how do you train for that ?

like do you ever see people with a giant bar in their backyard practicing ?

how do you even decide that's what you want to do with your life ?

i have a lot of questions

Like most niche sports, isn't it just the children of rich parents who switch to sports like pole vaulting and skiing when they aren't good enough to play the regular sports? It's like that lady that made the Olympic team in some skiing event even though she really couldn't do any tricks but she showed up to get qualifying points at events that didn't have enough women to compete and then Hungary was like "Want to be an Olympian?".

so that's the common denominator - you're just rich and just trying to find some random thing you can excel at ?

Eliminate the second half of your sentence and you’re on the right track.
