:D I have no idea why, but somehow I find inching towards a BW pullup far more satisfying and encouraging than setting/meeting a lifting ___lbs goal.

Maybe because it's so absolute? No equipment, no nothing, either you can pull yourself up on your own or you can't.

Also, it's really great for showing off. *g*
