Is supinated grip easier than pronated grip? Maybe that's my problem, I've just been doing pronated grip

Thanks for the replies though guys it seems like you don't have to pulldown bodyweight in order to do pullups (which seems physics defying but idk). Hopefully I can start doing pullups soon :D

supinated grip is far easier because it allows your biceps to fully activate, huge difference

btw a pull up with a pronated grip is a chin up

One week id go light on lat pulldown (both close and wide grip) and do 5 sets of 15 reps and do 5 sets of 8 on chinups and wide grip pull ups
Then the next week go heavy 5x5 wide and close on lat pulldown and do 5 sets of 10-failure on chinups and pullups

That makes a lot of sense. I'll try and do some chin ups next time I'm in the gym!

10 at best.

I've never tried as much as possible, used to do 85kg x 12 when I actually did them.
