    Very good, do you do any weighted pullups/chinups, if so what sort of weight & reps?

    Thanks man. My heaviest one rep max iv done is 62.5kg with a narrow grip and about 55kg or so with wide grip, chin ups was about 55kg for one. I done them about a little over a year ago though (and at a higher bodyweight, around 107-110kg). I purposefully dropped weight since then but havent been able to get those numbers again with good form, somthing im working up to at the moment. Id probably be able to normally get +40kg for about 4 good reps at the moment (with any width of grip)

    Thats some weight! interesting how your pullups seem better than chins, I would be the opposite (and thought most would be), I don't really do much weighted pullups as I am far better at weighted chins. My 1RM best was 40kg chin in the past when I was a bit lighter, but I tried to repeat it recently and failed.

    Tried the Turkish getup thing. Got 24 reps in 2mins see hither. ~10kg bell (2x5+bar). Did 25 in the vid but only 24 within the allowed time. Not sure if they all count though as I don't think I open up properly. This seems limited by the cycle time. Could be interesting with more weight!

    I think it'd be difficult to do this without looking like you're having some sort of advanced convulsion...

    Sorry about the sideways-ness, if anyone can tell me how to easily rotate a .3pg/ .mp4 video I'd be mucho obligado.
