I don’t know where else to share this, but I’m so proud of myself so I’ve gotta post it somewhere. I’ve finally got my first unassisted pull-up! It wasn’t a goal I was working super hard toward, but I’ve noticed a lot of new muscle definition in my back, probably because I do a lot of rows, especially bird-dog rows and renegade rows. So I tried a pull-up and I was able to do one pretty easily! Not bad for a middle-aged lady! Now I’ve got a goal to do three. :)
Took me a while to understand what you mean with “got” it, was odd as if someone gave you a pull up :D
Fucking right. Crushing fitness goals is amazing!
It’s my favorite thing!
Awesome, Was it over hand or underhand on the bar?
The overhand is known as a heave and they’re harder but much better overall for back development.
I’m not trying to take away your achievement just curious is all
Overhand! :)
Fuck yeah!
I used to do 15 a day minimum but then messed up my elbow and shoulder in an accident so I can hardly do one without extreme pain.
Keep it up
Congratulations! The pullup bar is a pretty exclusive club, to be honest.
Thx! Yeah especially for women (or so I hear anyway), which is why I’m so stoked!
Congratulations! It’s a really great feeling, felt like I was flying when I got my first one. You’ll definitely smash 3 before you know it!
Whoa!! Cingrats! I’m gonna work on mine now!
Thanks! You got this!
