If they even bent their knees it didn’t count. They both went from being able to do 0 pull-ups when they first started to train (being 6’2” 270 didn’t help) to doing 19 and 20 by the time they went to boot camp 9 months later. My son with 19 hates that they didn’t count his last one because he bent his knees but he shot better than his twin so he still holds that over his head
