PUEBLO, Colo. (KOAA) — A Pueblo man known for pushing his body past the limits is getting ready to take on another world record challenge this weekend!
Frankie Sagona is a Pueblo native who gained international attention in 2023 after completing more than 1,000 chin-ups in one hour. Now, he's preparing to raise the bar even higher.
The challenge starts Saturday at 9 a.m. at the Zestful Balance gym, which is located near The Walter Brewing Company.
Anyone can show up to watch him go for the following three chin-up world records:
- most chin-ups in eight hours
- most chin-ups in 12 hours
- most chin-ups in 24 hours
Organizers say they hope the event inspires people to see what's possible through hard work and resilience.
