In October, I made a goal to do 100 unassisted pull ups before New Years.
Where are my friends? Seriously, how come no one smacked me? Haha
So, I've been a bit obsessed with the whole pull up business for the last month. I got the dead hang. I've got the assisted. I have even gotten the kipping part down. Now...I've gotta put it all together and make some magic happen.
Does anyone else get on these little tangents too? I mean, I am up in the middle of the night googling tips. Crazy right? I'm not sure that its making the situation any better but I think my obsession has worn off on Becca. Every day, you can catch us trying until our hands are shredded. Last night, I hit my rock bottom. Well, rock top to be completely honest. At 2 a.m., I rigged up my assistance band on the rock climbing tactical board in my bedroom. (Yes, I've got a tactical board in my bedroom. Haha). Who does that crap in the middle of the night?
All of these tips and tries are paying off. Today, I put it all together. It was the same determination that got me up the wall bouldering. I took a deep breath and told myself I was not excepting anything but 150%. I have all the tools to make this happen. Courage, strength and determination. I gave it my all and I pulled off what could be considered the best effort of an unassisted kipping wide grip pull up ever. My chin was honestly about 4 inches away from th bar. Only 4 inches separate me from another goal. I've got all the hard parts down. I've got 28 more days to smash this goal. If I can do 1. I can do 100. If crossfit has taught be anything, its that 100 is only made up of a lot of 1's added together.
