Playing with pullups

Bonus points for anyone that looks this awesome when doing double unders

Bonus points for anyone that looks this awesome when doing double unders

Bit of a 3 part special tonight – first we’re going to be covering pullups, those still in pursuit of a decent kipping pullup we’ll be working on that.  Those a little stronger on the bar will have some fun variations to play round with… Then we’ll be building on the pistols (SLS – single leg squats) from friday night and some rope skills to finish.

    Yes, I don’t expect that record to stand for very long ;)

    Hey Ben, Kev told me after the workout that he just stopped at 120 so you didn’t look too bad. He said he has an easy 200 continuous in him. Time for a double under face off between you two i think!
