Guess who did a pull-up this morning?!?
Me!!!!!! I've been trying to do one for about forever. Even last night when Daniel and I were walking, I made an attempt at the pull-up bars and was able to pull myself up until my chin reached the bar, but I had to give a kick to get my chin up and over it. This morning, I walked into the gym and decided to give it another go as a warm-up. That's when the magic happened. I jumped up and grabbed the bar (and then let myself back down so my arms were fully extended- we're all about good form around here) and *did a pull-up*. I was so shocked that I did another one just to be sure. I think the main difference between this morning and yesterday afternoon is that the bar at the gym is thinner than the bar outside, so it's easier for me to get a good grip. Regardless, it still counts! I actually did a few more throughout my workout just to make sure I wasn't hallucinating, and yep, I can do a pull-up.
