When I saw the title I was thinking, I didn't know that was a thing. Good to see it's new and not something that I somehow missed. I recall seeing that douche from 6 pack abs on Youtube do some terrible pull-ups and then call it a world record. I'm not sure if that guy is even still around.

In this cross fit era I have a feeling there will be some horrible form here. I'm sure we have all seen these "warriors" in the gym.
