Re: 385

I never used gloves in training, only in my one hour attempt. Then I
used open fingered cycling gloves. Definately not the best. I got
big blisters on the ends of my fingers at about 45 minutes of
pulling.

I think an interesting strategy would be to hold back and make the
last 10 minutes produce more pullups than the earlier 10 minute
segments. We have speculated that this would produce a higher
result, but who has the courage to try it?
