It took me years to be able to finally do pull ups. I was always so embarrassed when I was in the academy being “just one of the girls” that can’t do a pull up. Well screw that! Today I can get about 8-10 strict if I’m on fresh arms. Since it’s the challenge this week I wanted to see what I could do to challenge myself. I know 8 pull-ups isn’t as great as a lot of people but I’m sure as hell proud of it. Now I’ve decided by end of year I want to be able to get a couple full gear pull-ups. Here’s where I’m at now maybe on fresh arms next time would get a better result. Do it the HARD WAY! I started the challenge late this week so I’m going to get creative to get the 300 in but starting yesterday this is what I have T-3 days left to get them in. Strict- 20 pull-ups Weighted (gun belt)- 3 TRX finishers to failure- 35

30 TRX Face Pulls 30 Lat Pulldowns Hope to hit my last 60 tomorrow 🙌🏻. How’s everyone else doing? Keep grinding team!

So I am in the middle of my Orangetheory class tonight and the woman next to me (I don’t even know her name but recognize her from being in about a zillion classes together) says I haven’t been here in a while but since I last saw you you look amazing. Now I know my physical appearance is vastly different since the start of Project 300 and it’s by no means the first time this has happened but I’m not gonna say it isn’t nice when random other people notice the hard work enough to say something. Photos from January 2026 vs this week for reference. That’s 60lbs difference in weight. Yes….all the hard workouts and early mornings are worth it!
