I rowed 5000m in perfect form - straight back, using my legs and extending with my back. It took me a very long time.
I completed 100 push-ups via 10 sets in perfect form, using variety of grips. It took me a very long time.
I completed 60 dips in perfect form, slow 5 second reps. It took me a very long time.
I completed 60 pull-ups in perfect form, and I had to use a rubber band assist. It took me a very long time.
Then I performed about 5 minutes worth of L-sit planks on those circular hanging things in the meanwhile. This took a very, very long time.

But I felt better about myself. And I think that's the real goal, when we are discussing fitness!

I read the whole post. It took me a very long time.
