I am so, so bad at pull ups. It’s not like they’re a mystery to me or anything, I’m just not that strong. Never really have been strong enough to do many of them. Three months ago I could do exactly one. Now, I’m up to about 7, even if they aren’t quite full-extension reps. But I’m getting better. I don’t have a firm goal just yet, but I’d love to be able to bang out sets of 10. There’s just not many things quite as manly as jumping up to a high bar and cranking out pull ups like it’s no big deal.
And no kipping, either. I have no desire to look like a dying fish.
