You guys, I don’t brag about myself much at all, but I just have to let you know about this one. Tonight, to begin my workout with my trainer, I did 5 pull ups. I repeat – 5 pull ups!! I haven’t done pull ups since before I was pregnant, let alone 5 in a row. And these were full on, from a dead hang, no leg swinging to cheat pull ups. Yes, I did do them underhand grip instead of overhand, which is harder, but still. I was aiming for 3 (but I really was only expecting 2) and my trainer was aiming for 2, so we were both pretty stoked.
The last time I did 5 pull ups was on my 30th birthday, a little over 2 years ago. So there’s my personal pat on the back for tonight. I’d better get it in now, because I have a feeling I won’t be able to reach around and touch my back through the pain I’ll most likely be feeling in a matter of hours.
