ready to get ripped
The Mr. gave me the go ahead to day to purchase a pull-up bar for our home! I always feel funny buying things that carry the “as seen on tv” stamp. Don’t get me wrong, some of the best inventions find their start in infomercials (hello snuggie!). Here’s the one I ended up finding. On sale of course…

Not any more…this will engage a whole new set of muscles. And by muscles, I mean pain. I did two “negative” chin-ups (that’s when you jump up and then slowly lower yourself down). I felt every muscle in my arms, back and abs engaged. I am excited to explore and try different exercises. My home gym is slowly taking shape.
I expect to be ripped like this shortly:
