Cool, so your brother is a Marine and both you and your brother will someday be Marines. That's awesome, the whole family will be Marines. For the flexed arm hang tip, no problem just give my way a shot and see which one is easier. When I do it with my arms apart my time is split in half so hopefully your time will double if you do it my way. Same here, I would like to be able to do pull ups also..Haha I have to get somebody to help lift me up to do the arm hang. I wish your brother lots of luck in Iraq. I know damn well I wouldn't be able to handle infantry, but I do wish they'd let women be tankers...That'd just kick so much ass riding around in that tank and blowin stuff up. Same here, I've always loved the military also and have been wanting to be a Marine since I was little.
