I'm leaning towards not including it more for the complexity of logging than anything. Deadlifts. I went back and forth on including this and left it off to keep the challenge more about 'typical' pull up exercises. But I'm happy for a group decision on this. No worries then-I don't want to complicate things with this. I'll just stick with pull-ups Wolf Quote Wild Wolf Class: Peerless Scarred/ Height: 6'2 / Weight: 188# Instagram: @ryanwolfbell / Facebook: Ryan Wolf Bell / Bible App (YouVersion) Ryan Wolf Bell Current Challenge: Intro to Wolflean Spoiler Last Challenge(s): 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9/10/11/12/13/14/15/16 Epic Challenges: Welcome to the Fireteam & Wolfpool Gotham Project: 1 " Know, O prince, that once the sun burns out and the earth's core becomes solid and cold, there will come a man to provide the endless energy needed to sustain life and for the planets to keep moving.

Do any of these count as pull ups or assited. Ring exercises Inverted hang Skin the Cat From the videos you posted, I'd class these more as hanging exercises than assistance? They seem to be predominantly grip and core based. There are a million and one different variations of pulling and hanging exercises out there so we could spend the entire four weeks debating what's "allowed" and what's not! This PvP is to help people increase their pull ups or do their first pull up. If there is an exercise that you do as part of your routine that is helping you reach that goal, then I'd say count it as 2 points per rep (1 point per 20 sec for timed hangs). How's everyone's week been? I'm happy to report that all the pull up work is paying off and I'm back to doing 2 pull ups in as row. They're not the prettiest of pull ups and the ROM needs a little work, but it's still an improvement so I'll take it! 4 Quote Current: Assassins / Instagram Previous: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44 2020 Races: CANCELLED!
