It is quite "incredible". In fact, it's likely BS. Alicia Weber's world record is 39 pull-ups in the one-minute category. For the 3-min category, Alicia's world record back in 2008 was 57 (but she has since increased it).

(Ms Weber owns every pull-up record on the books in the women's categories, up until you get into the 6-hours (or more) categories.)

Maybe this random former gymnast unknowingly set a world record without any training or trying... or maybe a proud dad is boasting a bit much.

My thoughts ..... My daughters did gymnastics , one tops out at 5'2" and can pop off ...... Could pop off 24 pull up (hands facing away) when she was in her best shape. I would like a link to a video of the girl doing 30 pull ups since she popped off 51. Hahahhaa.

First...she wasn’t timed...second, she competed at international level (no training?,random gymnast?). She was competeing at the time...Her coaches were two retired Olympian gymnasts....

I owned a gymnastics facility and we have produced several “Elite” gymnasts...

Thier warm-ups each day would have been termed “record breaking” by your definition.....

You know nothing, yet you call BS.....

The fact is, you are just a “jerk”

Couple things I got from a quick check on Google. First, those records are for numbers of repetition per period of time (1 mins, 5 mins, and so on), and Webber record for 30 mins was 419 pullups (and 61 squats) made on January 2011. Meanwhile, nevergore did not say anything about time limit. In fact, from the description, it might have taken a while since the daughter was pretending a bit.

Second, nevergore's daughter was a level-10 gymnast. It's just where the elite gymnasts are before they entered national or national competitions and become the 'real elites'. I google level-10 gymnastic skills, and it doesn't seem what nevergore said to be exaggerated.
