Principle still applies, like in the summer, if your building up again or like me out from injury or like when I broke my leg - 10 or 15 is not over doing it but if you do it often like your door bar, get up do 10, shower, go work come home do 10 take a shower and then again before you go bed. Each time nothing of nothing but in the morning the ache is there knowing you did it and repeat.

Ended up getting a bar the other week. Didnt realise just how different/more difficult a chin up is to a pull-up!

Started off only managing 3-4 pull-ups, now seem to be up to about 7-8. Hopefully next week will hit the 10 mark heh.

I think it might be a little easier for me considering I weigh just under 10st!

The bars pretty awesome, didnt think itd be so sturdy. Just needed to grab a towel or something to stop the blisters on my fingers!

I am officially back to 32 inch waist from 34 at xmas and needing belts for the gear I got at xmas and bought before moving to nz.
Found a place selling straps, just need to get some cash and go pick them up

Ok, doing stuff Since Xmas Fairly hard at it and now officially 2 inches off the waist from 34 inches to 32, jeans bought before xmas and shorts 1st week here not very loose and signs of tone as well so going well lower.
Upper as mentioned is a bit slower until I get some bits to support my hand and now job secure even with my money stuck in the UK I will soon have the money to get some more bits and work more on this front also.
Quite please though how things are going, my intention is to look very different, happy and well when I come back to the UK in December for a big family bash and surprise people and plan to up it all soon.
Hopefully may have someone under my arm as well (another story but also going well)
Some tough things and issues but basically so far things are looking up for me here and I am glad I moved here overall It has made me feel a lot better in myself after a shocking sh*te 3/4 years.
