personally don't think pull up should be part of the military standard given how it favors smaller people

2019-11-18 03:34:21 UTC  

rather do shoulder presses

2019-11-18 03:34:29 UTC  

and military presses

2019-11-18 03:34:37 UTC  

Well yea it does, but long legs favour tall people at running

2019-11-18 03:34:42 UTC  

Play to your strengths

2019-11-18 03:34:50 UTC  

fuck the pullup; i am 6'5 and the bar is never high enough

2019-11-18 03:34:57 UTC  

And it means little when you have to throw some fat ass over your back and carry them 50-100 meters tbh

2019-11-18 03:35:09 UTC  

unless they a real fat ass- in which case leave them

2019-11-18 03:35:10 UTC  

ye but I think running gives ya a bigger advantage then a pull up would

2019-11-18 03:35:29 UTC  

given its also an endurance thing

2019-11-18 03:35:44 UTC  

Nah it doesn't tbh, running is great for shuttles in kit, but in truth the days of light role running everywhere are done, got vehicles and shit now <:PepeLaugh:565528391336329216>

2019-11-18 03:35:47 UTC  

i'd rather do strong man competions

2019-11-18 03:35:55 UTC  

Also I was light role, and there was sweet fuck all that was light about it

2019-11-18 03:35:58 UTC  

lug massive tires or some shit

2019-11-18 03:36:02 UTC  

running? No. i make THEM run

2019-11-18 03:36:18 UTC  

My back and knees will hate me when i'm 50 tbh

2019-11-18 03:36:29 UTC  
2019-11-18 03:36:49 UTC  

i went back to the gym a few years ago, haha pullups, then i couldnt lift myself lol, sober moment

2019-11-18 03:37:05 UTC  

Dude if someone can do half a pull up thats something tbh

2019-11-18 03:37:18 UTC  

well, you have to be able to do at least one

2019-11-18 03:37:20 UTC  

Think about how much you weigh and then divide it into 2 for each of your piddly arms

2019-11-18 03:37:33 UTC  

im 105kg

2019-11-18 03:37:44 UTC  

i'd' rather lift my car and slide it accross the lot

2019-11-18 03:37:49 UTC  

than fuckin run\

2019-11-18 03:37:49 UTC  

so each arm effectively has to pull 50KG

2019-11-18 03:37:53 UTC  

all muscle I presume cadbal?

2019-11-18 03:37:54 UTC  

Each time you do a pull up

2019-11-18 03:38:07 UTC

2019-11-18 03:38:11 UTC

2019-11-18 03:38:14 UTC

2019-11-18 03:38:26 UTC

2019-11-18 03:38:38 UTC  

not to mention they have the elastic band shit in gyms to help with pull ups you know

2019-11-18 03:38:40 UTC  

fucking bend steel and shit

2019-11-18 03:38:44 UTC  

Start with the orange one and go down from there

2019-11-18 03:38:52 UTC  

tbh i've always carried a fair bit, physical jobs and such, tho now im trimming back down and running while lifting

2019-11-18 03:39:11 UTC  

I stopped distance running now i'm out tbh, I only do 2-5 miles daily

2019-11-18 03:39:12 UTC  

just got to get back into a routine

2019-11-18 03:39:21 UTC  

i always have to make sure i have a decent back work out

2019-11-18 03:39:29 UTC  

weights/BW 3x a week and running 5x a week

2019-11-18 03:39:38 UTC
