Well, Larson and her trainer Jason Walsh decided that wasn&#8217;t quite intense enough and upped the ante again in a clip the <strong>Captain Marvel<\/strong> star shared on Instagram today. This time, Larson jumps up into a pull-up position, bends her knees towards her chest, and places a weighted chain across her legs to add extra weight. As Walsh says, as he&#8217;s piling the chains onto her lap: &#8220;Why not?&#8221; (I mean, I can think of several reasons.)<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s not even the toughest part. No, that would be when Walsh tells Larson to lower down in increments, first dropping so her arms are at 90-degree angles, then down a little bit more, then straightening her legs to drop the chains, before dropping back to the floor. You can even see Larson&#8217;s arms shaking as she tries to stabilize on the bar. &#8220;Not so bad!&#8221; Walsh says at the end. Yeah, OK, speak for yourself, because my arms were shaking just watching! I&#8217;m with Tracee Ellis Ross, who said Larson is &#8220;unreal&#8221; in the comments section of the post. Yep, that about sums it up. Check out the Larson&#8217;s arm-burning variation above, and if you&#8217;re inspired to start holding some pull-ups of your own, here are a few beginner exercises to get you there, no weighted chains involved.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>View this post on Instagram A post shared by Brie Larson (@brielarson) Remember when Brie Larson just casually held a pull-up for one entire minute?
