500 Pull Ups…

I was reading about David Goggins wanting to break the world pull up record (4,000+) and I was inspired to challenge myself. 


I decided to do 500 pull ups. 


I did them in set of five while changing my grip thought the 100 sets. 


The fist 250 went pretty fast - 35:30

Feeling great at 300 - 41:40 & 350- 49:05


At this point I switched to 100% hammer grip and the pace slowed down. 


400 - 55:20

450 - 1:04:04 

500 - 1:12:29 - SUCCESs! 


Huge mental victory. At 375 I started convincing myself - “375 is really good. Stop there”. I decided to ignore that voice.
