THE PULLUP
How significant is the pull-up?
• At least as important as any other upper body exercise
• An essential part of athletic training
• Perfectly functional
• A gateway exercise to highly developmental gymnastics movements
• Singularly unique and valuable, and so has no replacement ("lat pull-down" is a weak substitute)

Every personal best pull-up is an event worthy of celebration. You’re going to live to be 100 but you’ll not get that many pull-ups, so treat the new ones like birthdays.
