Often we move, eat, train, live, work… according to a method The methods are handed down to us, from our peers, from social media, from the books, from the course lecturer Of course, we get to take advantage of this previous work.

The one arm chin-up is almost a little bit over the top.  It’s a movement that, if you choose to pursue, and take the time, will give you ample pulling strength for pretty much any other movement.
