Finally installed a pull-up bar and I'm feeling myself
Got one of those doorway pull-up bars from Amazon ($35, 10/10 would recommend) and managed to do 8 actual pull-ups today. Haven't been able to do that since college. My 9yo daughter was like "Dad you're getting ripped" and honestly? That might've been the best compliment I've received all year. Small wins, right?
8 pull-ups is legit! That doorway bar is undefeated for the price. What kind are you doing - strict or kipping? Trying to get back to my college numbers too and it's humbling.
Replying to the shoulder concern - this. Did exactly this. Started doing 8-10 reps daily and my rotator cuff was NOT happy. Rest days are your friend.
