According to Guinness World Records, Olivia Vinson, 34, an Australian woman, nearly doubled the previous record, setting a Guinness record for chin-ups.
The previous 24-hour women's chin-up record was 4081 set by Poland's Paula Gorgo in 2021.
Olivia responded to the challenge by saying, "My husband, who works as a fitness coach, offered me a 24-hour chin-up."At first, he laughed it off, saying it was ridiculous."."
But after checking the records, she pondered the possibility once again.
She said "The previous record was 4081 times, but at first I thought 'It's absolutely impossible" But when I thought about it a little more and calculated it, I thought maybe it could be possible.'
After three months of training, Olivia took on her first challenge in September 2024.
However, after 12 hours, he injured his bicep tendon in his left arm and was no longer able to do chin-ups.
She said of the time, "'Tendon in her left arm has been damaged in about 12 hours. From that moment on, I couldn't do a single chin-up", he explained.
After two months of recovery, she began training again, and after months of intense practice and a 12-hour test challenge, she was finally ready to break the record.
At the scene of the challenge, Olivia set the alarm to go off every 45 seconds and hung a schedule next to her, writing down the number of chin-ups to be done in each round.
But despite thorough preparations, the challenge process has not been smooth.
Over the course of 19 hours, he began to feel severe nausea. He also felt extremely tired. There were also concerns that the body could hold out until the end during the break.
But she pushed the limits with her strong will and finally broke the record.
She performed a chin-up five times a minute on average for 24 hours, cheering after the 7079th.
She says the challenge has changed her outlook on life.
"At first, I did what I thought was impossible""She thinks that human beings are beyond their limits. The world record is a clear indicator of human potential"
"I'm going to once again doubt everything I thought was impossible in the future," he added.
Meanwhile, the record for 24-hour chin-ups in the men's category is 11,707 set by Oh Yo-han of Korea on September 29, 2024.
