Pullup Happy Dance!
To disable ads, please log-in.
I
did
6
dead-hang
pullups
in
a
row
TODAY!
(sorry...just have to get it out...)
Hubby just kind of went "Hmph. Good job." My reply was something like, "What? That's all I get? I've been shooting for 5 in a row for a while now and I bang out 6 whilst battling a nasty recurring case of tennis elbow and all I get is that? You should say something like 'way to go! great job honey!'."
He changed his response. Good choice.
OK, next goal is 10 in a row by the end of summer. Dead-hangers, not kipping pullups and not chin ups.

Impressive! I'm just a tad bit jealous! Do you do crossfit?

if you're not a rock climber, you should be!

Just thinking about pull ups reminds me of the Presidential Physical fitness test we used to have to do in elementary school. I dreaded that.
I was lucky if I could just hang there.

I hurt my shoulder by neglecting my pull-ups while I was trying to do too many push-ups. Originally Posted by Zen

I need to get back to doing BOTH. I've lost so much upper body strength.

Push ups, hand stands, pull ups. There's nothing you can't do!
