I did it! I finally did it!

UNASSISTED pull ups!! Close grip, 3 of 'em! Goddamn that only took me a year!

I was so surprised I almost let go of the chin up bar! Then I wanted to a little hoochie coochie dance around the gym in triumph!

Just slap my rear and call me Arnold! LOL!

Nice work!!

tnheygirl · 03-12-2001, 11:30 AM

Good for YOU girl!!! Every time I try I get so tickled at myself because I'm pulling and grunting and not getting anywhere I just laugh myself to the floor!lol

Good work. After failure, try jumping up to get some more negatives. That's how I was able to work up to 10+ wide grip pullups and now am working with a 25lb. plate hanging from my waist.

Negatives make you stronger.
CONGRATS!

skydancer · 03-12-2001, 12:49 PM

Thanks everyone! I have to laugh at myself but this was a really big accomplishment for me so I'm a little exuberent.

LOL Juicy Girl...negatives already for me eh? I was pleased I did them all smooth and controlled. You are right though!
