Can you do a pull up or chin up?

[Wendy Reed]

PULL UP BABY!

:toot: As of this week I can do a full 1 & 7/8 pull ups from a full arm extension down all the way up!!! With a little more than a shoulder wide grip. It's very odd according to my trainer. He says... you are so strong with everything else, what the heck is up with the pull ups? LOL

I can do 4 supinated (that means palms facing me or GI Jane style).

I can squat 205 pounds now! Whoot whoot!

[Wendy Reed]

Oh and I'd show you my pics from the other night but me no likey them! LOL

[april]

I was never able to do those.. but I want to make it a goal for me!

[Wendy Reed]

It's hard man... HARD!

[april]

I know!!!!!!

I opted for the hang there for how ever many seconds during BMT.

[Wendy Reed]

That's all we did (the girls) in Elementary school. The boys did the pull ups.

[Tracy]

Oh and I'd show you my pics from the other night but me no likey them! LOL

You can't come here and tease us and then NOT show us. Just a quick peek??

[april]

:giggle: Oh and I just remembered to pass that portion of the fit test.. the girls had to do JUST ONE. I only remember one girl doing a pull up.

[april]

Do you think it would be tacky to put one up in one of the door frames?

[Wendy Reed]

[MKpinklady]

Maybe I could just put up a pic of Wendy as motivation! Dang girl!

Actually, I dunno that I could ever get a bod like that...even working out twice a day! I think my BONES are bigger than Wendy!!

I *am* trying though...I may never look as good as you, but I can be healthy and get to a better me. I'm really OK with that...we can't ALL look as good as you! lol

[Wendy Reed]

THANKS Kim! You are right... being a healthier you is a fantastic thing and everyone can do that. BUT, I think you could rock your bod too. :giggle:

[MKpinklady]

Oh honey...this is one stubborn bod, it would take this bod a lot of convincing to get rocked! :giggle:

[Wendy Reed]

:eek:

:giggle:

[Cricket]

[Cricket]

:laugh2: Cricket! Oh he won't. But be prepared for some sweat and soreness. :yes:


I can handle sore and sweat, but just not sore that makes me cripple for a week...sheesh! it better be worth it, that's all I gotta say!

speaking of, gotta get ready, meeting him soon!!

smiles,

[Wendy Reed]

:giggle:

Ummmmmmmm.... is this your first day? Cause you actually might feel a bit crippled for the first week or two.

[Cricket]

:giggle:

first day of lower body. I know I'm gonna be sore but I swear Wendy, last week when I couldn't even move my arms or sleep etc, that was not normal!!

I have been skating (I'm a figure skater) and using my eliptical so I'm hoping that my legs can stand a bit more, my arms were soooo flippin' weak! LOL

I did have a talk with him and he thinks maybe he was a bit too aggressive starting out with me...I was doing 40 reps in sets of 5 on the very first try! I actually felt myself develop a migraine, it was just toooo much..

so, we'll see how today goes, slowing it down a bit....wish me luck!

Woman are naturally stronger in their lower half than their upper half so you're probably right.

Ummmmmmmmm.... 40 reps PER set? WHAT the heck? That is way out of control. I do 10-20 reps per set and 4-5 sets depending on what we are working. No wonder you were so bad off. EAK!

how bout it!!! My sister has been weight training for over a year now and when I told her that she was like WHAT THE **CK!!!!! she does the same as you, and told me that when she started out it was like 10-12 reps, 3 sets! That is what we did today and I feel really good...

Yup, when I started out that's what I was doing too. 40 is just unrealistic! No wonder you felt that way. I am glad today was better. You'll likely still be sore, but NOT like you were.

Oh and your legs.... probably won't be very sore the next day it's the day after that when they get really sore if they will.

[april]

I used to LOVE that sore after workout feeling. lol

[Wendy Reed]

Oh awesome! That will surely help ya too.
