      HACKS FOR HACKS

      I HATE DOING THE DISHES, and I hate doing pull ups.  Taken individually, they go straight to the back of the procrastination line.

      So, how did I do 50 pull ups today?

      Before I get there, let me share a few of the countless benefits to doing pull ups.

      Posture.
      Yep, you my deskboundstaringatglass friend will experience better posture doing pull ups.  I'm not sure if it's the actual pull ups or just the confidence one gets by being a badass pullupper.

      Another...

      Climbing powerfully on the bike. 
      No more sitting back down in defeat after 2 pedal strokes - especially effective when combined with push ups.

      More...

      Sprinting speedily. 
      Grab those bars and feel a bigbrawnyconnection as you unleash your mighty fury.

      Back to my hack...

      1.  Have a pull up at home, mine is upstairs jammed between a bathroom door.

      2.  Do as many as you can.

      3.  Unload some dishes.

      Repeat until dishes are done and body is smoked.

      Here's my breakdown - switching between palms out and palms in.

      9-7-5-5-4-4-3-4-2-3-2-2-1 50

      All that may sound silly,
      or maybe you're just so dedicated already,
      possibly you're in love with the T-rex look of many cyclists...

      ... but if any of that resonates, you really ought to check out the PEDALposse.

      https://pedalindustries.com/products/pedalposse

      But, before you click over there...

      My friend BC shot me a text: What's the posse all about?

      Honestly, I'm not sure.

      Should I join?

      No.

      Now why wouldn't a want a longtime, raploving pal like BC to join?  For the simple reason he's not sure.  If you're not sure, don't even hover over the link...

      https://pedalindustries.com/products/pedalposse

      ... might accidentally click it, but if you're sure you're down for something different then join us.
