My goal of to be able to do a respectable number of single arm chin-ups (like 5 reps) without needing to hold my forearms. I'm 5"10 (king manlet), 170lbs like 12% bf.
What's the best way of getting there? I figured weighted chins. Currently doing 3 sets of weighted chin-ups twice a week at the beginning of my upper workouts.
I can do like 6-7 reps with good form with a 20KG plate (44lb plate), 3 rest with 1.5 plates and only 1 strict rep with 2 plates.
Anyone able to do these got anytips?

From my experience it has very little to do with regular chinup strength.
How many one arm chinups can you do? I'm guessing 0.
I rarely practise them and I can usually do 2 of them with my right arm.
But I also am able to do 40kg weighted chinups for more than 10 reps.
Weighted chins are food but a peogression will help a lot, just ro get stronger at the form. Things like uneven chinups or negatives of the one arm. 4chan hat way you can more gradually move to obe arm rather than cutting one arm out all at once.

Forgot to actually give you some advice on that post.
do one arm chinup negatives after your regular workouts, or even at home if you have a pullup bar, but don't kill yourself doing this.
do more than 3 sets of chinups, or just do 1-3 sets but do them everyday of the week for like 2 months.
I felt the greatest gains on chinup from doing rest pause bodyweight work, it increased my WEIGHTED chinup strength and also bodyweight max rep endurance.
Haven't tried in a few weeks. Last time I tried I could only get to the bar but chin wasn't really over it. So yeah ZERO.

What the fuck am I trying to read here mate
Do you mean just body weight chin-ups everyday? Won't that compromise my recovery? Or will my body just adapt?
Thanks for the tips dude.

>won't that compromise my recovery
I used to think like that too and it made me progress slow as fuck man.
Basically you might not recover from workout to workout, but you are training so much all the time that even with fatigu buildup throghout the weeks you will gain so much fitness and performance and muscle size that it doesn't make a difference, obviously there's a limit in which fatigue literally stops you from progressing but you're at a level where training everyday would help.
also, don't kill yourself on any specific workout, just do like 1-3 sets everyday at the end of your training.

Thanks bros
Gonna give those extra chins a go.
Also those one arm towel chin-ups look like a good transitioning excercise - thanks anon.
