Chin ups are better m8.

Pull up is a really unnatural movement.

>>41771046

>hanging off cliff in chinup grip

They are just massively overvalued because muh functional strength like >>41771069

are you doing some sort of bastardized pull-ups? are you someone whose been lifting >1 year and cant add 20kg to his belt while doing pull-ups? because pull-ups builds back effectively you gigantic faggot

>>41771069

Naturally you wouldn't be hanging off a cliff, whether pull up or chin up, dumbfuck.

Unless you're one of those retarded tourists who take cliffhanger selfies.

>>41771075
NOTHING is a fucking MEME. People are misusing this word to make people self-conscious about their lifting habits.

Don't let anybody tell you that something you do or want to do is wrong aslong as it suits to what you want to achieve.

>t. someone who rack pulls with a snatch grip at knee level just for the sake of it

>rack pulls with a snatch grip
how big are your traps?

>>41771295

>Rack pulls from knee level
Don't give advice to anyone on this board anymore.

>>41771396
It's not, actually. It was designed for people to learn the compound lifts and proper form while building a decent strenght base. You should just go and lift instead of lurking /fit/ and rehearsing /fit/-phrases.

>>41771127
>naturally you wouldn't be hanging off a cliff

Found the guy who only lifts (if that) as a "hobby."

>>41771422

>>41771320

of course it works, any type of program works. But only male to t-rex trannies should use it

>>41771422

>>41771265
>fell for the nothing is a meme meme

>>41771423
ss as a program doesnt teach shit

people do the program with garbage form, because they cant be bothered to fix it or ask someone competent and snap their shit up or dont do accessories

and no, watching "rippetoe shows how to squat twice" is not enough to have good squat form

with that being said, its not a bad program per se, just done badly more often than not

>>41771046
>did chinups yesterday
>try how much i can do weighted
>do one grind rep and veeeery slow negative

the fuck

>>41771445
Optimum should be just below knees to mid-shin level for rack pulls. However depth entirely depends on what you want to archieve. I just enjoy rack pulls from knee to just below knee level and wide grip is also something I wanted to try out.

Just experiment and look what you enjoy most and have most progress with.

Lats are over-developed in comparison with upper back. Used to do heavy rowing and nowadays do alot of weighted pullups.
