I've been doing 4 sets of 6 reps with 18kg (15kg + 3kg belt), should i do more reps and lower the weight? I could do 4x8~10 with 10kg, but i don't know if it would be as effective.
Anyone got a good routine/guide for doing more pullups? Other than just doing more like an actually structured thing with negatives and all that shit.
Been doing pull-ups and dips nearly exclusively while I cut and I’m obsessed with them. I’ve been making progress but I wanna be able to do a fuck load of them.
Carter Jones
Why would you want to do more pull ups? Just add weight and do 5~10 reps.
There is no reason to do more than 12 body weight pull ups. Are you a woman?
Ryan Scott
that guy has shit form, you shouldn't be reaching your chin over the bar, thats cheating.
Luis Long
>shoulders shrugged wtf
Oliver Wright
add weight until you find your 2-rep max
then add that to your body weight to find your max pull. 90% of this should be your 3-5 rep working weight for the 2 weeks. After that add weight again until you find your new higher 2-rep max and repeat
t. rock climber who used this progression to increase my weighted pullup from 40% bodyweight to 135%
Michael Lopez
>he counts the belt
Jacob Thomas
yup, just another dud trying to egolift.
boys, if you haven't heard it today again, with every lift focus on good form, mind/muscle connection and full rom. ego lifting is how you get hurt and don't see results.
In 6’2” cutting 243lbs as of today. I can do 7 max now. In a workout I’ll do more and more each time, and as I lose weight and do more I’m definitely getting better at them. Doing over 60 pull-ups total right now. First few sets are 5 reps, then I can only do 3 reps each for the rest until the last few I can do 1-2. I guess with all this fat I’m technically training weighted pullups so I should see pullup gains when I’m done cutting
Jack Lewis
>135% bw pull up bruh post wings
Connor Powell
My gym had a really big problem when I brought my AR in
I would suggest you guys just use plates
Christopher Cox
I'll try to take a pic tonight. I'm 145lbs and have been climbing ~20 hours a week for 5 years.
Nolan Thomas
close grip, wide grip, sternum, negatives, assisted, archer, underarm
Caleb Williams
How the fuck do you even do this
Brody Jackson
i typically just do 5x5
I also do chinups instead because my biceps are weaker compared to the rest of my upper body
Henry Powell
my best is 136lbs added (i weigh 195lbs) for one rep, neutral grip.Have gotten 95lbs added for 3 reps too. most pullups in a row ever was 23. ama
Chase James
>most pullups in a row ever was 23. ama
can you do a one armed pullup, and if so, what sort of criteria should you meet? is it mostly hitting a certain number of pullups + low bf%?
Bentley Ward
More than 3 reps is cardio.
Jonathan Howard
My best with the most weight is 5 reps with 120lb @210 my best reps is 90lb for 10
Nathan Murphy
Use a neutral grip. Do some heavy bent over rows before you do body weight pullups.
Elijah Taylor
Nope, cant do a one armed pullup. I'm 6'1, 195lbs, I would guess I'd have to lose a bunch of weight to make that more feasible.
I have messed around with one arm pullup stuff, trying negatives, or band assisted reps. I had a better experience messing around with that stuff when my weighted pullup was my focus. I actually did 23 pullups during a different period of training where I was fucking around with band resisted pullups. Doesn't make a lot of sense, you would expect band resisted pullups (accommodating resistance) to make my pullups explosive and fast, but not really help my reps THAT much. One day I just tested my max and hit 23. If I had to really guess, the band resisted pullups helped me do the entire motion faster, which made me have to spend less time on the bar overall. Doing 20+ pullups slowly would leave me on the bar for 45-60 seconds. Being able to rep them out fast probably let me sneak in a hefty amount of reps in 30-40 seconds.
Adam Young
I've done 20 with a dead hang pause between each rep. You probably didn't do that, though.
Unless you do the dead hang between each rep, you might as well be doing CrossFit
Logan Wood
ok
Nolan Miller
>6ft - 155lbs/70kg >6 sets of pull-ups/chin-ups with two 45 plates
Carson Sanders
No, it's not okay and they probably weren't legit strict reps and I'm better than you at pullups
Nolan White
yeah they probably couldve been better, maybe you are
Logan Hernandez
Same boat. Around 25bw @ 180lb, and 90lbx5.
Can't even do the negative on a 1 arm pullup. For some reason I'm only strong with both arms working together.
Benjamin Sanchez
Can you one arm row 180lbs? If the answer is no, then you're not going to be able to do a 1 armed pullup.
>only strong with 2 arms
You sound like a fucking retard.
Cameron Allen
There is nothing more gay about this picture than not having control of your weapon. I don't care if it's unloaded, this type of shit is top faggotry.
Jeremiah Morales
no need for negativity fren
Brayden Cox
What do I do about a wrist pain that goes down my arm and hurts during a pull-up?
I am reluctantly going to stop training and I have been working extensors in a bucket of sand. Could be placebo but I feel like the arm is more comfortable after doing that.
Benjamin Parker
Stop doing all supinated pulling and curling for a while
Lincoln White
I do neutral grip because I've got one of those bars that's like wide, narrow and neutral. It's basically the only thing I have been doing lately.
