Well it turned out that he gave me a pull up bar for my home and just in front of me he did 30 reps without even sweating! he stopped for less than a minute to teach me the right way to do them and resume for another 25 reps!. I can assure you that he did the negative part very slowly in each rep, and he fully extended his arms at the bottom of the exercise, needless to say that at the top of the movement, he reached the bar with his chest and stopped for 1 second before the negative part. Wow, and he is 40!. N.B. Of course I barely could a couple of reps. Ruben Hi Scott,
