Re: Introduction- Nic
6 pullups is better than none, and not the sign of a week upper body. Maybe just one that needs to be trained. I would suggest that the next thing you do is follow Jim's advice, self administer a PT test, and once we see the results, we can take it from there. Never, ever quit.
