“I hate chin ups, but I want to do them.” she declared. “You’ve got to be super strong” I chirped in remembering the many times I tried. “That’s the added frustration,” she announced. “My trainer says I’ve got the strength now, and I know I’m strong. What I don’t have is enough aggression.” Oh! This […]
