Re: Lets come up with a test of basic fitness.
i feel like i need to say a word about pullups ... if you cant do pullups, you can not (in any sense of the word) consider yourself to be physically fit. Pullups (and pushups) are one of the most BASIC movements of the human body ... and unless you can pull up your own body weight, how can you call yourselves fit?
Sure, pullups are easier for people who are weigh less, but so is almost every other element of physical fitness (running, pushups, etc). If you cant do a pullup, get off your butt, stop bench pressing every other day, and start doing pullups (assisted if need be).
