“It’s not all about power,” Page said to KSI at the start of their session. “It’s about speed.”

Page then challenged KSI’s claim that he could perform an ‘unlimited amount of chinups.’ Unfortunately, KSI was only able to pull off ten reps before tapping out: Page performed fifteen before calling it quits, with KSI laughingly telling him, “You might be showing off a bit.”
Of course, that was only a warmup; the real session began soon after.
