ZenGwen Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 HOLY CRAP.I was planning to move down to only 5 kg assist today, and then the assist machine was taken by a guy doing circuits with his trainer so boyfriend said screw it, let's just try on the normal bar...I DID THREE.HOLY CRAP.I had to stand on my tip-toes to even reach the bar, heh. But then I was popping them out LIKE A BOSS. Like a tiny boss with blue hair.I FEEL EPIC.This wipes out years of gym class trauma. I am totally doing it again and taking a video when I get home.

nickls Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Nice!If you really want to be a badass you can go to the playground and impress all the toddlers by cranking out sets of 3 pull-ups while their grandparents give you weird looks. That's what I did yesterday. Quote Link to comment
