Below is a video that was recently posted to my forum. Within the video, you will see a 44 year old woman (Crystal West) work through a freestyle pull-up session.

Perhaps even more impressive than the video above is her 39 consecutive pull-up demonstration.

If you still need pull-up inspiration, Crystal once performed 1,210 reps in 80 minutes. That’s at least a thousand more pull-ups than many will perform in an entire life.

Crystal’s pull-up strength is obviously impressive. It is much more impressive however when you consider that she is a 40+ year old woman. Most women are unable to perform a single rep on the bar. Here is a 44 year old who is just shy of 40 consecutive reps.

In the past week, we’ve seen a heavyweight on the bar and now a woman. Both are often assumed to be unable to perform reps on the pull-up bar. Clearly, these assumptions are false. There is no excuse to let the pull-up bar collect dust. Get your hands on the bar and get busy.
