    Thanks for the pull-up link. I’ll be trying those tips tonight, I definitely don’t think I”ve been using my lats properly.

  • Aaron Segal

    A. 8:52 rx’d strict hspu’s
    B. Tabata cash out

  • reisbaron

    The pull-up article is great, and I’ll be more conscious of my lats as I continue my infinite struggle. Interesting picture though, showing the man looking up, with legs bent back at 90 degrees. It seems their evaluation of good pull-ups deals strictly with lats and shoulder blades.

    Sara mentioned this morning that pre-registration for classes is started. how do we go about doing that?

  • Jeff K
