So the other day at my gym I decided to try my luck and go on one of the chin-up machines they have there. I saw a bunch of guys on it before me, so I figured, why not?
Today my back is reminding me why not. Ow. I didn't even manage to do one and just kind of hung there for a while, flailing pathetically, and all I got for my trouble was at least one pulled muscle in my shoulders. It's already feeling better, but that was embarrassing.
Next time I'll try to put the bravado aside. Although to their credit none of the other people there made fun of me, which was a feat considering I probably looked quite silly hanging there, basically a live-action version of this comic.
