Screw the rack pull, one handed chinup baby

So, the plan today was to leave work at noon, rest some before the gym, then hit it hard.  Plans changed, got off at 2.  So no time to rest before the gym, however, pretty sure those rolled chicken tacos from Taco Bell fueled a day I won't forget.  I'll post numbers below, but for the goodness.  So, our accessory work was just chinups, and my partner decided on set 3 to do a set of close grip pullups instead of chins.  So naturally I called him a motherfucker.  On my 4th rep I asked how many he got, he said 4, I thought he had done 3 and thought I beat him on that 4th one.  So I did a 5th.  Then I made the joke we're not done.  Then acted like I was going to do a one handed chinup and actually came off the ground.  So I was like "Fuck dude, gotta record this incase I manage to do it."  So, tossed him my phone, got some chalk, and I'm gonna call it 1.5 instead of 2, but I managed to do a one handed chinup.  My 315 pound fat ass, did a one handed chinup.  It's funny, I remember benching 135, and 500, everything in between and over... don't really register quickly.  This though... damn... I'm elated.  So okay, numbers...


Rack pulls, 2nd pin.  135x6, 225x5, 315x1, 405x1, 495x1, 585x1
