You can do 20 1-armed pullups? Not grabbing the wrist? I believe the world record is 17, so that's pretty good.

I'm really enjoying this site, beastskills. I can only do one of them (L-seat), but, hey, they're cool to check out.

jack arnow can do 19, either arm.

edit: either way he (she?) is lying. from all the other threads skianduniaddict starts, i'd say that he(she?) is a troll sock-puppet hybrid.

What, an L-seat? It's not hard, and certainly not compared to any of the other things on that site.

Do you mean 1 handed push-ups ? Not chin-ups or pull-ups?
