    Wonderful! Great for you!

    Three months ago I could do 3, maybe 4. This morning I did 5 sets of 6 chin ups and 5 sets of 6 pull ups - among other exercises.

    I am impressed. No sarcasm, promise. I want to do chin ups, whenever I get around to getting a chin up bar. even back in school, I remember that chin ups were the one thing that were always hard for me. Leg things, easy. Chin ups - argh! I need to get a chin up bar.

    I got the chin-up bar about 8 months ago. I tried and tried and couldn't even get my feet off the ground, gave up and tried a couple of months ago and I did it I think it was 2 chin-ups, I was so excited!!

    women have more lower body strength! And yea back in high school I could not do one lol.
    The most I've ever done is like 15 wide grip pull ups.
