    She's right...because I'm pretty sure I can't even do 1! lol. I haven't tried in a while though. And now I'm pregnant, so I won't even be trying again any time soon! ;)

    0. But I can tie a cherry stem in a knot with my tongue.

    Damn! :smokin:

    when i first got a pull up bar I could barely do one pull up and like three chins...

    now I can do about 8 pull ups with 25# plate hanging from my waist and about ten chins with 25# plate....

    It just takes practice and dedication..a lot of dedication because pulls and chins are painful!

    Chin ups, probably 3x8
    Wide grip pull ups, 3x6

    Lots of variables affect these #s. But I train for aesthetics and not strength so it doesn't really matter.

    Last week I did 10 in a row! I don't own a pull up bar, so I honestly had no idea if I could even do one.

    I went to the gym on vacation with my aunt.

    I was so super excited I could spit. When I was at my heaviest, if I was hanging from a bar, I couldn't even pull myself up an inch and it would hurt my arms horribly.

    Zero!

    But my goal is to be able to do one some day. Hopefully soon after I reach my goal weight.

    My parents have a pull up bar in their house (my brother's) so I try to do them whenever I'm there. Two weeks ago when I was there I did 2 (starting hanging with my knees bent) with palms facing me. I have never tried them with palms facing away.

    Edited to add that I was so shocked that I announced it throughout the house to my entire family, so of course they wanted to see it to believe it and I couldn't do anymore! haha

    lost practice ha..
