@ennovy over $2 per pull up, well done mate

@ennovy That's so awesome, but I'm pretty much toast after 5 sets of 5!

Congrats man, and good on you for doing it for charity.

 

[ennovy]

@dawn16 Thank you! All it is, is practice. If you do that, and different variations 3 days a week, you will be surprised at how much they increase!

@ennovy Very well done. Glad your child is doing so well. The maximum I ever did in one session was 116 and it was hard going so kudos.

 

[ennovy]

@holyspirit2014 Thanks! I think the key is finding a rep number that you can do without feeling much fatigue or lactic acid build up. Fresh, I can do 25-30 pullups so 5 was pretty manageable.

@ennovy I can’t even do 1

@jonrpatrick Weight assisted using bands and negatives are awesome.

 

[ennovy]

@neena56 This, and alot of practice. I've been doing pullups 2 times a week for the past 6 years. You'll get there!

 

[thefoundsoul]

@jonrpatrick You can get there!

 

[richardgaia]

@jonrpatrick Get some resistance bands to help you, you can even use them to progress into a muscle up!

 

[jonrpatrick]

@richardgaia A muscle up is impossible

 

[richardgaia]

@jonrpatrick everybody who is able to do a muscle up today, at some point, couldn't do one.

i can't do one. when i started i could do 3 pullups and struggled at the third. today i do 10 perfect clean pullups and i am working towards the muscle up (with resistance bands!). nothing is impossible!

@ennovy Awesome. I have often wondered about doing it with the requisite balancing using push movements. I will check out the video.

I may do this too if someone in Toronto is raising money for a good cause. I will be tempted to do different kinds of pull ups to keep it interesting.

 

[ennovy]

@picklenickels You should! If you do, reach out and let me know. I'd love to show support.

@ennovy This is really cool! Congrats on your success and also your dedication. Super inspiring!

 

[dawn16]

@ennovy Those are chin ups- Regardless good job.

 

[ennovy]

@dawn16 There was a mix of chin-ups and pull ups. Since most people can't distinguish between the two, I thought it would be confusing calling it "1000 Pullups and Chin-ups for charity". I appreciate you keeping me honest though!

 

[dawn16]

@ennovy Anyways great job! Proud of you

@dawn16 There seems to be a mix of chin-ups and pull-ups.
