any how, between joints and masturbating. To this guy it only matter what Chechens and especially Putin thinks.

Mocking him isn’t unfounded, doing an arm pt test zero would have counted. I used to do one armed push ups . If your doing a push up do a push up.

the Chechens who aren’t in his gang hate him. The others laughed, silently, at the non piah ups he did.
