American Man Breaks Chin-Up World Record With 1,010 Reps In One Hour

Colorado's Frank Sagona shattered the Guinness World Record for the most chin-ups in one hour with 1,010 reps, overcoming a back muscle strain.

A 45-year-old man from Colorado, USA, showcased his physical prowess by shattering the Guinness World Record for the highest number of chin-ups completed within a single hour. Frank Sagona accomplished an impressive 1,010 chin-ups during the allotted time, surpassing Stephen Hyland's longstanding record of 993, which had remained unbroken since 2011.

According to the Guinness World Record, multiple people have attempted to break Stephen's record over the past decade, but none have been successful until now. As per the rules of this record, an underhand grip must be used and proper form must be maintained throughout, with the body raised until the chin is above the level of the bar, then lowered until the arms are straight.

"This is the ultimate test of strength and mind over matter," Frank said.
