Workout:

This is a partner based workout.  2 people are to complete a total of 200 (100 each) dead-hang pull-ups.  Reps must be completed alternatively one rep at a time. 

Person 1 jumps to bar, completes 1 rep, drops off bar then person 2 jumps to bar, completes 1 rep, drops off bar - repeat this cycle until 100 reps have been completed per person.

Pull-Up - must start as dead-hang to chin over bar for rep to count.  Any grip allowed (I would advise changing grip throughout).

Aim to complete total reps in less than 15 minutes.  If you are working out alone then drop off the bar after each rep, pause for a few seconds and repeat.

Note:

Please scale all Fitness Explorer workouts and playouts to your current ability.  This may mean increasing or decreasing the weights prescribed, modifying distances and times, or changing number of sets and reps to complete.  Get adequate rest and sufficient nutrition to fuel the activity and to aid in recovery.  Work hard and play hard but never sacrifice correct form.

Please visit the exercise FAQ for details on individual exercises or consult the advice of a registered exercise professional to ensure safe execution of the above movements.

If you are new to this mode of exercise, try one of the beginner's circuits
