    Guys just be careful that your muscles don鈥檛 outrun your tendons. I used to do a ton of chin-ups and progressed from under 10 to about 35 in like 6 months. My tendons around my elbow hurt so much that I had to quit for over a year. When you feel that pain you need to back off until it鈥檚 gone or you鈥檙e going to make it worse. Don鈥檛 fight through it. It鈥檚 not a muscle that will adapt quickly, it鈥檚 a tendon that takes a long time to strengthen.

    Such a wonderful video! I've loved following workout process for over a year. At 59 I have never hurt myself and I'm enjoying the consistent strength improvement from week to week!

    Man, I always avoid doing one-arm chin-ups. I guess that's a sign I need to give them a try at the gym today.

    I like your different take on fitness jack. Why spend hours in the gym doing things inefficiently. Thanks for sharing your wisdom.

    Just start surfing! &nbsp;In my HS during the presidential fitness test, the surfers ROCKED the pull-ups and bench press. Made the average jocks look ridiculous. Football coach was having a field day yelling at his heavier linemen! &nbsp;<br><br>All those hours of paddling out and trying to catch waves turned the surfers into upper body beast.
