Hi Jow Forums long time no see. I am getting back into fitness and I am working on my pullups.
I can currently do 8-10 the first set, and the next two sets are about 6 each. I want to try to get to 25 pullups in one set by the end of the year, but idk if this is setting my goal to high or too low.
How many can you do /fit? Bonus points if you post back to prove your not dyel
Yes, this seems to be the way Jow Forums is...it was like that back in the days of Tinytrip, and other tripfags. Thats when I started lifting...when Zyzz was still alive. Back then people on Jow Forums actually talked about Jow Forumsness and not just meme threads.
Heres a guy doing 30 pull ups in a row, hes not even a sick cunt
Alexander Gonzalez
8 or 9 strict at 6'4" 205lbs. I'm not currently doing weighted due to a recent shoulder issue.
John Watson
I used to be able to do 20 in a single set. Now I can do barely 2 and feel like dying. I gotta get back to it, but I think another exercise is more efficient until I can at least reach 5.

No one cares about your brap hogs this is a fitness board. Or, at least it was, once upon a time.
Colton Phillips
without weight I do over 20 reps, with 25kg I manage to do 8-10, depends on a day.
Liam Thompson
Guarantee none of you do full range of motion on pull-ups. Dead hang to chin over the bar, no kipping. 90% of retards in my gym do quarter reps.
Dylan Scott
Your goal is not too high. Pullups improve quickly. Especially if you're at a low bodyweight.
You could easily improve to the tune of 2-3 pullups per week.
26 good form with that little development? doesn't seem right
Luis Young
I can do 30, but reps get greasy past 25
My suggestion to blow up your pullups is to just do 100 pullups broken into sets of 10 everyday without fail. Your back can take a beating a recovers quick
Only 6-8 , 60kg and started working out a year ago
Jason Wood
16 (maybe 14 strict?) at 90 kg 183 cm
Christopher Adams
Butthurt Marine Cairo’s bet spotted. Nobody cares about your PFT you brainwashed fuck.
Sebastian Howard
Corps...fuck me
Landon Robinson
It's chest to bar. I can put my chin over the bar while my chest is still inches away.
Christopher Russell
Obsessing over full range makes the pullup too slow. 10x 80% pullups > 6x 100% pullups (if you care about progressive growth)
Colton Bell
I do chins: 11 reps chest to bar from dead hang 7 reps with 25 lb 2 reps with 50 lb added weight for the first time over the weekend and looking forward to progressing
Height? Starting weight? Current weight? Time frame? Diet? Routine?

>5'7" manlet >195-200 lb >163 lb >around 10 months >2 months keto OMAD (down 17 lb), 1 month SS + GOMAD (up 6 lb), 2 months OMAD at maintenance, 1 month OMAD slight deficit, 4 months OMAD ~300-700 Cal deficit >1 month SS + GOMAD, 7 months full body strength training, light jump rope once a week pic related, strength progress from start to peak to present
Two years after fucking up my shoulders and i did a set of 24 last week Should get to 30 if i am properly warmed up in a couple of months End of cut so i am 81 kg
Aaron Bennett
Also five reps with 42 kg added Im more into strength than endurance
Thomas Bennett
Just did 54. 10+10+9+7(this is where I started fucking up, should've been 8)+5+4+3+3+3.
Isaac Stewart
nice scoliosis bro
Juan Carter
Only six but I'm easily 20% bodyfat maybe more
Zachary Mitchell
tfw he thinks the number of pull ups you can or can't do means anything and in anyway can correlate to overall health...
I know guys who could only do 10 pull ups, but could bench 375 for reps, do a shit ton of push ups, and run a decent 5k. I also know guys that could do 20-30 pull ups, at one time, but couldn't run for shit, bench for shit, do many push ups, or anything other than pulling themselves up on a bar.
It's not about max reps, it's about max weight. Why would max reps be relevant? They're completely dependent on your weight. A chicken legged skinny guy could do 20, meanwhile a powerlifter might only do 5, but have 5x the bicep and back mass.
Proper pullup progression is >isometrics >negatives >half range pullups >full range pullups >weighted pullups >one arm pullups
And the best number of reps is the one that progresses you fastest. I would say 5 sets of 8 before moving up to the next level.
Gavin Moore
this - same routine same max ive had a pull-up bar since 16 and place in bathroom door so i have to do some every time i go through
Alexander Clark
It's almost like pull ups, bench pressing, and running are all separate skills that can all be trained or not trained, wow what a fucking brilliant insight.
Aiden Ward
Don't forget L sit pull ups
Wyatt Hernandez
Yeah, if you can do more than 10-12 regularly it's time to add weight. If you can't do 8-10, you're not fit. You might be strong but you're not fit.
