OT: Pull-ups

[steinek11]

Generally, the longer the arms, the fewer the pullups. Short arm dudes can get going like a beagle on a *****.

Ha, correct here, and you also Jedi posted to the one-liner thread. Well done!

I love to rock climb so working on pull up/chin ups is a must. I'm 190lbs so it's been a slow and painful process to get up to 25 straight without stopping.

push ups though.. can run through those all day.... got a bunch of bad tips in college while at the weight room on campus. I do miss those roid heads.

I can’t now but give me 3 months

3 months to do 8 pull-ups? Yeah. I can do it in 2. I mean that is like 1 a week

That was always one of my strong suits, and I ruled the peg board as a result. But yes, even at 52, I can rip off 8 pullups.

We’re about the same age and I can get 8 and 10 on a good day, but I’m 6’1” and 175 lbs with long a$$ arms, so I feel good about anything over a 5 count.

Yes, but do you like beagles?

Are you in a room with Fisher Price Little People?
