New Graduate: Mallory the Try-Hard


One ofmy favorite milestones in the gym is to watch when the Babies/Double-A kids are finally able to jump up and grab the short pull-up bar.
When the Double-A session started today we were doing kips for the warmup and I didn't let Mallory grab a box to help her get up there and she... didn't even come close. Then came some, er, encouragement and she got closer and closer. Then finally she latched on the the bar with her right hand and stuck it, bringing the left one to follow!
The whole idea of trying harder (not in a sarcastic way) has been something I've talked about before, and we practiced that today with Mallory, Josh, William, and Michael. We did 3 rounds of 2:00 max reps strict press, and 3:00 of jump and grab attempts.
