Jealous. Dan's playlist would hit the spot. Listened to BoL's album three weeks ago. My GF was trying to remember the name of one of their songs and I had it out before she was finished. Practically no one knows Book of Love these days. We're perfect for each other...

Memories. I saw Book of Love at the 9:30 Club in DC in 1989. Wow, thirty years ago.

Holy Fuck. Both you guys listen to Book of Love. Right on!

Tonight was a hell of a reminder that a month(ish) off from basically any cardio activity combined with eating like shit and too much booze makes sports performance ability PLUMMET.

Time to get back to it.
 
I swam tonight. Didn’t count laps. Didn’t time anything. Just swam until I got my heart rate up for a while and worked on having a good stroke. It felt so good to be in the pool. It was actually fun with only feeling about 85% normal. I’m pretty stoked for an easy day. I was afraid it would be worse.

Man i find swimming for any real length of time quite taxing. Full body cardio hell. Lol

More like i have good endurance in that exercise. When i can deadlift 400+, them i will consider myself strong.
:laughing

Some Czech guy did 232 pullups.....
 
Double leg amputee?

With a count of 232, he could be a full body amputee.
:laughing

Sorry 238
WORLD RECORDS: MOST CONSECUTIVE PULL-UPS
The record is for the most pull-ups without dismounting. However, during the attempt it was permitted to hang on the bar with one hand only (allowing the other arm a little "rest").
The record holder is Jan Kareš (Czech Republic) who did 238 pull-ups in 34 minutes on 18 November 2017 in Hergetova Cihelna, Czech Republic. VIDEO
The female record are 48 pull-ups by Irina Rudometkina (Russia/USA) on 18 December 2014 at River City High School in West Sacramento, California, USA.

For the record, my lats are sore (within 12 hours), so I think I will continue doing that exercise with a wide grip and similar intensity/volume.

I wonder if they allowed straps, which would have allowed him to rest even further.

I doubt it, but does it really matter to normal people?

There are records of total reps in given time periods (total in 30 min; 60 min; 6 hours etc.) that were simply outrageous.

600+ for 30 minutes etc.

With a strap on one of the hands, the effort to hang in between sets with that hand would be reduced by at least 75%, allowing it to recover faster.

It's a big deal, in competitive rock climbing or even just rock climbing, forearm pump is the biggest limiting factor, so everything you did took that into consideration.

Granted, if one are was always strapped you couldn't shake it out but most people have a dominant arm that is stronger than the other.

I would encourage everyone in this thread to try and do a dead hang for 60 seconds.

I like to hang after upper-body workouts, I’m around 90 seconds right now. I wonder what a good time is for a guy my size (200).
