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!
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 must be an amazing feeling.
It is, thank you!
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
Ah man that sucks! 15 is super impressive, you must’ve been a beast!
Not really, I was just super lean ran a lot and went to the gym every day.
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!
