Nobody needs 95 since they have 100

What a cool visualization of a mean curve.

Also love the outlier of 100 that you kinda can immediately guess what's happening.

Hey man, what'd that curve ever do to you? Was nice to me!

Made me feel weak! Called me "below average! Can you believe it?!

surely this distribution should have some skew?

Once you can lift over 100, you reach enlightenment and never miss the hole.

Can finally hit the hole at 100 but can’t get it up.

Is this pounds, grams, or amu's?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Id guess lb. Goes up to 120 which would be a bit heavy for kg but who knows - I have seen machines that go up that high but usually they cap out more like 80kg or so

[–] berryjam 22 points 8 months ago (1 children)

120 is nothing for lb so I think this is kg

[–] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yeah maybe you’re right 10lb on a pulldown would be a bit weird wouldn’t it

[–] arin 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

They even have modular 5lb, they do start this low in my experience

[–] berryjam 4 points 8 months ago

I checked at the gym today, our machine does start at 10lb 🤔

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago

Definitely done 120 kg and beyond on pull downs. If you're a heavier dude, that's still easier than chin ups.
