Hey there sport-loving steemians!

This was initially meant to be a challenge for just a guys I'm connected here with a follow relationship but during writing this I realised it doesn't have to be that closed. Soo I've wanted to challenge fellow jiu jitsu guys Hive account@jiujitsu, Hive account@embomb701, Hive account@bradlovesbeer, Hive account@shinedojo, Hive account@ramareddy, Hive account@bjjlifestyle and a gymnast Hive account@booster916 for a pullup contest. Booster gonna probably whoop our asses but whatever, let's make Helio proud at least :D

But as already said above, anyone reading this can take part, you don't have to be my follower or anything! Just submit the video either in the comment or make the post out of it with a tag "pullupchallenge" so all the videos are grouped at one place and you're in. MOST PULLUPS UNDER 380 SECONDS! You can combine various grips as I've done.

Women's count is multiplied by 2!

Edit: We got a sponsor :D (Hive account@flipstar)..So here new rewards distribution:

1. 1st place - 3.5 SBD
2. 2nd place - 2 SBD
3. 3rd place - 1 SBD
4. 1 SBD is distributed among all the rest of participants

Also I'm not taking part in the competition itself. Prizes are just symbolical, cuz I'm no Vitalik, donating cryptos left and right :D I'll send those SBD pennies on Sunday 8pm CET. It's really meant to be just fun and to make Steemit once again a biiit better place, step by step.

I just thought this might be an interesting challenge for all of us to push each other. Especially for me these days, being injured, I'm struggling to have as intense workouts as the ones which happen on the mats during jiu jitsu class.

I was lazy to do a counter by rep so it's done by set. Also video is in 2x speed

So for today, I've done 49 (it was supposed to be 50, but I counted bad :D) pullups as fast as possible and it took me 6:18 minutes - therefore 380 seconds. Form is not perfect ( I'm not going to fully extended locked elbows) but when I'm doing kind of "speed pullup workout", I actually don't do that. But yeah, I guess it's not that bad. What do you think?

Can't wait for your responses and also hope to get some challenges back (doesn't matter if in form of competition or justa video challenge).

Thanks for reading!Martin
