Julie2385 Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 So I just picked up the Iron Gym so I can work on my pull ups at home. I belong to a gym but their pull up bars are really high up, and I don't even think I could jump and grab them (I'm short:)) I haven't even tried doing pull ups in years, I am very good at push-ups and other body weight exercises, but was curious if I could even do a proper pull ups.And guess what . . . . I did 4, in a row !! I know that's a lot less, and maybe a lot more than other people, but I was amazed I could even do them. Hurray!! Quote Link to comment

morethanjustamom Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Yup, I am a woman Thanks!I meant that most women have trouble getting that first pullup accomplished, and for you to walk up and bang out four in a row after having not done any in a long time is amazing.
