In an extraordinary display of endurance and dedication, Idai Makaya, former world record pull-up holder, is gearing up to challenge the current world record for the most squats completed in a 24-hour period, which stands at an impressive 25,000.
Idai plans to surpass this milestone while employing innovative CoreTx GO palm cooling technology throughout his attempt to delay fatigue, moderate core temperature and enhance performance.
Makaya's quest is deeply personal, driven by a commitment to continue the philanthropic legacy of his brother, Garai, who tragically lost his life in a skydiving accident. Since 2018, following Garai's passing, Idai has embarked on a series of extreme ultra-endurance events to raise funds for causes in Southern Africa. This upcoming Guinness World Record attempt aims to raise £4,000 to install a borehole for the Hupenyu Hutsva orphanage in Harare, Zimbabwe. The provision of a clean, unlimited water supply will significantly impact the lives of the 65 children residing at the orphanage, drastically improving sanitation and reducing the risk of waterborne diseases which have plagued the area.
Idai's training regimen for this gruelling challenge is as innovative as his fundraising approach. Utilising the CoreTx Go Palm Cooling device, he has tailored his workouts to optimise endurance and recovery. Training three times a week, his sessions range from high-intensity squats in an EMS studio to longer, more sustained squatting sessions over the weekends. The use of palm cooling has been pivotal in allowing Idai to extend the duration and intensity of his workouts without succumbing to muscle fatigue or overheating, demonstrating a unique approach to physical conditioning.
Commenting on the use of Palm Cooling throughout his training sessions Idai has stated that, “The secret to this type of training is to never sweat… If my muscles start to burn or fail, I just hold the palm cooler and keep squatting until I start to feel more normal again. It is very noticeable how the muscle pain ramps up if I don't constantly hold the palm cooler in my hands… If my hands feel like they are freezing I'll stop the palm cooling for a few minutes until they warm up, then I hold it again.”
As Makaya approaches this monumental task, he not only prepares to set a new world record but also to make a significant difference in the lives of children in need. The event promises to be a testament to human resilience, the spirit of giving, and the power of community support in achieving extraordinary feats.
