Week 1

I restarted the challenge with column 1. The 3rd day, I finally received the pullup bar I ordered (did the pullups on the stairs first).

D1: 6-6-4-7-9=32
D2: 7-6-6-8-9=36
D3: 8-8-8-6-max(9)=39 (on the pullup bar)

The last pullup of D3 was really hard, but that's the point of "max".

On the pullup bar, I can now do them with a wider grip, which is kind of different from the closer grip.. but better I think :)

A few days rest and onto Week 2!

Restart challenge

I'm redoing the challenge starting from initial test.

I did 16 pullups, of which the last 2 weren't as high as the others.. so maybe I should count it as 14?
Afterwards I did 2 more sets with 3 minutes pauze, resulting in:

16(14) - 9(8) - 7(6)

I'll start with week 1, column 3 now (previously started with column 2). I think this will help me get there more smoothly than redoing week 5 and 6 of column 2 multiple times because of failures.

Started the challenge

Could do 8 pullups in a row, I so started in the second column. 4-3-2-4-5 worked fine.

I actually thought I could do a 6th in the last set, but I could only do it half ..
