Yo /fit/, whats the best way to increase amount of pull ups?

>>40112258
Pause reps and negatives
Also if you can already do 8 you might benefit from weighted pause reps.

i started at 3 sets of 3 with 5 mins rest in between like 7 months ago. now im at 3 sets of 7.
I basically just add 1 pullup to the first set, then next time i add one to the second set and so on.

>>40112258
Grease to the groove or Pavel ladder's methods.

>>40113397
if he can do 8 already, he doesnt need negatives anymore

>>40114208
this is the correct answer

>>40112258
How many pull ups a week are you doing?

>>40113397
>Pause reps
Do you mean to pause for a second at the bottom? Isn't that normal? Do people seriously whip them out like those crossfit gifs I've seen posted around here?

>>40113621
whats actually a slow progress. either you fat or extremally skinny or just do dem rarely and dont put effort in it

>>40113621
im a skelly and i went from 0 to 3x8 in about 3 months
you can progress faster than that mate lol

I've just recently gotten to 20 pullups, and this is what i found really helped. Do 2 or 3 reps, then do a rep and pause at the top. Then repeat until you can't do anymore. Also be sure to be getting enough total reps in. I do minimum 6 sets. Weighted pullups have helped me but I typically don't go above weight where I cannot get a minimum of 4 reps. Hope it helps, get those wings and fly

b-b-but this goes against greasing the groove!

Great advice m8

Count backwards from 9.

>>40114248
negatives with weight would help him. my curls stagnated for months. started doing negatives with much heavier weight and now they're increasing weekly

>>40115003
the post didnt say anything about weighted negatives, but yes that would help

>>40114422
No pause at the top. So you're like combining a negative with a regular rep

>>40112258

Cut down some reps and add more sets

So if you do 3x8 3 times a week, try doing 6x6 3 times a week, do it for a week and try again your set for 10 reps

>>40116622
Thank you. I'm still torn about greasing to the groove or going until failure but I suppose either one is better than nothing.

>>40116900
yea, try em both out, there's no right or wrong way.
i like greasing the groove better personally
going to failure just causes me to have sets like 15 reps, then 11, then 6 and im not a fan

>>40114510
key phrase here is 'im a skelly'
bodyweight exercises are much easier when you're light

>>40117245
strong cope.

>>40114972
I mean a stupid fucking question deserves a stupid fucking response. How else do you think you get better at something???

>>40112258
Add weight, aim for 4-5 reps. Easy

>>40117245
are you mad that my twink ass can do more pullups than you or something, lmao

>>40112258
Do 1 set max reps 3 times a day, every 4 days, then rest 1 day. I've gotten from 14 to 27 clean pull-ups.

>>40112258
lose bodyweight

Look up armstrong pullup program. It really worked for me. Went from 2 reps to 21 in ~1.5 months. 5 days/week, around 10-20 minutes per day.

>>40120252
height/weight?

>>40118672
How many sets?

>>40117245

I'm a fattie and it's taken me 2 months to go from 0 to sets of 2. I started with -70 lbs on the assisted pull up machine. I am confident I'll be doing sets of 5+ after another month.

>>40112258
It's a mental plateau. Start counting at 3 or 4 so when you finish 8 reps you've counted to 11 or 12. Worked for me to get past 10
This helped me get past 10. It's

WOW FIT IF YOU ONLY COULD TELL ME A EASY WAY TO INCREASE MY STRENGTH

how about you stop being a little bitch :^)

I can do 14 max. The fuck do Navy seals have a 20 pull up recommendation man. Crazy.
