Australian woman performs 733 pull-ups in one hour

An Australian bodybuilder broke a Guinness World Record that had stood for nearly a decade when she completed 733 pull-ups in one hour.
Jade Henderson, 32, averaged more than 12 pull-ups a minute to break the record of 725 that was set by fellow Australian Eva Clarke in 2016.
I decided to start training for the pull up world record because I liked the idea of doing something that nobody else has ever done. I also wanted to see what my mind and body were physically capable of,” Henderson told Guinness World Records.
The athlete said she initially planned to go for the 24-hour version of the record, but an injury during training led her to change her plans.
“I did 3,500 pull ups in 12 hours and tore my bicep. I had a partial tear of the bicep tendon and muscle. I had to rest my arm for about six weeks before I was able to do pull ups again,” she said.
Henderson settled on the one-hour record to prevent any further injuries.
“I didn’t have a set number that I was aiming for,” she said. “I knew it was going to be tough to beat the previous record of 725, so I was just aiming to get a couple more reps than that.”
