[...] Steph Davis to thank for this online movement. In the doldrums of last winter, an impromptu discussion about pullup training spurned this growing community of Twitter climbers. Having a central place to share our progress [...]

[...] The recovery months flew by, and the time I spent in the gym rehabbing my leg also allowed me to do lots of pullups and upper body training. I started climbing on my wall about 2 months ago and then at the crags in [...]

I’ve been loving the #tpup athon since Jan 4….. it has been a really cool experience all around and the caliber of the #pups involved has been eye opening for me….seriously, these are some extremely neat people that comprise our little #tpup group. Occupations alone run the gamut: Scientists, Writers, Artists, Teachers, Lawyers, Students, Software Engineers, Sponsored Base Jumpers (ahem), Independent Business owners, Marketing Gurus, CFO Consultants, Firemen/Optical Engineers, Entrepreneurs, Professional Guides….and more, across 7 countries and 60 cities. I’m looking forward to the 100,000 mark. By that time, we could have a simultaneous virtual tweetup, with webcams, and we could do a “for real” #tpup workout, worldwide, together.
Some notes:
1. We’ve had one pup who hadn’t done a pullup in 2 years decide to try again, because of #tpup
2. We’ve had at least one photo sent of a #tpup er doing a shot of tequila while doing a one-armed-lockoff.
3. We’ve had several #tpup ers get stronger over the course of @Teampup, and increase their pyramid levels
4. We haven’t had any #tpup er give birth while #tpup ing…but there is still time.

GO PUPS!

Thanks for @KatieBeth for actually showing me what the heck #tpup was all about! I’ve been climbing the pyramid and it’s been great! Now I’m working towards the infamous 1-10-1 pyramid! Watch out, Steph!

YAY! I now look for pull-up bars (or, makeshift pull-up bars) everywhere I go!

This really is another fun way to connect, and it’s been great to have encouragement and see folks progress. HUGS, Steph and #tpup folk!

i love my #tpup team. even without a home solution, i was able to search the neighborhood we’re currently in and found a park with a sweet pull-up bar (that’s actually part of a circuit). and i’m really loving the motivation and creativity. yay @teampup

I love what Katie said. I may not break any records but it all adds up and it’s fun to be a part of something like this.
