Thanks mate. Took your advice and split the chins up into heaps of sets. Took me around three hours, including a break in between to make dinner. Next stop: 150 reps in a day.

I'll be here and still talking trash :) Only difference is if you make the lift I'll probably fall back on my stock of yo momma jokes ;)

Next day you'll know if you overdid it, so stepping up in stages makes sense. But when you split up into small sets you can do massive numbers and it feels great.
