View this post on Instagram When I first tried these plyo pull-ups I had never seen them done before. - I came up with the idea and I knew I could get at least a few and I’d get better each set I did. - I’ll never forget I was standing in a group of about 6 people and every single one of them looked at me like I was crazy. A few laughed, a few told me it was impossible and a few said not to try it because I could get hurt. - I DID THEM ANYWAY. - Now, this isn’t some super-human feat. The world wasn’t changed by me getting really good at these...but I’ll tell you what it did do...it created a chain reaction of #unsunggrinders doing these plyo pull-ups all over the world. - I’ve had hundred of videos sent to me from across the globe of people trying them; some doing them well, some being average at them and some failing miserably. But many tried something they had never done before. - THE POINT IS: EVERYTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE UNTIL SOMEBODY DOES IT. - Then people see it can be done and they are give PERMISSION to go try it themselves. - Be a light. Be someone who is willing to fall flat on your face(or back) in the pursuit of something more than average. - Be dangerous. Be immovable in your belief. BE UNAPOLOGETICALLY YOU! - You have a larger crowd of witnesses than you think. We all have a gift that needs to be brought to this world. Don’t you dare downplay yours. - Stay dangerous. - See you at the top! - SHARE THIS ? with a friend who needs to hear this message. - #Repost @monsterenergy A post shared by Michael Chandler (@mikechandlermma) on Mar 24, 2020 at 6:15am PDT
