I can do 75 lbs 1 rep max, hope I can get to 100 lbs by the end of this year, maybe not enough time but we'll see.

How strong is your weighted pull up?

I do chin ups
Why do people do pull ups? They are objectively inferior, the only difference is you removing the biceps from the equation, which is why you can't do as many
Anyways I got up to 17 chins then switched to weighted and could pretty easily do 45x5 the first time
>Why do people do pull ups?
Are you a nagger for asking this retarded question?
No, I provided an argument. You are a worthless piece of garbage for making contentless replies.
See, here is a reply with an actual argument.
To address your points, if you can do more than 5 chins I'm sure you can pull yourself up off a cliff.
As for the lats, I don't see any reason to believe pullups use more lat. They have the same function in both movements.
you have provided no argument, imbecile. You only showed off your ignorance about different type of movements, stupid fucking nagger
>I don't see any reason to believe pullups use more lat. They have the same function in both movements.
They're engaged the entire lift, and by virtue of less bicep involvement they HAVE to be stressed more in order to get up. They're not only involved in getting you out of deadhang.
I feel like people don't see that they're not the same movement pattern. Biceps aside they aren't the same movement, chins/neutral have your arms more perpendicular to your body/bar, where pull-ups are more parallel
Chin-ups actually isolate your lats better because pull-ups engage your traps more. By altering the angle it hits lats more, and some of the weight is shifted off of the traps onto the lats and biceps.
Basically, if you want to hit the entire back intensely at once do pull-ups, if you want to hit lats super hard, hit biceps, but probably need to do shrugs later then do chin-ups.
you're all fucking wrong just stop posting already
imagine doiing a pullup
now imagine doing a chinup
the same weight went up (your fat ass)
One doesnt Use Bicep
either you lost weight or a different muscle had to pull more weight
You can do fewer pullups than chinups
If your lats worked harder to compensate then you think you could do the same
One exercise is simply weaker than the other
Your lats are already doing everything they can during chinups
My lats blew up doing chins

>As for the lats, I don't see any reason to believe pullups use more lat. They have the same function in both movements.
No, you can maybe do one, I've actually had to haul ass over concrete walls and around a couple of buildings the only way you train for pull ups is with pull ups.
That's retarded. I only do chinups and once in a blue moon I'll do pullups and I can do like one or two fewer
God damn stupid people think they’re so smart
I do a set of wide grip pullups, a set of normal chin ups, then a set on the narrow grip pegs
More functional pattern. When are you going to be able to chin-up yourself off of a cliff?
Anyways removing the bicep from the equation comes with the benefit of being able to blow up your lats which cover more of your body and contribute a lot ot other lifts.
Pull ups are harder. Avoiding what's hard keeps you weak, doing what's hard makes you strong.
Squatting on a bosu ball is "harder." The only reason pullups are harder is because they use less muscle mass. Exercises that use more muscle mass are better.
There is no reason they "have to" be doing more. You can't really "make" a muscle do more that is already fully involved.
>Exercises that use more muscle mass are better.
Unless you want strong lats. If you want weak lats and weak biceps, do chinups. If you want to work biceps do curls. I'm guessing you're a dyel with spaghetti arms, so you think any exercise that isn't working the arms is a waste of time.
Incredibly asinine post
>walking on one leg is harder
>therefore it is better for locomotion
You naggers are actually clinically retarded aren't you?
Not better for locomotion, but better for fitness. You BTFO yourself, retard
this, the dude is fucking stupid af
guess I better start benching with a single play shirt so I can make it easier for myself
jfc this board is infested with absolute naggers
i can't maintain external rotation in my left shoulder through the entire range of motion so my wrist compensates which hurts like hell afterwards
>the only difference is you removing the biceps from the equation
That's the point retard. It isolates lats
This is stupid. Chins work your lats just as much, I don't understand this weird mentality that wanting to do the exercise that involves more muscle mass is unholy for some reason.
Based. The real redpill is realizing pull-ups are an isolation exercise, while chin-ups are compounds.
there's no reason not to do both. I program weighted chin up as a primary movement and weighted pull up as an assistance movement. Better upper back engagement + less bicep tendon pain when adding volume + good upper back gains
Wasted perfectly good trips on repeating myself like a retard, but the point stands
>Why do people do pull ups? They are objectively inferior, the only difference is you removing the biceps from the equation, which is why you can't do as many
stop trying to make training more complex than it is, there's almost 0 difference between pullups and chinups, except that it's impossible to tear your biceps on pullups while on chinups it's doable
ive never done weighted pullups. i kinda assumed that i was too heavy and weak enough to do them well enough that it could be considered training. i've been working up to it with lat pull downs and various rows.
then the other day when i was resting between squat sets, i deadhanged from the pullup bar just to see where i was at, and pulled myself all the way up! baffling. i look forward to screwing around with these on my next back day.
Good job anon. Pull ups are a grind for beginners. Most men can't do 1, so you're ahead of the curve.
literally what happened to me. Fat my whole life and did my first one 3 months ago. Now up to 9 reps.
when i saw the thumbnail i thought it was something other than weights between her legs
hmm
He doesn't draw that shit, and I hope he never does.
i'm at 4x6+25lbs on the fat bar, never tried a 1rm yet
i know i did pullups one time on the regular bar with a 45
My body weight plus 20kg, for now
I wish that was a cock and she was my gf and topped me with it every night
What's a good accessory to actually improve the last bit of rom on the top of a pullup. No matter what I do I can't get my 5rm past 35lbs on overhand. I'm am slightly over 200lbs btw, it's just weird because the top end of chins/neutral feels so much easier
bodyweight + 40kgs
don't know if I'll ever get 3pl8, the gap between 2pl8 which I can get 3-4 decent reps on vs 3pl8 where I can't even get half of one feels like it is huge
i do 1 set of 10 @60lbs every morning, most i ever did was 135lb 1 pull up
100lbs weighted chin up chad here
You guys 1RM your fucking weighted pullups?
Every lift can be an ego lift here.
Why not? Its basically impossible to injure yourself on and its always fun to see how strong you are once in awhile.
>Its basically impossible to injure yourself on
Your rotator cuff is at risk for injury.
Anyway, neutral grip pull ups >>> chin ups and pronated pull ups
did 37.5kg for 2 sets i think now i deloaded and did 30kg 6x6 last time... hopefully i can get to 2pl8 for 6x6... i weigh 203 lbs and bulking so its going to get harder
forgot to mention i do chin ups(also can do one arm chin up idk if anyone cares)
2 sets of 8 i did 37.5 btw
>Thought it was a girl with a FAT FUTA COCK
Fuck you, OP...also I'm such a degenerate.
Pullups are by far my best lift. I usually do 6 reps at +80 lbs. My "pr" was doing that at 175 lbs bodyweight, but I weigh 165 lbs now.
neutral grip +80kg
pull up bout +75kg
chins dont do em
71kg BW
Show fyseek pls
I got some shots on normiestagram autistic_pull_ups
Rather impressive.
What's your height? 5'9?
Any reason you decided to only pullupmax?
Also just shows you can't ever have a back that's too big.
174 cm
Probably weak since I stopped training it months ago
i just do regular pullups because i don't weight as much as the average woman.
Makoto best girl.
Currently do 6,6,5 of +82.5lbs at 159lbs bw. Highest I’ve ever pulled was +130lbs at 165lbs bw. I’ve been training chinups for several years however I’ve started focusing specifically on them since last August.
Lots of strong mfers in this thread apparently
I can easily do 25 lbs x 5 sets x 10 reps with 2 minute rest and usually supersetted with ohp or bench.100 lbs is probably my max but not sure. I've repped 2 plates in the past.
>t. 155 lb manlet
I thought that picture was a futa.
kek same
site has messed me up
I'm at 35 lbs 5x5
No idea about pull ups, but I can do 10 reps of +22kg chin ups.
That's way too big!
Oh, nvm.
ikr
I'm about 80-82kg and I can do +40kg x 3 pullups. Hoping to get to +3 plates x 1 at some point.
Was gonna put this in pounds but then I remembered it's a horrifically pathetic measurement
Anyone have that webm of that calisthenics chad where it skips frames between his former self, and post-steroids.
He walked to a bar to do deadhangs and his back looked absolutely gorgeous.
Anyone posting without a vid is cheating and doing shit reps
35x8
That shit just will not fucking go up
I have gained like 10 lbs in the last couple of months but still
160lbs is the most I've done. Rep could've been better as feet were still on the ground when I started but whatever. 220lbs here
180lb bw + 125lbs
What dumbbell exercises can I do to prepare myself for pullups? I can't do one, guess I'm too heavy / muscles too weak. I've been doing bench, OHP and rows for several months. Still can't lift myself.
inverted rows and assisted pullups
>inverted rows
Thanks. This looks good. Hopefully I can find somewhere suitable to do this.
